  1. Hi Wozza33 , I was told to wait 6 months , then 12 but I explained grafts would not magically grow where they were not placed and I seriously doubted the work carried out . I am into my 12 month stage and I hope you don't go through what I am going through . The grafts he placed at the temples are so thin that it looks like receding hair and no different to before I went for surgery . The frontal hair line is exactly the same as before I went in as we did no work there at all . The rest of my scalp is also seriuosly thinned . I invited him to come onto SKYPE to see and he refused and asked me to speak to his solicitor with any of my concerns . The clinic say they will only let me have a second procedure with the Dr. Kienecker and no refund , something I cannot risk again . I am basically stuck with worse looking hair than before surgery and a lot of money down . After speaking with our recommended surgeons for second opinions they believe he should never have placed grafts across diffuse thinning areas as he has caused more hair loss . That's where I stand at this stage my friend , if I were you I would not expect too much from his surgery .
  2. Any ideas what the best route is to go down to request a refund ?
  3. thanks ej . If I can get some sort of refund I will definetely be going to Dr Farjo .
  4. As you can see my hair is in a bad way , the front hair line is extrememly thin and looks like no work has been carried out at all . The rest as you can see is also pretty bad . I have serious doubts that 2000 grafts were placed and my hair looks a whole lot worse than before surgery .
  5. Hi everyone , I underwent surgery with Dr Ulf Kienecker on Dec 2nd 2011 for 2000 FUT grafts . The consultation was in Manchester where I was told I needed grafts to the back and centre . I then went for surgery a few months later when I was told by Dr Kienecker this was not as necessary as the front hair line . I then advised the Dr to give me a strong hair line or improve it which should have been easily achievable with 2000 grafts and my current hair-line . After surgery when returning to my hotel I was shocked that the work I could see on my scalp look nowhere near 2000 grafts . I am now 8 months post op and my hair line is ridiculously thin and it is like hardly anything has been done with density across my hair line the same as before . I have queried this over and over again with the Dr. Kienecker but I keep getting told to wait 12 months . I keep saying hair is not going to grow where no grafts were placed . I was extrememly concerned at the lack of work carried out and my hair shows no signs of improvement . Please feel free to reply and advise if this looks like I have been short changed on 2000 grafts . Your responses would be really appreciated . First pic is pre op , second one is after op on day of surgery

  8. Hi there , i would really appreciate some feebdback on my before and straight after surgery photographs after 2000 FUT grafts from Dr Ulf Kienecker in London . My hair looks a little thicker than it actually is before surgery due to thickening shampoo . As you can see when wet during /after surgery it is quite thinned out . I have seen a number of people achieve good results from 2000 grafts across the hair line and from being totally bald . I at least had something there and would like opinions on whether you think this looks like 2000 grafts were placed along my temples and hairline . I ask because my hair line is as thin at 6 months , if not worse than when he did the procedure and I feel he has not place enough grafts to achieve any density at all across the fron centre and this was an area he was supposed to be dealing with . Does it look like 2000 grafts have been placed in my procedure because my first impressions when I left and looked at myself was , why has he not placed more grafts along the centre and I doubted 2000 grafts had been placed . At the 6 months point my front centre hair line is exactly the same as before surgery and too thin to do anything with . Your thougths would be greatly appreciated .
