Hair transplant for Leamington Spa patients

What the consultation should cover

Bring a list of your medication and details of any previous hair loss treatment. Explain which changes concern you and what you would like to achieve. Ask the clinician to assess the cause of the loss, your donor hair and the limits of the proposed result.

Before agreeing to surgery, ask who will perform it, where it will take place and how follow-up care is arranged. You can read about Dr Harpreet Kalra before preparing your questions. An enquiry or consultation does not commit you to treatment.

Travelling from Leamington Spa

Leamington Spa railway station is on Old Warwick Road, CV31 3NS. Check the Birmingham arrival station when choosing a service: the onward route to Newhall Street depends on where the train finishes. Include that connection when comparing tickets and appointment times.

If you are coming from Warwick or Kenilworth, start the journey search from your actual address. Travelling into Leamington Spa first may add another connection, so compare the complete journey before choosing where to board.

Allowing for connections and station access

The Leamington Spa station guide lists step-free access to all platforms via lifts and explains the passenger-assistance meeting points. If you need help boarding, check arrangements with the operator. Leave enough time at the Birmingham end for the journey to the building entrance, as well as any station transfer.

Use the Transport for West Midlands journey planner to compare the complete route to Newhall Street. Check services for your appointment date and allow time to reach the building entrance.

Treatment options, results and risks

A hair transplant moves hair from a donor area to an area of thinning or baldness. FUE removes follicular units individually; FUT uses a strip of hair-bearing scalp. Both leave scars. You can also ask whether the DHI approach described on our treatment page is relevant to your proposed plan.

Surgery has risks, including bleeding, infection, a reaction to anaesthetic and an unsatisfactory result. Some grafts may not grow, and surrounding hair can continue to thin. The NHS hair transplant guide explains these limitations. Ask the surgeon how they apply to you and what would happen if you needed further care.

The photographs above show individual results from our clinic group. They do not predict your outcome. When viewing before and after photographs, ask about the treatment performed and the time between the pictures.

Costs and planning any further visits

Ask for a written quote based on the proposed treatment. Check what it includes, how follow-up is provided and whether any additional visits or treatment would carry a separate charge. Our hair transplant cost guide explains the questions to raise before booking.

For a journey from Leamington Spa, ask how any later reviews would be arranged as well as how the first visit works. Confirm which appointments require attendance and where they take place before committing to treatment.

Recovery instructions depend on the procedure and your circumstances. Discuss work, washing, exercise and transport with the treating team. The aftercare guide and recovery timeline are general information; follow the instructions given for your own treatment.
