John P. Cole, MD is the medical director and founder of the International Hair Transplant Institute (IHTI). He is the first doctor in the U.S who offers knife free FUE (follicular unit extraction) and BHT (body hair transplant) techniques on a routine basis to his patients. The advantages of FUE hair transplantation is that the procedure does not require knife, scalpel, stitches and leaves no visible scarring in the patient's donor site.

Presently, Dr. Cole has published more patient results in the hair transplant open forum than any other doctors in the US. Dr. Cole has also published many peer reviewed articles on hair transplantation over the years. In addition, he is also widely recognized for being the most versatile doctor when it comes to hairline design, constantly praised for his ability to create very dramatic improvement without using a lot of donor follicles. 

The IHTI is a world class surgical hair transplant team trained by Dr. Cole himself. The group has over 22 years of combined experience in treating hair loss consisting of physicians from around the world. International hair transplant physicians serve as members of the International Society of Hair Restorations Surgery, The American Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, The European Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, The International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons, and the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery.
