  1. Asmed will give you the best looking results, with a laser accurate hairline and enough density to keep you away from the mirrors and camera phones. There is an argument that its become a hair mill (with Dr Koray only doing the incisions), but if you get the results he achieves I wouldn't complain too much. My brother and I went to him and he gave us the hairlines we always desired. 

  2. You need to sweep your hair back before anyone to give an accurate estimate. Have you already had a transplant as your hairline doesn't look natural? Ultimately it all comes down to how good you want your hairline to look. Also, never cheap out on travelling or "convenience" when it comes to surgery as in the long run you'd wish you'd gone to the right surgeon than gone cheap. Good luck.

    This certainly doesn't look like the other review photographs from Dr Reddy that I saw beforehand :/ Thanks for sharing. Do you have any updated photos since the repair?

    I hope mind turns out well. It's been 2 months so far. A little concerned about density but I guess I need to wait at least another 6 months.

    you mean repair I had from Asmed?

    Slightly off topic, I notice the area behind the front hairline to be problematic for a lot of people.
     

    A big reason is the frontal area tends to be packed denser but there’s obviously more to it as it’s not always the case.

    !00%, and you'll only realise this after your first procedure. A good surgeon will raise this with you at the first meeting. I had to get that addressed with Asmed later on. He has a reputation of over estimating but in hindsight id rather have my grafts over estimated than under estimated.

    His website states:

    "Once you qualify for the 3G FUE procedure, and we agree on expectations, there is no doubt that you would be pleased with the result. On that note, yes I do offer a safety net for my procedures."

    Have you reverted back to him, and said that you are not happy?

     

    Yeah, I did actually...I had another "topping up" session where he added a further 200 new hairs. Made no difference at all. Another thing is that he refused to bulk up the areas directly behind the hairline either, and flat out refused to do the temple regions which I really needed. Finally, after obsessing with my hair for a further year I had enough and went to Asmed in Istanbul. The results he gave were more to my expectations. Ive added The Reddy pics below so you can see what issues I was having.

    Bloody hell, what happened?

    Used too little number of grafts so that the transplanted region looked very "see through", charged me "per hair" rather than per graft, and gave me a hairline I was thoroughly dissatisfied with. Was really really unhappy.

    Happy for OP but he was lucky. Koray is not even top 10 in Turkey, all hair mills have good results, even Cosmedica, Cinik and Hair of Istanbul get good results simply because they perform so many surgeries, but they botch an equal or larger number of patients.

    There are far safer options than ASMED at similar price points even in Turkey, do your research people, a failed HT can seriously ruin your life

    Are you talking for experience? Stop hating on him as you come across as toxic. He has consistently given excellent results over the years. Sure there are outliers (name a surgeon who hasn't) however on the whole i still don't see anyone beating him.

    We go to Turkey man :D 

    This way, three procedures end up costing as much as one US or elite-EU :D

    But in all seriousness, each of us, within their budget, find ways to make this work. Maybe you save your bonuses from work for a couple of years -if you've got a job that pays out bonuses. If you really want it, you find a way to make it happen. Keep in mind that multiple procedures usually also occur within the span of a decade, so money accumulates.

    Finally, yes, it's a grade-A personal luxury expense. If you are worrying about bills, you are not yet in full on mid-life crisis territory like the majority of the site :D

    This is actually a very valid point. If it wasn't for Turkey and the exchange rate, a lot of is would be screwed. Love to Turkey!

     

  9. Ive just had my third transplant now with Asmed to shore up my hairline which was thinning. I stopped taking med right after my transplant and over time the hair just starts to thin. This time ill keep using Finistride but at a low dosage. Unfortunately the myth behind "transplanted hair is hair that lasts forever" is just that, a myth. Even with transplanted hair it comes with a ticking clock. Its just life I guess. Good luck
