What's the best way to deal with a needle phobia but when wanting a FUE Hair Transplant? Can the doctors accommodate it?

Asked By:antongough in Southampton, GB

I am looking to get a hair transplant. Im 22 years old and have a pretty bad needle phobia in the sense I pass out. Is there any doctors that accommodate this through oral sedation or other methods? I would love recommendations as I'm on a rather tight budget but eager to undergo the procedure! (UK or abroad) Thanks!
