Any updates. I hope people got their money back.

My friend got ripped off by these guys for ?6k and never saw a penny of it again.. Turned up on the day of the Surgery and everything was locked and no one around surprise surprise..

Hi Phil,

In response to your email, I'm afraid that my friend still hasnt recovered the ?6k that he'd paid over to London Hairtransplant Clinic, I think he had tried the legal route and now he's opting for the other route of hunting the fella down.

I dont condone this for one minute, but I'm afraid they've tried to have over the wrong type of person, if you get my drift.

This may not get his money back, but I'm sure he'll get plenty of satisfaction!!

I'll let you know what occurs..

Cheers,

I've just spoken to my friend whom they had over and he'd be very interested in speaking to you as he'd like to catch up with this Zak, and also taling to your Solicitor recommendation..

How can he contact you?

Thanks,

a friend of mine unbeknown to me had also booked in to have surgery with them and had paid over ?6k to have surgery, when he turned up on the day, was told that no one was there from LHTC and cannot get hold of them to tell him what is happening, so looks like he's lost his money, so I'm sure there's a fair few that would like to sue the Company!!

Hi there,

In response to various posts that have been submitted regarding the London Hairtransplant Clinic & Dr. Kienecker, I would certainly advise anyone looking to have surgery to look elsewhere.

I had a FUT proceedure carried out in March 2012, admittedly i never carried out enough research on the Surgeon or Comapny and i rue that decision to this day. Alarm bells should've started to sound when i turned up to the practice in Fulham and it's basically inside a Dentist's practice!..

The Staff there were great and welcoming, but as soon as I had the proceedure i noticed that my hairline hadn't basically been touched having informed them that i was more concerned with the fron area. Eight months down the line and the hair growth was still non existent, i phoned/emailed

both Dr. Kienecker's surgery & LHTC and was told that it would grow and that this timescale isn't unheard of and to come back after 12 Months.

I met Dr. Kienecker last week for my 12 Month post-operative check up (incidentally in a new Dental practice in Kings Cross), my hairline/density has not changed and actually is thinner than before the surgery. I informed Dr. Kienecker that i was unhappy with the results and he proceeded to tell me that the implanted hairs had taken extremely well and was fine???..

I would've had more respect for the fella if he'd held his hands up and said that the proceedure hadn't gone as well as could've been expected etc, etc, but no he give me some waffle that the hairs had in fact grown and my old hair had fallen out..

He then proceeded to tell me that LHTC had now been declared bankrupt and were operating under a slightly different name (London Hairtransplant Global) and that they still owed him over ?50,000 in fees etc.

I know i havent posted any pic's to back up this post, but am too embarassed by the fact that i did not do my homework & research, if i can offer any advice to anyone thnking of using this Company or Surgeon for that matter, Pleas STEER CLEAR!!!

I'm more than happy to answer any questions, if need be..

Thanks,

Wozza

Hi Chippy10,

Any progress since your last post?

I'm actually new to this site/network etc and I too had surgery with Dr. Ulf Kienecker via London Hairtransplant Clinic eight months ago, and if i'm totally honest am pretty upset to the fact that i've had no hair grwoth whatsoever..

I too have emailed and called both the Clinic and Dr. Kienecker's office and was told the same thing, that I'd need to wait till 12 Months has elapsed, which is all well and good but it's slightly embarassing when you see friends you havent met for a while and they're asking as to when your HT will take place!!..

If you've had any progress i would appreciate to hear it..

Thanks,

Hi Micheal,

Thank you very much for the reply, I will try and post some photos to give some indication as to what stage my hair growth is at after 8 months..

Hopefully I will hear something positive from my Surgeon or the Clinic I purchased the HT through??.. Surely, they must have some code of practice where by they should have some after care..

Will keep you updated

I actually went through the London Hairtransplant clinic, who are based in Harley St..

I've contacted them about a Month to go to see if they or the Surgeon could give me any advice assurances etc, but they keep telling me he's away on holiday and will contact me on his return??

The Surgeon was Dr. Ulf Kienecker

Dear All,

I had the FUT surgery (2200 grafts) carried out in March and if i'm totally honest have had no growth whatsoever from what i can see.. For the first 4-5-6 Months it never bothered me as I was assured that this would be normal and then I would see sorm form of growth.. My question is, has anyone else gone this length of time without any visible hair growth? And am i just being inpatient????

Sorry i havent posted any photos, but I just feel a bit deflated and too embarassed to post any.. ( and i know that doesnt help!!)...

I'd be delighted to hear if anyone has gone so long prior to their transplant finally coming to fruition.. Would put my mind at rest..

Thanks,
