Senior Member badger_01 Posted August 12, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 12, 2008 patchy, there are a number of places both in the US and around the world where you can get an HT for a "bargain". While there may be an occasional good or even great result, my personal opinion is that you can't leave something as important as this to chance, so I'd prefer going with a surgeon who has proven results. - badger 3279 grafts with Dr Gabel - 06/12/08 My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Gabel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member HairDew Posted August 12, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 12, 2008 I've looked at http://www.thailandclinics.com/hairbangkok/hair_treatment_bangkok.htm and wow, WHOLE 3 PICTURES showing scalp HT. Nice, I'm on BOARD, sign me up. Seriously though, how can you even vouch for a doctor, who doesn't have MANY grown results in his site? Beats me.

Patchy, If you're looking for the best, I'd hop on a plane to NYC, Minnesota, Virginia, Canada, etc. No offense, but I think there's only one clinic in the UK doing good quality work and that's Farjo. Personally, if I were you I'd go see Dr. Feller in NYC and get him to stick 200 - 300 FUE into that scar. If you P.M. Spex they'll give you a recommendation. On his website, it says they do a "lunchtime special" FUE of 200 grafts for $2,000. I think you would be very unwise to not at least talk to him. 100?

Bill - Seemiller Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Patchy, Though affordability is certainly a concern for patients, it really needs to be one of the last concerns in selecting a surgeon. Cost is not necessarily an indication of the quality of work a surgeon performs, but selecting a surgeon should always be based on consistency of quality results. If your female friend had a hair transplant with this physician, I encourage you to ask her to post her before and after pictures on this forum. I'll be happy to help her block out her face if she's camera shy . Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member wantego Posted August 12, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 12, 2008 Money is a factor for many but I personally wouldnt want to make that the only factor and go somewhere like Thailand. Canada and the USA seem to have many of the best doctors. I dont think I would want to play around with a HT 4374 grafts-7/2/2008-Dr Rahal 485 singles 2336 doubles 1526 triples 16 quads 9809 total hairs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member patchy Posted August 12, 2008 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 12, 2008 i totally agree with all you guys are saying, im only going to see the clinic in sept because im on holiday there, otherwise i wouldnt bother. its just that one person posted saying that they couldnt afford the prices in belguim or somewhere, so i thought id help?... the women i know was really pleased... thats all.. i know her... but i cannot say i have any first hand knowlege ie myself, its for the individual to do there home work..... px....

Senior Member HairDew Posted August 12, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 12, 2008 Patchy, there have been gazillion threads about "The Best Doc"....its all subjective. What you have to look for is CONSISTENCY. Look at many before/during/after photos. Some doctors actually provide videos. Hasson & Wong, Feller, Shapiro etc. But I will give you my list of Docs that I would go to with my eyes closed: Dr. Feller Dr. Alexander Drs. Hasson & Wang Dr. Shapiro just to name a few. It essentially will come down to how comfortable you will be with each one of them. All the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member clay Posted August 13, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted August 13, 2008 I had a hair transplant in Bangkok a month ago. It was less expensive than if I were to go to Canada or the US. I am actually a Canadian, but I am currently living in Asia. I believe that I went to an absolutely amazing doctor who comes in high regards internationally. I had to book three months in advace, as he has a very good reputation. I am only a month into HT, but I am thrilled with the results that I have had to this point. I went to Dr. Damerkerng Pathomivich check him out. He is mentioned on forums with great feedback, I also read in here that he was asked to join the coalition, but wanted to update his websites first. You should have a good experience with this Dr. I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest josh - b Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Patchy, The clinic your friend went to is dr pathomvanichs clinic. The weblink you posted isn't his website, its just a promotional page link on a bangkok dental website.Do a google search and his website will come up. As for dr pathomvanich himself, he is a highly regarded surgeon. The reason your friend got a good result is because she went to a quality doctor. Believe it or not there are good doctors outside of north america Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Smoothy Posted August 16, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 16, 2008 DUDE-- do not do anything with your physical appearance based on a bargin! If you dont have the money-wait and save it. Its better than getting botched! Also a facelift is completely different than a HT. On a facelift they actually cut at the hairline, then remove a strip of skin, then stretch and reattach-- thus the hairline might be lower. Unless you want a facelift, your hairline/HT surgery would be graft placment---if done by doctor who knows what they are doing. Please rethink this decision.

Senior Member RodG Posted October 28, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted October 28, 2010 Hi, Oh well it looks like I'm going to regret my HT with DHT Clinic for the rest of my life . Seriously though I had my HT in mid august 2010 and everything is going along really well. The doctors were professional and so were the assistants. Doctor Path has consistent good results. I travelled from Australia and I'm unaware of any doctor who is recommended from my country. Regards Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member rocketmas Posted August 17, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2011 many countries are cheaper due to exchange rate conversion and cost of living. It has nothing to do with the quality of treatment. i am in India and have lived in US for many, many years. I get better, personalized treatment in less time than i would take to reach a live voice with an Insurance company in the US, and for far less. Granted US would be better if I needed to see a super-specialist for a serious illness. But one has to do his background research ,and know his way around in such countries.
