Yes I know UV is different, I should have used another example, my point was just to say that certain things must be avoided, whoever the patient or doctor are.

@gillenator I didn't get surgery yet, I was just wondering. Also I don't think the answer is specific per case, I think it's the same for everyone, like everyone should protect the hair from UVs for the 3 months following surgery.

Ok, I had read somewhere on the Internet after 1 month, but I don't find the source anymore...

Hi,

Does anyone know if we are supposed to wait before resuming laser helmet/cap treatment (such as iRestore, Capillus, etc.) after performing FUE surgery?
If yes, for how long?

Thanks.

With those requirements including costs, you will really be limiting yourself to a handful of doctors if not less.

I don't think $7-8k is very limiting...

@jj51702 Keser has a crappy buggy website with almost no info, nothing about the cost, etc. HLC is very expensive for a clinic in Turkey. I guess I was not clear when I said the price was not a problem, I meant those 2 doctors I am talking about are in the same range, below 7-8k.

@Crumpet There are many positive reviews with photos about Dr Meddeb in that other French forum international-hairlossforum. More info about him (in English) https://hairmedclinics.com/hair-transplant-clinics/tunis-dr-khaled-meddeb/ Also he is the only one asking for a blood test with many things to check, 1 week before surgery. I feel like if he was an amateur he wouldn't care about such things. He also does PRP after surgery (optional), which Dr Demirsoy doesn't perform.

But again Demirsoy seems very good too (this is why I am posting in this forum, because I am indecisive ;-))

Dr Meddeb is in Tunisia this is maybe why people don't talk much about him in this forum. He has a good reputation in Europe apparently.

Why those 2, because I wanted doctors/clinics that take only 1 patient a day, where the doctor does everything or almost everything himself. Dr Pekiner was another option but he never replied...
 

Hello,

I have 2 options for FUE surgery, beginning of November with Dr Erkan Demirsoy in Istanbul (3500-4000 grafts), or Dr Khaled Meddeb in Tunis end of February (2500-3000 grafts).
Price and travel is not a problem. I have a slight preference for Dr Meddeb but it's kind of annoying to wait for 6 months, plus that means my hair will be all ugly starting in spring and, I am afraid, for all summer.
Would 3 and half more months make a difference? What do you guys think?

Thanks in advance!
