Can I ask for a refund for my hair transplant if I'm unhappy with my results? (Photos)

November 30, 2018
Asked By:FutureAlpha117 in Palo Alto, CA

I've had 2 hair transplants from 2 different doctors. I liked my 1st hair transplant result from 3 years ago. But for my 2nd procedure, I got a very poor result (The 2nd doc is actually on RealSelf). I'm very upset that I lost $16,000 on close to what I'd say is a 15% transection rate. I tried contacting him, but he stubbornly thinks I have a good result. He hasn't replied back when I calmly asked for next steps. What can/should I do?

Answer: If your results are not consistent with what was planned it would be best to discuss your issues with your doctor.
