2026 Award
Best Hair Transplant Clinic in Chicago
Solve Clinics won the 2026 Best Hair Transplant Clinic award from South-South Awards.
Solve Clinics operates in Chicago, Illinois.
An award recognizing the hair restoration clinic that pairs published, all-in pricing with named clinical accountability and documented outcomes, giving patients a basis for comparison before they commit to surgery.
Why this business was selected
Solve Clinics earned this award on pricing transparency and named clinical accountability.
Solve Clinics publishes its per-graft price openly, at $5 per graft for shaved FUE and $6 per graft for no-shave FUE. Published pricing is uncommon in hair restoration, where the figure is normally withheld until after a consultation.
Solve Clinics names the clinicians accountable for its procedures. Stephen Kashian, MD, provides board-certified medical oversight and John Wike, PA-C, MMS, leads FUE procedures, so responsibility sits with identified individuals rather than an unnamed surgical team.
Solve Clinics documents outcomes with before-and-after sets that state graft counts and post-operative timelines, including 1,600 grafts at seven months and 2,000 grafts at twenty-four months. That lets a prospective patient judge a result against a stated procedure size and recovery period.
Solve Clinics publishes candidacy guidance identifying cases better served by medical therapy first, including still-progressing hair loss and limited donor density relative to the area to cover.
