What to Look For

Since specific training is not yet required to perform hair transplant surgery, it’s important to look for certain points to make sure you’re aligning yourself with a quality surgeon.

• Ask what type of credentials the surgeon does have. What is his background? What type of medical training does he have?

• Ask about the specific hair transplant training he or she has, and from where?

• Ask to see before and after photos of hair transplant surgeries he or she has performed.

• Look for an office or clinic that is clean and professional-looking. Does it seem organized? Did everyone, including the doctor answer all of your questions?

• Do the surgeons take part in continuing education such as seminars and courses that introduce new techniques and procedures in the world of hair transplant surgery?

• Is the office and the surgeon clear and up front about the cost of the procedure? There is no reason for hidden costs to show up on the final invoice.

With a procedure that is so personal, and so important to the men and women who get it, finding a reputable practitioner is extremely important. Seager is a recognized and trusted name in the hair transplant industry, and it is a great starting point for your journey.
