Many people I see in my clinic have tried countless remedies and cover-ups over the years to try and stop their hair loss in its tracks. I’m not the only one to see it – big pharmaceuticals have also noticed this trend and capitalised on it as much as possible! The hair loss market is […]
Those of you who live in London might have seen me on the capital’s new television station, London Live, in May. I was being interviewed on the subject of confidence – a concept which usually goes hand-in-hand with conversations about hair transplantation. It’s rare that a patient won’t mention confidence when discussing his or her […]

Of course, having ‘perfect’ eyebrows – just like having a full head of hair – is a cosmetic issue for many. Those who are a little follicularly challenged in the […]
As you may have seen on the news section of our website, our hair transplant surgery was recently featured on the Channel 4 series, Embarrassing Bodies.
