Reviews
Dr.Glenn Charles quality has been going down for years… my transplant along with many others is proof of that: I actually have less hair after the transplant than before. I understand shock loss but what is really odd is that my 3 week pictures look the same as my 1 yr and 18 month photos… on top of that he missed an entire section on the hairline which was the whole point of the hairline
I underwent a hair transplant surgery with Dr. Glenn Charles in 2020, opting for the FUT procedure. My experience with him was disappointing and concerning, to say the least. Despite being assured that one procedure would suffice, I ended up with a scar as a result of his misleading information. Dr. Charles misrepresented the density and number of grafts that could be obtained from the FUT procedure, leading to unrealistic expectations. Moreover, his lack of attention and minimal follow-up care, limited to stitch removal, was disheartening. My post-surgery results were far from satisfactory, mirroring the sentiments of many others I’ve encountered on various forums. The discrepancy between his online ratings and the reality of patient experiences, including my own, is alarming and misleading.
I’ve been thinking of having a hair transplant for a while now, that’s why I took many opinions and visited many clinics. One of the clinics I visited is Dr. Charles’ clinic. The consultation was a good one but still have some open questions.
I went to Dr. Charles’ clinic for a hair treatment due to a friend’s recommendation. I liked the consultation, and the aftercare was very good, while the procedure and hygiene were a little bit less impressive than I expected.
