Tips for choosing a hair
transplant surgeon - sponsored by:
- Does the physician take a holistic approach to hair
restoration? Your physician should help you evaluate
all your options, surgical and non surgical.
- Has the clinic made the investment in time and
resources to do large sessions of micro follicular unit
hair transplantation? Doing outstanding work requires a
staff dedicated and trained to use high-powered
magnification with the capability of producing at least
2,000 carefully trimmed grafts per surgical
session.
- Choose a hair restoration clinic that is patient
focused rather than commercially focused. Some clinics
emphasize revenue, speed and volume rather than
dedicating the time and individual care needed to
produce optimal results.
- Is hair restoration the primary focus of their
practice? Outstanding results require a physician and a
full staff who perform hair restoration surgery on a
regular basis. Doing hair restoration as a sideline,
along with other cosmetic procedures, may hinder their
ability to do large sessions of highly refined
follicular unit transplantation.
- How many patients has this physician produced
excellent results for? Like any skill, experience over
time is critical to acquiring the skill and judgment
required to produce excellent results.
- Can the physician provide at least a dozen sets of
detailed patient before and after photographs? Do they
also have patients who are willing to speak with you
and meet with you in person?
- What is the physician’s reputation on hair loss
related discussion forums? To learn what patients are
saying about hair transplant physicians and hair loss
treatments visit the Hair Restoration Forum.
