About
At Doctor Edges Hair Restoration, Dermatology, Aesthetics, and Wellness, three board-certified physicians cover an unusually wide range of clinical services. The practice brings together direct primary care, dermatology, hair restoration surgery, medical aesthetics, and integrative wellness under one roof. Dr. Elizabeth Ekpo, Dr. Joseph Claiborne, and Dr. Joy Uya each contribute distinct expertise to the team.
Hair restoration is a particular strength, with the practice using a zone-based approach to transplantation rather than fixed graft counts. The team holds specialized experience in afrocentric hair transplantation, accounting for curved follicle structure and keloid risk. Skin of color dermatology receives dedicated attention, covering conditions such as hyperpigmentation, melasma, keloids, and pseudofolliculitis barbae. DPC memberships range from the entry-level Emerald tier to the Platinum plan, which includes weekly Emsculpt sessions, metabolic health evaluations, and a customized weight loss program. Employer memberships extend the DPC model to small business teams. Same-day and next-day appointments, telehealth visits, and a pediatric-friendly environment round out the practice's offerings.
