Dubai 'dominates hair transplant field' in ME

DUBAI, December 15, 2015

Dubai is well positioned to be one of the best cities in the Middle East to offer the most advanced techniques and solutions in the hair transplant field, according to an expert.
 
Dr Dimitrios Ziakas, general manager, Direct Hair Implantation (DHI), Al Burj Medical Center in Business Bay, said that the emirate scores high in credibility and confidence compared to other destinations, including Istanbul.
 
About 60 per cent of the male population in the UAE is expected to experience some kind of hair loss in their lifetime, while the average global figure is 40 per cent, he said.
 
"Many of these patients go outside the UAE for hair transplants, due to lack of awareness about the world class hair transplant services available within the country. However, such surgery visits are known to have unpleasant and poor results, lost investment and loss of time," said Dr Ziakas.
 
"The financial aspect is really the same or sometime higher when they add the travel and accommodation expenses. Some patients also fall into the trap of deceptive advertisements. The fact is that it is very difficult to find a trust-worthy and result-oriented clinic with accountability while flying in to a new country a patient never lived in," he said.
 
With over 30 affiliated centres worldwide and over 100,000 satisfied clients, DHI Medical Group has been at the forefront of bringing to the region pioneering technologies and techniques in hair transplant, direct scalp micropigmentation, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), and eyebrow restoration.
 
“The hair solutions here in Dubai offer many advantages, being cost-effective due to the highly competitive market, higher quality as more skilled specialists are working in the field locally, lower risks due to the advanced tools used, and the availability of service and follow up,” said Dr Ziakas.
 
“The Dubai market is set to experience dramatic growth, as larger number of patients visit the city seeking world-class hair restoration services,” he added. - TradeArabia News Service
