Hair Transplant In Guatemala

 

Hair implants have consolidated in Guatemala.

 

The hair transplant has become a million-dollar business.  Guatemala to avoid sinking into depression pays whatever it takes to avoid having low self-esteem. There are those who collect more than 40 thousand Quetzal for the treatment. That amount is equivalent to an implant of 2,400 hairs in the front of the head.

 

Androgenetic alopecia, as baldness is better known, generates great insecurity in males, mainly.

 

With 60% growth in the world in the last two years, Hair implants have consolidated  Guatemala.

According to Federal Commission for the Protection of Sanitary Risks in  Guatemala, the doctor who performs this type of procedure must be a specialist in dermatology or reconstructive plastic surgery.

 

Data from the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS), it is estimated that in 2016 635 thousand 189 surgical procedures for hair restoration were performed in the world, 60% more than in 2014.

 

How have hair implant treatment prices changed in Guatemala?

 

In Guatemala, a few years ago the procedure cost at least 120 thousand Quetzal. Today, prices have been reduced due to the growth in demand and they start from 40 thousand Quetzal for 2,500 hairs.

 

How bald are you and will tell you what it costs you in Quetzal?

 

According to the degree of baldness, this will be the cost of the implant. The profits are exorbitant. The ISHRS assures that only in 2016 the global economic spill amounted in total, for its market value, to 73 thousand 875 million 979 thousand 169 Quetzal, 4 thousand 166 million 721 thousand 893 dollars, and 3 thousand 666 million 715 thousand 266 euros.

 

What are the places in the world where the most hair transplants are done?

 

The regions that performed the most surgeries in 2016, according to the ISHRS, were Asia, with 195,284; The Middle East, with 149 thousand 400, and the United States, with 133 thousand 136. In Latin America, 65 thousand 930 were carried out.

 

One example, Turkey's worldwide reputation in the field of hair transplantation transcends its entirety. In 2018, the sector generated more than a billion dollars (880 million euros) in turnover.

 

In that region, every year, about 100 men, mainly from Arab countries, travel to Istanbul to benefit from the experience of Turkish doctors in the field of hair implants and their prices between 1,500 and 2,500 euros per graft, depending on the clinic and the size of the operation. For comparison, a hair transplant costs 4 thousand euros in France.

 

In fact, the hair implant business is attracting more and more Western European tourists to Turkey, many of them French.

 

There is no single and fixed price in Guatemala, it depends a lot on the number of follicular units transplanted, according to the needs of the patient, the number of hours in the operating room. There are patients who need half a day and others, two full days.

 

The transplant operation is carried out with its corresponding sedation and subsequent follow-up of one year, with periodic reviews and the treatments that are required (plasma, carboxytherapy).

 

In the end, if you decide to go to the other side of the world or stay in Guatemala to get hair, you should consider that there is no single and fixed price, it depends a lot on the number of follicular units transplanted, according to your needs.
