Men’s Hair Loss Treatment in Atlanta
Men’s Hair Loss Treatment in Atlanta
At Springs Hair Restoration, we find the cause of hair loss and build a step-by-step plan for men at every stage, from early thinning to advanced recession. Consultations are performed by Dr. Zack Charkawi in our Sandy Springs clinic serving Metro Atlanta.
Most men have androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness), a genetic sensitivity to DHT that miniaturizes hair over time. Other contributors can include:
• Stress (telogen effluvium) Hormonal/thyroid issues
• Medications with hair-loss side effects
• Scalp conditions or scarring alopecia
Accurate diagnosis comes first—treatment depends on the cause.
• Receding hairline (often an “M” shape)
• Crown thinning / widening part
• More shedding on pillow, brush, or in the shower
• Miniaturized hairs along the hairline
Temporary: shedding after illness, stress, or meds (telogen effluvium), usually reverses once the trigger resolves.
Progressive: male pattern hair loss; treat early to slow miniaturization.
Scarring: needs urgent evaluation to prevent permanent loss.
MEDICAL (first line)
• DHT-modulating therapy (when appropriate) to slow miniaturization.
• Follicle-stimulating therapy -topical or oral- tailored in dose and delivery to support regrowth.
• Adjunctive care based on diagnosis, e.g., treating scalp inflammation and addressing triggers. (We’ll design a plan based on your goals and tolerance—no one-size-fits-all.)
SUGRICAL (when indicated)
• No-shave FUE for discreet harvesting
• FUT for higher graft counts or specific donor needs
• Hairline design that fits your hair type and is age-appropriate
We recommend surgery only when it’s in your best interest, and we pair it with a maintenance plan.
• Detailed history (family, medications, timelines)
• Scalp/follicle exam (trichoscopy)
• Targeted labs when indicated (e.g., thyroid, nutrition)
• Biopsy if a scarring process is suspected
You’ll leave with a clear plan—even if surgery isn’t the first step.
1- Preserve & stabilize
Evidence-based therapies to slow miniaturization and support regrowth; we tailor dose, delivery, and monitoring.

Are “natural” remedies enough for early hair loss?
Some supplements and oils have limited or mixed evidence. They may support scalp health, but they rarely replace medical therapy. We’ll review your case and only recommend what’s appropriate.
Do hats cause baldness?
No. Hats do not cause hair loss. Genetics, DHT sensitivity, illness, medications, and scarring conditions are the common drivers.
Does hair loss only come from your mother’s side?
No. Male pattern hair loss is polygenic (influenced by genes from both sides of the family).
Does high testosterone cause hair loss?
Not directly. The key factor is follicle sensitivity to DHT (a derivative of testosterone) plus the enzyme activity that converts testosterone to DHT.
How can I prevent or slow hair loss day-to-day?
Use gentle hair care (avoid tight styles/harsh heat), manage stress and sleep, address medical triggers early, and stay consistent with your prescribed plan, we’ll monitor and adjust.
Am I a candidate for a hair transplant?
You might be if you have stable hair loss, realistic goals, and adequate donor hair. We’ll evaluate candidacy during your consultation and may recommend medical therapy first.
Long Post Alert...but worth the read! - A few months ago, I decided to consider a hairline transplant in Atlanta. After doing some research, I became interested in the FUT process. I was still determining where to begin, so I initially went to what I had seen for years on TV, Bosley. The consultation was excellent, but I felt too many people between me and the surgeon performing the procedure. I wanted that direct interaction to ensure I got what I wanted in my design. I went to a second, Dr. P, but it wasn’t the right fit for me, then I was referred to Dr. Zack Charkawi. From the moment I sat down with him at his desk, I knew he was the one.

As a healthcare provider, I am very particular who I choose for my own healthcare needs. I completed my 4th hair restoration procedure with Dr. Zach, and I am extremely pleased with the outcome. Dr. Zach's professionalism was evident at my initial consultation, where he spent time discussing the procedure, pertinent research, and most importantly the realist expectations; he did not "over sell" the procedure. He also is the only practitioner that I am aware of who uses a specific anesthesia technique that dramatically decreased the procedural discomfort. He was very thorough during the procedure, covering all of the necessary areas. I highly recommend him and his staff without reservations!
My husband had a fantastic experience with Dr.Zack! It took him a while to find the best doctor for hair transplant. He had many consultations before choosing his clinic. The polish and professionalism of Dr. Zack and his team is excellent! My husband was very happy with the results of the procedure. We could never have asked for a better experience! I will be highly recommending him to my friends!
Dr Charkawi was fantastic. He really made me feel at ease and went above and beyond to make sure that I was happy with my hair. Also it’s a beautiful, clean office with a sister location for follow ups or further needs which is very helpful. Overall very satisfied customer.
