Hair transplant for Lombard

People come to us from Lombard for the ordinary reason: it is close, and hair restoration is a year-long relationship rather than a single appointment.

South on Route 53, then a short jog east. Comfortable even in rush hour.

Getting here from Lombard

Lombard Oak Brook Route 53 south to 22nd Street about 6 miles · roughly 14 minutes

The drive

Route 53 south to 22nd Street — about 6 miles, roughly 14 minutes outside peak hours.

Where we are

2425 W. 22nd Street, Suite 205C, Oak Brook, IL 60523. Open in Maps

Parking

There is parking at the building itself — worth knowing given how long a procedure day actually takes.

This is a surface-street drive rather than an expressway run, which sounds slower and usually is not. Fewer merges, no tolls, and a route you can follow without thinking about it on the way home, which is the part that matters on procedure day.

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.


Why treat this locally

The follow-up is the point.

What the 14-minute drive from Lombard actually buys is boring and decisive: the person who designed your hairline is the person who examines it a year later, and can be held to what they said at the start.

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.

What we do

Two procedures, for Lombard patients as for everyone else.


The part most clinics skip

Your donor area is finite.

Most of the regret we hear about traces back to the same decision: a hairline placed too low, too early, using donor hair that was needed later. The safe lifetime supply is finite — published guidance puts it around four to eight thousand follicular units — and the plan has to be built backwards from that number.

Stabilise first, operate second. That order is not caution for its own sake — it is what keeps a single procedure from becoming a sequence of corrections, each one spending donor supply you were going to need at fifty.

Straight answers

Lombard questions

Yes. We perform follicular unit extraction, and platelet-rich plasma therapy to support the hair you still have. We do not perform strip harvesting, and we are not a menu of competing technique names.

Yes. The same follicular unit extraction is used for eyebrow and beard restoration. What changes is which units are taken, at what angle, and in what order — the published density ranges for facial areas are quite different from scalp.

About 6 miles. The usual route is route 53 south to 22nd Street, which takes roughly 14 minutes outside peak hours. We are at 2425 W. 22nd Street, Suite 205C in Oak Brook, with parking on site.

Most people take a few days. The recipient area is visibly pink and crusted in the first week, so the honest answer depends on how public your work is rather than on how you feel, which is usually fine within a day or two.

The honest starting point from Lombard is to find out whether this is the right year for surgery at all. For a meaningful share of people who ask, the answer is medical therapy first, and being told so is a real outcome of a consultation here.
