Best Hair Transplant
The Best Hair Transplants-Well Maybe!
by: Ken Meyer
A Hair transplant surgery may not be for you in fact, some people have been so
disappointed and even angered about their results that they have filed lawsuits against
hair transplant surgeons and clinics.
Think about the following realities BEFORE you opt for hair transplants..
1. Your going to SCAR yourself. All hair transplant surgery will create small scars. Some
people find them unacceptable. They want to wear their hair short, and they see the scar
peeking out from under their hair, even if no one else does.
In addition, not all physicians have the same and sometimes larger scars can be created as
a result of hair transplants.
2. Underestimating Procedures. Certain surgeons and clinics underestimate the number of
procedures necessary to achieve the desired effect. This leads people to have a false hope
of having a full head of hair in a very short time. In addition, this can become a burden on
the old pocketbook!
3. Underestimating Price. Surgeons usually do give some sort of estimate of the cost of
the entire procedure of a hair transplant. This is related to the above point, and is a good
one. A reputable surgeon will emphasize that it is only an estimate and that things may
change once the procedures are started.
An unscrupulous surgeon, on the other hand, will distort the facts about his hair
transplant procedures. He will try to get the patient started by stating that the price will be
very low. Get your costs up front and guaranteed.
4. Uneven hairlines. Some people who have hair transplant surgery end up with uneven
hairlines. One needs to address this possibility BEFORE electing the surgery.
5. Doctors Who Put Money above the Patients’ Interest. Any doctors who make decisions
that are not based on the welfare of his patient are following their Hippocratic Oath in its
intentions.
Doctors are held to a high standard and when a surgeon tries to convince a patient to get
hair transplant surgery when it is not best for him, he is not really acting as a doctor
should. The horror stories are out there and many people are aware of them.
6. Old-Fashioned Plugs. People with the large plugs that look like doll’s hair or
toothbrush bristles are still around. While this type of hair transplant is rarely done
anymore, the effects are still evident among people of a certain age.
If someone who knows one of these people has a balding problem, they are not likely to
think of hair transplants.
Also there is a higher rate of suicide following hair transplant and other cosmetic
surgeries. This is partly because the patients are disappointed that their lives do not
miraculously change overnight.
