Where we are
2425 W. 22nd Street, Suite 205C, Oak Brook, IL 60523. Open in Maps
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.
DuPage County is where the practice sits, and the majority of the people we see live inside it. That has a practical consequence worth stating plainly: your follow-up appointments at three, eight and twelve months are a local errand rather than a planned trip, which is the single biggest reason people finish a treatment plan instead of abandoning it halfway.
The follow-up is the point.
A transplant is not delivered on the day it is performed. It declares itself over a year, through a shedding phase that alarms people who were not warned about it and a regrowth phase nobody can rush. Living 10 miles away means you are inside that process rather than reporting on it remotely.
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 Glendale Heights patients as for everyone else.
FUE hair transplant
Units taken one by one from the safe donor zone and placed at the angle and density the surrounding hair already has. No strip harvesting, and no linear scar to plan a haircut around.

PRP therapy
Your own platelets, concentrated and reintroduced to support hair that is miniaturising but still present. It defends what you have; it does not replace what has gone.

Your donor area is finite.
A donor area is a budget, not a resource. Removing more than twenty to thirty percent of the follicular units from one zone in a single session risks visible permanent thinning there — which is why large restorations are staged rather than done in one sitting, and why we plan for the pattern you will have in twenty years rather than the one in the mirror today.
Sometimes the right answer is to wait, or to stabilise medically first. If your loss is still moving quickly, operating into it is how people end up with an island of transplanted hair and a gap opening behind it. That is a real outcome of a consultation here, and it is not a lost sale.
