Are you concerned about hair loss?
Hair transplant surgery helps you grow new hair. It looks and feels natural, because it is. During a hair transplant, healthy hair follicles are taken from elsewhere in your scalp and transplanted to thinning or bald areas. As those follicles take root, new hair growth follows in the treated zone.
If you want a Las Vegas hair transplant, you’ve probably noticed you have lots of options.
Before you set an appointment or even visit for a consultation, though, it’s important for you to do your research. Hair loss isn’t a life sentence, but not every so-called hair transplant specialist has the skills or knowledge to deliver the best results. It is just that simple.
No matter how your hair looks today, it’s not too late for a Las Vegas hair transplant. But it is always safer, less expensive, and more effective to make the right choice the first time. That begins with the kind of research into hair restoration you’re doing right now.
To get your money’s worth on hair restoration, avoid these mistakes:
MISTAKE #1: Choosing an Inexperienced Hair Transplant Specialist
A qualified hair transplant specialist is a real hair restoration doctor, someone who has gone through medical school. Medical qualifications should include extensive work in dermatology, the health of the skin. They should also include specialization in hair restoration and cosmetic surgery. Be sure that your specialist is board certified and provides ample information about their medical school studies.
MISTAKE #2: Choosing Based Only on Cost
Cost is only one factor in Las Vegas hair restoration. It is crucial to look at the “total package” of skills and services that your specialist brings to the table. It is not wise to search for rock bottom prices, nor should you only work with the specialist who has the highest prices. Experience, good equipment, and confidence are all factors that are worth investing in, but the price should not be astronomical.
MISTAKE #3: Choosing Based on a “Limited Time Offer”
Hair restoration businesses that focus on price will often gin up business by sending a limited time offer to men who follow them on social media or subscribe to their email list. You are not required to get hair restoration within days, but have to start the process. This is usually not a good idea unless you already know the doctor and have planned to get hair transplant surgery for weeks or months.
MISTAKE #4: Not Looking into Testimonials and Reviews
Every legitimate Las Vegas hair restoration clinic has plenty of reviews. It is no longer possible for any company to hide from reviews on impartial third party platforms like Yelp and Google. Be sure to check these out and see what the pros and cons of each specialist are. If a Las Vegas hair transplant firm looks good, double-check with them to see if they have any “before and after” photos you can examine.
MISTAKE #5: Hair Transplant Surgery Without a Consultation
Hair transplant surgery is a medical procedure. Just like any other medical procedure, a doctor should spend time with the patient to know exactly what is reasonable to promise. Some men are considered ideal candidates for hair restoration and some aren’t. If a specialist is too eager to get you in the chair without discussing your options first, then it is a red flag and you should probably look elsewhere.
Experience makes the biggest difference. Dr. Joseph L. Williams is the Medical Director of the Advanced Hair Institute and has more than 15 years’ experience. Schedule a Consultation to get started.
