Ashley & Martin Medical Hair Care Centre Counters Misleading Statements

Sept 2007

Ashley & Martin, the largest medical hair treatment centre in the southern hemisphere counters misleading statements given by one its ex-sales consultant.

A consistently proactive and highly professional approach has earned Ashley & Martin our status as a household name in Australia, and the largest medical hair treatment centre in the southern hemisphere.

Ever since our inception in 1964, the name Ashley & Martin has always been highly regarded.

Our reputation goes before us, which is why we were quick to investigate claims made in the recent Today-Tonight story.

The consultant involved in this isolated incident has previously had a long and successful employment history and has received many referrals from satisfied clients. Nonetheless he has been suspended and removed from his position as a sales consultant with Ashley & Martin's Adelaide office while we conduct investigations into the claims made against him.

Ashley & Martin employs qualified doctors in every one of our medical hair care centers - as all patients must be seen by a medical practitioner before they are issued with prescription drugs.

Our practitioners are carefully screened at the application stage to ensure they meet our stringent professional standards in the provision of consultancy, diagnosis and treatment.

Our hair care treatments and medications are reviewed continuously by our Medical Director, Dr Mario Terri. A leading scalp specialist in his own right, Dr Terri is responsible for a long succession of developments Ashley & Martin have made in the field of hair regrowth. That said, by no means do we claim to cure hair loss.

There is no cure for hair loss, as yet. However, testimony to the unfaltering attention to detail we’ve applied to our products and services for over 40 years, two credible sources have proven that our exclusive RealGROWTH™ treatment program offers patients an impressive success rate in regrowing hair.

Clinical trials conducted by the leading dermatologist of one of Australia’s most prestigious universities, revealed the program is 98% successful. In addition, findings yielded in a recent independent study by Nielsen stated 98% of patients claim they have experienced hair regrowth since starting the RealGROWTH™ program – with 90% experiencing hair regrowth within the first 6 months of undergoing the program.

There were also results indicating 92% of RealGROWTH™ clients claimed their hair appears healthier, 94 % said their hair loss had stabilised, and 90% agreed they have more hair since commencing the program.

To date, the company has successfully done hair treatment on over 400,000 people worldwide, and we have just recently exported the ‘Ashley & Martin Confidence’ to New Zealand and the United Kingdom. Excellent news for the 50% of men and 40% of women who will experience hair loss in their lifetime.
