Day 1 after surgery and the result exceeded my expectations. No pain or discomfort.
Excited to see the final result in a year!
Zacco and Melissa. They took great care of me.
Also, i went there 4 times for PRP as of now and the pain was very little.
1. Accept that you may never regain all of the original hair you once had. But you can be confident that a transplant will satisfactorily enhance what you naturally have.
2. Achieving desired results may require additional transplants after the initial procedure. If you don't have the patience or the means consider other options.
3. Trusting the advice of the Doctor, over someone without experience in transplants, is highly recommended for a successful outcome.
Choose Your Hair Transplant Clinic With Confidence
The hair transplant clinic you choose has a direct impact on every stage of your treatment, from the initial diagnosis and hairline design to donor preservation, graft placement, and follow-up care. Experience matters, but so does knowing who is responsible for the medical and surgical decisions behind your procedure.
At AZ Hair Restoration, we are the only physician-owned hair transplantation facility in Wake County. Dr. Arthur Zacco personally evaluates your hair loss, plans your procedure, and remains involved throughout your treatment, giving you direct access to the physician responsible for restoring your hair.
What to Look for in a Hair Transplant Clinic
A polished website or low headline price does not tell you who will evaluate your hair loss, perform the surgical stage,s or support you during recovery. A reputable clinic should be completely transparent about the physician, team, techniques, and long-term plan behind the procedure.
Before choosing a hair restoration clinic, look closely at:
- The physician’s training, licensing, and hair restoration experience
- Who performs the consultation and diagnoses the hair loss
- Who designs the hairline and surgical plan
- Who performs donor harvesting and creates the recipient sites
- Whether the clinic offers both FUE and FUT
- How the available donor supply will be protected
- The safety, anesthesia, and comfort protocols
- Genuine before and after results from the clinic’s own patients
- Access to the physician throughout recovery and follow-up
- Clear pricing without hidden procedural fees
Why Physician Ownership Matters
Hair transplant surgery should never feel like a production line. It requires an accurate diagnosis, careful donor management, precise hairline design, and a clear understanding of how your natural hair loss is likely to progress.
At AZ Hair Restoration, Dr. Zacco directs the medical and surgical plan while our experienced technicians support the procedure within defined roles. This physician-led structure ensures that major decisions are under direct medical oversight, providing continuity from the initial consultation through the final stages of growth.
Meet Dr. Arthur Zacco
Dr. Arthur Zacco has been performing hair transplantation in Wake County, North Carolina, since 1996 and brings more than 30 years of experience to the clinic. He personally evaluates each patient’s hair-loss pattern, donor supply, and restoration goals before recommending FUE, FUT, MFU, or a combination of techniques.
His experience also includes corrective work for hair transplants performed elsewhere. Dr. Zacco is a member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery and remains involved through the procedure and follow-up process, so your care does not begin with a salesperson or end when you leave the surgical chair.
Results From Our Hair Transplant Clinic
Results should speak for themselves. Hairline design, graft distribution, density, and blending should complement the patient’s facial proportions and existing growth pattern rather than produce the same standardized look every time.
Our before-and-after gallery includes unedited photographs and videos from patients treated by Dr. Zacco and our team. Explore results from FUE, FUT, female hair transplantation, and facial hair restoration to see what careful planning and precise follicular placement can achieve.
All photographs show actual patients of AZ Hair Restoration. The outcomes are specific to those individuals and do not necessarily reflect the results that every patient will experience.

Safety, Anesthesia, and Patient Comfort
Comfort is not an afterthought at our hair transplant clinic. Every procedure begins with a medical assessment and detailed surgical plan, allowing Dr. Zacco to determine the right transplant technique, donor strategy, graft requirements, and recipient areas before surgery begins.
We perform hair transplantation under local anesthesia and use our Ouchless Injection Technique with nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, to minimize discomfort. You will also receive clear aftercare instructions and direct access to our team if questions arise during recovery.
What Happens on the Day of Your Hair Transplant?
Your procedure follows a carefully planned sequence based on the technique selected and the number of grafts required. We explain the schedule before treatment so you can arrive knowing exactly what will happen at each stage.
Arrival and Treatment Planning
We begin by reviewing the treatment plan, preparing the scalp, and confirming the areas being restored. Dr. Zacco finalizes the hairline and recipient-site design according to your facial proportions, natural growth pattern, and long-term hair-loss plan.
Donor Hair Harvesting
Donor follicles are harvested using FUE, FUT, or a combined approach. Dr. Zacco selects the method according to the graft requirements, available donor supply, hairstyle preferences, and need to preserve options for future treatment.
Graft Preparation and Placement
The harvested tissue is prepared into individual follicular-unit grafts and organized for placement. Recipient sites control the direction, angle, and distribution of the transplanted hair, helping the new growth blend naturally with the hair that remains.

Frequently
Asked Questions
Who will actually perform my hair transplant?
Dr. Zacco personally evaluates your hair loss, creates the surgical plan, and performs the key medical stages of your procedure. Our experienced technicians work as part of his physician-led team, supporting graft preparation and placement within clearly defined roles.
Should I choose the cheapest hair transplant clinic?
Price matters, but the lowest quote can become extremely expensive if poor planning, donor damage, or unnatural placement requires corrective treatment. Compare the physician’s experience, surgical involvement, donor strategy, results, and follow-up care before comparing the final cost.
Do I need to choose between FUE and FUT before my consultation?
No. You do not need to arrive knowing which technique you want. Dr. Zacco will examine your donor area, hair-loss pattern, and graft requirements before explaining which method gives you the strongest immediate and long-term plan.
Why is donor-area planning so important?
Your donor area contains a limited supply of follicles that can be moved safely. Careful planning protects that supply, supports the current result, and preserves your options if progressive hair loss creates a need for further transplantation.
Can you correct a hair transplant performed by another clinic?
Yes, Dr. Zacco performs corrective procedures for selected patients who have undergone transplantation elsewhere. He will assess the existing hairline, graft placement, scarring, and remaining donor supply before explaining what can be improved.
Will my hair transplant look natural?
A well-planned transplant is designed to follow the angle, direction, and distribution of natural hair growth. Dr. Zacco also considers your facial proportions, existing hair, and future loss when designing the hairline and placing the grafts.
How important is follow-up care after a hair transplant?
Follow-up care is a vital part of the process, not an optional extra. It allows us to review healing, answer questions, and monitor growth while giving you direct support throughout recovery.
What questions should I ask before choosing a hair transplant clinic?
Ask who will diagnose your hair loss, design the hairline, harvest donor follicles, and create the recipient sites. You should also ask about credentials, available techniques, donor preservation, total costs, aftercare, and access to the physician following surgery.
Can I visit the clinic before deciding to have treatment?
Absolutely. Your free consultation gives you the opportunity to meet Dr. Zacco, see the clinical environment, and understand the complete plan before making a decision. You will receive a direct recommendation and clear pricing without being pushed into a procedure on the day.
