Thanks for all your support nhi did me good and proper and weren't interested in putting the work right or giving me a refund(surprise surprise)hopefully anyone seeing the problems I had with nhi will think twice about having a procedure with them cheers cfcbloke1212.

Here are recent photos of my procedure from nhi in athens in august 2006.As you can see its the biggest load of rubbish ever(supposedly a mega session of 4659 hairs)which cost me ??5250.I have a scar running from ear to ear which will never disappear and the top speaks for itself(you can't even put a comb through it as its so sparse and weak)personally I would avoid malcolm mendelsohn and nhi like the plague the choi method wasn't any good for me I'd rather use a skilled surgeons hand than something thats not endorsed and used worldwide like I say use nhi at your own peril.

Ej the lawyers in greece tend to do things more on a contingency basis and the one whose looking into things for me is doing it on a no win no fee basis(I can't afford the fees and I can't afford to lose so I have to be 100% sure I have a very strong case which I am)It took me a long time to find someone but because the procedure took place in greece I have to use someone who specialises in greek law and is based there as well.As for being up for the fight definately I'm a libran and hate seeing people ripped off especially by people who don't care about they're clients(its like we've got their money onto the next mug)and of course they hate people complaining because in their eyes they're never wrong well I will either be taking action against mendelsohn or nhi(either or)this procedure was a one off thing for me and took me a long time to get the money together(of course they don't care about that)and I wouldn't be able to afford another procedure anytime soon thats why I want my money back(all of it plus damages for incompetent work and stress and trauma suffered)but untill then I won't be able to look at having anymore work done but to be honest I wouldn't know who to go to theres so many sharks in this game(I also read a bit of stuff on alvi armani which was interesting)again they all feed you the same crap and spin because they want your money(we must have mugs printed on our foreheads)and untill someone takes a stand against these amateurs it will keep happening(I actually think a load of people from this site who have been ripped off by nhi should get together a load of photos literature etc etc and turn up at one of their consults at the marriot hotel in london)because without a lot of their british clients they're nothing and word spreads really quickly it would definately damage malcolms business because like I said he and his network of pals must be making a fortune.You know I've been desperate to have my hair done for years(to them its a business to us its everything and these hair clinics should remember that)who knows what happens next my greek lawyer is working on things which could take a long time I've read a lot of good stuff on this site and looked at some of the coalition surgeons in america so we'll just have to see what happens my hairs cropped at the moment(I tend to wear it in a grade one a lot)problem is the scar is so noticeable but I might post a picture of the scar over the next few days(the two and a half year scar from ear to ear)its never gone away its narrowed a bit but you can see it just as much as when I had the procedure done.I spoke to a surgeon in london recently and he laughed when I told him what nhi said about the scar his reply was my dad had strip surgery 25 years ago and the scar ain't going to go away that sums up strip surgery really and nhi's spiel all they want is your money we all know that hopefully I'll get my hair sorted in the future but its a very expensive business when you pay hard earned money for rubbish(my mates a top plastic surgeon in london and he said he might be able to find someone for me where I pay on a monthly basis)it depends where it is and who it is but ej if I had the money I'd do it again I wouldn't let what happened with nhi put me off I'd just be more aware of the rip off merchants in the game(of which there are many)anyway all the best mate cfcbloke 1212.

Ej thanks for your kind words and info I think your right there would be a queue of people waiting to do malcolm mendelsohn in.I actually had a massive arguement with him via email and told him if I was ever in greece again(which I won't be)I would like to meet him face to face I may even turn up at one of their consultations at the marriot in london and tell people what a load of rubbish nhi are(all you need to do is look at my hair I've been told I didn't have the donor hair available in the first place for a mega session)three seperate clinics have told me that.Its plain obvious nhi aren't interested in their clients they're just interested in money full stop and when people save long and hard for a long time only to get joke results its very annoying(and they're not interested in you at all when you complain about the procedure)they take ages to get back to you they fob you off with rubbish(jeff even got annoyed with me and tried to blame me)so I sent him some pictures of the surgeons handy work and he said photos lie and are deceptive its just a joke.I believe there are probably thousands of dissatisfied clients of nhi athens any professional company worth they're salt would offer to put the work right or give you a full or partial refund because they don't want bad publicity(I tried both and got nowhere with nhi)I also now realise I paid malcome mendelsohn ??5250 personally rather than nhi(I paid the full amount on my card before I flew out there in august 2006)so my greek lawyer is looking at that because I might have to take action against him rather than nhi themselves(I thought he just worked for the company)but when I asked jeff who was at the top of the company because I wanted to talk to them he told me malcolm was the owner(also can anyone tell me if there is any connection between nhi and dhi athens or dhi in london or are they seperate companies)I would also say a huge majority of their clients are english(as they come over quite a few times a year for consults)so all in all malcolm and his chums must be making an absolute fortune out of us english guys because the ??5000 I paid was just for the top jeff even had the gall to say to me come and see us in london in january 2009 and we'll see what we can do(he kept saying he was on my side which was laughable)I said are you going to put the top right and his answer was well from our records you were due to come back a year later to have the top infilled and the back done(I said jeff that was nhi's take on the situation not mine)who in their right mind is going to go back to a company like nhi who has performed the most disgraceful hair transplant you have ever seen(believe me its bad)from my point of view I would have wanted them to put the top right(for free of course)untill I even considered saving my hard earned money to have the back done(they want 12k off you they think money grows on trees)its like buying a pair of jeans in a shop finding they've got a hole in them when you get home taking them back and being refused a refund I don't think you'd be going back again.To be honest I made a mistake it was my first procedure and I thought I'd done my homework but nhi aren't genuine they hide behind the fact that youre due to go back a year later to have the back done and infill the top thats where they catch you but you don't want the top infilled a year later you want it done properly the first time thats where they're very unscrupulous.I did a lot of research before I flew to athens I knew no clinic in england could give me what I wanted(if I had the money I would have flown to dubai with alvi armani because their work is very impressive or what I've seen of it is)I just thought nhi offered a mega session for the money I had so decided to go with them and all I can say is its left me really annoyed their customer service is not existant sure their going to have a few happy clients but the majority are going to be unhappy jeff told me doctor fotis tsunis is a really proud man and no one has ever complained about his work well I'll let you make your own mind up on that one because I was less than pleased with what he did to me thanks again ej all the best cfcbloke 1212.

Hi I've never posted on this site before but after reading some of the comments about nhi I've decided to tell you what I think.I'm a guy in my thirties into sport going out looking good appearance is everything so after a lot of research I decided to have a procedure with nhi in athens in august 2006 using the choi method.I spoke with malcolm mendelsohn and he convinced me that the choi method was the bee all and end all would give me fantastic results and the scar from the strip would gradually subside over time well all I can say is I had a mega session with nhi it cost me over ??5000 and it is the biggest load of rubbish I have ever seen(the chap who said they are a cowboy outfit has it spot on)a transplant should be all about artistry and skill of placement mine is the biggest mess you will ever see its not worth ??5 let alone ??5000.I've seen a few clinics in london(I wouldn't have a procedure in england because I don't think any of the clinics are upto the job)but I just wanted to confirm how many hairs I have on my head and after a digi scope test the answer came back about 1500 hairs and believe me that is at a push.I would say more like 500 its a joke a load of rubbish and to the guy who thinks he's scar is disappearing after three months well I've got a scar from ear to ear which I was told would disappear within three to four months and two and a half years later its still there so to anyone who is thinking of having strip surgery using the choi method I would say don't go there I mean I'm no expert but I would say unless you're prepared for people to constantly ask you where the scar came from and to have it for the rest of your life I really wouldn't go there seriously use nhi at your peril they only care about money not helping clients they're not interested in putting work right or giving you some or all of your money back.I have been talking to a lawyer and am seriously thinking about taking action against them for this excuse of a hair transplant the stress and trauma has been massive but oddball malcolm mendelsohn doesn't care I once asked what he does if clients complain and he said I don't care I live on the side of a mountain with my dogs that sums the guy up he's a very strange bloke the american guy jeffs allright but all in all I would say steer well clear of nhi athens they don't even have a clinic in england so how big are they really oh and when I complained about the crap job nhi had done jeff said no one had ever complained about the surgeons work before which everyone knows is rubbish because 50% to 60% of transplants need to be redone plus I've now seen the fallout on this site believe me don't use nhi athens because you will be disappoined and out of pocket don't say I have warned you.
