I just got an FUE hair transplant with them and I am very happy with how the procedure went. Dr. Nadimi Was great. She really took the time to go over the whole procedure, the pros and cons and answer any questions I had. Nothing felt rushed. If you are considering a transplant, I would recommend Chicago Hair Institute.

Popular Hair Loss Treatments

FUE Hair Transplantation

A follicular unit extraction (FUE) procedure offers patients negligible scarring, quick recovery, and most important of all, improved self-confidence. Using individual groupings of hair follicles that contain one to four hairs, FUE extracts hair follicles from the donor area and transplants them to the areas on your scalp that need additional coverage. The advanced FUE technique effectively minimizes scarring on the scalp, allowing patients to wear shorter hairstyles following treatment.

Hair Loss Retreatment

Patients who have undergone a previous hair transplant may not be satisfied with their hair growth, especially if the doctor used large grafts of follicles or another outdated technique. Dr. Konior and Dr. Nadimi have extensive experience correcting poorly executed transplants, especially those performed more than a decade ago. Techniques and technology for extracting and placing hair follicles have improved by leaps and bounds during the last 10 years. If you are unhappy with the results of a previous hair transplant, contact our Chicago, IL, office to learn more about your options.

Hair Loss Treatment for Women

Women with thinning hair may suffer from feelings of self-consciousness. Our Chicago hair loss specialists will identify the cause of thinning hair by performing a thorough medical evaluation before determining whether a restoration procedure will be an effective treatment. If surgery is a viable solution, our doctors can transplant healthy follicles from an area of your scalp that is not affected by thinning hair. We offer our female patients completely individualized treatment plans to address their unique concerns.

Treating Everyone With Respect and Compassion Patients Share Their Positive Experiences

I just got an FUE hair transplant with them and I am very happy with how the procedure went. Dr. Nadimi Was great. She really took the time to go over the whole procedure, the pros and cons and answer any questions I had. Nothing felt rushed. The surgery itself was not as bad as I was anticipating. The only part that was uncomfortable was receiving the numbing injections but after I could not feel anything. The pain afterwards was very minimal. The Valium they give you does make you drowsy so I was out of it for about half of the time of the operation itself. It’s not cheap, it’s $9 per graft and I got 1,000. If you are considering a transplant, I would recommend Chicago Hair Institute.

I absolutely love this place! I had a scar towards the front of my hairline that bothered me and Dr. Nadimi was able to cover it and perfect my hairline! Anya, the nurse, was extremely spectacular and made me feel so beautiful for every checkup I had. And I can’t forget about Karen, the patient coordinator! She was so patient with me and made my arrival super easy. These ladies make such a great team. I’m so happy I choose this place! <3

Feminization With Staged Advancement and Follicular Unit Grafting

This patient requested surgical correction of a very high frontal hairline. The specific goals were to create a natural, feminine look and to improve the appearance of the brows. We planned a staged repair and began by performing a pretrichial to advance the existing hairline forward and to enhance the shape of the brows. We then used trichophytic hairline repair to encourage hair growth through the frontal incision line. Six months later, we completed the final stage of restoration with ultra-refined follicular unit grafting.

After Feminization with Staged Advancement and Follicular-Unit Grafting — **Before Grafts** — Notice the prominent forehead caused by a high hairline. A lower hairline would help achieve the desired appearance.

"I highly recommend Dr. Nadimi."

"Dr. Nadimi is AMAZING! I recently saw Dr. Nadimi for fillers and botox. I felt comfortable with her from beginning to end. She took her time with me during the initial consultation and answered all of my questions. During the treatment, she was extremely gentle, I didn't feel the injections at all. She made sure that she addressed all of my concerns while maintaining a natural and youthful look. No one, not even my closest friends and family knows I had anything done. Yet, I have been getting so many compliments on how rested and refresh I look! I highly recommend Dr. Nadimi and her practice, I will definitely be coming back!"

Facial Cosmetic Procedures Advanced Techniques to Refine Your Appearance

Because the hair serves as a frame for the face, hair restoration and facial treatments often go hand in hand. This is particularly effective when treating women's hair loss. Dr. Nadimi performs a full range of cosmetic facial treatments, including injectable treatments, facelifts, neck lifts, lip lifts, chin augmentations, upper and lower eyelid surgery, forehead reduction, and rhinoplasties.

Facelift and Neck Lift

The sagging, wrinkled skin that accompanies aging can negatively impact the definition of your facial features, causing you to appear older than you feel. A facelift or neck lift can help achieve a more youthful look by removing excess skin and smoothing the wrinkles that result from sun exposure, squinting, and frowning. We use refined techniques for negligible scarring and often combine these two types of lifts for streamlined treatment.

Explore Facelifts

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Lift)

Bags under your eyes and sagging eyelids can both cause you to appear aged and compromise your field of vision. Blepharoplasty can help you look more alert, rested, and rejuvenated by tightening the skin in your upper and lower eyelids. When combined with our other cosmetic procedures, a blepharoplasty can dramatically turn back the clock.

Explore Blepharoplasty

Rhinoplasty

If the proportions of your nose disrupt the balance of your facial features, a rhinoplasty may be the solution. This procedure corrects cosmetic concerns, but it can also improve breathing if you have suffered nasal trauma or a deviated septum. If you are unhappy with how your nose looks or have breathing difficulties, our doctors can perform a rhinoplasty to transform the way you look and feel.

Explore Rhinoplasty

Forehead Reduction

Many of our patients, especially women, are curious about whether anything can be done to lower their hairline. Fortunately, our Chicago doctors can minimize the size of your forehead and create a more attractive frame for your face. Dr. Nadimi trained in forehead reduction under the direction of an international specialist and can provide beautiful effects. A hair transplant can be combined with forehead reduction surgery to help patients achieve their desired results.

Surgeries That Can Make a Difference We Change Lives at the Chicago Hair Institute

I give the highest marks possible to Dr. Sahar Nadimi and her staff. I'm from out of state and found the Chicago Hair Institute during a Google search, and I'm glad I did. Dr. Nadimi is a very skilled surgeon, and I found her communication skills before, during, and after surgery, to be of the highest order. The staff put me at ease throughout, and they allowed me to come in on as many days post surgery for washing or check up as I wanted. I felt very taken care of. The surgery I received was an FUT hair restoration, mainly of the front hairline, to cover an old scar, along with a few additional grafts in the crown region. My experience at the Chicago Hair Institute Clinic was A+++, and I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone. Thank you.

Dr Nadimi and all the staff here are exceptional! Very friendly environment for nervous patients like my 6 and 8 year old sons who required stitches on their faces. Dr Nadimi and the nurses/medical assistants went above and beyond to distract my boys to make it a seamless experience for us. You are also not rushed here like with most practices these days - Dr Nadimi gives you all the time you need to discuss all questions and concerns.
