New guy thinking of going to India for hair transplant.
Hi guys!
I am a 36 year old male at a Norwood 6 level of hair loss.
I started noticing hair loss at the age of 19.
I am going to start using rogaine and propecia to try to keep what I have and not lose anymore.
I have been doing research and was initially interested in going to see Hasson and Wong or Bosley, but it is so expensive.
I then came across Forerunners Healthcare of India.
Here is there website:
http://www.forerunnershealthcare.com...al_tourism.php
They offer a 4,000 graft hair transplant for $4,000!
The Doctors names are "Dr Dheeraj Bojwani" and "Dr. Rajesh Rajput".
Does anyone have any experience with this or heard of these Doctors?

Hello Red20,
I don't think its a good idea to fly to India for a cut rate hair transplant. It is probably best to save your money or to finance a hair transplant from a reputable doctor in North America or not to have one at all.

Sounds a little crazy to me. do Americans actually fly to a third world country to have plastic surgery???

I'd highly recommend AGAINST flying to India for a hair transplant. If it goes bad, you'll have no recourse. Once you come home, how could you contact them if you have any issues or problems or need care of any sort? I had a bad experience at a local Bosley, and it was hard enough dealing with that --- and they're in my backyard! I can't imagine what it'd be like if they were in another country. Your best best is Hasson & Wong or any other IAHRS surgeon.
Just my opinion,
TeeJay

Yeah I am leaning towards Hasson and Wong.
I will probably just get financed and bite the bullet.
They do amazing work!

Definitely ... Hasson and Wong have produced great results for patients, like Bobman and Jotronic, who have their pictures posted here. Check them out. I had my HT by Doc Paul McAndrews, in the Los Angeles area. My results are awesome. Good luck, keep us posted.

I’m glad to see that you decided not to travel to India for cosmetic surgery. You’ll be in good hands with Hasson and Wong.

Hi Red.
Good to see you are researching and not jumping straight in.
You say you are a norwood six now,do you have any pictures of your donor area etc and what are you wanting to achieve with your HT.By this i mean are you wanting a good hairline to frame your face or wanting a thinner all over look to gain coverage.
Take care bm.

HI bigmac!
I have been shaving my head for about 6 years now and just started to grow my hair out again, to see what I am working with, and it's not good.
My donor site does seem thin, but we will see when it grows out more. I will post photos when I have more growth.
I am wanting a quality frontal hairline to frame my face and I am fine with a bald spot in the back.
I am actually planning on using "Toppik" for that area anyways.
