  1. hello, if i could get clarification on this issue im having, it would be very helpful

     

    i have already been on accutane many years ago on a heavy dosage and did fine. i did not have hair loss which i have heard is one of the huge side effects for some people.

     

    i had an eyebrow transplant about two months ago and my strip incision is healed now with no open wound.

     

    im having really bad skin problems and want to go on some more accutane and from what ive researched, doctors vaguely state that i should wait until the full sprouting of the transplants to proceed...so at least 6-12 months. they dont really go into too much detail except because it will inhibit healing but since my donor area is already healed, what other issue might i be looking at? less grafts? hair not sprouting properly? more time taken for hair to come out but still same quality? etc.

     

    my skin is driving me into desperation and i want to control my acne asap but if the accutane is going to reduce my graft survival rate then ill be okay with waiting until all the hairs have sprouted. if its just a matter of the grafted hairs taking longer to sprout, but still ultimately all coming forth in survival in the amount that was expected if i were to not take accutane, then thats a different story...which is why i know what kind of "issues" i might be dealing with if i were to jump on medication.

     

    if the normally high dose of accutane is not appropriate, would it be much less riskier if i did a really really low dose accutane at the moment to at least keep my skin from worsening until all my grafts have sprouted, then turn up the notch once im in the safety zone?

     

    im also on finasteride and wil be asking my own hair transplant doctor as wel of course

     

    thanks for any informed clarifications.

  2. Does anyone know anyting about Transest clinic in Istanbul?

     

    On another note, why are so many Turkish clinics so cheap nowadays? A lot of them are offering 4-5K grafts for 1800-2000+ Euros, equating to about 0.50 USD/graft. What is the deal, certainly this sounds good to be true? Is there some kind of caveeat besides a possibly mediocre job and does anyone have any experience with any of the lcinics that offer this kind of price?

     

    Thank you for the responses.
