Regular Member jaypee2502 Posted October 30, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted October 30, 2015 i went to my GP to get a recommendation for the best/most trusted place to get an FUE hair transplant for my frontal hairline. sent me off and said he would call me the next day. when he called he said the only option really is 2 clinics and surgeons both on harley street, and both probably the most expensive in the UK i dont doubt :eek::mad: i know my friend booked himself in the private clinic there, and it would cost him ?10.000 and from what i could tell very little work had to be done (he cancelled in the end as he later had financial troubles) im getting desperate now but literally have no idea where to turn, there are so many places offering the FUE but alot of them do seem extremely dodgy.

Senior Member harin Posted October 31, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 If cost is of major concern then consider options outside UK. David himself had excellent results from Dr. Bhatti in India. There are also other doctors who have consistently have had good results so you can consider them as well. Good luck.

Senior Member darlinglocks Posted October 31, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 Hi Jaypee2502, Harin is right. Many patients here had excellent FUE results with Dr. Tejinder Bhatti, Check out DR. Bhatti 's website, pictures, videos and cost. Compare with a few surgeons and make some online consultations.

Regular Member TR3B Posted October 31, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 As above, loads of great doctors outside the UK where you won't be getting ripped off. You get what you pay for doesn't real hold much water with hair transplants as there have been thousands of great results for a fraction of the price of UK and US prices. Footballers and other famous people are well known for having the procedures in the UK which has really kept the prices at unrealistic levels for the general public.

Senior Member Shera Posted October 31, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 Probably best if you contacted a few doctors and see what feedback you get. The responses will help you decide on which option to take. As already mentioned, you could include Dr Bhatti in this list amongst others. __________________________________________________ Dr Bhatti FUE Oct 2014 3305 grafts http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/178931-my-fue-dr-tejinder-bhatti-oct-2014-a.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member TommyLucchese Posted October 31, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 Harley Street is place, not a doctor. Look for clinics where the name of the clinic is the doctor's own name - you know who you're dealing with then. 2,000 grafts FUT Dr. Feller, July 27th 2012. 23 years old at the time. Excellent result. Need crown sorted eventually but concealer works well for now. Propecia and minoxidil since 2010. Fine for 8 years - bad sides after switching to Aindeem in 2018. Switched to topical fin/minox combo from Minoxidil Max in October 2020, along with dermarolling 1x a week.

Regular Member jaypee2502 Posted October 31, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 Thanks for replies. I understand whats being said, the whole abroad thing seems very daunting. Like theres no way i would go all the way to india for a hair transplant as i suffer with anxiety aswell. I have no idea how to search for doctors within the UK or any other place in europe for that matter. When i google for reliable hair transplants and those recommended within the UK, it still comes up with Harley Street :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member needmoarhair Posted October 31, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 Dr Lorenzo in Madrid, Dr Bisanga in Brussels, along with a few others in Brussels - don't limit yourself to the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member jaypee2502 Posted November 2, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 2, 2015 can anybody shed any light on what this site is all about ? : http://ukhairtransplantclinics.co.uk/ i remember it being featured on the BBC (tv channel) a while ago. However there is absolutely nothing about Doctors or surgeons on there, i have emailed them asking for names, with no reply so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member london81 Posted November 2, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted November 2, 2015 Belgium is very easy and quick by train. I'm from the UK and went there and it was fine. Look into Feriduni and Bisanga in Belguim. If you really want to stay in UK I'd advise to do lots of research and especially on here. The only results I've seen in the UK that have impressed me have been from Dr Reddy. Just take your time and be sure because once it's done it's done. Make sure you pick the best person for you with a proven track record to look after those precious grafts. It's not worth a gamble. This site is excellent for reccomendations and I'd throughly reccomend Dr Feriduni or Dr Bisanga in Belguim. Just 2 hours train ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member london81 Posted November 2, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted November 2, 2015 Yes I think Belguim is indeed a bit cheaper than the UK. I'm not sure how much by. Belguim has long been regarding as one of the top places to go for FUE with some of the finest surgeons in the world being there. I don't think I Personally would have FUE in the UK to be honest. I just feel it might be a bit of a gamble and the grafts can't be replaced. My top choices were, Dr Feriduni, Dr Bisanga, Dr Maras of HDC and Dr Lorenzo. IF I'd stayed in the UK then I saw only Dr Reddy as an option for FUE. Belguim was ideal for me as it was very easy to get to and close to the UK with world class surgeon.

Senior Member Petchski Posted November 2, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted November 2, 2015 Belgium is your best bet, i agree. I'm going to Madrid to get FUE done with Dr Lorenzo, the flights only just over two hours. In UK, Dr Reddy as mentioned, and maybe the Farjo clinic, these two are probably best for UK as they have some proven results. -------------------------------------- My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Feller Dr Feller Jan '09 2000 grafts Dr Lorenzo Dec '15 2222 grafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member london81 Posted November 2, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted November 2, 2015 I'd love to go to Dr Lorenzo as his work is outstanding. Couldn't afford him though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Petchski Posted November 2, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted November 2, 2015 Yeah no doubting that, although they throw in a 2 day stay in a 4 star hotel. For me though no one beats Dr Lorenzo's before and after photos combined with a video, that's how you document hair transplants, no where to hide when it's done that way. -------------------------------------- My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Feller Dr Feller Jan '09 2000 grafts Dr Lorenzo Dec '15 2222 grafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member feldeghast Posted November 22, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted November 22, 2015 You should consider Turkey also - some excellent surgeons in that country. I travelled there in May from UK - travel time is not prohibitive at all, sure some anxieties travelling post operative but for me the decision was driven by cost (1 factor), experience and a proven track record of results.
