  1. Could be your pics wasn’t too good to understand?

    Who did you speak with?

     

    I actually just called there the other day and had a friendly conversation with the girl handling my case patient coordinator Andreea very nice

    She said send more pictures and she'll speak with Erdogan again

    So will see what happens

     

    Your 20day progress pictures look way ahead of most others I've seen

    Am i wrong ?

  2. Your hair loss is similar to mine. I been using a Haircolor Touch-Up Stick for years easy to apply and unnoticeable simple product saves my ass I couldn't live with out it difference is like night and day

    Good to hold you over till you get your head fixed

    Super cheap on ebay I use dark brown link below

  3. Just wanted to post results, I have just recently competed 1700 graft FUE procedure and i can say I think it turned out great. The procedure went smooth, Dr Nadimi is incredibly intelligent and not to mention beautiful. She is kind of a hard ass though which I liked. She was realistic with me and told me what would look best vs what I wanted. Which was a typical hey look at this movie star I want that hairline scenario. I was naive as to how much hair I'd actually lost. The facility was clean, music was relaxing and the procedure took 8 hours give or take. She is great I'd recommend her I think my results were great. It is only first day so I will keep progress updated to see how it really turns out.

     

    Thought she only did 1500 graphs max according to this guy here did she mention that to you also ?

  4. Could really use some help narrowing down choosing some alternatives ??

     

    Feeling a bit lost now not knowing my next move and who to consider as an alternative ??

     

    Took a long long time to settle on a doctor and for me it was really a struggle

    Now its like back to square one again :(

     

    What other doctors can compare with Erdogan based on these key factors?

     

    1. His Record : Maybe 100% satisfaction I don't think you can find another doctor with as positive a record you'd be hard pressed to find anyone not extremely satisfied with there results including everyone that sees them.

     

    2. Results : His results he always seems to hit it right

     

    3. Price : Price at-least something close not double

  5. Thanks for the reply's

     

    I just had a local inperson consult with Dr. Glenn Charles here in Boca Raton Florida not even a week ago and he didn't see any miniaturization donor hair issues he looked though my head with the magnifying glasses and said my donor area looks strong and good to go

     

    Thinking maybe were over analyzing things a little with this demarcation line separations?

    Hair loss comes in all shapes and sizes some have more and some have a less distinct separation or as you said demarcation line separating the donor zone from the recipient zones

     

    I'm 59yrs old been loosing my hair very slowly since my late 20s its finally getting to the point where its becoming more noticeable and difficult to camouflage thinking I want to get something done while I"m young enough to enjoy it

     

    The Dutasteride is maybe not a bad idea whats the typical dose people are taking of the stuff ?

  6. Yes I'm on HRT for around 15yrs already Testosterone and HCG under one of the best doctors supervision have blood work done every 6months on my last blood work my DHT levels were low normal 26 from taking Fin no ides how that translates to the levels on mt head

    The Fin is what originally messed me up in the first place to get my on the HRT but thats a story for another day

    Anyways at this point I'm desperate enough with my hair to go back on that crap again luckily its not making things worse the damage it did to me in the first place is always done

  7. Below posted some links just a small sample of many of Erdogan's previous cases people with all stages of loss including diffusion or as they say miniaturized hairs many much worse then me

     

    To me this miniaturized hair argument in my case doesn't seem to make alot of sense Unless he feels staying on Fin longer will strengthen up remaining hairs?

    But I'm not seeing that I've been on that crap for like a year already and don't really see that happening in fact I've lost more hair in the past year then in the past

     

    Anyways since my donor area is strong and not seeing miniaturized hairs in there what does it matter I mean hes going to tight pack 5k graphs right over the whole defusing area anyways like he does in almost all his similar cases many which have alot less hair some with none at all up there

  8. Yeah actually this is the second time I've sent him pictures about 7 months ago i sent him pictures under better light and he shot me down with the same similar minaturized hair mess and also recommended Fin

    So this time I took a shot at a different lighting approach trying to make it look as if after being on the Fin now for over a year my hair had thickened up. Actually Fins not working for me and hair loss is just getting worse head is ripe and my and brain is ready to get the HT Sucks he keeps shooting me down don't really an alternative doctor was set on using Erdoğan

     

     

    Below is some of the pictures I sent him last time and his past reply back to me

    Whats up with the minaturized hair? Never heard that before

     

     

    After analyzing your photos Dr. Koray Erdoğan found that you have high precentile of minaturized hair. The surgery at this stage can cause shock loss.

    Therefore Dr. Koray Erdogan recommends Finasteride to give strength to your hair and increase density.

    It might help you increase thickness and density of the existing hair. The hair is going to grow stronger and thicker.

  9. After maybe 10yrs on the forums struggling to settle on which doctor to go with finally got it together got my brain straight ready to actually go have the procedure done did my consult with Erdogan and boom he shoots me down says I'm not a good candidate because I have miniaturized hair ? WTF is miniaturized hair never even heard of it ?

    Looking for advice feedback trying to figure out my next move? Thinking about calling Erdogans office and trying to discuss my situation with them has anyone even called in to them wondering do they have someone there speaking English well enough to talk to ?

    Anyways here's what there reply was below.

     

     

    Hello,

    First of all, thank you for your interest in our services. We have studied the information and the pictures you sent us and Dr. Koray has indicated that you are not recommended to undergo a hair transplant surgery. You have miniaturized hair, but you do not have a very high hair loss. The recommandation would be for you to continue with the Finasteride, this will help you with your miniaturized hair, by making it stronger and stop losing it. If we would perform the hair transplantation the result would not be a satisfying one, given that you will not be halppy with the result, while with the medication the result will be more successful.

    Thank you again for your interest in our services,

    Regards,

     

    Here's a couple of the pictures i sent him

  10. I am considering Dr. Ekrem Civas. He has a long time experience, and he is one of the IARHS members from Turkey beside Dr. Erdogan and Dr. Doganay. Dr. Ekrem Civas also is a recommended doctor by the U.S Embassy in Turkey website. I have attached both links for the reference.

    A quick search brought up this thread about Dr. Civas you might want to read
