Dr. Scott Boden Gives Connecticut Woman the Gift of Hair after Bout with Cancer

Dr. Boden is a participating physician with the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons Operation Restore program, which helps people who have lost hair as a result of disease or trauma and lack the financial resources to have corrective hair restoration surgery.

Weathersfield, CT, October 06, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Scott Boden, M.D., a board certified hair transplant surgeon with the Hair Restoration and Aesthetic Medicine Center of Connecticut, recently gave cancer survivor, Genevieve Proto, the gift of hair by performing a pro bono hair transplant on her scalp.

In 2006, at the age of 50, Genevieve Proto was diagnosed with Lymphoma. She had surgery to excise the malignant tumor and then received 22 bouts of radiation therapy. Though she has been cancer-free for nearly three years, the emotional and physical scars of her experience are still with her. Treatment of the malignant tumor left a prominent bald patch on her scalp. She feared that she would have to endure this constant reminder of her illness for the rest of her life.

Dr. Boden is a participating physician with the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons Operation Restore program, which helps people who have lost hair as a result of disease or trauma and lack the financial resources to have corrective hair restoration surgery. Through Operation Restore, Dr. Boden met with Genevieve and determined her to be a good candidate for hair transplantation.

“Genevieve is a fighter and came through the battle of her life,” said Dr. Boden. “The opportunity to restore her confidence and self-esteem through hair transplantation was a gratifying experience for me. It’s for this reason that I enjoy being involved with Operation Restore.”
