hairhelp2021 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Hi there, I am looking for a hair transplant that would be $10 000 or less. I am open to anywhere globally with preference in North America (but I know that Turkey or Europe will probably be the only options for me) - I was going to get a hair transplant in Turkey but cancelled after seeing bad reviews in this forum. I have a 10 000 budget not because I want to cheap out, but because that's about as much as I can afford. If I can't get a good option, then I'll simply delay until I have more money.

Regular Member gatorNic Posted January 12, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted January 12, 2022 Missing too much info. While 10k is not alot in the US, it could be doable depending on the details. If you are doing FUT with 2500 grafts or less you could do it. FUE would be a low amount of grafts for that. There are certainly still good places internationally, since you were already going to Turkey. Glad you canceled on a bad one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted January 12, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted January 12, 2022 I would do this back to front. I would spend as much time as you need finding a surgeon who turns out a huge volume of excellent work on patients who have similar hair and hair loss as yours. I would then see how much this will cost you. If it’s within your budget then that’s a bonus. If not I would continue to save up until you have the funds.

Senior Member deeznuts Posted January 12, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted January 12, 2022 You should just go to Europe. The cost is very different but the quality isn't. How many grafts are recommended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like others have said, do your research. Contact a lot of of the recommend people from this forums list and see what they say. If you already have $10k saved up, then that's a healthy amount i think but saving up a bit more could give you even further options. Also, you might in that time see help by using medication and using other treatments to stabilise hair loss. You can share pictures here with your face blurred for some further assistance and post what your goal is. Edited January 12, 2022 by NARMAK Spelling 1 Follow my first Hair Transplant Journey!

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 12, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 12, 2022 Can you share pictures? 10k should be enough to go to a good clinic. But depending on the number of grafts. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.

Senior Member Britanium Posted January 12, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted January 12, 2022 Yeh unless the OP is a higher Norwood and needs a lot of grafts then he should have the budget for a decent clinic. But like @Gatsbyhas mentioned it’s important to find the right Clinic/Dr suited to your needs and then see if it’s within your budget 👍🏽 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahal Hair Transplant Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Hairhelp, I understand your concerns about price but be careful. The most common things many prospective patients look for are actually the last things you should consider. These include price and location. Most people want to go to the closest doctor for the cheapest price. And while in some cases, patients might get lucky - it is far better to go to a physician with a stellar reputation for producing outstanding results regardless of the price then going to an unknown, local surgeon that may end up leading you to need repair surgery. I do truly understand that people have to work within their budget and people have to be realistic. But on the other hand, hair transplant surgery is an elective, cosmetic procedure. Therefore, I suggest doing research, finding a surgeon that you are impressed with and then doing what you need to do to save the money to afford the procedure that will give you the best results. Also, many patients are not “one and done“ and therefore, may need subsequent procedures to meet their long-term goals. After all, male pattern baldness is progressive and even if you’ve stabilized your hair loss, more than one procedure may be required anyway. The above is just food for thought while you continue your research. I’m not suggesting that $10,000 isn’t enough as I don’t know the specifics of your situation, your current hair loss, your goals etc. Just be careful.
