Dr. Ken Anderson, MD, ABFPRS, ABOTO, the founder and director of the Anderson Hair Sciences Center is proud to announce that he and his surgical team have completed their 100th ARTAS robotic hair restoration procedure on August 29th, 2014.

The founder and director of the Anderson Hair Sciences Center, Dr. Ken Anderson, MD, ABFPRS, ABOTO, is proud to announce thathe and his dedicated team of surgical technicians have completed the first and only 100 ARTAS robotic hair restoration procedures in the State of Georgia.

The ARTAS Robotic Hair Restoration Surgery System performs the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) method of hair restoration with a level of precision and efficiency that simply cannot be matched by a human being. It allows Dr. Anderson to perform hair restoration procedures without using a scalpel, and without leaving behind the tell-tale linear scar that is associated with a traditional linear strip harvest procedure.

Dr. Ken Anderson, MD, is very first and only physician in the State of Georgia to offer patients this cutting-edge technology. He performed the very first robotic hair restoration surgical procedure in September of 2013. Additionally, he was the first surgeon in the USA to perform a full FUE hair transplant, publishing the results of this groundbreaking case in April of 2004. Dr. Anderson has been performing hair restoration exclusively since joining a busy and dedicated hair restoration surgery practice in Beverly Hills, California in 2004. In 2011, Dr. Anderson received the Okinawa Award for his presentation about the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedure, which was delivered by the Japan Society for Clinical Hair Restoration in Tokyo, Japan.

Dr. Anderson is unique in the field of hair restoration surgery. He is the only board-certified facial plastic surgeon in the world who has practiced exclusively hair restoration for over a decade…”Hair Restoration” is not on a menu of other procedures the practice offers. US regulations permit this procedure to be done by technicians and several hair restoration specialists will perform 3 or more surgeries a day. At the Anderson Hair Restoration Center, Dr. Anderson performs only ONE hair restoration surgeryper dayto allow Dr. Anderson and his entire team to focus on one patient for the day, and make sure to give the attention and care each patient deserves.

They have officially completed their 100th hair restoration procedure on August 29th, 2014 using the world famous ARTAS robotic system. This revolutionary device is a state-of-the-art, surgeon-controlled medical device that safely and accurately extracts one single follicle at a time from the back and sides of the scalp. Every other FUE device, including the NeoGraft machine, is a hand-held instrument that a technician uses, with all of the associated inherent human error and variability. Because the ARTAS system is a robot, each and every graft is surgically extracted without human error and without human variability in the extraction process. The ARTAS robotic hair restoration procedure has become very popular because it is a minimally invasive hair restoration treatment that does not require any plugs, scalpels, or stitches. In 2013 the ARTAS devicewonGold at the 26th Annual Edison Awards, which is an international award ceremony that honors innovation.

The consult, quote, and transplant day were all seamless. I had gone to a consult at one of the “hair transplant chains” and did not feel comfortable, so went to Dr. Anderson. The outcome is much better than I had expected with just one transplant. I am so pleased; I am going back for a second round to add even more fullness.

Dr. Anderson was great. He answered all my questions before the procedure. And performed the procedure with great care and precision. I didn’t have hardly any pain or discomfort during the procedure or after. I would highly recommend Dr. Anderson to anyone.

I am only 10 days out since my procedure. So far I am very pleased with the results. I didn’t experience hardly any pain, swelling or bruising. My transplant and donor areas are healing nicely. Everyone at Dr. Anderson’s office was wonderful. They answered all my questions and took great care of me while I was there. It isn’t cheap but I believe you get what you pay for. So far I am extremely happy and would highly recommend Dr. Anderson and his staff to anyone considering a hair transplant.

I was very satisfied with the experience. Dr. Anderson was both knowledgeable and personable. The staff was proficient and made every effort to make me feel comfortable. Highly recommended to anyone who is considering the procedure. Aftercare instructions were thorough and easy to understand. Dr. Anderson made himself eminently available throughout the process.

Dr. Anderson was very kind and compassionate. He was very professional and put me at ease throughout the entire procedure. I found his technique to be far superior to any of the other 5 physicians I visited.

I am a 48 year-old physician who had a prior procedure at a different facility in Atlanta. This time I chose Dr. Anderson’s clinic and the experience ,by far, exceeded all of my expectations. He and his staff were very professional and accommodating. I would highly recommend him to all of those interested in pursuing hair restoration.

Dr. Ken is an exceptional surgeon. So good, in fact, that the surgeon who removed my stitches in Hong Kong after my procedure said, “You must have paid a ton for this procedure; the surgeon did a fantastic job.”

Dr. Anderson and his team were recommended to me through a friend, although I live in Florida. From start to finish, they were outstanding and far exceeded my expectations. The correspondence pre-procedure and post-procedure made the process much smoother. I am 10 months post-transplant and the results are amazing. I would unequivocally recommend Dr. Ken Anderson and his team.

Dr. Lee and his staff are great! I was hesitant and doubtful at first of getting a hair transplant surgery. I was unsure of the results for the price. After many days and months spent researching I decided to go with Anderson center for hair and Dr. lee. Dr. Lee was very compassionate and understanding when dealing with the patients needs/expectations my experience was great the procedure was almost painless and the after care instructions are clear. Dr lee is very patient and made sure all my questions were answered. My experience was great and I’m excited to see how my new hairline grows in!

Dr. Lee and his staff did a great job. I was especially impressed by his knowledge, professionalism, and – most of all – honesty. This is the first time I’ve ever had any kind of elective surgery, so I did quite a lot of research on who I wanted go to for this procedure. Anderson Center for Hair was very highly recommended on many different websites, and Dr. Lee and his staff did not let me down. I’m very thankful for what he and his team did for me, and I would highly recommend him for any hair restoration surgery.

I recently had my second hair replacement surgery with Dr Lee at Anderson Hair. My first surgery 12 months prior was so successful I went back for more – after all, more is better when it comes to hair, right?

These folks are friendly and professional. Keisha, Kia and David make up an awesome team. I was made to feel comfortable, welcomed, and relaxed. The team cares about the quality of the work they do, and it shows. They also do a great job of following up several times after the surgery. This is the place to get your replacement procedure!

I truly had a great experience with Dr. Lee. Really easy and a lot better than I initially thought. I am about 2 months out since I had the linear procedure. I get compliments all the time on how well he did the back and front of my head. He takes his time, explains everything, and had more bedside manners than any doctor I have ever me. He even gave me his personal cell phone number. The back healed with NO visible scar at all. And the front is already starting to slowly grow.

As a practicing surgeon, I am well-versed in finding doctors who are highly ranked in their field. Dr. Anderson is that physician – among the best of the best for hair transplant procedures. In fact, I traveled across the country to see him. I recommend Dr. Anderson to any and all persons interested in any sort of hair transplantation wholeheartedly and without reservation.

I’m a 55-year-old practicing male physician living in Tallahassee, FL. After extensive research on hair reconstruction, I chose hair transplant at the Anderson Center in Alpharetta, GA. For years, I have been experiencing a receding hair line and crown loss. I’m not a particularly vain person, but when it comes to losing my hair, I wanted to slow down the balding process.

Dr. Anderson and his team were excellent to work with. From the initial consultation to day of procedure, every step was explained thoroughly. After just one week, I am noticing new hair growth and no scarring from the donor site which is hidden under my pre-existing hair. If you are concerned about losing your hair and have the finances for hair restoration, I highly recommend Dr. Anderson and his group.

Dr. Lee and his team are outstanding. If you are considering treatment for hair restoration, I would strongly recommend Dr. Lee. I had researched a number of clinics nationally and felt confident that the team at Anderson would be the best option. The team exceeded my expectations, and you can place your trust in Dr. Lee to help you in achieving the results that you seek. I came from out of state and am very glad that I did. I had a linear procedure and from the actual grafting to the sutures, everything was completed with precision and diligence.

This was my second transplant. It was basically to fix the hair transplant that I received from another clinic. The process was very easy. Dr. Lee talked me through the entire process and answered every question I had. My results have been great so far and Dr. Lee has responded to every text message that I’ve sent him. Can’t wait to see the full results.

Great hair transplant results from a true professional. Excellent work. Dr Anderson is superb at his craft. I got great results with highly professional service. The procedure delivered a step change in appearance for me. The concerns over this procedure – looking bad, causing too much pain, having noticeable scarring – were just not true for me. Highly recommend this doctor.

Dr. Lee and his team were incredibly professional and very courteous. I have nothing but good things to say about the entire procedure, from pre-op to post-op. Before the procedure, Dr. Lee worked with me to make sure that I achieved a hairline I loved. The day of the procedure went incredibly smoothly, and I barely felt anything. Since the procedure, I’ve been contacted three times already by the team to make sure everything is going well. Couldn’t be more pleased!

Dr. Lee was extremely professional and helpful. He answered all of my questions in great detail and took the time to answer any concerns about the recovery process. My overall experience was great! Dr. Lee’s team was very friendly and attentive. I traveled from NYC to have my FUE performed by Dr. Lee, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my decision. I highly recommend Dr. Lee and look forward to seeing the results in the coming months.
