The Canadian Institute of Hair and Scalp Specialists comments on the skyrocketing number of hair transplants around the world.

The Canadian Institute of Hair and Scalp Specialists (www.CanadianHair.ca), a Toronto-based organization offering hair loss treatment for over 25 years, is weighing in on the increasing number of patients seeking hair transplants.

According to health-based search engine WhatClinic.com, U.K. hair loss clinics have seen a 165% surge in searches since 2014, with one in 10 searches being performed by individuals aged 18 to 24. This is three times the amount of similar searches done a year ago.

"These numbers aren’t particularly surprising," says Ken Robson, Founder of the Canadian Institute of Hair and Scalp Specialists. "Clinics around the world have been reporting increased interest in recent years, including here in Canada."

WhatClinic.com also claims that there has been an increase of 230% in inquiries regarding clinics overseas, with some of the popular destinations being Poland, India, and Turkey. In 2014, 36,000 patients from the U.K. alone journeyed to these destinations seeking affordable hair transplants. In addition, hair clinics in India have reported a massive spike in patients seeking surgery with an increase of 594%.

“While travelling overseas for a hair transplant has grown in popularity in recent years, once airfare, accommodations, and other costs are added to cost of the procedure, it's much more affordable to go to a local clinic,” Robson concludes. "Plus, with the aftercare, it's better to be able to drive home following the procedure instead of spending hours on a plane."
