FUE Hair Transplant

I went to Now hair time last year. The communication was fine, accommodation and transfers smooth that’s really where the positivity ends. Hair transplant was carried out by 2 young techs who honestly spent more time going to smoke than on the procedure, no doctor presence. Seemed far too hung up on whether I had social media accounts, with the translator asking me every 15 minutes - in hindsight I feel this was to see if I have a social media following to assess what kind of job to do, no damage being done to their reputation if I’m not a social media influencer. Hairs placed very sparsely in rows, random scattered hairs all over my head. I knew from the moment my scabs fell that this was terrible but they were adamant it is part of the process and to be patient. They checked in every month which seemed professional until around month 8 where it was clear my results were awful then stopped responding to my updates and I’d only hear again when they wanted another photo update which again they would just ignore. I forced a response at month 12 when they finally admitted I’d need a second transplant and luckily for me, they will offer a discount on the second. I sought out surgeons in the UK which I wish I had just done initially and had a repair and he has very luckily been able to rectify the mess. He advised they took around 5000 grafts from my donor and at most implanted 1000, not the 3000 they’re adamant they did. Fortunately for me I had a lot of hair on my donor area and they were able to take more safely but I’m maxed out now and can never consider another in the future if needed due to Now hair times complete butchering. Do not be fooled by Now hair times social medial presence and honestly now I look with my eyes more open - the results in general are pluggy and unnatural, even the better results are not fantastic. Avoid, spend the little more money to go somewhere reputable because Now hair time really aren’t that cheap and the higher price compared to other hair mills almost fools you into thinking they’re better quality. This is my mistake - don’t make the same one
