May 18, 2010 - PRLog -- 5 STEPS TO FINDING A GOOD HAIR TRANSPLANT SURGEON- Not as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack! “Chandigarh, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Karnal, Shimla”

You have been wanting to go in for a hair transplant in India but did the  prospect of finding a good hair transplant surgeon make you loose more hair? Yes, this venture can be time consuming if you do not know where to start. Claims all over the various advertisement platforms numbs your senses and you do not know whom to choose. The common sense approach is to get a recommendation from a friend or an associate but since they have very little at stake, you should do the search alone. The procedure of hair transplantation requires precision and expertise failing which the outcome can be on most occasions irrevocable (unrepairable).
Since hair transplantation is a highly specialized field of cosmetic plastic surgery, one of the most sensible first steps is to look for the list of plastic surgeons  who are members of the Association of Hair Restoration Surgeons-India (www.ahrsindia.com). If given a choice, I would much prefer a plastic surgeon who is current and relevant in all his skills, and membership to this society validates this through continuing quality improvement and education for professionals in the field of medical hair restoration surgery.
After you have completed this important first step,  the next best way to find a good surgeon for hair transplanting is by going through the following 4 steps:
1. Locate a hair restoration plastic surgeon in your city or nearby. The reasons are very pragmatic. Firstly, you do not have to leave Chandigarh-Punjab-Delhi area which are your comfort areas and since you are familiar with your city of residence. After every surgical procedure there exists a possibility that you might need to make multiple trips before and after the procedure for further consultation, take advice whenever there is discomfort, and above all, have easy access to the doctor. Traveling thousands of miles does not make economical sense at all, especially if a problem arises and the journey has to be undertaken time and again. I know because countless people have approached me for hair transplant repair work.
2. Now shortlist the clinics in your city and look for references. Recommendations of people who have already gone through this procedure is a big help. The family physician who is part of the medical fraternity in the city can also help in finding good surgeons.
3. Cheap hair transplants may give cheap results. However, while checking out and comparing the rates and charges, shortlist those that fit into the budget allocated for the hair transplant. Out of these, look for the most highly qualified and experienced surgeons, and find out details about their expertise. Good surgeons will always have patients willing to vouch for them. Patient reviews and reports give a lot of insights about the procedure and the common hair problems one might faced.
4. The success rate of the clinic and the surgeon is reflected in the percentage of hair growth achieved by its patients and not by the technique advertised. Many clinics offer to replace the grafts that do not show hair growth free of charge at a later date. Find out if the clinic offers the same.
This initial fact finding mission will bear fruit when you have a head full of hair- much like you wanted.
