Every clinic in that region follows the same procedure. The doctors are not hands on the whole procedure. I also had consultations with two other clinics prior to my surgery and both clinics told me that the doctor will supervised the extraction and will implant the front line himself. There is no way that one person can do all the extractions and implantation's himself. It's just impossible. I believe Paleo here is determined in his vendetta against the doctor and doing his best burying him but believe me, the state of mind this guy is in, It would have been any other doctor he would have gone to. Sadly Dr Hakan was the one to take the case and now pay the price. This has turned into a shit show and the whole thread has turned into Paleo's " detective work " in attacking the doctor, which has nothing to do with his medical personal case. By the way Paleo, what happened to your redness that you have 15 pages complaining about ?? Is it gone now just like everyone else told you to ??

Thank you for pointing me to that thread in crystal clear english but since that thread makes it obvious that Paleo saw all these red flags about the doctor and since the doctor was very poor on evaluating him, why did he go through on having the procedure with this particular doctor ?? If you look at the recommendation list of the doctors above, Doctor Hakan is not the only one. There is plenty of other doctors. Right ??

Ok "dude" I know it is a serious "stuff" since I went through it myself. But since it is a serious "stuff" don't you think it should have been researched prior to going for the surgery and not after ??

I am one of the patients that saw Dr Hakan in April 30 of this year and let me tell you, if I had to do it all over again, I will go right back to him. This thread is beating a dead horse over and over again. Paleo here had a bad experience and is unhappy with the results. So he came here with his concerns. That is what the forum is for but when you go on reading the 27 pages of his thread, and him playing detective thread after thread, I don't think he would have been happy with any doctor. Unfortunately Dr Hakan was the one to pay the price for the OP's unstable mental state at the time and the present. I think the OP rushed into getting the HT since he was panicking and that happens to all of us but then to come back and say that it was the doctors fault for getting his surgery, that's just not fair. Doctor was paid to do the HT and that's what he did. This again, it may not be what Paleo likes to hear but I believe that this is the truth.

I agree. This is a joke now where we have Mr Sherlock Holmes investigating the youtube videos and pics. Paleo, Let me ask you a simple question. From reading your thread, this doctor seems to be horrible and don't have any happy patients. What made you go with him ??

Paleo, You came in here blaming the doctor for not telling you that you did not need an HT since your family history and on how you had not done enough research. But you failed to mention that you already had gone in two different clinics for consultation and a third one with Dr Hakan. If you were unhappy with the prior visit since supposedly the representative was the only one to talk to you, why did you go back to Dr Hakan ?? Answer that. Not to mention, that from what I have been reading on these 27 pages so far, it seems to me that you are not the kind of person that does not do any research. In fact with your time in hands and the mind set you seem to have, you are quiet the opposite. So stop with that bullshit blaming others for your own decision. You also said that the doctor would not operate on you and he demanded the money first. That is also bullshit since them people NEVER ASKED ME ONCE FOR THE MONEY !! All I had to show was a copy of my purchased ticket. Which I emailed to them and that's how my date was booked. Now you are saying that you are lacking results ?? Since you are very good at searching, why don't you search on how long it does take to achieve full results ?? Or ask in here ??How do you know that in only 5 months time you do not have the desired results ?? Like I said before you need to take some time off instead of sitting in front of the computer and obsessing. At the end of the day, I do blame the doctor for taking your case. If he didn't, you would have been another doctor's headache right now !! Bill, If you need my info please PM me and I am more than happy to provide it to you.

I did in your other thread. I actually put pics holding a note with the days date and my forum name. Go check it out

Yes you did call me a liar and a fake. I came in here after reading about your experience and tried to help you as much as I could since I have been through it and know how it feels. But you are out for revenge and not thinking straight. Not everyone is your enemy. Like I told you on my first post, take a break and clear your head. You need it. Take a hobby and keep busy till at least 8-9 months have gone by and then you come back and state your case since clearly right now your credibility is being questioned. By sitting at the computer and analyzing every thread, you will loose your mind worse than you already have. I personally never said that I was happy or unhappy with the results. But I know better than to come here after 6 months of surgery and bash a doctor. I call the moderators to not let this go any further and reopen it at the year mark since the OP is very disturbed at the moment and it's not fair to continue bashing the doctor till the end results are achieved. Any questions, you are more than welcome to pm me.

Yes moron is the time change we had last night in US. How about the other pics I took for you with a note stating the date and the forum name ?? With the same shirt as yesterday ?? You clearly have mental issues my friend. You do not need HT you need a Psychologist. I do blame the doctor for doing the surgery on someone not stable as yourself. Feel free to challenge me if you want on my lying.

Paleo, You are not thinking clearly my friend. Now you are accusing me for putting pictures up from a different date and being paid by the clinic to post here. That's not cool. Yes I took those pics yesterday for you so you did not think it was suspicious. I am sorry that my photography skills are not that great but they are taken with a Blackberry Z10 and not a professional camera. The first 2 pictures show clearly that the pics I took yesterday were in fact taken yesterday but to please you even more, I took two more pics today with a note to prove that they were taken today. Hope that pleases your doubting personality. As far as my My " English" writing skills go, they are just that, since I live in US and can't be any other way. By the way check this post out. It's my HT experience at the time that was done. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/179507-dr-hakan-doganay-fue-2230-grafts.html Is that fake as well ??? I am sorry for not having more posts but after all, I do have a life and do not sit home all day in front of the computer. I do expect an apology from you for calling me a liar.

Here is few pics I just took for you....I just turned 6 months yesterday so I am not expecting full growth yet. I am being patient and waiting for the 12 month mark. I was told by doc Doganay to jump on the propecia/finasteride right after the surgery and was actually provided with some at the hospital. I have also been doing minoxidil once a day. Right before I go to sleep at night time. As far as thousands patients, trust me, there are. He does two people a day and for as long as he's been doing it, you do the math I stand by my statement as there is no guarantees on any HT. Everyone here will tell you that. There is so many factors that are involved. One of the most important factors is the individual itself. There is not two people that are the same as far as hair, skin type goes and etc...If you do a search I am sure there will be plenty of info on the all different factors that are involved. As far as the second chance goes, I do agree with you but I also know that there is plenty of clinics out there that will not give you the time of the day once you have completed the surgery. From what I read, the doctor above will perform the surgery again and it's been times where a full refund has been given. In my book that is excellent customer service.

Paleo, I understand where you coming from and I am sure that majority of us on this forum have been to where you are now, at some point in their journey. I am also a patient of Dr Doganay and personally have nothing but great things to say about him. Even though it's only been exactly 6 months from my surgery ( April 30th ) and can not really comment on the results yet, I do believe that he deserves a second chance. We only hear of those 15 - 20 bad experiences but let's not forget the other thousands of good ones. At the end of the day there is no guarantees on any HT's and we all know that but what really counts is that this doctor has offered to make good on every single complaint and to me that speaks volume care after the fact service. If I was you, I would just try to keep busy meantime and wait it out since it is still early. Once the year mark comes then you reevaluate your results and take it from there. I would also recommend you jump on some Finasteride just like everyone here says. It will help with what you have. Of course this is only my opinion and believe me I do not work for the doctor

I agree with Bill !! I am also a patient of Dr Doganay and have nothing but great things to say about him. Even though it's only been exactly 6 months from my surgery and I can not really comment on the results yet, I do believe that he deserves a second chance. We only hear of those 15 - 20 bad experiences but let's not forget the other thousands of good ones.

Thanks I am hoping so as well

Since tomorrow will be exactly one month from my surgery I wanted to post some pics of my progress.
