Achtergrond

Dr Matt Egan is de oprichter van The Egan Hair Transplant Clinic in Colchester, Verenigd Koninkrijk 1. De kliniek zegt dat alle consulten en ingrepen in haar kliniek in Colchester plaatsvinden 2. Zijn bio zegt dat hij in 2014 afstudeerde aan Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry en in 2017 zijn opleiding in haarherstel afrondde 3. Volgens de bio werkte hij daarvoor in de KNO-heelkunde, algemene chirurgie, intensive care en spoedeisende geneeskunde 3. Ook zegt de bio dat hij drie en een half jaar bij HQ Hair Transplants in Cardiff werkte als chirurg en medisch directeur 3. De kliniek heeft nog twee chirurgen, Dr Daniel Ness en Dr Ryan Perry, plus een coördinator en vijf technici 1.

Behandelingen en technieken

De kliniek biedt FUE en FUT (strip) aan, alleen voor het hoofd 4. Ze zegt dat ongeveer 95% van de patiënten geschikt is voor FUE, met strip of een gecombineerde ingreep in sommige gevallen 4. Ze zegt voor alle FUE-ingrepen het WAW DUO FUE-systeem te gebruiken 5. Ze zegt dat de chirurg de incisies in het ontvangende gebied maakt 5. Haar FUT-pagina zegt dat technici de strip onder een microscoop verdelen 6. De chirurg tekent de haarlijn op de dag zelf, en er worden foto's gemaakt zodat de patiënt het ontwerp kan goedkeuren 7. De kliniek zegt dat er op één dag doorgaans tot ongeveer 4.000 grafts mogelijk zijn, waarbij grotere gevallen worden verdeeld over twee ingrepen met 3 tot 6 maanden ertussen 8.

Prijzen

De kliniek rekent niet per graft; ze hanteert een vaste prijs op basis van het te behandelen gebied en een schatting van het aantal grafts 8. De prijzen verschillen per chirurg, met Dr Egan in de hoogste categorie 8. Bij Dr Egan staat een voorste derde deel of grote kruin van ongeveer 3.000 grafts vermeld voor £9.950 8. Zijn vermelde prijzen lopen van £6.950 voor ongeveer 2.000 grafts tot £18.950 voor een Norwood 6-geval in twee sessies 8. De kliniek zegt dat de definitieve prijs bij het consult wordt bepaald 8. De prijzen omvatten de ingreep, producten voor na de ingreep, 24/7 nazorg met het telefoonnummer van de chirurg, haarwassen op dag 1 en 7, en controles na 3, 6, 9 en 12 maanden 8. Een consult bij Dr Egan kost £195, per video of persoonlijk, en wordt niet terugbetaald of verrekend met de ingreep 8.

Boeken en nazorg

De kliniek zegt dat een ingreep meestal één dag duurt, doorgaans 5 tot 10 uur, en dat grotere gevallen twee dagen duren 4. Patiënten kunnen op dag 1 en 7 langskomen voor een haarwas, of in plaats daarvan een gesprek hebben als ze van ver komen 7. Ze zegt dat controles meestal na 3, 6, 9 en 12 maanden plaatsvinden 7.

Kwalificaties en lidmaatschappen

De directory van de ISHRS vermeldt Matthew Egan in Colchester als Full Member 9. Zijn bio zegt dat hij Full Medical Member is van de British Association of Hair Restoration Surgery en geeft als GMC-registratienummer 7461688 3.

    Backward_Welshman had a repair with Dr Matt Egan in January 2025 after two earlier transplants at a UK hairmill: a 3,194-graft FUE for a fixed fee of £7500, about 200 grafts over the quote, with a wait of about 3 months after the consult. Egan removed about 200 grafts from the hairline, replaced others at correct angles with single hairs and added midscalp density, and said the donor was challenging because of earlier scarring and depletion. At 10 months he wrote 'I’m really happy with how things have turned out', reported no noticeable scarring and said Egan and his team were amazing.

He had an earlier 2019 transplant elsewhere that looked extremely unnatural and lacked density. At 6 months he says he is "over the moon" with a very natural, thick result, praises WhatsApp contact with Egan and his team during healing, and says he would 100% go back for a further crown transplant.

    vsma663 had a second procedure of about 2000 grafts with Dr Matt Egan in 2025, paying 6k, after an earlier 2700-graft procedure with another surgeon that he felt was rushed with poor density. He says Egan listened, explained how to fix the issues, and personally did all incisions, extractions and numbing. At 5 months he is happy with the density, though he still wants the hairline a bit lower, and says he "could not recommend him enough" for a UK surgeon.

In November 2024 they said "I think Matt Egan’s results are some of the best I’ve ever seen", with better density and hairlines, and that they would probably book with him even though he is now in London. By July 2025 they had booked in with Egan at his new clinic later that year. They have not reported surgery yet.
