My initial research for transplantation led me to Dr. Bradley Limmer whose father (Dr. B.L. Limmer) developed the technique of follicular unit micrografting. I was afraid of getting the dreaded plugs you always hear about so it seemed obvious to call the clinic that pioneered a solution for that unfortunate surgical effect.
My initial phone consultation with "Dr. Brad" was encouraging. He examined pictures of my hair (I had emailed) and set what seemed like very realistic goals for my first surgery. I didn't feel like he was selling me anything. In fact, I kept trying to hint that I wanted more hair. He encouraged me to moderate and reminded me I could always come back after a year or so if I wanted more hair. This seemed reasonable (being it was my first surgery and I didn't know how my hair loss would progress) so we agreed to around 1700 grafts.
The day of surgery was chock full of nerves and excitement. Dr. Limmer's staff made it seem like a cakewalk. I watched a movie, drank a lot of soft drinks, got a free lunch (courtesy of the clinic) and had plenty of interesting conversations with the staff.
A year later I am enjoying the results to their fullest (check out my pictures) and I've just finished my second hair transplant surgery at the Limmer Clinic. I highly recommend Dr. Limmer to anyone interested in hair transplantation.
