  1. Hello All, This is my 2nd thread, the first was of my cousins experience with Hacer YUCE last year, his results were exceptional so i chose her as my "Dr" I am located in the wonderful state of Michigan and have researched for a while now for a economical yet quality high graft FUE clinic/Dr. My conclusion was simply that this was not possible in the states. #1 Honesty - first issue i came across: Most Dr's I encountered are LIARS! They claimed that having a mega session of 3000+ grafts that people talk of in other countires is a bunch of BS, and that is actually the amount of hairs you are getting, not grafts. #2 Pricing! - Not only did they want to sell me a dream that 2000 grafts was more than enough, but they wanted to do it at $5-10 dollars per graft #3 Natural - I always new i would probably keep my hair line as the receding wasn't bad and i preffered density, but i still wanted advise from a expeierced FUE Dr Or Tech who could advise me in the right direction. I know many people in the Arabic community who have traveled to Istanbul to have a HT done so I had options and many before and after photos that are not seen in the forums so this helped with my decision. When researching I learned that it is not uncommon for the Dr to only do part of the procedure and trained technicians to do the dirty work, i was okay with this as long as i had multiple before and after photos of a particular clinic showing quality work. Ultimately I decided on Anitomica Clinic in Istanbul based on her work that my cousin recieved as well as 4 others that went with him last year Feb. My Trip: I left for Turkey with two friends on March 7th and left time to explore the beautiful city of Istanbul. There is so much to do that I wont go into detail but a few things we did was EAT, visit Ayasofa Museum, Grand Bazzar, Spice Bazzar, explore Taxim Square, hang out at the Bosphorus Sea, and eat some more. Surgery was scheduled for Friday the 11th for myself and other two friends that came with, they have enough techs for 3 HT in one day. Upon our arrival we had went over our final game plan, got an estimated graft count, and paid $2000 USD which included PRP and how ever many grafts we were quoted. Its 1 price for all. Short Process (start time 8:45AM) Blood Taken Head is shaved Hair line is drawn by Hacer ) Numbing of Donor area (slightly painful, similar to wisdom tooth numbing shots) Extraction Begins (takes roughly 1-2 hours for 3900 Grafts) (done by techs not Hacer) Lunch (around noon) Holes made for transplanting by Hacer (1 Hour maybe i don't remember exactly) Planting of Grafts (finished by 6:30PM) (Hacer helping) For the most of the procedure there were 2 techs working on me, when extracting, 1 was punching the graft while the other plucked them away. Holes were exlusively made my Hacer Planting of grafts, at one point 4 woman were working on me, Hacer and 3 techs Everything went smoothly, Hacer has a conservative approach which mimics my own so I appreciated and accepted all of her suggestions. Shes beautiful as well so its hard to say know when she says anything. The entire Clinic speaks Turkish, but we had our own translator with us, and she also had one available for any questions. Contact: Erdogan Safak 011 90 533 211 4311 Erdogan did the booking for my crew and was our translator and driver while in Turkey, his rates are reasonable and hes a hell of a guy! If you want to bypass him google Anatomica # as i never called.

  2. Hello everyone, Sorry about the delayed update but I am very happy with the results. Would definitely reccomend Hacer Yuce to anyone interested in FUE. Before After
  3. Hi everyone, 5 Days ago I had an FUE transplant in Turkey by Hacer YUCE at the Anatomica clinic. I choose this clinic because a i was referred by a relative who had great results. Total price paid was $2000 USD for 4800 grafts. So far only complaint is itching on the donor area, what do you recommend to relieve this? Let me know what you think of the results so far. I would appreciate any critiques you have, and would like your input. Pre transplant Post transplant immediately after 5 Days later (Today, day of post) Pre/Post op
