Things to consider before choosing the best hair transplant clinic? 

Some of the things that you can add to your filtering criteria are as below: 

1. Academic profile and experience of the Surgeon: Any surgery is as good as the surgeon performing it. Similarly, if in case you want to choose the best clinic, your search should consider who is the in-house surgeon and what is his/her profile, experience, accreditation, reputation and success stories. The hair transplant surgeon should be highly qualified and ideally be super specialized in cosmetic surgery with necessary certification by authority boards. A strong academic profile ensures good content knowledge, informed decision making, better complication handling ability. Next comes the experience and expertise of the surgeon which ensures better treatment planning and wide exposure. 

2. Infrastructure of the Clinic: Better technology always aids the surgical skills of the surgeon and enhances the outcome of the procedure. So, a clinic which is well equipped with latest technology, a well trained support team and strict hygiene and safety protocols not only ensures ease of procedure but also improves the outcome quality. The training of technical team is another important parameter because hair grafts are extremely delicate and should be handled with utmost care to avoid any damage to them, because the quality of hair follicles transplanted directly affects the quality of results. 

3. Reputation of the clinic: Reputation is something which is earned gradually with consistent high quality results and is easily verifiable these days in the world of social networking. So, please spare out some time to go through past patient reviews, visit facebook groups, forums, interact with past patients and see the patient gallery for before and after pictures. 

4. Single surgeon vs branded clinics: It should be preferred for the sake of continuity of treatment and establishing genuine results that the procedure should be continued with a single surgeon of choice. Single surgeon clinics have that advantage over branded clinics where doctors are on payroll and keep rotating frequently. Cost factor: It is mentioned at the last because one should consider this parameter only when all the above parameters are met. It is advisable then to figure out whether the cost being quoted is affordable to you or is being quoted extravagantly.
