Portrait of Jon Ballon, MD

Jon Ballon, MD

Support faculty — historical listing (deceased 2017)

Historical listing only. AACS still names Jon Ballon as support faculty, but the ISHRS memorial identifies Jonathan L. Ballon, an Alpharetta neurosurgeon and hair-restoration surgeon, and records his death on 30 April 2017. He is not available as a current supervisor.

Georgia Oral & Facial Reconstructive Surgery

Jonathan L. Ballon trained in neurosurgery before entering hair-restoration surgery. The ISHRS memorial records his Alpharetta practice and his death on 30 April 2017; the fellowship website retains his name in an outdated support-faculty list.
