So, if you look at my previous post, I've had a bad HT experience last year in Turkey. Multi-hair grafts in front, bad hairline, bad angles..

First, dr Gorana Kuka extracted the "bad" grafts, 3 times. She only left single grafts in there. And, finally, two days ago, I had my hair transplant with her, 1200 grafts. Really happy with the look of the hairline and temples so far.

First photo is from couple of days before op.

Hello from Serbia!

Been reading this forum for some time and I finally decided to make a topic. For quite long I wanted to ignore the fact that I was losing my hair, but I guess now I've come to terms with it and I am trying to figure out my next step. I guess that my type is norwood 2-3, my crown has some reduction in hair as well as my temples and now the front is starting to recede slowly too.

I've been 'treating' my problem since 2019, I had some bad experiences with doctors whose only goal was to take money from patients, I lost money on useless prp treatments, I even scheduled a hair transplant once in Serbia after an extensive research but cancelled it few days prior when I found out that the doctor's work was a total scam.

Last year I found doctor Sever from Hattingen hair , we even had a skype interview but he rejected me and told me to contact him after a year or more when I lose more hair.

Now the time has come and I think that maybe it is better to battle this head (and hair) on 😁 so even if i need a second transplant in the future I would avoid being bald-ish. But my choice now would be Istanbul due to finances.

I know that there are many experiences already written here, but somehow it makes me confused when I go through them and I am still getting used to what is where 😅 

I looked up Asmad clinic cause I've read some good reviews but I think they are too expensive for my budget.

If some experienced users would be kind to help me out with their Istanbul suggestions that aren't pricey I would be so grateful. Doesn't have to be first hand experience, just someone you heard or seen good work from.

 

Thanks in advance 😅

 

Which Serbian doctors work is a total scam? I need to know, because I want to do a procedure in Serbia.

Hello everyone! I just want to post my (bad) result of a hair transplant done at "NATURAL HAIR CLINIC" in Istanbul. HT done in january this year, soon to hit 8 month mark. DHI, 4700 grafts(as they have said). Hairline looks terrible in my opinion, a lot of multiple grafts in front, implanted at 90°, it just looks pluggy, temples look like horns growing out of my head!!!! Now I have to repair my hairline, and go through all the process again. Just a note to everyone considering doing hair transplant at that clinic. Just don't, or you'll end up with a pluggy looking hairline. Inexperienced technitians, they don't seem to think about anything, angles, directions, no no, they just take the choi pens and implant it at straight 90° angle. Be careful, do your research good before going under a knife, don't be like me.

Hmmm looks around 3k to me. 

In my case, it's better if it's way less than what they have said, cause I will have enough for the fix.

Also, thank you for your replies!

Thanks, have you got the post op pics ? We can see how many grafts were taken. If it was only 3500 then at least you will have plenty more in reserve. I severely doubt it was 4700.

What’s your donor area like now ? Can you post a pic ? How many grafts were taken for your first procedure ? Thanks 🙏 

Donor is really good right now, it's been 6 months since the procedure. They say it was 4700 grafts, but I think it's way less, like 3500-4000.

Repair procedures are more complicated than a normal hair transplant. I would choose a doctor who is familiar with this kind of surgery. Names have already been mentioned.

Yeah, I'm thinking of going to her clinic cause she has experience with repair procedures. You can take a look here: 

Also, she has some of it on her youtube channel.

Hello everyone!

I have a bad transplant results from a certain clinic in Istanbul - pluggy looking hairline, 90° angle of grafts, on temple sides it looks like horns growing out of my head when I grow it a bit longer. So, I want to have it repaired(removing multi-hair grafts from the hairline, removing the poor angled grafts from the sides, replacing it with singles, in proper direction and angles.), but I don't want to do it in Turkey, I'd prefer doing it in my hometown, Belgrade. The reason for that is obviously language barriers, and not having to travel to a different country. Also, most of the clinics here have good aftercare so I could go to them anytime after my transplant.

My question to you guys is, have any of you been to HAIR CENTER SERBIA ( dr Gorana Kuka Epstein)? I read some good reviews of her work, saw some pretty good photos of repairs, similar like mine.

Thank you very much.
