KSL Glasgow clinic

[Paxman]

I’m making a fool of myself?? Ha ha..are you for real!...going protesting on the street handing out flyers?? Ok pal lol the jokes on you guys! I bid you good luck because your gonna need it! I’ll sleep peacefully again tonight..

Ignorance really is bliss then I guess...

Well by 3 months the results are really good...so by 9 hopefully they’ll be spot on! How was yours after 3 months David? I would definitely be taking measures to fix the problem but I would absolutely not be standing in the street protesting! I do feel for you guys but disagree with many things you have said! Would you go to another clinic if that was something you could do? I know turkey has very good clinics and at a fraction of the cost!

[David666]

well at 3 months I thought pretty much as you do now, I had no cause for concern, and believe it or not I'm not really the complaining type, I would be here all night typing the in and outs of what happened after I did contact KSL with my concerns, but long story short, I have never dealt with any company as unprofessional and as ignorant as KSL, some of the stuff they came out with or tried to pull you just wouldn't believe, I am infuriated with the shear arrogance of Simon Lindsay, at the start of my problems with them, I thought it was me that was at fault some how, but then when I started to make contact with others in the same situation and received the similar treatment, I was relived I wasn't the only one but horrified that how many people were in the same boat. I realise you can only speak for your experiences, and perhaps KSL have turned over a new leaf, there is a new general manager in Glasgow after all, however you can not deny that there is serious amount of negativity and red flags surrounding KSL hair. to be honest I wouldn't be standing protesting either but it is adding fuel to my cause so I am going to wish them every success.

When did you get your HT? Is it the density that is the problem? Who may I ask did you deal with? Have you had a second op?

[5Pies]

Who is the new general manager?

I am 18 months down the line from mine and while I had the second op a few weeks ago it was to improve density and I have previously posted pics in the thread of the result before the second op.

Can others post their before and after?

[Jamesy]

I have genuine sympathy I really do, I suppose the reason I’m probably getting upset and heated about the situation is the same as Gray, we’re in the early stages and happy thus far, so for someone to try and tell us what is ahead when potentially is not is upsetting. Gray, David has shared his story on here so there no point infuriating him again haha, I guess I hope he finds peace in the end

[Gray100]

5pies how many grafts did you get first and second op? I got around 1850 mainly around the frontal area! Did you have to hassle them for second op? Are yuk happy so far with results??

[Jamesy]

Liverpool1888 where’s your pictures? You seem to be doing a lot of ring leading, how do we know you’re a client?!

[Gray100]

I do apologise for adding fuel to the fire..

This is a sensitive topic! Maybe down the line I will be in the same situation..only time will tell

[5Pies]

Honestly I don’t know - they didn’t tell me or I don’t remember. I think they said 1600 second op and that that packed the area to increase density. I was probably too nervous first time and not as clued up as I am now.

Not at all re second op. Dealt with Andrew weekly from first op for 12 weeks I went in each week to see him with pics each time. Then we moved to monthly and then quarterly up to 15 months.

Every appointment he reviewed the area that looked a bit thin and said if it didn’t improve after 12-18 months they would do it again to thicken up. I didn’t even ask - they offered.

I have phoned them 3/4 times since my op a few weeks ago to ask some follow up questions and I’m booked in for after care starting 25th.

[Gray100]

Pretty much the same as myself..may I ask if you have any concerns? How many months did you stay on laser for?

[David666]

I believe it is Iain, my surgery was 2yrs ago now, I have lots of gaps now, I was dealing with Andrew, he was trying to charge me to do the second surgery, but I questioned this and grudgingly agree to do it for no charge, but he cancelled 2 appointments failed to book in another, all costing me money due to having to travel and get hotels in Glasgow, so after researching more I descovered that you only have a limited amount of donor hair available so if you waste it all with a bad surgeon then a good surgeon will have nothing to work with. I am not letting them near my hair again, another red flag with KSL is you don’t meet the surgeon till the day of the surgery, so all the sales pitch and promises are conducted by non medical staff so what your told by the salesman may not be achievable by the surgeon! I’m going to man up and go bald as nature intended, but maybe Iain is a bit more switched on than Andrew and that kind of incompetence won’t happen anymore!

[Gray100]

Can I also ask 5pies was it the same surgeon as previous? I also was nervous and maybe never asked many questions..same as yourself much more flyer up and if I need a second op I’ll be asking much more

[5Pies]

Obviously concerns that it won’t look thicker but common sense tells me if it looks like it does in the pics I’ve posted here now then after another HT in 12 months it has to look better.

Reading things on here make me nervous but I can only go on so far and that’s all been fine.

I stayed on laser for maybe 3 months? First session after second op booked for 25th of this month.

Mine definitely improved over the months - I remember after 6 weeks thinking it looked great and looking back not there was basically nothing there!

[5Pies]

It was a different surgeon both times.

That’s so strange that is your experience with Andrew - he couldn’t have been better with me and never mentioned charging me again as he said all along if it wasn’t right they would do it again for free.

I have spoken to Iain a few times recently and he’s been great to.
