  1. I find it hard to believe that I have to travel aboard to get decent FUE treatment. I'm not saying you're wrong though, it just seems weird. I'll do my searches on the clinics I've mentioned plus other and may visit one their surgeons and meet some of their patients for myself whilst I'm there. I'd rather see for myself than go off hear say without seeing any actual evidence they're bad, I can't make a judgement till then. Thanks for the help.
  2. Thankfully, I haven't committed to anything yet. I'll do a search and see what I find. I'm not going to assume a lack of good reviews necessarily means they're not good but I will certainly take any bad reviews into account. Thanks for your help.
  3. Thanks for the advice and quick response!. I wouldn't be able to travel aboard and cost isn't the biggest issue. Do you have any links referring to bad reviews or evidence of why I should use these companies or any other companies other than this one guy? I'm totally new to this subject, I did some research but didn't go deep enough to uncover bad info on them and that seems like quite a claim.
  4. Hello, Quick brief of my hair-loss. I've been loosing my hair on my crown for about 10 years, I started using Minoxidil about 7 years ago. I'm now 34 and I would like to get a FUE transplant after spending a good amount of time considering whether to have treatment and which type to go for. I've been to see to 2 hair transplant clinics, UK Hair Transplant Clinics and The Private Clinic of Harley Street. I've attached the photo's taken of my crown by UK Hair Transplant Clinics. They both recommended Finasteride and gave similar prices but after that I've be given slightly different information and would like some advice please. UK Hair Transplant Clinics quoted me ?7200 for 2500 grafts which would give approximately 5000 hairs via FUE. The Private Clinic of Harley Street quoted me ?5400 (?1.80 per hair) for 3000 hairs via FUE 3G (3rd gen), they claim to pioneer this technique, they said each hair was individually extracted and implanted. I spoke to UK Hair Transplant Clinics who have been calling me up since my visit to book.I told them I would be visiting this other clinic before I decided. They claim there is no such thing as FUE '3G' and that because 'The Private Clinic' didn't measure my area, the estimate of 3000 hairs was low. I'm not concerned about the difference in price as my main concern is best surgery and chance of success. Any advice is really appreciated. Thanks for reading.
