Hi, I am new to this forum.
I share results of my FUE surgery, which was done in the end of this July.
Doctor: Erkan Demirsoy (via health travels)
Location: Turkey Istanbul
Grafts: 3,164
Method: FUE Micro Motor
Price: 1 Euro/graft + 350 Euros for accommodation and transportation (from and to airport and between hotel and clinic)
I am originally from Asia, and are now living in Europe.
I have been suffering from hair loss in the last couple of years.
Since I decided to take this kind of surgery in the beginning of this year,
I did a lot of research on good doctors.
There are some FUE doctors in Japan, but they charge as much as around 10 dollars per graft!
What is even worse is that they do not have a good reputation on the quality of their surgery.
So, I went for Turkey to get a high-quality surgery at an affordable price.
I saw some good results from Dr. Erkan Demirsory in a German forum and he looks gaining a good reputation.
Another thing is that the price is affordable to me.
I didn't think his price is too low because
Dr. Hakan Doganay used to charge the same price (now his price doubles).
As mentioned by other guys, his clinic is clean and they are kind.
The surgery totally took me over 8 hours, which was a little bit behind the schedule.
During the extraction of grafts,
the doctor explained me that roots of my hairs are deep and so he was extracting them carefully.
He looks honest and reliable.
I am now at 4 months after op, being really satisfied with the result.
Implanted hair is regrowing although it is still thin.
I share 8 photos with you.
I hope this helps you to choose a good doctor.
