Senior Member hairlossPA Posted February 5, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted February 5, 2020 I’m curious to know if people think prices in the North America region will ever drop to be comparable to EU? What would need to happen for that to take place? NA surgeons noticing losing (significant) business to overseas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Glenn Charles Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 I do not see the prices here in the US ever matching some of the European countries. I know that there costs especially what they pay the surgical technicians is nowhere near what we pay. If it is only low cost you are looking for you can find some really inexpensive clinics here in the states that offer that. However, be careful you might get what you pay for. 2 Dr. Glenn Charles is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, in the EU it's not illegal for technicians to extract the grafts- this is why they can charge less money. Most of the best surgeons in Europe do not extract grafts, with the exception of a few. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member hairlossPA Posted February 5, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted February 5, 2020 @Dr. Glenn Charles @Melvin-Moderator understood. and I’m not looking for a cheap option. just more so wondering if doctors would cut their own costs and/or pay techs less to save business if eventually they weren’t getting as much traffic as they used to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cost of living in the USA is higher than many other countries, so it will probably always be more expensive than some other places.
