Dr. Farhan Contractor
Hair Transplant Surgeon on staff·We Grow Hair Indy (PAI Medical Group)
New York, United States
Background
Dr. Farhan Contractor is a staff surgeon, not an owner, at We Grow Hair Indy, a PAI Medical Group franchise in Indianapolis, alongside Clinic Directors and Hair Restoration Specialists 7. The clinic describes his career as focused solely on hair restoration for more than a decade, with over 2,000 procedures completed to date; no annual volume is published 1. Before this he was Medical Director at Keeps Hair Restoration in Midtown Manhattan, founded 2018, alongside medical advisors Dr. Jerry Shapiro and Dr. Antonella Tosti at a practice specializing in FUE 2.
Procedures and techniques
He offers the clinic's trademarked Multi-Unit Hair Grafting, an FUT variant, alongside ARTAS Robotic and manual FUE 1. The clinic states it chose ARTAS over other FUE devices for precision and speed 3. Multi-Unit Hair Grafting is marketed as moving more hair per session to cut the number of procedures needed. One clinic page puts this at up to double the hair density in the same time 3. A separate page puts it at up to three times the hair in a single procedure 4. Hairline design is described as a collaboration between Dr. Contractor and the patient, weighing current features against how the result will look as the patient ages 1. Candidacy rests on three general factors, remaining permanent hair, degree of loss, and the patient's own goals, without quantified thresholds, and results are stated to be guaranteed 3.
Pricing
Rather than charging by the graft, the clinic prices using a proprietary, unpublished "PAI Medical Level" system measuring hair count and treatment area 3. A worked example on the site notes a graft can carry one to ten hairs, so 1,200 grafts might average 5,000 to 7,000 hairs 3. Its dedicated cost page carries no dollar figures 4. For his former Keeps NYC clinic, third-party aggregator medihair.com separately lists a price range of $7,000 to $10,000 2; that figure comes from medihair's own listing, not from Contractor's or Keeps' own site, and predates his move to We Grow Hair Indy.
Booking and aftercare
Consultations are free, done either in person at the Indianapolis facility with a hair and scalp analysis and candidacy exam, or virtually by webcam with photos emailed in advance 5.
