I really do not know. He is not working there

The whole story with this clinic 6-7 months after the surgery is little bit of a joke. They invited me to their consultations in berlin and i went just because i wanted to hear what they have to say to me. They offered my to do a repair with 150 grafts, that means they wanted to take 150 grafts from the area above the Depletion and put them in the donor area. I have talked to many doctors after the surgery and they all told me that another hairtransplant is very difficult, i need at least 5000-6000 bodyhairs which i do not have and the result is not guaranteed. This concept with 150 gafts was straight up bullsh*t. I asked the guy why he told me that with my donor area they can go up to 6000 grafts ant their rep. answered me that he did not meaned that, he meant 6000 grafts counting the previous op that i had. This is straight up lie. I asked the guy why he did not checked my donor area at the first or at the second surgery and i did not get any answer. I sawed him pictures of my donor area and asked him how did he came up with this idea doing two surgeries and he did not answered. Their rep. told me that they cannot evaluate this pictures, the pictures that they took at the day of the surgery. After that their rep. came with another idea to do a repair with 500 grafts from the beard and some chesthairs too. He did not bothered to check the beard, which is also depleted, or if i have any chesthairs too. Anyway i dont want to get more into details but the whole thing was sketchy and premeditated. Their rep. told me after the consulting by mistake that they were reccording the conversation. Probably being afraid of a lawsuit and after legal advice they invited me there and told some more lies to me. The director of the clinic even told me that from where i begin until now i have made a big progress, that he is the prasident of fue europe and i cannor question his ethics. Well a big liar and a real snake is what he is. A couple of weeks after this consulting i got a call from their rep. asking me about my decision if i wanted to do the repair or if i wanted some money back. Otherwise we will have to go through the court because i went public with this and i should not because they did not did this intentionally. I explained the guy what the director was doing by the consulting in the second surgery, he was joking with the other doctor about the poor growth that i had, told me that i had to pay 2,7 euros for the unshaven op and never bothered to check my donor area. He then told me that he was ashamed too for what he did, which i do not believe by any means. Melvin, this is not a bad case that every clinic has. This is fraud from the very beginning. At my first surgery by them the guy saw that i had severe Dermatitis and that needed to be treated before the surgery. He did not told me anything about it because de did not wanted to cancel the surgery. He checked my donor area with naked eye after they shaved my head and told me that it looks great, that they can go up to 6000 grafts, no serious doctor does something like that. The second part of my surgery with them, making the incisions ant the implantation of the grafts in the crown which is supposed to be the difficult par, was not done by a doctor of this clinic but from a young guy who was there to do a training on fue. How can this be ok? I have a big responsibility too because i believed everythig this guy told me and did not realise where i was getting myself into. This was all done for the money.

Hi, thanks man. No, unfortunately i did not found any solution to this. I am in a stage were i am scared to leave the house or look myself in the mirror. I wish i would have found you guys before making any decisions.

I have already told what happened. Before HLC there was no damage done and no big surgery. The reason for an overharvested donor area in no other but the gread of the doctor there to get more grafts and more money out of a patient. Unfortunately there are many scammers who pretend to be the doctors and the hair spezialist.

This is 8 months after surgery, nothing really changed. They have really destroyed my donor area.

You seem to know everything about this patient and what the doctors did. How do you know all this stuff? Were you there by his consulting too? I have to ask you again, do you have any proof of what you are saying and who you are?

Happy you can assure me about this and that you are running a tight ship. Omega5 is new to this forum too and he knows another patient with the same problem too, from america. Do you have any proof from what you are saying? Because i think i have prooved everything i have said.

Honestly i feel you are missing the point and the problem they have caused me. I have made this thread to show the damage that this clinic caused to the back of my head. This is something serious and really hard to fix.

At the consulting by the first procedure the Director asked me about it and i have told him that i have ekzem. Dermatitis. That is all about. No, they did not offered or said anything about a biopsy.

All the doctors that i have mentioned are doing manual punch for the last 20 years ant they are still taking this approach in order not to damage the grafts. I do not get that point with the first and the second procedure. Are you telling me the butchers are doing this always at the first time? It is not that hard to find out if you had Schockloss or overharvesing after a hairtransplant. You go to a doctor and you let him examine photos from your donor area after the procedure and now. If you scan and compare this photos via computer you now exactly the problem and what has been done. Anyway, thanks for your opinion.

I have considered that. I have a scar on the back of my head from pervious strip and that makes me not a good candidate for smp. With smp you have to shave you head literally very day to make it look natural. By shaving the head is the scar exposed.

I am not talking about extractin 2000 grafts per day with motorised punch, i am talking about manual punch. If you go to doctors like bicer or mwamba or other top doctors the can extract 2000 grafts with the motorised punch in aday without any problems. With the manual punch you need a whole day to extract 1000 grafts, if you want to do it right. That is what i have been told at least. As i said before i feel responsiple for making this decision to go to this clinic. I was naive believing all that was said to me.

I think we know each other. It is easy for you to find a patient that travelled all this way from America to turkey and got rejected from this clinic because of his Disease. I bet he had sub. Dermatitis too. Can you saw me some pictures from this patient too?

I paid for the second surgery in full. I have already written you know, i really thought i should wait after the fist surgery for the results to come.They have used 2000 grafts from beard and it can take up to 16 months for this grafts to grow. I was unhappy 6 months after the procedure but i did not believe it was a failure. I thought i should give it more time for the final result to come.

Omega5 i think we know each other. Or not?
