I reckon only the very best Docs will have waiting times, and even they would have reduced by a few months. H/T industry may not have suffered the recession much, but people save for these procedures, but the longer this recession goes on, the more the H/T industry will feel its effects. IMO.

This recession is hitting almost every industry segment. Insomuch as HTs are elective surgery, I'd have to say that this industry will certainly feel the pinch.

How much of a pinch? Who knows. Price cuts will not likely help, but a healthier economy and market will.

Ben Bernanke says a rebound in 2010. I hope he is right.

One bright spot (in the U.S.) might be non-residents seeking surgery here if their home currency strengthens considerably versus the dollar.

Sorry for the lecture

Dr. Dean Edell(not a hair transplant doctor) on his radio program gave an interesting stat that during hard times the cosmetic industry prospers. It seems people want to look good to perk up their mood.
