Has anyone ever been turned DOWN by Dr. Erdogan?
Sultsay replied to ready4Hair's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
you are right photos can not provide an accurate picture of what the real density is. In my case I had a face to face consultation with a coalition doc of this web site and was very disappointed when he said my donor density at the back of head was around 40. this was after 3000 FUE. Then had another consultation with DR B of BHR, he used his hand held magnifier and said my density was 85. Clearly a big discrepancy. At last decided to have a combination of FUE and FUT by DR B at BHR clinic and please with my result. -
Body Hair Transplant Question ?
Sultsay replied to jooeey's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Has anybody used back hair for transplant? I have plenty on my back which is straighter than my chest hair. I will need to increase density at the crown and mid scalp if donor area allows. -
Has anyone ever been turned DOWN by Dr. Erdogan?
Sultsay replied to ready4Hair's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
It would be nice to see your pictures to make an accurate judgment, I have made comments about this doctor's cases before. He seems to accept the ones with low Norwood grades and not high ones. In additions, he is using lots more hair follicles for a given area than compared with other renowned HT docs. He refused my case due to my high Norwood, but I was determined to have HT and you can clearly see that I was a candidate for HT. I would advise you to contact some other HT docs, depending on your age and degree of hair loss, his recommendation about finasteride may be the only reasonable advise he has given you. best of luck -
Growth post 6 to 7 months is not always the case. Obviously maturing of the hair will continue. In my case following my second HT of 6700 with BHR, honestly I have not seen any major change after six months post HT.

Norwood 7 - transplant suitability
Sultsay replied to cj1234's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
You will need anything in the range of 10 to 12k to cover the bald area. This can be achieved if your donor has good density and you have good beard and chest hair. I was NW7 and so far had 3 HTs. In my opinion you need to consider FUT first followed by FUEs. You will certainly need at least 4 HTs to provide you with some result. I had 7k scalp hair, 2700 beard and 2500 chest hair and still quite thin on the crown. Still have another 1 to 1500 from scalp and can have 1k from beard and chest to increase the density on the crown. Discuss your case with BHR and opt for a combination of FUT and FUE plus body hair pending your budget. Eugenix is another option but they do not perform FUT. Good luck- 19 replies

Hi greyG I had my first HT in Turkey, second one with BHR in Brussels and the third one in Georgia. Good luck with your HT

Very nice write up David, we are all eager to see the latest up dates on your progress. I will also need one or two more FUEs to increase the density in my scalp using body and scalp hair. Can you clarify if Dr Ball uses motorised or non motorised device for hair extraction? Does he transplant body hair( chest/back hair) to scalp? Many thanks

I have had HT including body HT with good results and not taking Finasteride. This drug is proven to stop hair loss and in some cases helped men regrow the lost hair. Fenasteride immediately Post HT to increase the success rate is unheard of, what are really important in terms of graft survival and success rate: surgeon skills in addition to his/her technician abilities time grafts left out of the body. looking after those implanted grafts to ensure they are not dislodged for the first 7-10 days. Surely others may have some more to add to this list

ASMED 5000 FUE mousey blonde fine hair June 18/19 2017
Sultsay replied to bloodshoteyes's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
I am surprised this guy has accepted to do your HT. He usually sticks to lower Norwood and uses a lot of hair than anyone else for a given area. When I contacted this clinic for HT, got refused and advised to consider tattooing my scalp, silly man with unprofessional advise. Wish you good result. -
Dr Lupanzula - any reservations or concerns?
Sultsay replied to palma13's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
I had my second procedure done by Dr Bisanga, he knows what he is doing and his confidence level is pretty good. I was refused FUT by two other docs recommended on this site but Dr B did it and my scar is pretty good. The only issue with him is that he tends to complete all his work and then leaves the technicians to carry out the extraction and implantation. This leads to the work taking a long time and more importantly graft time out of the body being longer. The issue that made me really disappointed with BHR clinic was that while paying the deposit, my bank managed to pay two lots of deposit which I did not realise until one month post procedure. However, at the end of my procedure they asked me to pay the outstanding balance without mentioning that they received twice the amount of deposit. It took me a while to take my money back and not even received the full amount. BHR let me down by not following my case up, currently 10months post procedure and had no follow up appointment with them. Just to be careful when paying the deposit, they are friendly and good prior to procedure, however post HT it is hard to get any reply from them. -
Anyone have a HT with Talizi Clinic in Gerogia?
Sultsay replied to johnwest's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
hi I had 3000 FUE to crown using beard and body hair, did it only last month and two soon to give any feedback on the result. As you mentioned, each clinic seems to claim that they are the best. However it is the final result which matters the most. -
Thanks dr, very useful. With regards to body hair and DHT, I thought body hair not only was resistant to DHT but in fact they are dependent on DHT. This is clearly demonstrated by the fact that body hair and other secondary sexual characteristics develop when we reach adulthood, these are promoted by DHT. In addition, the reality that body hair growth is adversely affected after initiation of finasteride and this process reverses on discontinuation of mentioned drug proves it. We have had feedback from different members here about the effects of Finasteride on BHT, this again does not seem to be universal for everyone using it. Would be keen to know your thoughts
-
Hi Harin When did you start Finasteride post HT? Have you noticed any benefit from being on it? I also had BHT to scalp, therefore am a bit cautious, though thinking of giving it a go to see if it improves the hair growth.
-
Dear Harin Did you say you are on Fenasteride 1mg daily and if yes, has it affected your BHT? Thanks for your feedback
-
Just a question for those who had their HT done with Dr Lupanzula in Brussels. Have you been asked to pay 80% of the total price one month before your HT? This is what I have asked to pay. Your experience on this issue would be very helpful. Thanks

Hi guys I am currently 4.5 months post my second HT and been using Regain. I am not really sure if it is doing any good to transplanted hair as transplanted hair is taken from areas resistant to DHT. Every time after using regain, I seem to lose 2 to 3 transplanted hairs and they seem to be in various stages of growth. I am a bit concerned and thinking of stopping using it. Any thoughts or recommendation from the forum is appreciated Thanks

Testosterone (trt) after hair transplant
Sultsay replied to string11's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
It appears that you are on testosterone due to failure of internal glands producing this hormone. If your daily dose of tst does not exceed the physiologically required amount of this hormone, then it should be ok. To protect your native hair susceptible to DHT, you will benefit from using anti DHT products. -
2500 grafts done by DR RESUL YAMAN
Sultsay replied to hairtransplant33's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
50 to 55 grafts per square cm would of reasonable density. There are claims of more density achieved by certain clinics, however trying to do this might impair the microcirculation of the recipient area and result in failure or poor growth. To get higher density of 60 to 70 per sqcm, you may want to have a second touch. The reason for gaps in between your grafts is the presence of swelling. Once this subsides, you will see less gaps. -
FUE @ Darling Buds Chandigargh, India
Sultsay replied to Martian31's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Every transplant doctor/surgeon sounds good and professional when speaking to them. Their web sties look even better. The reality is that only successful cases are put on their web sites, and even this forum recommends docs based on their good results cos. they are not aware of the failed cases. In my opinion, the reason for the failed transplant would be a combination of doctor and to a lesser degree patient fault. Docs who damage the hair follicle when extracting or leaving it too long out of the body basically kill the grafts, and therefore no growth. This is made worse by the fact that a good chunk of donor is destroyed. I would say if by day 10-14 all scabs off and the transplanted hair are all where they need to be, then the patient is not to blame. Regarding accurate number of grafts extracted and transplanted would be difficult to be sure, we just need to accept what we have been told. The only center with a puncher machine that counts the number of holes made in recipient area is in Georgia Dr Akaki, however they are not recommended on this forum.- 17 replies
