IMO, Your right side definitely needs to be leveled out to get close to the lefts appearance and zig-zag plugginess needs to be slightly peppered with single-hair grafts, and maybe instead of lowering your full hairline as drawn you just opt for more of a widows peak. Dr Diep and Dr Gabel should also be considered.

Hey man, Took a look at your 1st procedure link, are you saying you’ve lost and thinned out some of the transplanted hairs in your frontal 3rd that you had 6-years ago?...or do you believe it’s your native hairs that you lost? A current photo(s) would be helpful thanks.

I agree with Legend, definitely better than where you were pre-op, density is lacking mainly directly in front and temples but you got good coverage for the amount of grafts, mid section looks nicely covered, an additional 1,000-1,500 directly in front to fill in the density would make this result great, but, that only matters if it bothers you, if you’re content with current results then more power to you.

Very good progress man! 👍

Looks to be progressing very well. 👍

Dude! Is this a joke/trolling?? You do NOT need a procedure. Enjoy what you have until you don’t...THEN maybe, now NO.

Lewis Hamilton got a great result from his Ht.

Could be. Well if I had his money I’d throw mine away and get to Dr Couto asap! Haha.

He’s 43 years old....I’d be more concerned with all the sun-leathered folds and wrinkles on my face if I were him...not hating on him ...just an observation.. if he did undergo an Ht how is he ok with sunbathing and allowing his scalp to be exposed to possible sun damage which most all doctors say to avoid post-op...or maybe he didn’t have an Ht..

How’s month 8 coming along?

Progress update?

Hey man, I was checking out some FUE posts on Instagram and came across this Turkish clinic called Sapphire Hair Clinic that posts that it accepts HIV positive/ undetectable patients. Hope it helps, good luck. Link to their website: https://www.hairtransplantationturkey.co.uk/ https://www.instagram.com/sapphirehairclinic/

Good perspective @DEB1982....looking forward to how you progress as well as the recent others from the new clinic. I think personal touch and experience is important in any surgical procedure.. I also think refining and advancing the FUE process is also...but...I think many are concerned that with greater scale and quantity comes a possible degradation in quality and results, how is it not physically tiring for 1 Doctor to run around from surgical room to surgical room performing 30-45min incisions on 6-10 patients and monitoring them all as well as monitoring his staff as well as doing consultations on a daily basis and who know what other tasks, I think Dr Erdogan needs to address that directly, either here or on video, I think if there were more skilled doctors at ASMED assisting in the scaled-up procedures and not just technicians or 1 single doctor, that it wouldn’t be much of a concern on scale of ongoing surgeries. It would be great to see more in-depth video profiles/before&after on patients / techniques / new clinic on here or on ASMEDs YouTube channel or their social media but lately it just seems they’re not putting in the effort as they did years previously to be honest and have let it get stale...other than the occasional party/event/conference post....new updates would help counteract their detractors whom are purposefully overblowing their results as “botched” and are making ridiculous assertions when it’s obviously not the case.

It is pretty disconcerting that Dr Erdogan/ASMED are now doing 6-10 simultaneouse procedures a day....how is it possible for Dr Erdogan to do all the incisions in a timely manner that doesn’t allow for the removed grafts to degrade for some patients while they wait, while he is doing others’ incisions especially if each patients inscisions take anywhere from 30-45 minuets for him to do?? Plus...how is he adequately monitoring all the procedures going on on his screen...as well as conducting consultations with new patients....all at the same time??...it’s all very concerning to be honest.

What is the time frame of your procedure to your current results? Thanks Donor area looks great!

Ah gotcha, I see. 👍

Very nice result and hairline.

Nice result and density for 8-months.

Very nice and natural looking result.

I would think that a good indicator of a graft not surviving after being transplanted is if it remains as stubble and does not grow nor shed and remains stubble for weeks or months, given a lack of blood supply for nourishment and growth.

Your progress looks normal, no need to be paranoid or worried, just don’t do anything extreme to your scalp and you should be good, you’re not even at 4 months.

Hi Doc, Nice result! For just 7-months post-op, hairline, widows peak and hair style looks very nice and suits the patient, density even better at this stage too. 👍

Hey man, Your hair looks great for your age, if I were in your shoes I wouldn’t go for any procedure just yet (wait a few years to see how thinning has progressed if any), I’d stick to the medication and shampoo for at least another 6-months see how you improve, I’d also not tie up my hair in pony tails or man buns given that it is possible for hair loss from traction or tightness.

Hey man, thanks for updating. Looks acceptably good given the amount of grafts you received...but, yea, you probably need a round 2, and looks like you are covered there donor-wise. Would be great if you could post some photos of the hairline tho.

The numbers and stats guys misses the most important number...haha 🙂 👍
