Hair transplants
in London.
London is a consulting room, not an operating theatre. You meet Dr Matee at Portman Square for the assessment and hairline design, then travel to the Kent clinic for the procedure itself.

Getting to the London clinic
Portman Square sits between Marble Arch and Bond Street, a few minutes on foot from either Underground station. Maidstone is around an hour from central London by train.
How it works
Assessed in London, treated in Kent
The Light Centre Marylebone is a consulting room. Dr Matee examines the donor area, measures density, gives a realistic graft count and draws the hairline with you. If surgery is not the right answer, this is where you find out.
Most patients seen at Portman Square live in central or greater London, or commute in from the Home Counties. Kent is the surgical site for almost all of them.
The procedure itself is a single day at the Kent clinic under local anaesthetic, and you travel home the same evening.

An honest answer
Why London is consultations only
It would be straightforward to advertise surgery in central London. Dr Matee does not, because concentrating operating at two sites means one theatre setup, one team and one aftercare process rather than several run to varying standards.
The trade-off is a journey on procedure day. What you get for it is a surgeon working in a room he uses constantly, with the people he always works with — and a follow-up process that does not depend on which city you happened to book in.
Who is seen at Portman Square
Central and greater London, plus commuters from Hertfordshire, Essex, Surrey and Berkshire. For patients in south and east London, Maidstone is often the easier journey of the two.
The appointment
What happens at Portman Square
The consultation is the part that decides your result, which is why it happens in person rather than over photographs. Dr Matee examines the donor area at the back and sides, measures density, and works out how many grafts are genuinely available — not how many you would like.
The hairline is then drawn on you and agreed before anything is booked. Age, face shape and how the hairline will need to look in twenty years all come into that drawing, and it is the single most common reason a transplant reads as obvious when it goes wrong.
If the honest answer is that surgery would not achieve what you are hoping for, or that your loss is still progressing and you should wait, that is what you will be told at this appointment rather than after paying a deposit.
Next step
Making the trip to Kent
Maidstone East sits beside the clinic on Station Road, so it is station to door from central London.
Around an hour
Trains run to Maidstone East from central London. No onward transport is needed at the other end — the clinic is beside the station.
A single day
The procedure runs under local anaesthetic from morning to late afternoon. Most London patients travel down and back the same day.
Back for the review
The twelve-month review is in Maidstone with Dr Matee. It is the one appointment genuinely worth the journey, because it is where the result is judged.
Driving instead? Maidstone is a short run from junction 6 of the M20. Full details of the Kent clinic.

Common questions
Asked before booking
Can I have my hair transplant in London?
No. London is a consultation location only. The assessment and hairline design happen at Portman Square, and the procedure is carried out at the Kent surgical clinic in Maidstone.
How do I get from London to the Kent clinic?
Maidstone is around an hour from central London by train, and the clinic sits next to Maidstone East station. Many London patients travel down and back on the day.
Which Underground station is nearest?
Portman Square is a few minutes' walk from both Marble Arch and Bond Street.
Is the London consultation with Dr Matee himself?
Yes. He conducts the assessment, measures donor density and designs the hairline personally — the same person who will perform the surgery.
Why not operate in central London?
Surgery is concentrated at two sites so the theatre, the team and the aftercare are consistent. A day in Kent buys a better-run procedure than a nearer address would.
