  1. Hi and thank you for responding. I honestly can't remember the name of the Dr - it was done by the UK hair transplant clinic in Nottingham. The reason I went with them was that the give you a guarantee that if the yield is less than 80% they will redo their work for free. To their credit after the first transplant they did put in another 1000 for free - though I strongly doubt 2000 took first time round. The 2200 that was done the 2nd time have made a slight improvement - but not much. They have also appeared on BBC 1 before and with the guarantee I felt they were a safe bet. I see so many bald patches and random singular hairs with no friends in sight and it had me convinced that a lot of the grafts failed to take. My hair is growing up the way so the hair is becoming slightly unmanageable. I am having to cover it in Nanogen to even leave the house - I wouldn't mind this if it wasn't for the fact that even with it on I still have poor coverage. Work is becoming a nightmare and my self a steam is shot. So glad a joined this today - feels nice to finally vent my frustrations lol
  2. Being going bald since my early 20's. In April 2012 I had my first HT procedure. Had 3050 grafts placed in the hairline and middle part of my head, with a small amount placed in my crown. The result was poor with the left side showing better results than the right. The company I went with agreed to put in an additional 1000 grafts for free after examining the final result. I payed for an additional 1200 grafts to be put in during the same procedure. I am 3 weeks away from reaching the 12 month stage and I am devastated with the outcome. The hair is weak, patchy and grows straight up. IMO - it does not resemble a natural head of hair I have attached pictures taken 11.5 months after the 2nd transplant. Perhaps I have been expecting too much and the results are what you would expect from 4200 grafts so I would greatly appreciate feedback on the result and whether it has been as unsuccessful as I believe. Pictures are on my page and thank you in advance for your help .
