  1. Hey Bill, Thank you, I am happy with the result. I would say that the doc was not as involved in the procedure as much as I would have like. His techs did most of the work, both in the extraction and the implantation. He did the hairline and the techs did the filling.
  2. Wow. Looks like stuff is really starting to hit the fan. I'm just counting myself as one of the lucky ones who got out with a good result.
  3. Thanks Spanker. Yeh won the lottery in that regard.
  4. Very happy JustJax. You can see I reached very good growth by about 7 months, then its just thickened up little by little since then.
  5. Hi all, Been meaning to do this for a while. We've all read plenty of long reviews so I'll try and keep this short. Basic facts. Age: 26.5 years Started losing hair at: 17 years (same as Dad) Finasteride: From 19 years. Minoxidil: From 25.5 years. Hair transplant at: 25.5 years Hair type: Coarse, thick, dark brown, curly hair (half Greek, half Irish ancestry) From Australia. My hair loss wasn't too noticeable to others due to my hair type. But I've been wanting to fix my hairline ever since I started losing my hair. Transplant. Dr Hakan Doganay FUE April 15, 2015 Grafts: 2100? Forgot the break down, will update when I hear from the doc. Single: Double: Triple: Total Hairs: I was happy with the procedure. Seemed very professional. Muslum was a great translator. The nurses were all very good. Loved Turkey. Ended up staying for a month and then travelling Europe for another 7 months. I should say I found the act of shaving my head quite liberating. You can tell from before photos that I grew my hair longer to cover the loss. Always very sensitive about it, I had a sizeable forehead and the hair loss accentuated this. Living with noticeable hair loss through the regrowth phase really showed me people don't care. Women don't care. Yes its nice to have a great head of hair, but it really starts with your own confidence, self esteem and self belief. Hit me with any questions. Anybody in Brisbane, happy to meet if you want to see it in person. Photos at the following link in my album: Hair Restoration Social Network - Hair Loss and Transplant Photos I've 18 photos, pre and post out to 12 months. Happy to put more up if people are interested. Happy to answer any questions or comments!
