Ive had no luck getting back into contact with Asmed they seem to ignore my emails. Very unprofessional. Jonyny i would be disappointed! frontal is very spacey. A recommended dr like Erdogan should be able to spot this. It's totally unacceptable he claims its ok

He has botched my hairline. I couldn't make it any more clearer.I try to tell myself its fine as i have to live with it on a daily basis but its not fine. I paid a lot of money to have it done surely i should of received a professional job. My hairline is ruined unless i get some sort of repair which will cost me more money.

I would say it's passible if you are 100% happy. I find most of Erdogan's hairlines are lacking the fundamentals of a natural hair transplant. I am now 2 years post op and I have this red border on my hairline still. My frontal area has no softness to it. Hair grafts are uniformly placed with 2's and 3's with not many 1's, its spacey and has a weird un natural shape making forehead more receded than it already was. I'm am still confused on how he charges for double the amount of grafts compared to other surgeons and still his hairlines lack density? Is this because grafts get stressed with these 3000 to 5000 day sessions? the techs who are pulling these grafts out and placing? Or the tools being used? I have sent email to ask for a full refund waiting for a response on the basis of un naturalness and shape of hairline. I have already been offered a free touch up (what ever that means) which means flying to Turkey again. At this present time I think that is too risky knowing what damage he has already done. It's like living with a bad hair cut. Frustrating.

From a distance your transplant has been a success. You now have hair. Would like to see up close picture of how the hairline actually looks and how hair falls? If you are happy with it thats the most important thing not anyway else's opinion. I am just not happy with his work and i know a few others who are not happy either :mad:

30 year old with a few grey hairs. Erdogan advised me 3000 fue grafts was needed to restore hairline. I explained to him I wanted a natural hairline. This is the end result.

before and after (2 yrs post op) pictures

If he was producing i would have nothing to say. Patients are walking out of his clinic looking worse off thats all i'm saying. That is being honest!!!!

Posting results from 2-3 years ago does not help his case. Erdogan or his techs have clearly lost their touch. This forum should be more honest and not recommend surgeons if they are no longer producing solid results. It is costing people time and money.

He should not be recommended on this site if he is producing poor hairlines on patients. Good yield or not. Patients do not need the amount of grafts he charges for. It is not value for money !!!!

I have to say this is very true

UPDATE - Sorry about the lack of activity from my side. Since i wrote my last post 6 months ago (16 months post op) i thought that was my final result. Since then i can honestly say texture of hair has got a lot better. I have stopped using Alpecin shampoo as i think that was one of the main reasons i was disliking my new hair due to it making hair look different colour. Before my transplant i never used!!! I stopped taking fin at 1 year then resumed it for 1 month at 15 months. Both occasions I had many side of effects. Stopped taking since i do see odd hair in sink and shower in morning. Overall I would say i am alot happier with my hair transplant from dr erdogan!!!! Rating 7/10 (with a little touch up to hairline would improve rating to a solid 10) Touch up would let me expose hairline. Before my hair transplant i had never had any surgery done before, i was un prepared for the journey. It's not a easy journey so many ups and downs, months disliking hair the way it looks. If you thinking about getting a hair transplant be prepared of the rocky journey and dont expect a full result till 2 years like doctor recommends even if hair has grown. hair grafts changed alot over the months!!!! Also it took me a while to style hair differently.

Hi, am i right to request a refund if i am not satisfied with result?

Thinking about possibly getting repair work to my new hairline how many grafts would it take to make hairline more natural? at the moment as soon as i expose hairline where it is so dense at 70cm2 it looks as if im wearing something on my head. looking to get rid of the uniform hairline and have more naturalness to it, only concerns are when i had hairline lowered i think its now 6.5cm above eyes would this be a problem? recommendations best doctor for repair work with natural finish?

it defiantly looks like im wearing a hair piece which has receeded. just not happy!!! still awaiting response from asmed. i have uploaded a few more pictures

I was only norwood 2.

The whole idea for me getting a hair transplant was to have nice hairline to frame my face and correct the receding temples. It took 2 years of researching a doctor to finally choose Dr Erdogan - I choose him based on previous work and was happy he could do the job. I just feel the hair transplant i have received is not to the standard i thought it would be, it is to the fact that hair has grown and i have hair on my head, but the actual design of my new hairline and temples to frame face and how it stands up in harsh light is not quite as good Hair transplants are meant to be undetectable if done correctly. It may just need a touch up to correct problems so awaiting Asmed response with a date for live consultation.

more pictures of hair transplant

Had it done with Asmed in turkey. 16 months on i can still see original hairline where new hair is not the same characteristics as original which looks a bit odd.

i had a 3000grafts fue hair transplant done 16 months ago in Turkey. I was told when i had it done i was a suitable candidate because i had really thick hair and lots of donor supply. i was happy to get it done on these terms and because i was receding. when i turnt up in turkey i was warmly welcomed when i turnt up at the clinic, i then sat down with doctor and he showed me hair line examples of past patients that would fit my face. all past ops looked really good and natural. i explained to him what i wanted a natural hairline that didn't show i was receding. he drew me a hairline which he explained was best for my face. not knowing to much on shapes of hairlines apart from just wanted to fill my receding areas up i went along with this. before i went into surgery the next morning, i asked my english translator if my hairline looked alright and assured me it was all good as i doubts on the way it looked i went along with it - i had the surgery. after 2 months post op i noticed my left temple area was far back to my right side so i contacted the clinic to ask why. they said i needed to wait till the 8 month mark to see if it it grows out. i waited to the 8 month mark no change. doubting each month on the way the hairline and temples looked. hair started to fill my frontal and temples slowly after that. after the hair filled and started to become dense. i was in my bathroom one evening as i had the light on i looked in the mirror and i could see the light shining down on to my scalp through the new hair transplants hair which looked really thin and wiry which i could count individual hairs when having hair slicked back also i could see a round redish circle when the new hairs were transplanted. i contacted the clinic and sent photos, they assured me everything is ok with hair transplant and that i have nothing to worry about also i should wait till 15 months mark for hair to mature. 15 month mark came i looked in the mirror my hairline still looked un-natural and too straight oddly wonky making head look square, my left sided temple is further back to my right side, temples both look oddly designed looking un-neutral, hair cant cope against harsh light when its not flat, i can see a round circle on forehead. hair is unmanageable to style as new hair looks way different to original - just not happy. i have contacted clinic at the 16 month which took time to finally get hold off as all numbers were not getting connected , finally managed to get through to english translator through whatsapp to ask if they had seen my email at 16 month mark and what they think, they assured me everything is ok and that my hair transplant was one of the good results coming from the clinic. i feel upset at this current stage as i have had to go through 16 months looking like ive had a serious illness to then see my results which im not too happy with. pictures don't show the true reflection of my points as i recently found out pictures do hair transplants justice in terms of looking more natural. i just feel spending ?7k on a hair transplant with a recommended clinic with one of the best doctors from this site i should at least be able to pleased with my new hairline and slick my hair back, instead due to the new transplant hair with look un-natural and thin i am unable to style how i want it. am i expecting too much?
