Dr. Blake Bloxham

Blake Bloxham founded Bloxham Medical in St. Louis, Missouri, described on its site as a continuation of his earlier partnership with Dr. Alan Feller, Feller & Bloxham 6. He traces his interest in the field to helping his grandmother, who had chemotherapy-induced alopecia, find treatment during his undergraduate years 1. Before medical school he worked in the online hair-loss patient community, where he came into contact with Feller, and he later trained under Feller during a postgraduate fellowship in Great Neck, New York before the two opened a shared practice 2.

Bloxham Medical offers FUE, FUT (strip), combination FUT/FUE, modified procedures, repair, and eyebrow transplants 1. In FUE, the clinic states Bloxham performs the follicle extraction; implantation is by hand or with implanter tools 3. In FUT, the strip is removed and Bloxham closes the donor area himself; technicians then dissect it into follicular units 4. It offers a trichophytic closure meant to reduce the visibility of the donor scar, and describes dense packing up to 60 grafts per square centimeter 4. The clinic staffs 7 to 12 trained technicians, a doctor plus two or three per case 5. Mega-sessions exceed 4,000 grafts 2. It states Bloxham will tell patients honestly if they are not good candidates, though no criteria are published 6.

The clinic prices by session size rather than per graft, based on transplanted hairs 5. No dollar figures are published. Scheduling requires a non-refundable $2,500 deposit, with the balance due by surgery day 5. Pre-op blood work, typically under $250, is arranged through the patient's own physician, not one tied to the clinic 5.

The clinic offers a free virtual consultation 1. Patients meet with Bloxham beforehand so the session is sized individually 5. On surgery day the clinic reviews consent forms, takes pre-op photographs, reconfirms the hairline design, and shaves the donor area before local anesthesia; sessions run 6 to 12 hours 8. Results typically appear over 12 to 18 months 8. Aftercare includes a post-surgery kit and scheduled follow-ups, plus ongoing long-term support, though no duration is quantified 7.

A third-party physician directory, not Bloxham's own site, lists him as a member of the ISHRS, the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, and the Sigma Phi honors society 9. He holds a medical degree from Andrew Taylor Still University 2.
