Regular Member taza Posted December 31, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 I'm looking to get a hair transplant between Feb 26th to March 3rd. These are the only dates I have off in the next 20 months. Does anyone know if any top clinics got availability during these dates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member EvoXOhio Posted December 31, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 You’d have to call those clinics and ask them... But generally a top clinic won’t have availability that quickly unless they had a cancellation and no waiting list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there will be a last minute cancellation and they can squeeze you in then, but don't count on that. What do you do for work? I got my 1st hair transplant when I knew I would have some downtime between a contract job ending and my next one starting. For my last 2 hair transplants, I literally just straight up told coworkers I was having a HT. Its almost 2022, hair transplants are really not a stigma anymore.

Regular Member taza Posted December 31, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 I will contact a few clinics. If any clinic is reading this post and got an availability during these dates, please let me know 🙏. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member taza Posted December 31, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 I work for the NHS with covid patients and I also run my own business. I'm very busy at the moment the only time I got off is the above dates. Hopefully I could find a good clinic to fit me in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted December 31, 2021 Valued Contributor Share Posted December 31, 2021 I would contact the clinics that you have narrowed down to be the right one/s for your hair loss needs. Inform them of your situation and your 20 month weight and as you have stated ask to be put down as stand by during your upcoming availability. The last thing you want though is to go to a clinic/surgeon just on the priority of time. It's annoying I know but remember that a hair transplant is for life. Wishing you all the best!

Senior Member Fue3361 Posted December 31, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 Contact a bunch and ask to be put on waiting list for cancelations on those dates. Then wait and see if you get lucky. Check out my journey here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member taza Posted December 31, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 Thanks for the advice everyone. I have already contacted a few clinics and planning to contact a few more in the next couple of days. Hopefully I'll get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member AlexMeister21 Posted December 31, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 There'd probably be a good amount of rescheduling going on with clinics because of Omicron, but it'd be pretty hard to get an appointment in within that specific week. You'd just have to ask around with clinics you're interested in and perhaps check up on them to see if there have been any cancellations.

Senior Member pkipling Posted December 31, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2021 As the others have said, I doubt you're going to find something that soon - and especially not with such a narrow window of availability. I know Dr. Mohebi's first availability is currently December of 2022. However, cancellations do happen (especially with COVID, extra travel restrictions, cancelled flights, etc.), and I imagine every surgeon has a waiting list of people to reach out to when that happens. If you have any surgeons you're interested in, I would check to see what the process is to get on their waiting list. I imagine many of them do it the same way Dr. Mohebi does, in that you'll need to have a consultation first and go through the official process of scheduling an appointment - and then they can add you to the waiting list of people to call should something open up. Lastly, I know timing is important, but I would highly encourage you to make sure you don't rush into this just for the sake of getting a hair transplant in that window. Choosing a surgeon and scheduling a procedure is something that should be done with careful consideration, and typically speaking, rushing into one isn't the best thing to do. I am a patient advocate for Dr. Parsa Mohebi in Los Angeles, CA. My views/opinions are my own and don't necessarily reflect the opinions of Dr. Mohebi and his staff.

Senior Member JoeMan Posted January 3, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted January 3, 2022 Unfortunately I believe most would require a down payment just to get on the list. At least this was my experience. The clinics I contacted provided me with potential dates, but couldn't lock them in until you paid about 1k€. Good luck in your search though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
