  1. Scars are covered in this consent which is great but for me, other things as hair thinning and the need for multiple surgeries in the future are also important risks that needs to be discussed !
  2. I understand that they might not have enough time to discuss everything but they can simply give you information paper or booklet to read before or after seeing the doctor as the ones you get before any other type of surgery !
  3. Off course but my point is about the legal aspect. My understanding is If you develop any side effect /risk after any kind of surgery (not only HT), you can sue the doctor / hospital if it’s not clearly documented in your notes / consent that you were informed about this particular risk. I agree that you need to do your own research but not everyone has the same access to all information and it is still the doctor’s responsibility to make sure that you understand all the possible risks of any surgery before doing it !
  4. Although cosmetic, It is a surgery at end and when you have any surgery you always need to sign a consent form with all possible complications even if they are very rare !
  5. I believe legally the surgeon need to inform the patient about all possible complications even if they are rare?
  6. I know HT is a surgical procedure and needs consenting but from your experience, does any of the HT doctors actually discuss these HT issues with their patients before committing them to this long journey? 1. One HT is usually not enough and most likely you will need multiple HTs as baldness progress. You may also run out of donor hair. 2. Hair density after HT is much less than natural density and most HTs are see through under light. 3. You need to be on long term medications which has some potential side effects for the rest of your life to maintain your hair and slow down future baldness. 4. Transplanted hair might not be permanent and might thin out with time. 5. Transplanted hair most of the time need special care, certain length, combing, styling products and sometimes concealers to look good. 6. HT scars could be obvious if you shave your head or cut your hair short. 7. Transplanted hair might not look exactly like natural hair especially when it’s short.
