At 29, Akash Devkar was thriving in his career as a software engineer. His life revolved around coding marathons, project deadlines, and late-night coffee sessions. To his colleagues, he was ambitious and focused, steadily climbing the professional ladder. But behind the screen, Akash was dealing with a struggle that no algorithm could solve — his advanced hair loss.

By his late twenties, Akash’s baldness had reached Grade 6–7, with significant thinning across the scalp. Each glance in the mirror reminded him of how quickly his appearance had changed.

When Self-Esteem Takes a Hit

For someone who once took pride in his sharp looks, the rapid hair loss hit hard. Akash began avoiding group pictures, kept his camera off during online meetings, and often wore a cap to gatherings. He felt he looked much older than he was, and the change quietly affected his confidence in both professional and personal spaces.

The Endless Search for Solutions

Like many others, Akash tried multiple remedies before seeking expert help — shampoos that promised miracles, hair oils recommended by relatives, dietary supplements, and countless YouTube tips. But nothing worked. Each failed attempt left him more frustrated, and the worry that he’d have to live with baldness forever started sinking in.

The Turning Point

While researching online, Akash came across Dr. Kiran Chotaliya’s work in Pune. What stood out to him wasn’t flashy promises, but real patient stories with natural-looking results. Intrigued, he decided to book a consultation.

A Different Kind of Consultation

At the clinic, Akash was struck by how warm and approachable the atmosphere felt. Dr. Kiran spent time understanding his lifestyle, hair loss history, and expectations before suggesting the right treatment.

The recommendation was clear: Implanter Sapphire FUE — a technique using sapphire blades and an implanter pen for precise placement of hair follicles. The result? Faster healing, minimal scarring, and hair that grows in the natural direction, giving a seamless look.

Dr. Kiran explained the pros and cons, the cost, the recovery timeline, and the natural shedding phase. The transparency gave Akash confidence to finally take the step he had been delaying for years.
