Hi there,
I`ve been to see the two transplant surgeons in Mendoza, Argentina where I live and I just wanted to get your opinion on which to choose... both will do follicular unit transplants and my hair-loss status is at "level 3"
Medical Hair
------------
- said they`d do upwards of 2000 units (6000 hairs) for 3000 pesos
- said they`d do some kind of blood test first
- said there`d be a kind of bandage on after which they`d take off after a day
- there didn`t seem to be much traffic at this place, no one in that day anyway
- the surgeon did other plastic surgery work, not just hair
- showed me pics of other patients but weren`t too helpful when i asked if i could speak to any of them
- to be honest i didn`t really get a good feeling for the surgeon or the place
Hair Recovery Argentina
-----------------------
- this shop has a high profile central location and what seemed like more patients
- the surgeon only did hair
- they would do just over 1000 (half of the amount the other place said!) units for 3500 pesos
- I got to speak to one patient from about a year ago with good results and one guy that had just come out; both spoke highly
As you can prob tell, I`m leaning towards the second place, the only doubts I have are that the first place said they`d do twice as many units. What is the right number of units for level 3 hairloss - around 1000 or 2000?
Also that the first place said they`d do a blood test and the second place did not - what`s the norm?
Thanks,
John
