i had my 5000 grafts surgery with Dr. Erdogan on 18/1 and 19/1. Similar to your design. For me the surgery pain was not an issue. The waiting game of 12 months is bit too much after spending all that money and hassle of travelling from Australia to Europe

i had mine done at ASMED on 18/1 and 19/1 5000 grafts in total. i bought Ph5.5 shampoo from Turkey and plaining to use it after i finish with ASMED shampoo

Hello Forum Members; Normally i do not post online however this forum has helped me great deal to understand hair transplant and different techniques existed . I will make it short because i know many of you have read so many blogs and forums just like me before the surgery. Straight to the point, it took me more than 3 years to decide on performing FUE and choosing the right Dr. I had few options available but in the end i went with Dr. Koray Erdogan just because he has some good results . Dr. Koray Erdogan quoted me 5500 grafts in online consultation. I was happy with it because i am NW5 and i was greedy for more grafts I will not go through the experience of going to Turkey from Australia and how good is ASMED clinin and his staff. You can find plenty of information about it. But just one line. The clinic is state of the art and his staff is really professional. My Interpreter was Esen and she was really helpful. Initial Consultation on 17/1/2018 i had my initial face to face consultation with Dr. Erdogan and we discussed my hair loss condition and realistic restoration plan. I wasn't happy with the frontal line he draw but when he explained to me the limited number of donor grafts and to achieve better density it was necessary to go with natural looking hairline for my age rather than unrealistic see through hairline . The plan was ready for next day. I met few other guys at the clinic who were scheduled for same day surgery. So it was good fun at hotel. Surgery Day 18/01/2018 First 2500 grafts were extracted and implemented on day 1 in the frontal area. There is little discomfort but at the end of the day it is cosmatic surgery and it is not really painful. Surgery Day 19/01/2018 The remaining 2512 grafts were extracted and implanted in vertex and Crown area. First Wash 20/01/2018 The clinic performed the wash and provided me the video instructions ,shampoo and other documents on what to avoid for next 6 months. I flew out on same day and the driver dropped me to the airport. There is itchiness here and there but overall i am doing really well. For me the pain of surgery was not an issue but i was more worried about post surgery care . I am paranoid about accidently hitting my head and destroying the grafts. Although i did bump my head on couple of occassions but the clinic responded really well and restored my grafts ( 2 of them). Other than that i am taking care of grafts well so far. Today is the 5th day of my second surgery and i am back home after long flight ( Istanbul to Melbourne). Now is the waiting game

very impressive results. you will be a different person in 2018. I have surgery booked with Dr. Koray Erdogan for mid January. 5500 grafts. Excited and nervous at the same time. Nervous about the long journey of care and recovery. Did u wear cap post surgery? I want to wear cap for first few days but i am not sure how safe and recommended practice is that for recovery.

wow you are doing well. you will have great results in next few months. do you use minoxil ? as i said mine is booked for 5k grafts with Dr. Erdogan. anything advise on pre op preparations? I have started taking Finasteride.

Hey any updates? i have booked with Dr. Erdogan in January. i am excited about it.

hey mate how u going with ur recovery? i am thinking to choose Dr. Yaman or Erdogan. r u happy with results?

Dear Community Members The time has arrived for me to do FUE in January 2018. However i am sure everyone would have gone through this vicious thought process of selecting the right surgeon. I have been looking online for reviews about results of different Doctors in Turkey. It is hard to differentiate between legitimate or marketing reviews. Couple of doctors i narrowed it down. 1- Koray Erdogan --> There seems to be overwhelming good reviews about his work. 2 - Resul Yaman --> There are mix reviews about his work but some of videos on youtube are impressive The cost difference is massive between these two Doctors. I dont mind paying extra to Dr. Koray Erdogan but my question is if i m getting same results with Dr. Resul Yaman, why should i pay more? Anyone on this forum had recent surgery with either of these doctors and would like to comment on quality of work? Please suggest any other doctor if i am wrong. For me density is the most important and i am hoping i will be going for atleast 4000 graft session. Thanks

Hi Mate i was wondering how are you going with your recovery? I have decided to do FUE early next year but i am confused with below two doctors. Dr. Erdogan Dr. Resul Yaman. Erdogan has no doubt the best reviews but Resul Yaman is not bad as well. The price difference is huge. I tilted more towards Dr Erdogan but if the outcome will be same why should i pay twice as much as Resul Yaman. Erdogan = 2.5 euro per graft. Yaman = 1 euro per graft. Can you please upload any updates? Thanks

Hello Dr. Resul Yaman I have been trying to reach you . I am considering to do FUE , however i have some questions and queries that i need to discuss with you. I have sent you an email but i have not received any response yet. Can you please advise me what would be the best way to communicate with you? Thank you Regards ozdownunder
