What is Hair Transplant?
It is a minimally invasive day care surgical procedure which is mostly pain free or complication free if performed by an expert and experienced surgeon. The underlying principle involves harvesting of hair grafts from the donor areas (having permanent roots resistant to DHT – Dihydrotestosterone or androgenic hormones) and placing them artistically at the bald site. The process needs extreme care and finesse specially to prevent damage to hair grafts and to ensure a flawless hairline is designed otherwise the whole result may look like a wig or fake.
Below listed are few basic criteria to choose the best hair transplant surgeon in Delhi:
1. Academic Profile: This includes qualifications, degrees and national or international accreditations earned by the surgeon. Cosmetic surgery in India offers MCh as the highest surgical degree which is considered to be super specialization. Thus, always prefer a surgeon who is MCh in cosmetic surgery as it ensures deep and thorough content knowledge, well designed treatment plans in line with global developments and sound complication handling ability.
2. Reputation: It is the most difficult part for any surgeon to gain, because it is earned not overnight but by a long toil of hard and successful word leading to superior patient feedback/testimonials.Because hair transplant is an extremely aesthetic and precise procedure where patients can have varied expectations, it is very critical and yet difficult to maintain a good reputation. Surgeon’s reputation can be verified using internet by scrolling through past patient reviews, before and after galleries etc. Reputation is also an indirect indicator of the surgical skill level of the surgeon.
3. Experience of the Surgeon: This is a crucial factor too as it ensures real time knowledge of what can go wrong and how it can be avoided. Further, experience also permits the surgeon to apply various tried and tested solutions in the cases. Experience should be measured in terms of 1) No. of cases performed 2) No. of years of practice and 3) Diversity of cases handled
4. Surgeon with own clinic: Always prefer a surgeon with his/her own clinical set up, the reason being that such surgeon would always be ready to walk an extra mile because it is his/her direct reputation at stake. Whereas if a surgeon is merely employed in a branded clinic, the surgeon may do a make shift job and move on.
Also, it being a long term procedure, continuity of treatment with the same surgeon is quite essential which can happen only when you visit a surgeon with his/her own clinic.
5. Technology Enabled: A good surgeon always understands and employs latest technology because he/she is aware that it can multiply the surgical outcomes and can reduce bottlenecks or complications if any. So, his/her clinic would be well equipped with latest equipment, a well-trained team following international protocols and superior hygiene standards.
6. Quality focus instead of cost: As it is hair transplant cost in Delhi is very economical. It costs somewhere around INR 60,000 to INR 400,000 depending on the case. This cost is merely 1/4th or 1/5th of the cost that one might end up paying for a similar quality treatment in the west.
