Regular Member Tomi Posted October 25, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 25, 2022 @broskiyeah sure why not. I think the more unbiased information out there the better for the next generation of dudes struggling with hair loss. I’m all for breaking the stigma and having a better approach towards a condition that is causing people anxiety and depression. If there is something we can do to help then we should be doing it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot Can I ask sir, why would you book surgery with him and then ask around two days before? 1 1 Hattingen September 2023 - Punchouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Tomi Posted October 25, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 25, 2022 @RTCi booked with a clinic called Wimpole on Harley st in London a few weeks ago. I saw that they have great reviews online and as far as I could tell a reputable clinic so I made my decision based upon the that knowledge, price and availability seeing as I only have a small window of time to do this. I joined this group only 4 days ago and was unaware of its existence prior to booking. Since looking I can see some negative talk about some of Wimpoles surgeons. None about dr dayah… so I thought I’d ask. Hope that answers your question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member RTC Posted October 25, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted October 25, 2022 I see fwiw I think Wimpole will be ok, but they are very conservative and I wouldn't expect a knockout result. But I doubt you will get botched or anything Hattingen September 2023 - Punchouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Tomi Posted October 25, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 25, 2022 Ok thanks @RTC that is the impression I am getting.

Regular Member broski Posted April 28, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 28, 2023 hey mate - i just read your 6 month update and was blown away by your pics. it looks really good to me. i still haven't booked mine in but am tempted after seeing yours - the only thing is im sure i have less than you did to start with and they quoted me only 2400. in an ideal world would you have wanted more done than the 2800 ? how did your donor area hold up and could it of handled more ?

Hey broski thanks for the kind words. Wimpole are super conservative. If I could go back I would have pushed for more like 3,500 but I understand the conservative approach. They were worried about my donor looking north blown so they wanted to see how it looked after a year. After 6 months it is looking super thick back there and I believe I could take another 2-3 k and plan to unless I get considerable density in months to come. Finasteride is also helping so could possibly avoid it. I wouldn’t dissuade you from Wimpole but I would consider options in Spain or even Poland that would do more like 4K for the same price. But Wimpole in my opinion feels like a safe option and I would consider using them again for a second pass next year. If you are really considering a ht I would say just do it, I’m really glad I did. Good luck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one month, recipient area it started to look red and shedding a lot. Two months no improvement. 5-6-7 has been the good months for me so far. One pic at two month.
