I’ve had two hair transplants with WMC, the first being an FUT procedures in March 2022 and the second being and FUE procedure in October 2023.
I was told in 2022 that I would most likely need a second procedure because of the amount of my recession, so my expectations were managed.
During the most recent procedure in October 2023, I was so very happy that I received the same high quality of service from the day I booked my initial consultation to the day of the actual procedure.
I decided to opt for FUE simply for the recovery time being shorter. However, having an FUE means the procedure is a little longer. Needless to say, this didn’t negatively impact the care and professionalism I received on the day whatsoever.
On the day itself, I met the surgeon again and the team that would be supporting him. The surgeon and I had a conversation about what I wanted to achieve in terms of appearance, how long the procedure was to last, when there would be lunch / comfort breaks and what to expect.
The procedure itself went without any problems and I was made to feel so at ease and as comfortable as possible. I was given chocolate throughout the day to keep my sugar levels up and lunch was also provided. The operating room was large and looked so clean and tidy. Given how nervous I felt on the day, seeing the preparedness taken made me feel at ease.
When the surgeon had completed the extraction of the hairs to be transplanted, the team supporting him when to work to insert the hairs once these had been assessed. The level of communication and coordination was very impressive and it really made me feel at complete ease.
At the end of the procedure, I had a long conversation with the surgeon about how it went and what to expect over the coming days. I was also given a goodie bag of shampoo, conditioner, pain relief tablets, neck supporter and a hat to take home.
During the days and weeks that have followed, WMG have kept in regular contact with me and always been on hand, happy to respond to an email of telephone call, which has been so very reassuring.
The surgeons will always be honest and realistic with what they can extract and what can be achieved. There is no hard sale whatsoever and you are given the time to think and make an informed decision. You will receive a follow-up email to confirm what was discussed and the costs involved, which is helpful because it’s easy to forget. For me personally, I felt assured in the fact that the procedure was done in London, which is a more easier commute then going abroad, and also having the team easily available to contact if I needed them.
For anyone that is considering a hair transplant I say do it, life is too short to look at reflection in the mirror you don’t like, and to avoid photographs with friends and family being you don’t like what you see.
