Medical tourism has become widely accepted over the years. This also reflects in the hair transplant industry where patients are interested in going abroad for the procedure. They are finding that the cost is more affordable on top of the rising quality in health care and practice in other countries. So, this leads many to question whether Getting a Hair Transplant Abroad a Good Idea?

Europe, the US and Australia are among the countries that have long been regarded to provide premiere hair transplant results. But it is true that other countries are coming at the forefront in providing quality results. The option of going abroad to find a cheaper alternative becomes more appealing because the procedure is not covered by insurance. In some cases it may be covered by some providers, but only when it is done as a reconstructive surgery for injuries like burns.

Third world countries are also getting attention not only in the rising quality of service and results, but also in pegging these procedures at cheaper prices. This includes countries like India, Thailand and the Philippines.
