(3 of the photos I posted were taken right after I got a haircut, and were taken with an LED video light at full blast facing towards me. The other 5 photos were taken about 2 weeks later, and under regular indoor room lighting. I'm sure you can figure out which one is which)
Here are the responses I received from the few clinics I contacted:
Smile Hair Clinic - 2500-3000 grafts
Vera Clinic - 4040-4465
ASMED - took like a week to respond to me, after I emailed them the photos. straight up refused to do my transplant, as my donor area is too weak. I requested that they use my beard hair as donor, and they said that they are not willing to do that
AHD - asked me to send them photos when my hair grows a bit more (???)
Dr. Ahmed Altan - didn't specify the number of grafts I would need, but said that they don't do beard-to-scalp transplants because apparently beard donor hairs fall off after 1 year, which sounded questionable to me.
Not sure what I should do now.
Both Vera and SHC seem to have questionable reputation these days, but atleast they are willing to do a transplant in my case.
