Just as baldness is one of the biggest concerns for many men – and hair thinning similarly for women – so hair restoration surgery can be one of the most confidence-boosting procedures available.
But, while today’s expertise means that a hair transplant takes just half a day – as with all cosmetic surgery – and can have miraculous result, it’s vital to do the groundwork before taking the plunge.
Here are hair transplant expert Why Go Abroad’s top tips for hair restoration surgery.
1) Do your research
Make sure your hair transplant surgeon is General Medical Council (GMC) registered. Experience and skill levels of surgeons can vary, and therefore so do their results, so it’s crucial to ensure your surgeon is accredited.
2) Consider the range of prices available – but don’t only rely on this!
Just as surgeons’ experience will vary, so do hair transplant prices. As a guide, hair restoration surgery from Why Go Abroad starts at £3,000, but it’s worth comparing several prices to check you are receiving value for money.
3) Check what aftercare is included
Patients too often overlook aftercare when making their choice of provider. The quality of post-operation service is vital to ensure your satisfaction with the procedure and continued wellbeing. Why Go Abroad offers six months aftercare on most procedures – but don’t be afraid to ask!
4) Check what results are realistic
It’s important to discuss your expectations of the procedure and your surgeon should happily show you examples of his or her work. If they won’t discuss the outcome or show you case studies, alarm bells should start to ring!
5) Most importantly…ask questions!
If you don’t understand something, or would like it clarified, just ask – that’s what the experts are there for!
