LonelyGraft

Look. I’m not telling anyone to not post or not say anything specific. I just told him about my own experience. There was a clinic on here that posted before and after pics with totally different lighting and backgrounds. I kept commenting that they needed to change it and it looked bad. Then I was issued warning points and banned after the clinic reported me.

I’ve wondered the same. I imagine if you need say 500 grafts or so, they would do it. Maybe fit in another patient before/after you to make it an entire day of surgery. You’ll likely pay a premium for those limited grafts however. They still need to setup and whatnot and make it worth their time. maybe there’s a minimum required for fut however. I assume you’re going for fue

You have a good point. If something goes wrong or results aren’t up to par, it’s not really one of the six doctors name that gets tarnished, instead it’s the clinic. however, personally, if I were set on turkey and were a nw3 or higher, hlc would likely be my main choice for a few reasons: - everything is in house. They literally do it all and use the top techniques as you mentioned. They also do smp, bht, scar repair etc etc. the facility has rooms for the patients and even food. You literally don’t have to leave if you don’t want to as you have everything there. The facilities are extremely modern - they host conferences and training which means they actually care about the industry. They attend European conferences to continuously learn and perfect their craft -their price is outstanding when compared to North America - they do repair work. In my opinion any clinic that does repair work will be inherently honest. Many clinics will not touch repair patients as they don’t have the skill or don’t want to do deal with anything that may go wrong including sub par results.

What is HIRSH? I’ve never heard of it

From the videos I’ve seen the entire team gets together in the pre op to design the patients hair and give input with the lead doc (I believe ozgur) spearheading it. Seems pretty cool

Wow that shaved 10-15 years off this guys look. why the post op so bloody however? Did this patient have popping?

The scar looks crazy good.

Looks awesome. I remember this thread. I think you were one of the newest patient posted results from when h&w first started doing fue

Great result. Do you dye your hair? Seems darker in the afters. Any exposed hairline pics?

Great videos and wonderful editing. Please keep up the good work

Doesn’t diep create the incisions? Techs just implant grafts into them

Another hasson vs Rahal thread? Weird... anyway, a poster here recently consulted with rahal and at the beginning of this year they no longer perform fut. so this should make your decision quite easy if you’re set on fut.

That’s still less than $2 a graft. I think that’s a great price for the quality of work they’re doing

Doubled the price? Oof, looks like they have to make up that $ from somewhere with all the marketing and associations they are now part of (hrn, iahrs, Joe Tillman, etc)

Good on you for walking out. Don’t stand for bs like that

Isn’t he the most popular doc in Portugal? I haven’t seen any results posted on this forum. The Spanish forums probably have his work showcased.

What is your YouTube channel?

Do you have any pictures of your hair currently?

Supplements are not required. Nor will they help retain your native hair (proof for saw palmetto is scarce at best). However, taking supplements to help your existing hair grow faster or healthier/shinier is sometimes recommended but not required especially if your diet is good. If the clinic is selling those supplements for expensive you can likely buy them online for way cheaper

I can’t say I’ve ever seen discoloration in the recipient but that doesn’t mean it’s not possible. The donor will obviously have scarring whatever method, fue/fut is used. The color and severity of the donor scarring has a lot to do with your own healing characteristics. I’d follow up with a well known doctor regarding your question if you’re super concerned though.

It looks like it’s coming back. It’s a slow process so try to remain as patient as you can. I know it sucks. Maybe add some supplements to speed up growth? Things like biotin msm silica etc

Wow! Great result

I def think joe Tillman is one of the good/better guys in this industry. Spencer....not so much. I’ve read posts from way back in the days before forums even existed and there were newsgroups (one was called alt.baldspot which google has historically saved) and Spencer started there. He was a looney guy even in those days. Really weird and all about $. joes knowledge about transplants trumps all the YouTube guys out there and he even knows more than Spencer (who is the president of the iahrs lol). But at the end of the day these guys are sitting in their nice ass homes in Vancouver and LA driving luxury cars. They didn’t get it from strictly being patient advocates. Yes, they have some great doctors on their lists. But I’d hate for newbies coming onto here thinking the iahrs or recommendation from joe Tillman cannot do them wrong. Lots of better options out there. Patient education is key and that’s where forums like this fill in that gap

What is your age? Work looks very detailed
