Background
Daniel A. Danyo, MD describes himself as the founder and sole physician of North Atlanta Hair Restoration in Alpharetta, Georgia.1 IAHRS's own directory listing for him states he founded the practice in 2012.6 He says he moved into hair restoration in 2011, leaving a pain management and rehabilitation practice after his brother, during a beach conversation, told him his injection experience would make him a great hair transplant doctor.1 A newer clinic page describes surgery as physician-and-PA performed, with a named PA implanting grafts alongside him, differing from his account of doing the entire case himself.2
Procedures and techniques
The clinic specializes in Shave-Less (No-Shave) FUE, harvesting and re-implanting follicles without shaving the head, which it says distinguishes it from traditional FUE (only a portion strictly needs shaving, but the entire head is usually shaved for cosmetic reasons) and from older FUT strip surgery, which it says leaves a linear scar.3 The clinic says graft implantation uses Direct Hair Implantation, combining site creation and placement to control graft depth, density and donor management, with hairlines designed around each patient's facial structure, age and goals.2 Women are often described as less likely to be good candidates, since hair loss in women tends to be more diffuse, though some patterns are compatible.3
Pricing
The clinic does not publish per-graft or package prices; each procedure is quoted individually after a consultation with Dr. Danyo.5 It says Shave-Less FUE usually costs more, since it is more difficult and time-intensive, though not always by much, and it accepts major credit cards plus CareCredit financing.5
Booking and aftercare
The clinic offers a free, confidential virtual consultation, with Dr. Danyo evaluating hair loss and giving a tailored recommendation.3 He meets patients himself rather than an off-site sales team, and consultations cover financing, options and aftercare.4 For Shave-Less FUE, most patients resume normal activity within a few days, often returning to work the following week.3
Credentials and memberships
Danyo is a Diplomate of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery, per the board's own registry.7 He is a Full Member of the ISHRS, per that organization's own directory.8 He also has a listing in the IAHRS's own Find a Doctor directory, as an IAHRS member.6 A third-party directory separately lists certification in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, Pain Medicine, and Medical Acupuncture.9
