Hi Ildjarn,

It is my general feeling that the best surgical hair transplantation surgeons are probably in the United States (and/or maybe Europe). Probably in the biggest U.S. cities too, such as New York and Los Angeles.

To give you an example, I just picked up my local phone book and looked up "Hair Implants." I cannot vouch for any of the surgeons, but among the ads with websites are:

www.hair-transplant.com
www.sarasotahairtransplant.com
www.foundhair.com
www.bosley.com

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Where do you think are the best doctors that I can find for this kind of thing? There aren't any that I would trust in my country for sure but I'm ready to travel anywhere to get this done but need the sufficient information before making any kind of big decision.

Thanks! :)

Really? Hmm... well, then you may want to talk with doctors who perform the surgery.

Yes it does, because it is (real hair).

Well, the wishing and dreaming is easy. Accepting the reality that that just isn't realistic is the hard part.

Living in a third world country while trying to "live up" to (the unappealing side of) the hair standards of the so-called first-world.

Self-acceptance is a highly underrated trait.
