Hi Runner, I considered travelling abroad for a cheaper procedure but when I weighed up the other factors such as quality and comfort, I felt that a reasonable UK price point was worth paying.
My experience of the Hair Dr is that he genuinely cares about the customer experience so he focuses on ways to minimise the discomfort- for example the administering the anaesthetic without using a needle (phew!). It’s also worth noting the Dr Arshad had a transplant last year at his own clinic so he knows what it feels like to be on the receiving end.
A friend of mine went to Turkey and his experience sounded more like he was on a conveyer belt so the clinics could maximise the numbers of procedures performed each day - the after care was minimal and he was in considerable discomfort for a few days. Also I would never say this to him but whilst his looks good, I think mine looks better 😀.
The Hair Dr takes time to get the best result with the least pain - for me that was worth paying a little extra for (and I got to sleep in my own bed on the day of the procedure 😀).
