I'm starting to run out of words here. Is your job to ensure fairness or insert your opinion ? im baffled. I agree with your statement , but in my original post I made it clear (and the whole point of me even opening this topic back up) If longevita offer a low budget transplant , thats fine. Just make all the customers aware that it will be of a lower quality rather than market it to be the best transplant in turkey , it's for sure closer to the bottom of the pile than the top. This forum should benefit the young , not so informed men/women out there to not make a bad decision, I think you need to check your sincerity here @admin

I think your missing the point here , or you know very little about hair transplants. This is not an attack or defamation of an organisation. We are not here to post pictures and give a chance for longevita to respond , as I mentioned originally this is not a simple mistake that can be rectified. This is a butchered human head we are talking about. If Longevita cannot recognize the negligence then why will I waste even a minute dealing with them. How about they show and prove the measures they take to ensure a high quality treatment ? like an actual audit or a list of qualifications of their staff (including the technicians)? You are doing the hair transplant community a grave disservice by muting the voices of reality in dealing with such a poor quality treatment. I have managed to save some money , do research and partially rectify the damage done , my donor zone however looks uneven and terrible when as low as a level 3.(purely because there were 3 technicians plucking my follicles completely out of sync) To those who dont have the financial means , your leaving them at the mercy of longevitas marketing team. I'll be clear , I only have experience with the estethica levent clinic , with a surgery done by yasmine turgut and 3 technicians. Yasmine is a 6/7 out of 10 surgeon. But she does 10/15% of the surgery. The remaining 85% was done by 3 women who were shocking in retrospect , somehow as a young 25 year old i thought ciggarette breaks and laughing/joking during surgery was just how things are done. If your ignorant and decide to go with them , please pay extra and force yasmine to do the whole thing. This is a personal regret I have. Ive added photos showing overharvesting of the sides. Bare in mind I was between norwood 2 / 3 so my hairloss wasnt bad. they overharvested and didnt even plant them well

Annoyed to hear they got you also , I'd advise saving up and researching , can reccommend you the place I went to in London , or alternatively search online for a skilled surgeon. It will be a challenge to restore the mess they made, but someone good will sort you out i'm sure. The unskilled techs at longevita butcher the head and do not place the grafts well , when you experience a good surgeon , you'll see how well and carefully they extract & place grafts - they can do so much with so less. I hope it goes well for you!

Hi there mate , its been 2months so far and has 80% gone. will confirm once the 3month period is complete (thats the full recovery time for resurfacing)

Longevita team , I hold you highly into account for the errors in my surgery. You definitely capitalize on those who do not research into this surgery. Yes you have good communication , and try to accomodate , but that means nothing if your surgery team is low quality. This is not like a bad restaurant experience you can recover from , this is a lifelong scar. If what your saying is true , then why do reputable clinics in turkey charge more than youselves? let me tell you why , they give HT surgery more time and attention (attention that is mandatory in a transplant operation!) than a low budget transplant like the levent clinic. It's your right to offer a low budget procedure , but atleast be upfront with what we can expect. You have put a real bitter taste in my mouth with turkish healthcare , which is a shame because i know their are talented surgeons in turkey. You need to take responsibility and investigate into these matters , it's non acceptable to put your name behind such careless practioners who follow 0 standard procedures. 3 women singing and chatting while extracting 3800 follicles from the back of my head at the same time , with no consideration for uniformity - unnacceptable.

Hairsonality , Harj . Your stories are really shocking , and I read them with a heavy heart. Reason being I too was operated on by Yasemine turgut and her assistants. I had confidence in longevita through their marketing and they offered a reasonable price , however I didnt do enough research into the procedure and went into it head first (as can be expected of a 25 y.o young man) I had 3800 grafts for my hairline , frontal density and crown density. I was a norwood 3/4. Yasemine herself did my hairline , which is 6/10 , natural look however the join at the temples is sloppy and her implanting wasnt great which lead to a phe nomenon known as cobblestoning. The density was also not great , was still thin in the corners post op. The assistants (x3) seemed like sweet elder women , but there was definitley an unprofessional environment (singing/laughing/chatting) considering the meticulous demand of removing and inserting sub 1mm hair follicles into someones head. The extraction of my donor area was nothing short of terrible , way too overharvested on my sides and i now cannot cut my hair lower than a level 3. Also the implanting done by the assistants was equally bad , the direction of the hair stands up which looks odd. This was done in 2019 , I was since offered a £500 fixing procedure from longevita which I turned down as there was no way i'd let a surgeon of theres touch my head. I have since had corrective surgery in the UK and they managed to improve my frontal area by making it more uniform , this was done with 500 grafts. I have also had to do laser resurfacing treatment for cobblestoning . and finally ive done SMP to try and mask the scarring in the donor area. In total costing 5.5k. , nearly 3 times the price of the actual transplant just so I could fix it. Yasemine is what you can expect on a low budget , but the technical skill of the assistants is way below acceptable. Having spent a bit more getting it done in london , I now know what a correct execution of this procedure looks like with high level surgeons. There were no assistants , only one to count the hair follicles. all extraction/implanting was done by the surgeon himself , it was like watching a craftsman at work as opposed to turkey which seemed more like watching a soap opera. I feel strongly about making this public , so that more people don't have to suffer. This is surgery that requires skill and time. when you go low budget you compromise both. Hope you guys are doing better - especially you harj!
