Dr. Friedman has dedicated his medical career to becoming a true specialist in hair restoration surgery. He is the Founding President of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery, the certifying board for hair transplant surgeons. Dr. Friedman believes that hair transplantation is a surgical specialty in itself and like other medical specialties, it requires professional oversight to protect the public from inexperienced surgeons. He has lectured extensively nationally and internationally at hair restoration and dermatology seminars. He has also taught his surgical techniques at live surgery workshops.
Dr. Friedman has been very generous with his time and knowledge, training a number of well known hair transplant physicians. Dr. Friedman not only performs the latest hair restoration techniques but also has advanced the practice of hair transplantation with his own innovative ideas and skills.
Dr. Friedman also holds a Board Certification for Dermatology, the field dedicated to skin, nails, and hair loss & alopecia.

THE DOCTOR’S COMPLETE GUIDE TO HAIR LOSS, BY DR. SHELLY FRIEDMAN, DO, 2018
An informed decision is the best decision and Dr. Friedman wants every one who endures unwanted hair loss to have the information they need to treat it effectively. Lies, exaggerations, fake science, and bogus claims have polluted the internet, making it difficult to get to the truth.
To guide men and women in the right direction, Dr. Friedman has taken the best of his 36+ years as a dermatologist and hair restoration doctor and concentrated it down into an easy-to-read book, The Doctor’s Complete Guide to Hair Loss. From it, you will learn why we lose hair, how it is lost, how we can prevent it, and what we can do—surgically and non-surgically—to get it back.
“I was referred to Dr Friedman by a good friend and top 10 surgeon in the state of Arizona. I received the most amazing treatment that I experienced. I had done this before and what I received by Dr Friedman was comparing day and night. This is the best treatment that you can receive if interested in Hair transplants.”

Previous review someone gave that was a bad review did not understand that if the graphs are placed Too Close you will have shock loss Dr Freeman finds a happy medium so the hairline is restored and shock loss is minimal which happens in any procedure involving hair transplants he also offers 10 free laser treatments and suggest hyperbaric chamber which goes above and beyond and prevents shock loss.

Dr. Friedman and Dr. Chu along with all of there staff are in a class by themselves. I would highly recommend anyone who is considering this process to please speak to them first. You experience a level of professionalism rarely seen these days.”

“It was a great experience from the pre interview and doctors FUT understanding and consultation. The actual process went very smoothly and all the technicians were very professional and efficient in their duties. I was very comfortable and confident in Dr. Friedman and have plans to perform future hair transplants as needed. I was also glad I purchased the well priced hair regrowth cap that I share with my wife. Thanks Team.”

“Just got done with my 2nd transplant, the staff made it easy. Dr Friedman is an outstanding person and has been doing this for many years and it shows. Everything is explained up front and no surprises. My first transplant healed perfectly and I’m excited to see the final result. Pro tip: wear your wireless earbuds and put on your playlist to help pass the time and help from hearing the incisions. Thank you to all of the girls helping out, they are extremely nice, compassionate and made it fun.”

THE DOCTOR’S COMPLETE GUIDE TO HAIR LOSS, BY DR. SHELLY FRIEDMAN, DO, 2018
An informed decision is the best decision and Dr. Friedman wants every one who endures unwanted hair loss to have the information they need to treat it effectively. Lies, exaggerations, fake science, and bogus claims have polluted the internet, making it difficult to get to the truth.
To guide men and women in the right direction, Dr. Friedman has taken the best of his 36+ years as a dermatologist and hair restoration doctor and concentrated it down into an easy-to-read book, The Doctor’s Complete Guide to Hair Loss. From it, you will learn why we lose hair, how it is lost, how we can prevent it, and what we can do—surgically and non-surgically—to get it back.
“I was referred to Dr Friedman by a good friend and top 10 surgeon in the state of Arizona. I received the most amazing treatment that I experienced. I had done this before and what I received by Dr Friedman was comparing day and night. This is the best treatment that you can receive if interested in Hair transplants.”

“It was a great experience from the pre interview and doctors FUT understanding and consultation. The actual process went very smoothly and all the technicians were very professional and efficient in their duties. I was very comfortable and confident in Dr. Friedman and have plans to perform future hair transplants as needed. I was also glad I purchased the well priced hair regrowth cap that I share with my wife. Thanks Team.”

“Just got done with my 2nd transplant, the staff made it easy. Dr Friedman is an outstanding person and has been doing this for many years and it shows. Everything is explained up front and no surprises. My first transplant healed perfectly and I’m excited to see the final result. Pro tip: wear your wireless earbuds and put on your playlist to help pass the time and help from hearing the incisions. Thank you to all of the girls helping out, they are extremely nice, compassionate and made it fun.”

THE DOCTOR’S COMPLETE GUIDE TO HAIR LOSS, BY DR. SHELLY FRIEDMAN, DO, 2018
An informed decision is the best decision and Dr. Friedman wants every one who endures unwanted hair loss to have the information they need to treat it effectively. Lies, exaggerations, fake science, and bogus claims have polluted the internet, making it difficult to get to the truth.
To guide men and women in the right direction, Dr. Friedman has taken the best of his 36+ years as a dermatologist and hair restoration doctor and concentrated it down into an easy-to-read book, The Doctor’s Complete Guide to Hair Loss. From it, you will learn why we lose hair, how it is lost, how we can prevent it, and what we can do—surgically and non-surgically—to get it back.
“I was referred to Dr Friedman by a good friend and top 10 surgeon in the state of Arizona. I received the most amazing treatment that I experienced. I had done this before and what I received by Dr Friedman was comparing day and night. This is the best treatment that you can receive if interested in Hair transplants.”

“Very experienced unbelievable detail and workmanship. Previous review someone gave that was a bad review did not understand that if the graphs are placed Too Close you will have shock loss Dr Freeman finds a happy medium so the hairline is restored and shock loss is minimal which happens in any procedure involving hair transplants he also offers 10 free laser treatments and suggest hyperbaric chamber which goes above and beyond and prevents shock loss. I've been coming here for years hair transplants are the specialty very thorough follow-up and after care. Dr Freeman is top-notch would not recommend any other place. Other cosmetic procedures provided as well.”
