Hi LaserCap, you seem very knowledgeable! The main reason for me posting is if I can genuinely help one person make a decision based on my experience then I'd be happy. For most people I guess this will be something they go through once in their lifetime and to say its a confusing field is, as most will agree, an understatement. For sure, a lot of your points make perfect sense but I will touch on a few: I stated I wanted to give my review '2 months after surgery', I also mention 'I understand it will take some time to see the final results'. So my words may be preliminary but its all I can base it on at the moment. I still look at the mirror lots of times a day to check for changes but I know it will take time so probably shouldn't check so much! You mention it 'truly means nothing' to have only one patient per day, I really disagree with this point. Although the results may have been completely different, maybe even better, for me this was a big thing. Mentally, to know that I was the only patient in the surgery that day meant a lot. When I said the 'team was outstanding' again I can only comment on my experience, I haven't done this before, maybe it was awful! But for me, I couldn't have asked for more. I was very welcomed, provided with every detail I needed prior to travelling and afterwards. Yes, I did FUE. In total just over 3200 grafts. 0.6mm punch. I researched online and was very close to going to a clinic that a colleague went to and highly recommended, I spoke with those guys and just didn't have a good vibe. I had a few video calls with the Doctor herself and it felt right from the offset. She was very professional and spoke with a focus on my health initially, most others spoke only of the result and the price. Post op, yes I went to the clinic the day after for a clean and a de-brief. Was provided with all the aftercare products etc. On the day before the surgery I went in for pre-op, had a very detailed discussion about the procedure, met the team etc. As I say, I'm more than happy to answer some more questions. I have plenty of pictures from the lead up and the days after the surgery. The one question I do have is the use of finasteride and whether this is something most people take afterwards? Maybe you can help advise with that? Cheers

Hi everyone, I wanted to give an honest review 2 months after surgery. At the start of lockdown I shaved my head as I needed to make a decision on whether I got a transplant or not, I had been deliberating for a long time, shaving my head made my mind up as I had always covered up quite well. I initially spoke to 3 or 4 clinics and from the offset, Dr.Bicer and the team were by far the most thorough and supportive. They look at 1 patient per day and this was hugely important for me. I wanted to make sure if I was doing it, I was doing it right. I had all the information needed beforehand to make a decision and I had no doubts it was the right choice. At the pre-op the day before, I was given all the information I could need. The day of the op and during it everything was explained really well and I understood completely each stage. Knowing you are the only patient is great and the team were outstanding. I am really happy with the results so far and the aftercare from the team has been brilliant. Any questions or advice I need, is available straight away. I understand it will take time to see the final results but I am delighted with everything and would recommend getting in contact with Dr. Bicer and her team if you are considering a hair transplant. I'm happy to share more information if you need.
