  1. This pictures show my experiemce with an FUE trasnplant. At first I was nervous the results were going to be poor because of scarring, i was happy to see that only lasted a few months. My hairline post 7 months looks awesome!
  2. wow this looks great. i hope mine comes out at smooth as yours
  3. hi dvdnicholl my name is donald and i flew from california to see dr. maral. i had my transplant done on may 31, 2014. my experience with him and his team was great... i will post pics on my experience and maybe a video in a few weeks when i feel less lazy to gather all the info and present it well for the community
  4. hi guys so this is my second post where i start a new thread. i have booked with dr. maral in istanbul for may 30. i was thinking about taking photos 2 days before the surgery and uploading that along with my progress.. what part of the forum and thread would i do so? thanks you guys for any and all guidance.
  5. After reading this entire thread in addition to having frequent quick responses with doctor maral and a skype date i must say, he seems like a genuine guy in the business to truly bring us quality service at a highly affordable price. I do not have the funds to see him as soon as i would like but i am saving up my chips to see him as soon as possible.
  6. Thank you for your input. I have been using finasteride since nov. 2, 2013. Almost 4 months this coming march. Maybe ill grow my hair out a bit longer and retake some photos So you can get a better idea. I am always wearing baseball caps And beeniea now. Thanks again
  7. Hello my name is Donald and I do not know who to trust for a FUE operation within my price range. I hate to sound cheap, I am just not that economically privileged. After selling most of my material goods (television, computer...etc) I have about $2,500 I can spend towards the operation itself. I have allocated $800 for flight/hotel/transportation costs. So I have about $3,300 to make this happen for myself. I live in San Francisco California and thought about possibilities in Turkey and Mexico after reading other peoples posts. I have attached pictures of my current hairline and my desired hairline (if its even a possibility because of my budget) . I am currently a full time student going to school Monday through Friday, morning til evening so I was thinking about a weekend project or 3 day weekend by taking either a friday or monday off. I do not know what other information is needed from me but I am very serious so any and all advice is greatly appreciated. Thank You I should note, I am now 27 years old. Tall White/European American Male Also I have inquired already with 3 different surgeons in USA, Turkey and Mexico, all of them quoting me with a different yield. One says 1,000 grafts is enough, another 1500 and another 2300?....i wonder why the dramatic difference in recommended amount of hair needed to be transplanted. From the way my hair is at present (attached picture) what does this community think?
