From the moment i walked into my first…
From the moment i walked into my first consultation with Cheryl, I felt completely at ease and not pressured. Every step of the journey was handled with care, thoughtfulness, and professionalism, which made what could have been a daunting experience feel relaxed and stress free.
Dr Farjo and Dr Zyan were outstanding. They took the time to explain everything clearly, kept me informed throughout, and always made me feel comfortable and reassured. Their expertise was obvious, but what stood out was their kindness and the genuine care they showed at every stage.
I also want to thank the incredible team around them. Everyone was so attentive and supportive, and they all played a part in making the experience such a positive one.
I genuinely cannot thank them all enough for everything they have done, and i will always be grateful for how they looked after me
I had a great experience at Farjo Hair…
I had a great experience at Farjo Hair Institute in Manchester. The entire process was incredibly smooth from start to finish, and the whole team made me feel comfortable throughout. Everyone was friendly, attentive and extremely professional.
Dr. Farjo personally led my procedure, working alongside Dr. Zayn Sattar, and I felt I was in very capable hands throughout. Everything was explained clearly, and the procedure itself went much more smoothly than I had expected.
My recovery has also been a breeze so far. Overall, I’m extremely happy with my experience and would highly recommend Farjo Hair Institute and the entire team.
A perfect day in the hands of lovely and dedicated professionals.
I had my initial online consultation with Dr Zayn Sattar on 19/08, who was really warm personable and professional, making me fully aware what I should expect from surgery and answering all my questions openly and with understanding. Based on my situation we decided on 1800 FUE grafts plus PRP to help with the healing.
Then in the week leading up to the surgery my partner got a cold, and I was anxious that I might get it too and have to move the date. I informed the clinic straight away, and everyone I spoke to was completely understanding and accommodating, helping to put my mind at ease as I provided updates to them through the week.
Fortunately when the surgery date came on 10/09 I was absolutely fine. Upon arrival at the clinic in Manchester, I was impressed with how stylish and modern the place felt, and even more impressed with how welcoming the team were, and how keen they were to make me feel at ease.
Dr Sattar was just as lovely in person, and walked me through exactly how the day would go. I didn't want to make the mistake of telling a professional where I thought my hairline should be, and fortunately from his high experience he marked on my head EXACTLY where I thought it needed to be to keep my transplant looking natural and in line with my age, whilst also future-proofing for further changes as I get older. Each time he made a mark he explained the reasoning behind his decision, and I completely agreed with his choice.
He took some pre-op photos of my hairline, then we went upstairs where I got changed into the appropriate gear for surgery. The team again walked me through what the procedure would entail, and explained to me what every pill I was taking would do for me.
Then the surgery itself went perfectly! The initial injections to numb my head weren't as painful as the web had led me to believe - less painful then the dentist or having your blood taken - because Dr Sattar used what felt like a vibrating massager (lol) to distract me.
Then the rest of the day was really relaxed. I spent 2 hours lying on my front in a confortable reclining chair while Dr Sattar extracted the follicles from the back of my head (where I had a semi-snooze and listened to the radio - shout out to The Spice Girls). Then another hour or so facing the telly while he made the incisions on my forehead for where the follicles would be placed. Then the nurses worked together with Dr Sattar as a coordinated team, spending the rest of the day inserting the follicles they had extracted. All the while they explained to me what they were doing and why, answered all my questions, and constantly checked in on how I was feeling while I watched Netflix and Disney+ and took breaks at the appropriate times. I joked that I felt like I was having a spa treatment and should get my nails done too.
Once the procedure was over, they gave me a detailed breakdown of what I needed to do for aftercare, providing all the bits I needed, and let me know I could contact them anytime I needed if I had any queries or issues. Then Dr Sattar took some final post-op photos, and I was on my way home!
All in all, the day was a dream. It was so much nicer than I thought it could be, and all my anxieties beforehand dissipated as soon as I saw how experienced, friendly and accommodating the whole team was.
Now I'm just waiting for the visible results of their hard work, which I know will be months from now. I hope to provide further updates as the new hair grows in.
Thank you so much, Dr Sattar and team, for such a lovely experience! 11/10 from me. I couldn't recommend it more.

Had my hair transplant today by Dr Zayn and his team at the Farjo Manchester clinic. They were so professional and accommodating, put me at ease and explained everything throughout the day.
Very much looking forward to the results
Great Result
This is the second review I have written for Farjo Hair Institute. It's nearly 12 months since I had my hair transplant and just wanted to say that I am absolutely delighted with the result, I had no complications and healed really well, I followed the aftercare treatment to the latter.
Once again I would highly recommend Mr Williams and the team at Farjo Hair Institute .
Anyone thinking about having this procedure, go along have a consultation, you will not look back.
From my first phone call the customer…
From my first phone call the customer care and friendliness was exceptional. Everything was explained in detail particularly by Doctor Williams who was forthright to the point with no sales pitch! The staff assisting him with the procedure were also efficient thorough and professional. I made the right choice!
Outstanding Care from Start to Finish
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience at Farjo Hair Institute.
From the moment I arrived, everyone was friendly, welcoming and professional. Dr. Williams was outstanding—he made me feel completely relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire day, explained everything clearly, and regularly checked that I was okay.
The whole team were excellent. They worked seamlessly together, were incredibly reassuring, and made what could have been a daunting experience feel easy. I experienced no pain or discomfort during the procedure, which was a pleasant surprise.
The level of care and attention I received was first class from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Farjo Hair Institute to anyone considering a hair transplant. Thank you to Dr. Williams and the whole team for making it such a positive experience.
A wonderful experience with Dr Williams…
A wonderful experience with Dr Williams and his team, facilitated expertly by Cheryl. Can't thank you all enough!
Great experience
This week, I had a hair transplant at Farjo Hair Institute Manchester. I was quite nervous about getting this done, but everyone at the clinic was extremely kind and reassuring from my first consultation over 2 years ago to the day of the procedure this week. A special thank you to Dr. Zayn Sattar and all of the staff who were involved in my treatment and care on the day. Everyone was extremely friendly and they made me feel comfortable throughout the process.
I’m already really pleased with how everything looks so far and I’m excited to see the final results over the coming months and years. The level of care and attention I received has been excellent, and I felt in good hands throughout my journey. I’d definitely recommend Farjo Manchester to anyone considering a hair transplant.

Dr Williams and his amazing team.
I would like to say a huge Thank you to Dr Williams and his team who recently carried out my hair transplant procedure. From my initial consultation with Dr Williams, I felt at ease, he explained what results could be achieved in a natural looking way and what would be the best procedure for me. His calmness, caring attitude and professionalism shone through during my whole process.
I would like to thank Cheryl, my patient manager for all her support. I would definitely recommend Dr Williams and the Farjo Hair Institute. Tony

Wonderful Experience :)
This is my third hair transplant at the Farjo hair Institute Manchester.
I like to go when I see a thinning area, rather than do it with an all in one major surgery after going bald etc.
Luckily for me, after looking at a few UK clinics before I had my first one and that I didn't want to risk going to Turkey, so I decided to go with Farjo.
From the moment I got there around 7-30am I was treated like Royalty.
The whole experience was pain free by Dr Farjo and his wonderful assistants, where some of the lovely nurses were still working there from my first transplant years ago, which tells you everything about this clinic if they can keep quality staff.
At 62, people always say how good my hair looks and can't believe 'in fact shocked' that it's mostly from a hair transplant when I tell them.
I have also recommended a few friends who are also happy from going there.
I wouldn't risk a cheaper option anywhere as the Farjo clinic prices are reasonable anyway, especially for the quality of care as you don't get a second chance with hair if matters go wrong...
I'm extremely happy and even if another clinic offered me a hair transplant for free I wouldn't take it.
You feel wonderful with a good head of hair, especially when older. I'm just feel lucky for choosing the Dr Farjo Institute.
Thank you all again for everything!

Results Worth Repeating
This is my second hair replacement procedure with the Farjo team, and once again, the experience has been exceptional.
My first FUE procedure took place in February 2021, and I was absolutely delighted with the results. At that time, I understood that a second treatment would be required, which I have now completed March 2026.
On both occasions, the insight, professionalism, service, and aftercare provided by the team have been faultless. The entire process is understandably daunting, but the level of expertise and reassurance given throughout makes a significant difference.
Cheryl has been my main point of contact and has been outstanding—highly professional, responsive, and incredibly accommodating in coordinating every aspect of the journey.
Dr. Williams is clearly at the top of his field. He brings a calm authority, depth of experience, and thoughtful guidance that inspires real confidence in what can otherwise feel like an intimidating process.
This is a true testament to the entire clinical team. I would not hesitate to recommend Farjo to anyone considering hair loss treatment.

Very disappointed with my results and the zero contact post op
Very disappointed with this clinic and the results that I ended up with… I initially went in for my procedure after the usual consultations leading Upto it, up to this point they were fine to deal with, it was only a small procedure 1500 circa hairs to fill in some gaps around my temple area, I’d say it’s probably one of the most straight forward / easiest procedures they would carry on, it was a big area put it that way… anyway skip to the procedure day and I was advised to come in early for 8am, I won’t bore you with to many details but the procedure felt rushed, was meant to stop for some lunch for 30 mins but they were back in the room where I was left to have my lunch within 10-12 mins so I felt a little uncomfortable with this, anyway we carried on and I was surprised at how little Dr Farjo was involved, 98% of the procedure is completed by nurses so if you’re going to this clinic based on a certain reputation… don’t bother… maybe if you’re a celeb you may get the actual ‘DR’ service but for me it was completed by I believe 3 nurses crowded around my head.
They told me at the end of the day that there would be regular check ups and consultations to generally check the progress which gave me confidence, I paid just under £7000 for this basis Fue transplant and now we are 16 months later I’ve never heard from them once… I’ve sent a couple of emails but no reply…. I do recall when I first registered my interest the contact from the clinic was relentless in basically securing my deposit, Cheryl I believe who is employed on the sales side will sell you a good solid caring clinic but as I’ve found and a few others from reviews I’ve now read it just isn’t genuine, they don’t actually care about long term progress or results, they are only interested in your money, absolutely gutted as i had a choice of a few clinics but I went with Farjo as they were local and now I’m massively regretting that decision.
Overall my results are really poor, I’d say I’m 5/10% better than when I first went in… it’s not very noticeable at all and for what I paid they should have got this right as it was a small area around my temples, nowhere else, I believe they used to few donor hairs, the job was rushed and it felt they were more interested at finishing at 6pm rather than providing me with what I had paid for, don’t forget they also started my procedure 2 hours late at 10pm when I was told it would start at circa 8am, no explanation needed as given for this.
I went to this clinic based on the reviews I had read about Dr Farjo but I ended up with an extremely poor experience and I'm now in the process of researching alternative clinics to try and put it right which feels a massive let down when I already paid a substantial amount to them.
It feels like if you’re a profile or a celeb you may get the service from Dr Farjo and potentially get good results but please don’t make the mistake that I did and go to this clinic based on reviews for Dr Farjo as it’s highly unlikely he will be a part of your hair transplant on the day, he just does a quick check at the end, the main process will be left to the nurses , I just wish I knew this before I parted with £7000.
I’m sure they will reply as they have to other negative reviews and suggest they don’t recognize me or they have no record of me but please believe me this is a true factual story and it’s taken me a long time to come around to leave this review as initially I was going to leave it but I’ve come to the conclusion that others need to be warned that this clinic is not all that it’s cracked up to be unless maybe you’re a ‘profile’ if you’re just a general layman like me then all they see is your money and I believe you will get a poor procedure overall with no serious input from Dr Farjo.
Please check reviews online and there is also a video or two on YouTube called ‘my Farjo hair transplant nightmare’ I just wish I had seen this pre op but here’s your chance that if you haven’t had your op yet to do some serious research and fact finding before you part with your hard earned cash.
The results are one thing but what I’ve found massively disappointing is the fact once i had my op they didn’t contact me a single time to see how I was getting on, despite saying that they would at different stages, like 6 months, a year etc…I find that now to be extremely revealing and says a lot about them.
Yes I did contact them twice but didn’t hear back once……
This is a completely factual story and should Farjo hair institute try to deny it like they have with some other bad reviews I will be following up with further information.
***massively disappointed**

Outstanding Care, Exceptional Professionalism, and Fantastic Results
I recently visited the Farjo Hair Institute for my hair transplant on 03/03/2026, and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. Dr. Farjo and his team truly went above and beyond, not only prior to my appointment but throughout the entire procedure.
Before the day of the transplant, the communication and support were second to none. Every question I had was answered promptly and clearly, and the team made sure I felt fully prepared and reassured. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident long before I even walked through the door.
On the day of the procedure, the care I received exceeded all expectations. Dr. Farjo and his team were incredibly supportive, attentive, and genuinely caring. They checked on me constantly, ensured I was comfortable at every stage, and created a calm, reassuring environment. Their skill, precision, and dedication to their work were truly impressive.
What really stood out was the team’s willingness to go above and beyond in every way. They were patient, friendly, and completely focused on providing the best possible experience. It’s rare to encounter such a combination of expertise and genuine compassion.
And most importantly—I’m super happy with the result of my transplant. The outcome has exceeded my expectations, and I’m extremely grateful for the remarkable work the team has done.
I would highly recommend the Farjo Hair Institute to anyone considering a hair transplant. The professionalism, care, and outstanding results speak for themselves.

had an excellent experience with Farjo Hair Institute. From the initial consultation through to the procedure and aftercare, everything was handled with the highest level of professionalism and care.
Dr Farjo is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to understand what will suit each individual. His attention to detail and expertise gave me complete confidence throughout the process. The FUE procedure was carried out with precision and care.
The entire team is welcoming, supportive, and makes you feel comfortable from start to finish. You are treated with genuine respect and warmth, which makes a big difference.
I would highly recommend Farjo Hair Institute to anyone in the UK or internationally who is considering a hair transplant.

Kate Murphy - Super Professional Team
From first dealing with Cheryl, to then meeting Dr.Williams and his super professional team, I was really looked after throughout the whole process. I was taken aback by how many staff were involved and the level of precision required. I am super hard to please and hardly ever give 5 stars for treatment, but on this occasion I would have no reservation to recommend Greg Williams and his team to everyone, as he is an absolute perfectionist.

Experiencing female pattern hair loss…
Experiencing female pattern hair loss was a tough challenge that impacted my confidence. Although I attempted to disguise the thinning area with a clever 'comb over,' I still noticed the shiny scalp when the light caught it. My hairdresser recommended Dr. Farjo, and nine months ago, I met him for a consultation. He patiently described how he would transfer hair from the thick growth at the back of my head to fill in the sparse area. Yesterday marked the procedure day. I arrived at the Manchester clinic at 7:30 a.m. for the pre-op routine, including sedation and medical checks. Throughout the nearly 12-hour process, 1,800 hair plugs (around 5,000 hairs) were transplanted from the back to the front of my head. The team ensured my comfort, providing breaks, snacks, and a light lunch while explaining post-op care, including how to wash my hair starting the next day. The downtime is about a week for intense activities like gym workouts, and thankfully, I can visit the hairdresser in just a week. Dr. Farjo and his team were wonderful, offering pillows to keep me comfortable while I stayed in various positions throughout the day.They advised sleeping slightly elevated and provided a cover to protect against any potential mess. I also received medication to take home. After a restful night's sleep, I'm eager to gently wash my hair today. This decision feels like an important investment in myself, and I’m excited to see my new look in the coming months.
5 star
Bessam, Nilofer and the team at Farjo are fantastic. I first went for a consultation around 4/5 years ago and was advised to start finasteride, regaine and viviscal which I did. During this time my hair improved, which was great. In late 2025 I noticed the receding again particularly on one side. I booked a repeat consultation to talk through my concerns particularly regards anaesthetic administration pain during the procedure (after reading a few horror stories online at other clinics). I had no need to worry. The procedure was comfortable and 95% pain free (any small twinges were over in a few minutes). The team at Farjo care about their clients, are patient, reassuring and aim for a quality/natural end result. As an anxious person pre procedure I have left feeling on top of the world. Highly recommend x

Great experience
Great experience at the Manchester clinic for another procedure with Farjo Hair. I had my first procedure in 2022 which was good but on this occasion it was even better!
Communication prior to the procedure was thorough in terms of both the administrative aspects and also the technical details.
On the day of the procedure, I felt at ease very quickly. The consultation with Dr Bessam Farjo was meticulous; he showed empathy and clearly took on board my preferences. During the procedure, staff kept me updated with what they were doing including Dr Farjo telling me towards the end that he was checking the areas worked on. I found the process reassuring.
The whole premises had a pleasant ambience being very comfortable, clean and well decorated which makes a difference. A full lunch was provided in a room away from the operating theatre - this was a nice touch as it’s good to have a break away from the main room.
All of the staff were very friendly and approachable throughout the day. Special mention to Sara (surgery manager) and the lady dealing with the administrative details & post-surgery protocol. There were some decisions to be made on the day and it was important to have good communication.
I also had a telephone call a few days after surgery just to check that everything was satisfactory. Again, this is reassuring.
Results from the procedure will be seen in due course, but I’m very confident that it will come out well.
Overall, this is certainly a place I would recommend.
