However, many people fear going for a hair transplant consultation, either out of embarrassment or because they don’t know what to expect. Some of the things you can expect during this first visit with the experts of hair transplant o Cancun Hair Restoration:

ASSESSMENT OF HAIR LOSS

During the hair transplant consultation, the doctor will check your scalp to assess the type of hair loss you have. There is no other way to know what type of treatment is ideal for you. With this evaluation, it will also be possible to determine how many hair grafts are necessary to achieve a more natural look.

Although the rate of suitable candidates for hair transplant is high, without a scalp examination it is impossible to determine that this is the best solution for you. In some cases, the hair loss is not as serious or is a temporary process. For these types of cases there are non-surgical treatments that the doctor will tell you about during the hair transplant consultation.

MEDICAL HISTORY

Medical history is very important before making a decision. In it, it is possible to know previous diseases, medical treatments or genetic factors that may have an influence on hair loss. Physical examination during the hair transplant consultation is important, but consideration of prior medical factors is essential. In this way, it will be possible to suggest the ideal treatment for you.

SUGGESTED QUESTIONS DURING THE HAIR TRANSPLANT CONSULTATION

Once the doctor completes the review and recommends the best treatment for you in the hair transplant consultation, we recommend asking the following questions besides the many doubts that you have about the procedure or the other treatments of hair restoration:

  • What are the risks of the treatment?
  • What benefits will the chosen treatment bring?
  • Should you prepare before the operation?
  • What care should you have after the operation?

During the hair transplant consultation, it can also be a platform to discuss the cost of the suggested treatment. A hair transplant abroad may be an option in this case because, in addition to paying for the treatment, you will enjoy a few days off, away from your daily routine.
