Your Hair Restoration Solution!

Once you’ve decided on hair restoration surgery as a method of dealing with your hair loss, choosing a hair restoration surgeon is your next big decision. It’s important to get as much information as you can in order to make an informed decision. This informed decision is made easier by taking a few simple actions.

1) Meet the Hair Restoration Surgeon

Seems pretty commonsense but you’d be surprised how many people skip this vital step. Oftentimes people settle in speaking with a sales representative or marketing employee about this most important surgical procedure. Though they may be informed of the basic aspects of hair restoration; there is no substitute in speaking with the hair restoration surgeon who is personally going to be performing the procedure. Remember, you are interviewing them. So be sure to find out if you like the hair restoration surgeon, and if you feel like this is a person you can trust. Treatment for a hair transplant can often take months to reach completion, so having a ‘relationship’ with your hair restoration surgeon is important.

2) Ask the Hair Restoration Surgeon who does what?

The more knowledge you have about hair transplantation the better able you will to get your questions answered. Of these perhaps the most important is who is actually going to be performing the procedure. Will the hair restoration surgeon actually be there to do the surgery or will the responsibility fall on some technician? And what about the preparation and implantation of the grafts? Who will be taking care of these? Don’t just assume that because a doctor’s name is on the door that he/she will actually be doing the procedure. Make sure qualified doctors and nurses are taking care of you. At Pistone Hair Restoration, all surgeries are performed by Dr. Pistone!

3) Ask the Hair Restoration Surgeon for a referral.

Some patients feel uncomfortable about asking for this but as the prospective customer you have the ultimate power of saying no to the transaction. Of course the referrals are likely to be positive in nature, this is expected, but what you are most interested in are aspects of the procedure like recovery time and how well the staff took care of the patient’s needs. By getting all of this important information you will not only be able to make an informed choice regarding a hair restoration surgeon but also increase your comfort level going into the procedure.
