I am considering a hair transplant. How do I even begin researching?

Hey guys,

I’ve been looking into getting a hair transplant, but honestly, trying to research clinics has been exhausting. No matter where I look (Google, YouTube, review sites) it feels like everything is just ads in disguise. There are so many paid reviews and sketchy testimonials that it’s hard to know what’s actually real.

I just want to hear from real people who’ve had the procedure. I get that no clinic is perfect, and every surgery has risks, but it’s frustrating when all I see are either flawless 5-star ratings that seem too polished or mixed reviews with no way to tell if they’re legit.

For those of you who’ve either gone through a transplant or done serious research, where did you find trustworthy reviews? Are there any forums or groups where people actually share their experiences without all the marketing nonsense?

Also, are there any big red flags to look for when reading reviews?.

I feel totally stuck right now and don’t know how to move forward.

Thanks!

In my opinion good sources are Reddit (people post a lot of progression pictures), HairRestorationNetwork (good forum, lots of activity), match-medic (very helpful tool which searches the web for independent patient reviews). Plus youtube and tiktok have some good video series. Keep your head up - it gets better :slight_smile:
