"I do not recommend at all. Much better options in the market."

"My experience getting a hair transplant at DHI CLINIC PANAMA was great! The team Dr. Juan and his assistant nurses Julissa and Angelica took great care of me from beginning to end. I felt cared for personally. Everyone was friendly and paid great attention to make sure I was comfortable and knew what to do or not to do for the transplant to go well. And they kept me up to date. I was a little nervous going in but all that went away when I spoke to Gustavo (manager), very professional guy by the way, world standard I have to say. He made me feel at ease and treated me like a VIP the entire time. I was also impressed by the cleanliness and just meticulous attention to medical standards. As a way to show my appreciation I am recommending the place to anyone who asks about my new look - and yes people do notice my new fresh hairline"

"I had a great experience with DHI Clinic! The procedure was straightforward, and the recovery time was much shorter than I expected. The team was professional, explaining every step clearly and ensuring I felt comfortable throughout the process. Best of all, the results look natural and completely met my expectations. Highly recommend this clinic."

"What can I say ... I bought myself ten years back (that's what the OTHERS say). I did a hair transplant already 8 years ago in my early 40s in Germany (tonsure area only) and was maybe 70% happy with the result. Now, with 50, receding hairline kept advancing so I decided to give it another try and found DHI Panama. I liked how I was not rushed into the transplant - Dr. Juan Vlieg decided to rather strengthen and thicken my hairs with a Minoxidil therapy over 6 months (makes no sense to remove thin hair ...) before we met again for the transplant. Also after the transplant we supported the result with proper medication and haircare products. The aftercare is an aspect I really appreciate - You will see the Doctor avery several times after the transplant to overview the recovery process and to adjust medication. Overall - I am superhappy the result, and the way I was treated. This is a 1-to-1 doctor-patient experience, rather than a mass processing routine that are offered in clinics in Turkey etc. The result is breathtaking. You will get looks and people will ask you "Jeez what have you done". If you think you could do something with your hair, here you go, it is 100% worth the investment!"
