Patient Gallery
* All patients are unique and individual results may vary.
With regards to MTF hair loss, patients who have already or plan to undergo orchiectomy surgery, the removal of the source of testosterone, and/or are taking estrogen, can help arrest the hair loss situation. They are also usually taking estrogen medication which can help in this same regard. This helps assure the longest lasting results of the hair restoration.
Given his expertise in this specialty, the majority of Dr. Epstein’s patients travel to him from out of town. Most patients send some photos for him to evaluate, a process that is overseen by your personally assigned Patient Advisor, who will professionally answer many of your questions and help make your procedure a reality. The doctor and his office staff are available to answer all your questions and to make your hair restoration experience a comfortable and safe one.
