This is one of my favorite patients. He is a great example of a mega session hair transplant. He received 4,622 grafts during one procedure. Mega sessions are complex and require a really good candidate, unparalleled surgeon technique and strict adherence to quality control standards during surgery to ensure the best results are achieved.

These are his photos before his hair transplant surgery and 18 months post-op. His results are fantastic and he is extremely happy with the outcome. I smile every time I look at it. You can't help but be happy for him.

At CHTC, we are committed to providing you with a permanent and natural solution for your hair loss.

At CHTC, we stay ahead of the curve by investing in state of the art facilities and sparing no expense when it comes to getting the best results possible for our patients. Dr. Panine utilizes ATPv, Hypo Thermasol, EXPAREL® and other expensive medications/consumables during each hair transplant surgery because in order to get the best results, you have to give patients the best during their procedure. Unlike other clinics we do not try to upcharge you for these items.

At CHTC, we only perform hair restoration procedures. Many surgeons perform a wide range of cosmetic surgeries on various parts of the body. Our surgeon, Dr. Panine, exclusively focuses on hair transplant surgeries.

At CHTC, Dr. Panine performs every single surgery. Unlike other clinics, hair transplant technicians are NOT performing your surgery at CHTC.

At CHTC, we perform ONE hair transplant surgery per day. You can't give patient's the best results unless you focus on one patient per day. Clinics that perform multiple surgeries per day have their focus divided and their results show it; you want a custom build, not an assembly line.

With CHTC, you don't have to accept your hair loss. You can reclaim your self-esteem and confidence.

It's time for you to explore your options. Schedule your free consultation with Dr. Panine today!

A Five Start Google Review for Dr. Panine and Chicago Hair Transplant Clinic by Edwin Pratt | 3 months ago

"Had a perfect experience getting an HT performed by Dr Panine. He and his team have been professional, easy to work with, and regularly in touch both throughout the initial assessment, actual procedure, and the recovery work!

As you can see in the attached, massively better density, and a look 5-8 years younger! 100% worth it."

This patient rebuilt his hairline with a hair transplant with Dr. Panine. He has written a review which is shown on our website.
BB Ginkgo -
"I completed extensive research prior to selecting Dr. Panine to perform hair transplant surgery on me. In my search, I found that he has an excellent reputation in his field and I will continue to attest to his excellence through my surgery and results. I could not be more pleased. His prices are very competitive, especially considering he stops charging when he reaches 4,000 grafts. Any grafts he is able to transplant beyond the initial 4,000 grafts, he transplants at no additional cost and lets nothing go to waste. Dr. Panine transplanted a total of 4,749 grafts from my donor area and the results are astonishing. I could not believe it myself. He is a meticulous surgeon and I would describe him as a perfectionist as well as a master artist in his craft and abilities. Dr. Panine was with me the entire time during my surgery, unlike many doctors, who only perform parts of the surgery. He removed the hair from my donor area, completed all of the suturing, made all of the transplant sites, and even placed each of the grafts. Dr. Panine’s expertise and precision are best illustrated in my before and after photographs. I would definitely recommend Dr. Panine if you are considering hair transplant surgery. You will not be disappointed."

It isn’t every day that you find an old newspaper ad for the hair transplant clinic were you first started performing hair transplants during your dermatology residency in 1993 - 1996.

Between Dr. Fosnaugh and Dr. Hashimoto, the dermatology residents at Wayne State University were armed with three years of in depth and hands-on, hair transplant surgery experience before finishing their residency.

I owe them both a great deal but I still can’t compete with the marketing prowess of Dr. Fosnaugh. Hands down, his ads hit pretty hard by 1993 standards.

In all seriousness though, it is notable that Dr. Fosnaugh was a close, personal friend and colleague of Dr. Orentreich, who is the father of the dermatologic cosmetic surgery that we commonly call hair transplant surgery. In other words, I believe I get a few cool points for having a direct genealogy to the father of hair transplantation with only one degree of separation between us. These guys are legends so any proximity to them is a great honor.

"Pictures are about 5.5 months post-op Stuart was awesome, super responsive pre-op and post-op. Was able to text him at any time and he’d respond. Dr Panine was fantastic. Very experienced, knowledgeable and had my best interests in mind. Explained to me the importance of a conservative hairline for my age and I trusted him and it came out great. I’m about 7 months post-op and it is the best decision I’ve ever made. I’d highly recommend them. The support staff and techs were great as well!"

What does a 2,500 graft FUE hair transplant look like?
Let's look at Max Power, who received 2,500 grafts with Dr. Panine via a FUE hair transplant.

He added significant density and rebuilt his hairline, which now looks phenomenal.

Max Power also outlined his experience with Dr. Panine in an online review shown below:

"Hi Everyone -
I am a patient of Dr. Panine and this is my review of my 2,600 graft FUE procedure. Right now I am just about 18 months post op and could not be more thrilled with the results.

Initial Consultation

For about a year I combed through what seemed like hundreds of pages of internet research on hair loss and hair transplant doctors in the Chicago-land area. I settled on three possible options for my procedure and decided to make an initial consultation with each of them.

What I felt set Dr. Panine and his team apart was their commitment to me. Starting with Stuart and all the way through the whole team I always felt like they had my best interests at heart -- and most importantly they listened to me. Dr. Panine and Stuart addressed my questions and concerns and then we got out to building a plan of attack. What also stood out to me was that Dr. Panine never over promised anything. Looking back 18 months later I can honestly say he delivered exactly what he said he would deliver on.

The team was very upfront that no one can accurately predict hair loss and gave me some guidance and best practices for after my operation. I really liked this because I felt like I was creating a partnership with them for the long haul, as opposed to just having my procedure and then they'd be done with me. This really helped make my decision to go with Dr. Panine much easier.

Pre Op

Over communication became a theme throughout this process -- and I was very grateful for that. Stuart and I chatted a few times a week leading up to my procedure and he made sure I had everything I needed and that if I had any questions he was right there to answer them.

Day of Op

In total my procedure lasted about 12 hours -- but honestly the day flew by. My comfort was paramount to the team that day, they really made me feel welcome.

Dr. Panine made sure he explained everything upfront as well as he went along. He allowed me to ask questions, get up and stretch and make sure I always had enough food and water. Having the big screen TV at my disposal was an excellent touch as well!

At the end of the day Stuart was nice enough to drive me home -- what a stand up guy he is.

Post Op

The next day I came back into the office and Stuart took off my bandages, cleaned up me and took some photos. The recovery from there was all exactly as Dr. Panine and Stuart said it would be. The team communicated with me very well and helped me get everything moving in the right direction for a speedy recovery. The swelling lasted a few days and after that we were off and running.

I met with Dr. Panine & Stuart every few months just to do a status check and what always amazed me about these meetings was how on top of everything they were. They helped me understand how things were progressing and what to expect next.

Overall the recovery was very smooth and I was one of the lucky ones who progressed a bit faster than normal. It was such a great feeling to wake up every morning and see what new progress I had made. I kept my own journal of pictures that I took each month -- going back and looking at them is nothing short of amazing.

Conclusion

The decision to have this procedure done absolutely changed my life. I know this sounds super cheesy but I honestly feel like a new person.

Choosing Dr. Panine really came down to his personal touch, commitment to me and the ability of his team to go above and beyond my expectations. I would be remiss if I didn't give a huge shout out to Stuart as well. His kindness, understanding and ability to communicate makes him one of the best in the business -- he is truly a difference maker. I would recommend Dr. Panine not only for artistry, care and ex*****on -- but also because Stuart is there to make you feel confident about the process the whole way through."

A Five Star Google Review of Dr. Panine and Chicago Hair Transplant Clinic by Brandon Le burkien
Posted on Google August 2025

“I wasn’t ready to give up and shave my head so when I spoke with several doctors about a hair transplant, it was night and day talking with Dr. Panine compared to others I spoke with in terms of his knowledge in and around hair transplants but also how simple he made everything for me. I felt like I was in good hands from our consult so I proceeded. The surgery itself was painless and his staff was extremely kind and fun. Since Dr. Panine educated me in what to expect following surgery, I was more than prepared to manage the slight pain and the process of my hair regrowing. I’m about 9 months out from the surgery and honestly my hair has not looked this good since I was a teenager. It feels really good to not have to be self conscious about my former receding hairline and going bald, let alone my girlfriend is always playing with my hair now which is a nice perk. If you’re on the fence about going through with the transplant, it’s 100% worth it and not a bad recovery at all! 10/10 highly recommend Dr. Panine for the surgery.”

Hair transplant surgery can be a real life changer. Whether it's a force for good or a drain on your self-esteem depends on who performs your surgery. Do your homework when selecting a surgeon. Hair transplant surgery is permanent and if you get a hairline you don't like, you will need to have it corrected.

I've had many patients come to me for corrective surgery. The patient shown in this post happens to be one of them. As you can see in the before photos, his hairline was not desirable and there were numerous stray hairs, transplanted by the prior surgeon, in the middle of nowhere.

I performed two surgeries on this patient to correct the prior surgery and get him to where he wanted to be. He now has a strong hairline that looks very natural and absolutely great density. The photo results are 9 months after his second surgery.

I'll post a video of the patient in the comments section. The video is 3 years after his second surgery. Spoiler alert - the staff even give it the comb test in the video to show how epically dense that hair is now.
