Thanks guys for your advice! I'm definitely going to check out your recommendations and do a bit more research!

Hi, I was hoping to get some help. I have just started looking into FUE treatment for my receding hair (and balding on top) - I think I'm about a level 4?!? I thought it best to go for a hair consultation in my area (near Manchester, UK) to gain some information/ask questions about the procedure and get an idea of what is involved and cost. My wife and I went to see the Harley Street Healthcare Hair Transplant Clinic in Manchester (think they also go by the name of UK hair transplant clinic). The guy we saw was training to be a doctor/hair surgeon but was not the person who would be performing the surgery. After he had examined me and we'd talked about my expectations he drew on my head to show me what I could expect in terms of hairline. He said my donor site was very good as the hair there is thick and dense but that mine was "a big case". He said I would need a Giga FUE graft which is 3000 grafts or 6000 hairs to gain the density and coverage I would need. Usually this costs ?4799 but he could offer it to me for ?3599 if we could confirm this month. This was the only bit which worried me as otherwise we found the whole experience really professional and not at all 'sales-like'. The clinic where the procedure would be performed is in Essex and I would have a choice of surgeons from Dr Matee - MBBS, RCGP, BSC, Dr Shuja - MBBS, MRCGP, BSc (Hons) or Dr Maziar - MD, MRCS, FRCA, DOHNS. Has anyone heard of this clinic or the surgeons or have any experience of being treated there? They have 9.4/10 in their reviews on trusted reviews and seem well liked on 'what clinic' but I'm not sure if I should trust these sites. Also, I was considering getting another consultation at MHR clinic where Ryan Giggs was treated. Has anyone heard/had experience of this one. Finally, if anyone has recommendations of other good clinics I should get in touch with I'd be really grateful! I am happy to travel for treatment pretty much anywhere in the UK. Thanks in advance!
