I have had a very unsatisfactory experience with a transplant some years ago which has left me with pain where the grafts were taken from. I would worn people strongly to research before committing themselves. I am in Manchester UK. Are there any good surgeons here and have the techniques changed over the years?

I had a transplant 30 years ago using the punchgraft technique.I had 2 sessions. The first session left me with a terrible open wound on the right hand side of my head. I was told that it would return to normal in due course. Since then I have had constant headaches which also radiates down the my neck which is very unpleasant. The area is still sensitive to touch. At the time I was told that the company "Transform" had the backing of the BMA as I live in the UK.This was a lie as I found out later. Had I known about the lie and the complication caused I would never have had this procedure done. I would not recommend this to anyone as it has not been successful anyway.I now wear a piece to cover the baldness which I should have gone for before. We all learn by our mistakes but I feel I was mislead at the time.
