Firstly I would like to thank this forum for giving me an education in how little I know about hair transplants and hair in general. Secondly I would like to thank this forum preventing me from spending 2k and absolutely ruining my life by getting an awful hair transplant 😂 (I was very close to biting on a cheap procedure)
OK my situation
I am 35 and my hairline is receding. It is becoming very hard to not look unkempt every day even though I generally put in an effort to not look like a HOBO.
I am looking to go abroad to a decent clinic. not like to the US for treatment or anything. I have been requesting quotes etc from places in Turkey and portugal etc. I can afford a decent treatment but I dont want to spend more than I have to obviously.
I am a patient type and have no problem waiting a year or so. I am having a costly dental treatment starting next month and that will cost 10k so don't have it on hand right now anyway but likely June would be the time.
here is a few pics. It is Norwood 2 or 3 max. I just want my hairline to not suck. I may try shaven head for a while.
What do you guys think I need. I am being told by Dr Bicer's coordinator i probably need at 3500-4000 (I was surprised by this even though I know nothing about transplants 😂) . Also is there a difference between Manual and micromotor in terms of results. I am trying to figure out all the pitfalls.
Dr's I am looking at
Ferreira , Bicer, Pekiner , HLC ,Demirsoy, Yaman and Eugenix as I may have a trip to india.
I don't take any meds and don't really want to but willing to listen to sense on taking post op for a while.
Any help appreciated and apologies for my COVID hairstyle, I havent been to a hairdressers in 18 months 😂
