Bump for additional advice

Excellent post! Thanks for taking the time to type that.

This really scares me off. Becoming recommended got too easy I suppose.

$$$$$

So I fly out March 31 to go see Dr. Erkan Demirsoy for a 3,500-4,000 graft hair transplant.

I would appreciate any tips that will make my trip and flights more enjoyable.

A list of things I've come up with so far:

-Power outlet adapter

-Neck pillow

-Sleeping meds for the 16hr flights

-Button up shirts

Any more suggestions?

Slowmoe, Iam too planning a ht with Dr. Demirsoy. Do you know if they offer financing or are you paying your balance when you get to the clinic in Turkey? Good Luck on everything and will be following your journey!

Hey,

As far as I know there is no financing available. You should contact Clemens Weber on here to find out for sure.

Just remember, people with experience keep saying you will look like you did before the surgery, before it gets better. Get used to wearing that cap and be patient!

Very nice write up man.

I wonder if wearing a wig in the airport would be an option?

My current state of hair loss

Hey,

I am from the U.S., Oklahoma specifically, and I have been searching for a FUE surgeon who has proven to provide good results and of course is reasonably priced. After reviewing many surgeons from the U.S., India and Turkey I came across Dr. Demirsoy, who hashas many years running his own practice and is very reasonably priced, at least 5x less than lesser FUE docs in the states.

So basically I am 33 years of age, been balding since i was about 16 and have norwood class 5V balding, and am hoping that in 2 surgeries, roughly 3k-3.5k grafts apiece, I can have my teenage hairline back and get back density in my crown. I am not expecting to have a full head of hair, but if I can frame my face well and not have a bald spot on top of my head, It will be a very drastic improvement.

So at this point, I have sent my deposit of 500 euro via western union to Demirsoy's assistant, as directed by Clemens Weber who handles Dr. Demirsoy's booking, and have a surgery date of June 30, 2014.

I will keep this topic updated as things unravel.
