    2200 Grafts FUE - DR KAAN

    I had some concerns before but it really wasn't a problem. The way they split the surgery up over multiple sessions/days seems to give the doctor enough rest. Keep in mind my surgery wasn't a very big one, so I'm not sure how things work for major cases(3K+ grafts). 

    Thanks for the honest answer!

    He uses forceps for implantation. Regarding the wait time between extraction and implantation, each day is usually divided into 2 "sessions". Each session is split up into two parts: the extraction (during which 400-750 grafts are extracted), followed by implantation after a 10-15 minute break. 

    So a typical day looks like this:

    Arrive at clinic 

    Extraction Round 1

    10-15 minute break 

    Implantation Round 1

    Lunch Break(1 Hour) 

    Extraction Round 2  

    10-15 minute break 

    Implantation Round 2

    Thanks for the info!

    Does Creatine Cause Hair Loss

    in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers

    Posted

    Yes, for me, creatine did exacerbate my hair loss, I did feel slight “gains” but stopped taking it a while ago after seeing that there are studies that say it does “assist” in loss of hair.

    As for Whey, I buy the most “cleanest” one on the market ‘Naked’ brand but lately have not been taking it and have been taking an all natural collagen peptide protein powder in my pre-workout coffee (20oz), joints and recovery feels better, same with skin and hair slightly.

    This is very similar to my result from Asmed. They seem to have got it totally wrong with hairlines. I am happy with the rest of the work they did however. 

    My advice to anyone is consider Asmed for big jobs, anything behind the hairline. For hairlines, you need a surgeon who does the entire thing himself, no tech's, just the artistry of the surgeon. Your hairline is what frames your face and makes the biggest difference to your appearance - don't let tech's do that. Also, don't try and convince your surgeon to lower your hairline too much, it will never look good. 

    You'll have to pay more but you get what you pay for. 

    Hi. Have you created a post of your progress?...is there a link you can post?

    Thanks.

    Looks good. I haven’t read or seen much about Dr Kaan so will be following your progress, happy growing!

    By the way, how does the Dr implant the grafts?...forceps or an implanter pen?

    And , how long is the wait from completion of extraction that the Dr starts implanting?

    Thanks.

    I m just wondering, how could you just go suggest someone to consider someone else, where you had zero experience with that specific surgeon.  

    If you did indeed do a research, you would see he had mixed results just like bunch of other surgeons, including the almighty Erdogan. I have done my research as well, yet I have never posted anywhere here or elsewhere for someone to go consider someone else because such surgeon is terrible. Your statement was just very ignorant. 

    How would you feel if some random dude on the internet who has never had any dealing with your services just shitting on your business because someone else didn’t have a good experience with you? 

     

    I don’t care how you feel about a specific surgeon or business. Instead of trashing them, just choose not to use them. If you had any negative experience with them, then the floor is yours, have at it. 

    First off, I want to say that if Yoyooo is 100% happy with his experience and 100% happy with the results he’s had thus far with Dr Doganay, then,  that is all that matters, and I won’t feel insulted if he disagrees or ignores my comments/opinion of his results...I wish him the best of luck.

    Same goes for you, ILtrooper, if you’re completely satisfied and happy with your experience and progress thus far with Dr Doganay then great, more power to you.

    Now...I didn’t recommend ANY specific surgeons to Yoyooo until he asked, I simple stated he should not go back to Doganay and instead go to another reputable Dr given his grafts are even more limited now. Yes, I can just suggest because I have an opinion on Dr Doganay based on his previous unethical actions, responses or lack there-of, and posted results from unhappy patients of his that He mislead/ignored...UNTIL they started sharing their bad experiences with him and not just the bad results, on this forum...WHICH demanded a response and accountability and proper action from him .....and I gotta say,... if that didn’t happen, if those patients didn’t speak up and post their bad experiences and results forcing Doganay to do better...would YOUR experience and results be as great as you claim they have been thus far?.

    Also, I don’t think Yoyooos results are “terrible”, never said that, I was being honest in that for the amount of grafts Doganay used his result thus far is not the best, very sub-par actually, and if he’s considering a 2nd Ht that he could do better elsewhere, especially given that the Dr has pulled some shady and shoddy things in the past on previous patients that have been chronicled extensively here on this website that made me loose confidence in his credibility and methods. If you would have used the ‘search’ feature on this site I’m sure you would find what I’m talking about.

    That’s my opinion I have the right to my opinion, there’s nothing “ignorant” with having an opinion after doing my own research and reading, whether it be a business or a person if someone doesn’t like it they can kick dirt and wah wah wah me a river.

    I did update the thread and talked about when the next update be. So far it’s great. I think I maybe a tad faster grower than the average Joe. 

     

    lets move onto your experience. Care to share? Or are you one of those folks just trashing someone because you heard others complained about their experience. And for that reason you should be taken seriously?

     

     

     

     

    Will check it out.

    Im still in the researcher stage...been doing a lot of and for a while.

    1. I rarely have trashed anyone one here so your questionable assertion of whether I “should be taken seriously “ is moot and laughable actually.

    2. Nor have I given yoyooo my opinion prior or “trashed” Doganay in this thread, I wanted to give the benefit of doubt and see how yoyooo’s results progressed before any comment or criticism...which is being fair and unbiased.

    3. I gave my honest opinion on his results thus-far and my opinion of Dognany based on his past unethical actions given that yoyooo is considering going back to him.

    But I guess my opinion and criticism seems to have struck a nerve with you I guess so you seem to being wanting to play defense for Doganay.

    VicTnyc - I only have great things to say about my experience! Granted I'm only 10 months in but compared to before its night and day. I knew I would need to have a 2nd procedure and wanted to wait a year to see the results of the 1st. My donor area was weak and they couldn't extract the graphs that I wanted so....

    I'm curious to know who you would recommend instead of Dr. Doganay?

    Did you have a bad experience with him and the staff?

     

    Hi yoyoo, I haven’t had any experience with Dr Doganay, but, I did a lot of research on here and elsewhere and discovered that he or his clinic were doing unethical and improper procedures on patients that resulted in several with bad results and he was reprimanded on this forum by many for his actions, this occurred a few years ago I believe and this forced him to apologize and correct his actions but he lost my vote and trust.

    I’m glad you had a good experience with him and, yes, at your 10-months there is more time for improvement, but, if I’m being totally honest and not blowing smoke, the amount of grafts he did for you should have produced a much better result, hope it does improve for you tho. 

    I personally like the results produced HLC clinic, Dr Keser, some of Dr Cinik & Erdogan results, HDC in Greece, the Belgium docs, Dr Lorenzo, Dr Freitas, Dr Couto...and more that have been discussed on here many times.

    Care to share your experience with Doganay that failed miserably?

    I dont have one, but when I was researching him on here there were several cases of him doing unethical and improper procedures in order to cut corners and expenses and increase his profits and rushing procedures that resulted in several botched patients on here, and there was a thread from the Moderators on removing him as a “recommended” surgeon on this site. This was from posts and threads from a couple or a few years ago, but, once a surgeon unethically does things purposefully and willfully they loose my trust.
