Call your bank or credit card and tell them to refund you . Say you decided not to go through surgery for health concerns due to the pandemic. And since the clinic did not provide you any services you will get your money back . I guarantee u!! Just be smart about it . I got my deposit back years ago, for $1000 when I canceled my ht. I just called my bank told them services wasn’t provided, n I did not want to go through with surgery due to health concerns .. my bank refunded my money on the spot. Then they did whatever they did on their end . N that’s that . So don’t ever let these clinics scare you with that non refundable deposit crap . U don’t need to speak to the clinic .. call ur bank !!

As I am someone that graduated from Oaksterdam ( cannabis school ) I can definitely say cannabis does not cause or contribute to hair loss.. smoking cigarettes, does cause restriction of blood flow, which can’t be great for our body or hair . But u can smoke ur weed, snort it, stuff it up ur butt and it still won’t cause u hairloss .. I hope that helps ..

I think combing ur hair a little differently is the solution .. than a $10,000 ht..

I think a partial hair system would be the ideal solution in this case.

Sorry for typos but fuk it ,, too lazy to edit .. kinda buzzed . U get the idea tho ,. Ht works .. I work recommend it for someone in the low to mid Norwood’s however, every time I see someone that’s really bald with not great donor .. I just hope people here don’t sell them the hype .. it works, but it’s not miracle . Expect half of what you were hoping for n u be good . It’s a process , not a miracle .

Well just an update ,. I know I complaining about how I didn’t get all 2500 grafts ,, maybe 1700-2000 grafts ,, overall , is still satisfied.. it’s not as full as I hoped ,, but it’s nice to not have to cover my hair to not like like it was receding . It’s natural looking ,, just spent time at the family’s thanksgiving dinner , felt comfortable , no one ever knew I had a ht ..

1 hair transplant a day . Is $20,000 not enough for a clinic in one day ? How much can overhead cost be to justify not giving the patient their full undivided attention . It’s surgery , that’s costing us $20,000 average. That’s Ike the doctor is getting paid $1,500 dollars an hour .. I would want my doctor glued to the seat right next to me for the whole time, with no bathroom breaks for him . No other doctor gets paid this much ..

Guys, my honest opinion with dealing with both doctor diep and doctor hasson .. I feel like I should of went to doctor diep . He would of gave me more density. H&w is a top notch clinic , n they are more meticulous n detailed oriented .. but all this negativity towards doctor diep is what scared me n cAnceld on Doctor diep + the customer service from the office manager made me nervous about spending $16,000.. I ended up spending $20,000 at hnw, for more grafts n less results .. so honestly, I think they are both great clinics .. don’t overthink it .

I used to listen to the show a lot when I was at the peak of my hairloss . . It was really comforting to me, to hear others deal with the same situation. N I learned of them , almost As much as I learned from here .. n no they are not sponsored by proscar/finasteride . They just giving u the obvious fact , the only fda approved drug to slow hairloss is finasteride .. - I think their main profit comes from letting others know there are a lot of bad clinics out there , n surgery is no joke , so choose only there approved affiliated doctors that are paying them $thousands of dollars, then u are safe . Kinda the same thing this forum does .. But they are providing a service , n information .. so I trust them n I trust this forum as my go to knowledge for hairloss n transplants .

Like I said .. that’s their policy for the 30 day thing to cancel for the clinic . I think the bank is around 3-6 months to dispute the charges .. again this is just policy from companies .. - I canceled my appointment on the 11th month . So I was way pass the deadline to dispute chArges with the clinic or the bank . but I still got my refund .. it’s very hard for the clinic to withhold your deposit when services were not provided .. if they actually sold u something, then yeah it be more difficult to get your money back .. - n since the clinic did not provide you services it’s difficult for them to argue with the bank when u open a grievance against them .

Dr diep office is super busy , so if he doesn’t do 2 patients a day , then do u want to wait 18 months instead of the current 9 months to get a ht from him. - me personally ,. That was the main reason I didn’t go to him .. $20,000 I prefer to be the only patient .

They are both good doctors .. don’t overthink it . But do with whatever makes you feel comfortAble.. I had experience with both so I will comment on that lAter. - but if u need to get your deposit back .. it’s easy if u charged it to your debit or credit card . Just call them up n dispute the charge , I told my bank, that I need my $1000 deposit back since services were not provided .. Your deposit is made to hold your spot for services to be rendered . If you don’t go through with the surgery then services were not provided . Therefore, you get your money back . 1. it is the clinic’s policy to keep your deposit but it is not law . N since you don’t work at their clinic then u don’t have to abide by their policy . 2. Since the clinic did not render the service what right do they have to keep your deposit. It’s just an inconvenience to them to rebook another patient .. which they will probably do so . So they aren’t losing any buisiness . 3. When I called dr diep office to get my deposit back .. they said No ! n I was like we see about that , n didn’t need to speak to them any further, n handed up the phone then I called my bank n told them exactly what I just mentioned . They did not provide me any services n I need my $1,000 deposit back . Then the bank did whatever they do . N 2 days later my money was back in my bank account . know your rights !!

Sorry I’m not a good example .. but I had to treat it as a two day vacation in Canada . Couldn’t be stuck in the hotel room sober . 😁 I didn’t bleed much . N yep , I dranked before n after surgery , not much just a few beers . Enough to pass the time .

$475 covered my 2 hour plane trip n 2 night stay at a hotel n a 12 pack of beer for my journey .. Ur transplant isn’t too bad, I just wouldn’t do it again at the same place on the second procedure .

I think u had too many native hair in the front, those hairs are struggling for blood supply with the new hairs, so your growth could be slower .. - I feel ya tho , with that many grafts up front you would expect your hair to be bushy n full .. but I’m realizing that more grafts is not always better .. the grafts need enough space n blood to grow not competing with other hairs .. - so u could be a late bloomer , the hairs will Grow n mature so it will look better but definitely not optimal .. just got to be patient ..

I hate to be blunt ,, but this clinic is a joke .. u know they dirty when they either pay or gave some sorta of incentive to get someone to butt into someone else’s thread to sing a love poem about about their clinic.. - what normal reviewer/ man would start their review with “they are not only handsome n with a decent heart.N he says he love them , n stuff like that .. that’s just funny .. come on . would anyone trust people like that to deliver ur mail , or pay them to do surgery on ur head ? Well anyways , good luck op getting a refund or Anything from them , it’s not going to be very likely, even though they messed up ur donor real bad . looks like amateur work . Sorry 😐 p.s. even tho I complained about my own ht , but seeing work like this ,, I’ can’t complain anymore n feel more appreciative about my results .. best wishes op,

Stay back Bismarck , ur wisdom is appreciated .. but yeah I know what u mean .. that dude annoys me too , turned me off from the forum also .. even the profile pic , looks like the dude is a dik. Ugly bald dude finally got some hair and act like he’s a know it all .

Hey y’all , n thanks jean , yep I knew u would be the honest technical person .. sure it looks good .. but did 2500 grafts grew ? Heck no, 2000 max grew.. if I didn’t pay top dollar to a top 10 clinic I would be recommending them to everyone . If I went overseas and got these results for half the price I would be super happy .. but nope the standards were high from me n the office , considering my low norwood , n nice caliber hair . N they even promise me a gurantee of 90 percent growth . So for them to dismiss me n just say nah 2500 grafts grew , it just doesn’t seem that way becAuse u dyed ur hair brown . Nah I didn’t even dye my transplant hair, n I look in the mirror everyday , so just tell me I’m wrong . That’s not customer service .. so I Haven’t even replied back to them . - n no I wouldn’t go to diep either .. his skill level Is there. , artistry n surgery , but he’s too much in a rush , fut in the morning , then he goes to the next pAtient right after for the Fue extractions , that’s why his extractions seemed rush because he has to get back to the first Fut patient to finish up .. so but honestly he needs to hire a specialist tech that does extractions only , like HNW does .. then he can be more focused on what he does well .. N he should get a better office manager that’s more customer oriented .. well that’s my beef .. overall I’m pretty glad I went through with the ht, it actually works .. n so does finasteride . When. I just turned 38 , that’s when my hair started to recede an fall out n thin.. every time I shake my head a few hairs would fall out .. at that rate I felt like I be bald in 2 years .. it’s natural for ur hair to fall , but if they don’t grow back faster than they fall that’s called balding ! fin, has kept things stable n the same . No gains or losses it seems but when I shake my head not many hairs fall .. so there’s hope guys .. I was super stressed two years ago .. now I feel comfortable.. I should be okay for a few more years , still got a couple more life cycles left in those thinning native . hairs ..

Man trix , that looks really good .. they covered ur whole head with that amount of grafts is impressive .. congrats man I think u be good for along while.

I wouldn’t trust someone in finance to tell me anything about medical health issues or a bald person telling me how to regrow hair, or a fat person telling me how to diet .. these are people that have last lost those battles.. There’s no point trying to change people minds about things .. people are how they are .

Hey guys I go back n respond to some of ur guys comments later .. but for now , I reply to Tyrone ..there is no way u went to top tier clinic on ur first HT , when u say they used Neograft on u , that’s a red flag 🚩 right there .. that’s a machine / tool that noobie doctors uses when they still learning how to do hair transplants .

Sup guys .. things are looking better ,, it’s not great n full as l like ,. But if I make an effort n hair styling products and hair spray it down .. i can achieve that same nice look everyone posts on here .. - overall I’m happy enough , I don’t think I’m going back for Another HT until I bald more .. it’s not worth the time n cost at my age, unless I get a bald spot somewhere .. It’s good enough to where I don’t have to comb my hair to hide a receding hairline , I can just leave it natural n feel comfortable in my own skin .. - this is me after a shower with nothing in hair but water .. water makes the hair fuller for some reason , so I know I can comb my hAir this way with some mousse n hairspray it down if I want ..

Don’t mess around with minoxidil unless u are going to be committed to it .. none of that off n on kinda thing .. u end up worse than u started. Try the foam version , it’s not as harsh on ur scalp because the liquid version has a little bit of alchohol in it for better absorption, so more effective but more side effects ., maybe u could tolerate the liquid later on after ur scalp is used to rogaine on ur head .. .. so do the foam version first ..

I have worse pictures .. those are just pictures of how my hair is everyday .. I can make my hair look better , but just giving u guys the good n bad . Overall it’s good enough ., but if I’m still able to work at home after the pandemic is over , I probably would go for another 500 grafts to fill things in.. I already spent $20,000 might as well spend another $3-4K .. I’m way over budget in what I wanted to spend on hair .. I was hoping that h n w would stand by their word n come through n do fill in the spots .. but dr Hasson said 2500 grafts grew .. I haven’t even bothered to reply .. .. I should of went to diep, he was going to do 2000 grafts max , n I’m sure he would of achieved the same results ..
