When you were there did you have your whole head bandaged or just the recipient area?

I have a transplant with Pekiner next week and I’ve been asked to pay in cash, has anyone here had any experiences in paying in cash, ideally in Turkey, and specifically with Pekiner.

Incredible early results.

Hi Gatsby, I’ve followed your Eugenix journey and along with other cases it’s inspired me to choose them for my transplant too. I also go in January, from the 11th To the 20th. When are you going? Maybe we’ll bump into each other.

I don’t see many high Norwood cases from them compared to Eugenix.

High Norwood first timers on a budget? Who would you suggest for high norwoods on a bigger budget? I am scheduled to go to Eugenix in January to see Dr Sethi.

Hi John, is it possible wear the hair down and have a bit of a fringe? Most pics I see of people with transplants have their hair combed back but I like to have my hair a couple of inches long and have a fringe. Is it easy to style it like that or does the direction of the implantations mean that it is difficult to wear your hair in that way?

I have a similar pattern to you, do you think you will be going back for a second procedure? Also do you have more pics of the side donor pre-op and post-op? Hopefully it turns out great.

Very happy for you mate, great result.

Hi John, I’m from Manchester too and looking to go to Eugenix to have a trabsplant with Dr Sethi. What was Dr Sethi’s involvement in your procedures? The package I have booked I have been told that Dr Sethi will be doing the design, planning and 100% of the slits, with his team doing the rest of the procedure. Is that similar to what you had? Looking good btw 👍

I thought so too, but I have been talking to one of their team on WhatsApp and I have booked to do a session with him, the cost is the same as the one where Dr Arika Bansal does the designing, planning, 100% slits, 100% extraction and up to 400 implants. I have been told that the one I have booked for will include Dr Sethi doing the planning, design, and 100% slits, and his team do the rest. Is that his usual package?

No matter how good a hair transplant is, it won’t be good enough to prevent further loss.

@Alphaone Do they operate on high Norwood cases? I haven’t seen many of their results on high norwoods if they do. I’m prepared to spend some money but isn’t Dr Konior something like £10 per graft? That’s a fair bit out of my price range.

I am wondering who would be the best surgeon to go with for extensive Norwood cases. I have pretty good donor hair so I think between my beard and scalp hair I could get a good result, but which is the better option? I think Eugenix as a whole have great donor management and seem more careful when extracting hair, but from what I’ve heard Dr Sethi has less involvement in hands-on extraction than he used to have. On the other hand I’ve seen Dr. Pittella use a lot more grafts than seems necessary on some patients, and he also seems less concerned about overall hair treatment as a whole than the Eugenix team (he doesn’t suggest Finasteride or dutasteride for example). Pittella does seem to have better aesthetic results, certainly in the short term. I don’t know about if his approach is also safe for preserving hair long term, and if he takes into account possible future hair transplants, but his immediate results look great even in patients with extensive loss. So when it comes to donor I do think Eugenix tends to play it safer, which makes me think I should go with them, but I’m also concerned that Dr Sethi doesn’t have the same role in his procedures that he used to have, and therefore can I still expect similar results? I have heard some good feedback regarding his team of technicians though so maybe if they have worked well together and for a long time maybe the results are still at a high standard? I know a lot of people here are more experienced than me when it comes to both of these guys, I’d appreciate some insight from anyone who is willing to share it. Basically what are their current practices and what should I be expecting from them? I would consider Zarev but he’s seemingly impossible to make contact with. Thanks!
