Reviews
While most parts of the consultation went on very well as the surgeon responded to most of my many questions, I feel like I need to get a second opinion on this. I have heard that hair transplanting can lead to more thinning of hair during old age and I need to be sure of that and more before I proceed with the procedure.
I loved the consultative session with Dr. Panine because he was very honest with me. After considering my medical history and the available options, he clearly made me aware of the fact that I was too young to have a hair transplant because the pattern with which my hair was thinning was not yet clear. To avoid mistakes, he recommended that I wait a little longer and come back for reassessment.
