About the author
I’m Dr. Cesar Aristeiguieta, founder of ILEA Hair Restoration and Board Certified Emergency Physician with over 23 years of practice. Born in Venezuela, I emigrated alone to the United States at fifteen. My path to medicine ran through work as an EMT, Red Cross volunteer, and police officer where I earned the “Top Gun” award from my academy class. I hold degrees from Cal State Bakersfield and USC, where I later served as assistant professor. My research has appeared in JAMA. I’ve advised the White House as a Presidential Fellow, served on the Medical Board of California, and directed California’s Emergency Medical Services Authority. A lifelong community servant, I’ve volunteered with the Red Cross since 1984. I’m also a National Geographic-published photographer, triathlete, and Master Class sporting clays competitor. My greatest passion, however, is helping patients reclaim their confidence through expert, compassionate hair restoration care.
