Getting here from Elk Grove Village

Route 83 south to 22nd Street — about 12 miles, roughly 24 minutes outside peak hours.
Where we are

Parking
On-site parking at the building, so you are not hunting for a space before an appointment that runs several hours.
Route 83 does the whole job. It runs north-south through the western suburbs and passes within a block of the practice at 22nd Street, so there is no expressway merge and no toll on this trip at all. It is the route we most often describe over the phone, because it is the one that is hardest to get wrong.
Cook County patients reach us from the near-west suburbs, and the trip is almost always shorter than expected — the county line sits a few miles east of the practice. It is worth knowing because the twelve-to-eighteen month follow-up schedule is what decides whether a result is assessed properly, and that schedule only works if getting here is unremarkable.
The follow-up is the point.
Here is what proximity actually buys you. If growth is disappointing at month eight, someone has to look at your scalp under magnification and say why. From Elk Grove Village that is a 24-minute drive. From an overseas clinic it is a photograph attached to an email.
At this distance the follow-up schedule stops being a logistical question at all. Grafts shed at two to four weeks, regrowth starts somewhere around months three to six, and the result is judged at twelve to eighteen months — and every one of those checkpoints is a short drive rather than a day out.
Two procedures, for Elk Grove Village patients as for everyone else.
FUE hair transplant
Follicular units removed one at a time with a sub-millimetre punch and placed individually. No strip, no linear scar, and nothing about how you wear your hair has to change.

PRP therapy
A medical option rather than a surgical one, used alongside or instead of a transplant depending on where your loss actually is.

Your donor area is finite.
The number that decides your outcome is not how many grafts someone will sell you. It is how much donor hair you will still have in reserve at fifty. ISHRS guidance describes a typical safe lifetime supply of roughly four to eight thousand follicular units, and warns against over-harvesting a single zone. We plan against that ceiling deliberately.
The most useful thing a consultation can tell you is that it is too early. A hairline designed around a pattern that has not declared itself yet is a decision you cannot undo, because the donor hair spent on it does not come back.
