Hair Transplant Surgery

The Katie Piper Foundation work to provide access to free hair transplant surgery for people with permanent hair loss due to burn scarring.  We support and give guidance for NHS funding requests, and for those who are refused, we step in to cover the costs surrounding the surgery.  The surgery itself is made possible through the generosity of our partner The Farjo Hair Institute.  Treatments available include restoration of:

– hairline

– scalp

– facial hair

– eyebrows & eyelashes

– other hair bearing areas of the body.

Please contact us for further information. Johanne (Head of Charity Services) can talk to you about the options available and your likelihood of suitability. She can also arrange for you to speak to someone who has received hair restoration via the Foundation to give insight into the process.

Closed to new referrals

Hair Replacement Systems

We continue to fund these for those individuals we are already supporting.  

However, we are no longer taking on any new people for this.  If you have permanent hair loss due to a burn injury and you would like some guidance on the options available, please contact us

Medical Tattooing and make-up support

Similarly to hair replacements, we continue to support those people who have already started on this journey with us.  However, we are not taking on new beneficiaries for these services.

Impact of corona virus on hair and medical tattooing services

During the coronavirus period, if you are an existing client and have questions about when face-to-face appointments might be resumed, or how to best maintain your system or tattooing during this time, please contact your salon.  If you are in discussion about a hair transplant, we are committed to continuing your journey with our partner Farjo Hair.  Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.
