Assure Clinic HT reviews?

[baldbalderbaldest]

Just started consulting for HT and started with Assure. They have several branches in Mumbai, Gujarat and now in Dubai. Have done around 17k HTs.

Mine could be NW5-6 with crown area where utmost care needs to be given.

Went in thinking may need 2k-3k grafts but was told about around 7.5k-8k grafts in 5-6 sittings for full hair restoration fore scalp,mid and crown section each done by a doctor and PRP included. (3k-3.5k for crown)

I told them i do not want to use any medication(fina,mino) and they said they do not use them in their treatments and results are all without medications.

Cost is coming around 4-4.5k USD...does anyone have any experience with Assure Clinic?

Also is 7k-8k grafts ok for a first time transplant?

There’s unfortunately not many reviews for other clinics outside a select few here but that’s either this forum isn’t popular enough or the patients are selfish and won’t share here.

Thanks.. thats what i thought..also makes me a little skeptical if the site hasnt been taken over by these clinics for "shilling" their HTs. Due diligence in place. I have though made a list of other clinics as well which are more featured in this group and will take a look at them as well.

Well, there’s clear biases here for and against certain clinics and countries by users here but no, afaik the recommended clinics are actually good. There’s always going to be an element of shilling or selling you on something but I mean that’s not a negative thing and quite natural if it’s about good clinics and how the forum runs keeping up with costs. 

There are definitely a ton of high quality clinics outside the recommended list here by admins or users but the difficult thing is knowing if they’re good or a scam whereas you can trust this forum’s list. 

Yeah best to do your research and make your own mind up. I actually wish people posted their results from more clinics so we would have more choices. At the end of the day it’s moving hairs not rocket science so the actual good clinics definitely aren’t limited to 20 or 30 over the world for sure

I would google every variation you can think of for "assure hair transplant review" as well as searching for the name of the doctor....if you know the name of the doctor that would perform your surgery. 

The problem with clinics having multiple locations is they often work based on the brand name rather than a doctor. I went to Feller Medical and my transplant was done by Dr Feller - there was a clear 10+ year track record of results, reviews and industry expertise online. 

If you go with a brand name, who is the person putting their name to your result? I'm not saying that brand names or multiple locations are necessarily bad things, but it's something to be very cautious about and requires more research and verification.

If you can't find anything online and can't be told anything about the doctor, that would be a red flag. 5-6 sittings for 3,500 grafts sounds strange.

Thanks..a good suggestion to search for the doctors reviews instead of clinics.. i have tried to search for reviews for Assure Clinic but found few..they did have a list of celebs who have done HT at their clinics with video as well and the Infra does seem good. Just vary of the number of reviews if the 17k transplants have been done.

The dr's at the location where i will be going is Dr Mohsina Dastan and Dr. Rishi Patel. Just found basic search hits for them instead of full fledged reviews apart from the Google reviews.

Also its actually 5-6 sitting for upto 8k grafts, i frankly was not concerned about my hair going from the fore-scalpe area as it is thinning but not at the stage where my crown is but they did say that i would need another HT for that area and this would cover the full hair restoration.

This is just the start of the journey..will be checking other avenues as well.

Here's what i found on Mohsina Dastan. This person was a dentist and 2 years later a hair transplant doctor? Another big thing to look out for is whether a doctor offers any other types of surgery. To be an expert in hair transplants you need to do ONLY hair transplants for 10 years or more....you can't do a hair transplant today and spend the next day doing root canals in people's mouths.  

My advice would be to avoid the clinic and check out the recommended list here. Eugenix is the logical choice in your part of the world.

Oh and another thing, although it's easy to be impressed by, celebrity endorsements don't really mean much. Of course a celebrity will get the best treatment - because it's free advertising. Find clinics who treat every patient like a celebrity - which means lots and lots of great results.

Yes i found it odd as well, BDS done and then PG in HTs.

I think i have found better reviews of the Clinic where founding members operate from instead of other branches. Also applies to other popular clinics.

Ofcourse the celebrity endorsement cannot be taken at face value. They do get founders mostly to do the surgery with utmost care.

Eugenix does seem like the logical choice ruling out Assure(if doing outside of the main branch) and Medispa. Have sent email to Juan as well but he is booked till 2024
