Who are the doctors from Vinci and Dhi? Is Glasgow practice the Glasgow clinic?
5000 is a lot of grafts, have you been told you have this amount available?

Hi, I am going to ask DHI who the surgeon is they have also offered me a cheaper deal to go their clinic in Greece. Vinci offer is their clinic in Malaga.
The Glasgow practice is different from Glasgow clinic


2500 grafts, 5000 hairs
TBH I think I might have narrowed it down to 2 now

Gregors hair transplant that's posted in the section below looks good quality work. He went to Vinci. What are the price differences for Dhi and Vinci comparing them to having surgery in the U.K. or abroad? I presume it's considerable when you factor in hotels and flights.

Although cost is a big issue it should not necessarily be the deciding factor. Competence, medical quality/standards, patient care, artistic awareness are what you will remember as your result matures and over the following years, not the cost.

There will be some fluctuations in cost around the Europe and the world, some are simply down to running costs per country. For example, our Clinics in London and Malaga operate to the same standards of quality and care but Spain has slightly lower operating costs compared to the UK and we can offer this to our patients, with our doctors having worked in both Clinics from time to time.

It can go both ways, a massively inflated cost or hugely lower cost than the average should probably not be taken as an immediate upside but questioned as to why. How many procedures are being performed in a day, what role does the doctor play, are you being quoted hairs or follicular units. Is the cost dictated by the number of procedures, ie. it ´s more about numbers on chairs rather than the care and quality on a personal level.

No one in sound mind would deliberately put themselves in a compromising situation, and research is very important. Your choice of Clinic, regardless of country should be based on quality and having your well-being in mind.

FUE Patient - 2000 Grafts
haha cheers for the shoutout Bastion, pleased so far but it's early doors.

moorpark - Take a look at my thread here http://www.hairlossexperiences.com/view_topic.php?id=8637&forum_id=3&jump_to=62272#p62272

I went with Vinci in London and have had a good experience so far, wrote in a bit of detail about my day, feel free to ask me any questions here or in my thread.

My personal OPINION would be to stay closer to home if you can.

I originally had my surgery booked for Malaga but changed not long before. It wasn't that much more expensive to go to London, yes it is the same standard of work (I think the Doctors go between the clinics, unsure about the technicians though) but I just felt I woulda been stressed out in a foreign country absolutely unfamiliar with my surroundings. Also flying so far with a fresh hair transplant wouldn't be a very nice experience.

A lot of clinics also offer 0% finance deals if you need to use that so a difference of say... £1000..?? Could really be looked at as simply a couple more months payments to essentially be more comfortable and feel more safe.

But having said all that, it's just my personal opinion from my limited experience. Plenty of people travel and plenty stay at home, it really comes down to the individual.
