    You will not find quality last minute hair transplant surgeons in Turkey. If you want help, the only advice to give is hold on to your money and don't do anything to botch your hair as it it. Not worth the risk.
  2. AB2000
    Now whenever you shave your head it will be irony.

    For the amount of bald area to cover, 10-12,000 would be just enough, which is why he would want to make as much use of your beard. Once you scale back then your crown will not have a chance. Your choice.
  4. AB2000
    Not all beard hair grows out long. Once you get past a certain point under the jaw those will be short in length hairs.

    PIttella has the track record to show that he won't waste your beard grafts. They would be put to maximum use, as their growth phase most closely matches that of head hair. As someone who has had a high Norwood and used a lot of beard hair, I much prefer having them on my scalp and looking less bald. Growing out a beard does nothing for me. And I am not paralyzed with fear that someone is going to grab my face with their hand and peer closely and see tiny dots where the beard growth used to grow out. Many men on here have their priorities wrong.
  6. AB2000 started following Dr. Das, Eugenix | 5,507 grafts | NW7 | 35 yrs old | 2023 , Remove "all" beard hair? , Dr. Pittella - 12.191 grafts - 34 years old and 2 others

    There is an easier way. Just search for the several posts on this forum showing his work for norwood 7's which are shown in great detail.

    I've seen charts like these on here and elsewhere. It's not a guarantee but more a reflection on how normal HT results will progress:

    As an aside, those are fairly good post-op progress photos, in terms of the detail shown.
  10. AB2000
    Should be interesting to see how this goes.
  11. AB2000
    It is highly unlikely you will receive a good result for a few thousand Euros. At that minimal an amount, that means the doctor isn't performing the surgery, but his techs, who are of unknown amount of experience. What you will see around hair loss forums are people posting their botched hair transplants from the Turkish hair mills. The only time I've seen a "good result" is when they over harvest most of your donor and fill in the frontal part of your hairline leaving nothing for future repair work. If you want to waste that money I suggest you take a trip to Las Vegas.
  12. AB2000
    Even SMP for scar camouflage, as opposed to fake density, would help, as that might allow for my style options.
  13. AB2000
    If you are not 100% confident in the provider in Turkey, don't take a chance. Medical tourism is incentivized by their government, so you can't trust clinic's advertising alone. A lot of money can be put into a professional presentation, but with the end result of it being a hair mill with minimal participation by the doctor himself. Your best bet is to go with a place with a track record of independent positive reviews and photo proof provided by patients. It is too costly to get botched.
  14. AB2000
    Good to see you were able to address the source of your anxiety, @Frosted Flaked. There is still a fair amount of beard to use for the next round. I agree that SMP alone can be a problem when people push it too far.
  15. AB2000
    Do you understand that this photo was from the one month mark, where most of the new hairs were dormant? The transplanted hairs fall out before this point. It is as if you didn't look at the progress photos from eight months out.

    This appears to have happened to you a couple of times since December. Why don't you message Melvin-moderator directly?
