1.4mm! thats massive! This is very unsatisfactory, you need to take this further, 3800.00 isnt easy to come by.

Woody,

I'm sorry to hear and see that your results didn't turn out as expected. Have you contacted the clinic about your dissatisfaction? What have they said about it?

Though we do welcome patients to share their genuine experiences whether good or bad, be sure to read our policies on "How we Maintain a Safe and Fair Environment on our Forum for Patients and Physicians. In the event your doctor wants to post a reply, you will be required to give them your full name, date of surgery and give them the necessary written permission to discuss your case publicly.

In my opinion, contact the clinic and share your results and dissatisfaction with them so they can work with you on an amicable resolution.

Best wishes,

Bill

Very sorry to see this result of yours.

I am glad that you are sharing your experience as Transmed are one of my choices. When i asked them for FUE patients pictures, they were only able to show me one. Luckily i have not decided anything yet.

Getting a poor result is not nice but can happen. Getting a 'No Response' when the patient tries to contact for any reason is unacceptable.

Can you please continue to let us know how they deal (or if they deal with it at all) with your poor result.

Woody,

I've been in touch with Transmed and it sounds like they're doing all they can to accommodate you including offering you a free consultation and evaluation of the result to see if there's anything they can do to improve it, a free plane ticket, and a complimentary hotel room during your stay. I'm pleased to hear that you've taken them up on their offer.

Unfortunately, there are risks and variables that go along with hair transplant surgery, some of which are outside of a physician's control. And though even the best physicians won't bat a thousand, strong consistency in results and how they handle patient concerns is what makes a clinic elite.

Because Transmed is working to resolve your concerns amicably, which is what any reputable clinic would do in the event of less than optimal results, to make this threat more fair and unbiased, I've removed the word "bad" from the title. No content in the thread itself has been edited.

I trust Transmed will do all they can to help you resolve your concerns and achieve your hair restoration goals.

Please keep us posted.

All the Best,

Bill

I dont understand why he would go back to the same clinic after those results. Also I would ask for your money back. IMO its time to try someone else.
