More than 650,000 people from all over the world go for a hair transplant procedure every year. In 2019 the record was even higher, with almost 735,000 people who underwent a hair transplant procedure. Since genetic hair loss affects men more than women, surveys say that 87% of the people who go for a hair transplant are men. 

A hair transplant is a safe and proven procedure to fight hair loss problems. However, the results of a hair transplant may vary for every individual depending upon the causes, stage of hair fall, hair type and quality, surgical procedure, the experience of the surgeon, and various other factors. 

In this article, we have tried to present some patients’ reviews of their hair transplant experiences. These reviews are collected from various reliable sources on the internet and we have tried to include reviews that you can trust, from real people just like you.

Reviews from foreign citizens

Hair transplant standards are regulated by law, but the prices are quite expensive in countries like the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, and other European countries. Those who cannot afford to pay a heavy amount for the procedure in their own country travel to other countries where hair transplants  are comparatively cheaper. The comments below are included from both types of patients, those who did transplants in their own country and those who flew to other popular medical tourism destinations.

Francis Amsellem, France

Hello, I would like to inform you of my personal experience. After having hesitated for a long time to proceed with a hair transplant, I decided in December 2018 to do the operation. The results are spectacular and I am completely satisfied, I could not imagine such a success. Even my hairdresser in France was surprised to see no trace or scar. The perfect result plus the cost of the intervention was very very reasonable. I highly recommend it.

Simo, France

Doctor’s team advised me well before my arrival, the day of the intervention doctor and his team were professional and factual on my case by explaining to me and asking me for my opinions at all stages, I underline on this occasion the quality of care and the attention of his assistants as well. I am at rest after my transplant and I heal very well.

Antares Bennett, US

I’m African-American, so from the start that makes selecting a Surgeon who’s experienced with curly hair roots of utmost importance and thus narrows the options.

I had my first (of 2 stages) FUE HT at an institution in Istanbul, and although I’m pleased to have hair in zones 1 and 2 – versus being bald, I was disappointed to learn that too much hair was extracted from the sides and back during the first procedure. Again, this was due to my hair type and exaggerated abilities from the facility, as well as reduced costs. Can't really trust the cheap procedures.

George R , UK

Just one week since I had my FUE procedure and so far so good. I look forward to seeing the results over the coming months.

Ronny, China
I was always skeptical about this but my hair is amazing now. I am now at an 8-month stage and my hair is back. My hairline looks good and I still have a long way to go, so it's only going to get better and better. Thicker and thicker. I am sure that by 12 months it will be amazing.

Sean B, Germany

Day 3 of my FUE procedure, have had no pain and a little swelling. I found the procedure to be a first-class experience, with an easy, calm process. If you are thinking about a hair transplant, go for it.

Jonathan E, UK

I carried out a lot of research prior to my procedure, especially into the doctor’s expertise and experience of each clinic I was considering. Dr. X, London stood out as by far the most qualified and experienced in every aspect for me. 8 months on, I couldn't be more happy and satisfied with the results.

Paul, London 

I would just like to say that it's just over 3 months after the procedure and I am very impressed, hair transplant results exceed all my expectations.

Blake 

My friend who paid for both of our packages in X clinic, Bangkok looks miserable 4 days after the procedure. He had no PRP as well which was clearly mentioned in the package. His scalp is red and sore. We paid for a “VIP package” and now our aftercare is totally ignored. 

Ronin

I wrote German Estetica exactly a year after the operation, due to the fact that out of 3 who did the hair transplant together in that same clinic,  2 of us did not receive the result they "promised". The last of us had a decent result, but still nowhere near what other clinics provide and what the pictures stated on their website shows.

The "certificate" stated that if the result are not as desired, or the hair did not grow out, we were entitled to a free follow-up operation or the money back.

I have been in contact with German Estetica, who refuses any kind of refund. In order to get another transplant for free, they require a blood test done at their clinic again - after that, they can have a look at the options for another transplant.

I have pictures of everything and my hope is that you as a reader will be careful of the frauds who lure you with their cheap packages.

Reviews of people from India

India is also a considerable location for hair transplants. Not just Indian citizens, but people from all over the world have started to visit India for hair transplant procedures. Nepalese and Indian people have similar genes, so the body’s reaction and results of a hair transplant are also similar for both countries’ citizens. There are some best clinics and some worst clinics in India. The patient should be able to identify which one is which.

Manoj

I consulted with Dr. Kavish Chouhan and have undergone a hair transplant by him in May 2014. I must say he is the best hair transplant surgeon in Delhi. He took care of everything throughout the procedure. I’m very much satisfied with the results. I recommend all visit him for a hair transplant.

Aditya

I am 26 and have Norwood 3 vertex hair loss. I have thin hair in the front, middle, and top of my head. I wanted to get a hair transplant in all three regions. The surgeon asked me not to get a hair transplant in the middle because I still had much hair there. He also told me that any transplant in the middle would hurt the existing hair in the long run. Hair transplant clinics charge money based on the number of grafts required. Instead of recommending me to get more grafts, they rather persuaded me to get less. They put my welfare above their profit. I am really thankful to my surgeons for that. The transplant went great. My hair looks great.

Sanjib K

The best part about visiting a reputable clinic is they do a proper diagnosis to eradicate the problem (hair loss) and I am totally satisfied with the results. I highly recommend researching the doctor and clinic well before a hair transplant. 

Ujjwal

I am 28 yrs old and had started growing balding patterns since 21. I went to a reputed clinic for hair transplantation for restoring my hair. Not only did the consultant understand my problem but also gave assurance that the treatment would not affect my current life and would give natural results for a lifetime. The results were given as promised.

Suryajeet

I was overpromised and underdelivered. This clinic had promised me 4000 grafts of hair transplant at a fair price, which I considered a good offer then. I paid my fees and got the hair transplant done, but my transplants looked nowhere more than 1500 grafts. I consulted two other dermatologists and they confirmed I had been scammed. I am not sure who to believe. 

Reviews of patients from AROGIN, Nepal

Nepal is flourishing in hair transplant surgery recently. Although a late starter, Nepalese clinics are already building a good reputation for hair transplants and cosmetic procedures in the international communities too. Let's go through what the patients say about their experiences. 

Manoj Gautam, 29years old

You truly build our confidence and add more happiness to our lives. I cannot express how happy and confident I have been to see my transformed looks immediately after transplantation.

Thank you Arogin Team.

Gynendra Bidari

I'm very pleased with the service provided by Arogin Hair Transplant Clinic. Like every bald person, I was very inquisitive about what I must have to do and where I must have to approach, so that I could get rid of my baldness. I started to visit many dermatologists and hair experts from different sources. I had been through various skin care and hair transplantation centers as well. I felt here at Arogin, the cost is worth it & the result-based treatment for the first time in Nepal is done. Mind blowing technical team with good pieces of equipment and superb consultation of my problems.

So I request all the concerned people to visit Arogin health care and research center to consult the problems of alopecia or general baldness and remember this is not a commercial advertisement. Visit and experience it.

Sudip Bohara

Losing my hair at the age of 22 was not fortunate. I still remember the day I visited your clinic. I left with something I hadn’t had since my hair began falling out years earlier, hope. There is no price that can be put on that feeling.

Thank you Arogin for giving me back my self-esteem.

Krishna Raja Mahat

I was wondering what if I go completely bald, my hair fall was quite aggressive & I was very much worried about it. I tried almost all the medicines available in the market, allopathy, homeopathy & ayurvedic. None of them gave significant changes. I went to India once to visit a Doctor there & learned about hair transplant services. Traveling To & Fro was not that easy for me because of the limitations of time. Later somehow I came in contact with a team of Doctors willing to start this service in Nepal. I had my hair transplantation 8.5 months back & now my result has become an example across the country.

Thank you team for this wonderful gift, happy to be young again.

Damodar Rimal

What can I say? Arogin is the one and only clinic which is able to provide quality hair transplantation services in Nepal. To be honest, I am 100% satisfied with the service that I have received from Arogin. I rate 10/10 for Arogin's service. No one believes that it's transplanted hair other than the one who has seen me bald before because it looks completely natural. 

Thank you Arogin & the whole team for such miracles.

Dr. Pawan Sharma, Consultant Psychiatrist

I had my Hair Transplantation procedure by a team of doctors from Arogin Healthcare. The Hair Restoration procedure itself is fascinating & interesting. I found it very easy & now my results are awesome, it's impossible to distinguish my original hair & transplanted hair. They are growing normally like others. Thanks to team Arogin. Happy to find Hair Transplant Service in Nepal.

Nutan Marasini, Software Engineer

Before my Hair Transplantation, I used to hide my receding hair with my smart hairstyle. Even though the bald area was not much visible, I was worried & seeking some permanent solution to regain my youth. When a distant brother of mine asked me for Hair Transplantation, I was a bit skeptical about doing it in Nepal. But when I went through the consultation from Hair Transplant Experts in Arogin Hair Clinic, I was 100% convinced & now I am glad I made a right choice by not flying to some expensive destination.

My results are beyond my expectations.
