Sorry to hear, man, that sounds friggin wretched; even more unfortunate that it isn't *that* surprising..thankfully, you still prolly have a good deal of donor left over, and your hairloss doesn't look too bad to begin with...SO, if you select an elite HT clinic your future still looks bright in my opinion.

But, I guess this shows that even "the best of MHR" is truly damning with faint praise....

alps,

sorry to hear about your bad mhr experience. If your six month pics are indicative of your final result then 1000 fu into such a small area should have yielded a far better cosmetic improvement.
...and your doctor was similtanously working on 4 different patients.
Unbelieveable.

on the plus side your donor supply has hardly been touched and the little work that was done seems ok so really all u can do is chalk it down to experience and the next time i'm sure you'll choose a doctor who has his patients best interests at heart.

best of luck to u.

Alps,

I appreciate you coming back to give us an update on your experience. I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed.

Do you have updated pictures you can share with us? I would suggest that if your results don't look any better than they did at 6 months, then you didn't receive a high growth yield with this hair transplant.

As thanatopsis already pointed out, the good news is you should have plenty of donor hair available for subsequent hair transplants. I encourage you to spend time here and do research on this site and select a physician with a proven track record of excellent results.

On a side note, it is quite alarming that your physician was working on 4 other patients simultaneously.

Best wishes,

Bill

Jeeeez......

Just goes to show what a pack of wankers MHR can be.........

pLEASE BE CAREFUL as to what Dr you choose next time. As far as I know only the Farjo clinic in Manchester is recommended. because of the cheap dollar it may be better for you to fly to NY and see Dr. Feller.......Dont just go to any clinic. Most of them have an awful reputation in UK....

Hard to believe these doctors are allowed to get away with this, even today.

Are there coaltion doctors who work on multiple patients at the same time? I sure hope not. I remember all too well the 90's, when I would be one of about 5 or 6 patients being worked on that day, many of us at the same time, it was all about how much $$$ that butcher could make, not what kind of results that could be delivered.

Ethics and skill should be evaluated equally, as they are just as important.
