Bill - Seemiller Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 thickerhair, Sometimes you get what you pay for...so be careful. Consider top clinics over price...price should be secondary. Be careful also of paying per hair verses per graft. $1 per hair ends up being the same as about $2.20 per graft. Of course, that is still cheap compared to standards...

Senior Member hairbank Posted May 24, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted May 24, 2007 Heed Bill's advice...........with HT's the old "you get what you pay for" saying hold true in almost all cases. I have no idea of the overhead or cost of living in India so maybe $1 per graft is pretty cost effective for the clinic..............who knows, their techs could make wages that are the equivalent of $.25 per hour in the States.

Senior Member YoungGuy Posted May 24, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted May 24, 2007 Don't think about price when thinking about a HT; if you can;t afford the good doctors, you may be happier not having it done in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
