The best decision of my life was to fly to Turkey to have a hair transplant with Dr Koray Erdogan.
It was a decision I made after 2 years of research, a couple of consultations with UK clinics (who i wasn't very impressed with) and after reading the numerous positive reviews and amazing before and after pictures, i booked to go to Asmed. I was impressed with the results from the 5000 plus grafts they had done. I required the same and UK clinics didnt give me any confidence they could do this over 2 days. They told me I would have to have 2 smaller surgeries 1 year apart.
COST - Yes, Asmed was more expensive than other clinics in Turkey, however trust me, the saying that you get what you pay for is very true in life. I have friends who went to a cheap clinic and the results are unnatural, thin, and poor results. Compared to mine it is worlds apart. I knew with Asmed that for 5000 grafts I would get assurance that survival rate of each graft would be high and the results natural. No one can tell from my results I have had a transplant unless i tell them. I also get my sides shaved to a 0.5 i have no scarring!!
I had my transplant over 2 days on 15th and 16th May 2018.
When I arrived at the clinic I was immediately put at ease by the kind natured staff that greet you and are very comforting, putting any anxiety at ease. My patient co-ordinator was Suzanna who i cannot praise highly enough. She really is an amazong person, great at her job and makes sure you are comfortable through out your stay. The best way i can describe my experience at Asmed was that they treated me as if I was the most important person in the world. Something very impressive considering they see patients every day. BIG shout our to Dr Umut Kartal the anaesthetist who is a great guy. We had good chats and he always made sure i wasn't it pain.
I really cannot recommend Asmed highly enough. They changed my life. I am no longer self conscious about losing my hair. Due to how much hair i had lost I may need to have a 2nd op to thicken up my crown as I wanted most of my grafts for the mid and front of my head. I am not planning a 2nd op as of yet as I'm delighted withthe results, however if I do, it will without doubt be back to see the best clinic, in my opinion, in Europe.
Thanks Dr Koray Erdogan, Suzanna and the many others there that don't get a mention
