I had an organic FUI hair transplant last week. My experience was a very positive one whereby I was treated in a one on one capacity. Picked up from the airport, lovely hotel, driven to the clinic and brought home. From the moment I entered the clinic I was met with the warmest of welcomes by very attendant staff. Every step of the process was explained to me in great detail and my meeting with the doctor was a very professional one. Dr Aksoz is a thorough gentleman who loves his work. The surgical process was very lengthy but my comfort seemed to be a priority, it was painless and the facilities were what you would expect from a top class clinic. All the staff made a great effort to make me feel relaxed and well informed. Time will be the true judge as I wait for my newly implanted hair to grow, I will review again in six months. John

5 tips to choose the cheapest place for hair transplant
Often people think that cheap hair replacement means poor quality and are afraid to have the procedure at a lower price. Of course, it may take place. However, there are a lot of great offers that can save your money and bring the great result. Below you can find some recommendations, that may help you to choose the best place for cheap hair transplant and minimize risks:
- Check the clinic's certification. You need to get maximum information about a particular hair transplant center. It must have certifications and accreditation that approve the high standards of medical services.
- Doctor's experience. Always check a doctor's CV and find info about his/her education, experience, additional training, and international practice. Some highly-experienced doctors may have thousands of hair transplant on his/her account.
- Choose the most appropriate country. While selecting the cheapest country to get a hair transplant, it is important to understand which region is the most appropriate for you depending on travel time and budget. In some cases, the ticket charges to some countries can increase the total price of hair transplant significantly. Bookimed Care Department provides an assistance to book tickets and accommodation at the lowest price. So, you save time and money.

What does the affordable hair transplant cost depend on?
The price for a hair transplant is individual. Some clinics (like Turkish ones) offer hair transplant package prices, so a patient does not need to worry about any additional charges. But other facilities often provide the initial hair transplant cost, so the final expenses are often higher. There are such factors which affect the hair transplant price:
- Price policy of the country/clinic. If you want to find the cheapest hair transplant in the world, pay attention to countries with affordable price policies. Obviously, that the USA, Canada, Germany, Switzerland and other countries offer expensive medical services because the income of local citizens and social standards of living are very high. Choosing Turkish, Indian, Thai, or hospitals of Eastern Europe, you can save 20-50 % of your money.
- The hair transplant technique. The most common hair transplant methods are FUE and FUT (or strip). The last one is cheaper than FUE because of scarring possibility and higher injury rate. The robotic FUE-ARTAS will be the most expensive one due to the high accuracy (up to 99%) and the greater number of grafts transplanted per one procedure.
- Baldness stage. The higher hair loss grading is, the more grafts are required. The hair transplant will get much cheaper if your area of baldness is small. Only a doctor can say the volume of operation and calculate the final cost.
- Plastic surgeon's experience. As a rule, reputable doctors ask for higher fees. You can choose a specialist with less outstanding reputation and get a cheap hair transplant. But previously, carefully read their CV and patient reviews.
What does the low-cost hair transplant include?
In most of the cases, the hair transplant price includes:
- the procedure itself
- doctor's fees
- required medical consumable materials.
Some clinics offer hair transplant packages which cover expenses for transfer, language assistance, accommodation, and meals. Such "all-inclusive" offers allow saving 10-20% additionally and receiving low-cost hair transplant.
To sum up, the cheapest places for hair transplant without the quality loss are some clinics in India, Turkey, Lithuania, Poland, and the UAE. They have all appropriate certificates that confirm the high level of medical standards available at affordable prices.
