Went to see Yaman in August and have been pleased with the results thus far. Results always vary.  I share the same anxiety and reservation anyone would have going into a hair transplant.  I don’t have any of the scarring and I’ve already gotten compliments into my 4th month.   I say take the leap, don’t overthink it, it’s a calculated risk.  Lmk if any questions.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. Your  experience and updates have made me feel so much better about getting the process done by Dr.  Yaman (definately calmed my nerves). I am headed to Turkey this weekend from Texas for a hair transplant with Dr. Yaman. I am getting about 3,400 grafts at the front of my hair line. Been thinking about it for awhile now.

Question - beside the pain from the injections from the anesthesia was the procedure itself painful? Did you feel any discomfort during the process? Once the anesthesia wore out, how did you feel? Any painkillers? My sister is coming along and wanted to stay at the clinic while i had the procedure. Is tat necessary? How was the trip back and recovery? My plan is to head back to the office 5 days after the procedure.

Thank you.

Had my procedure done a month ago with Yaman.  Flew from Dallas solo and the trip back and forth was smooth sailing.  I upgraded to business on the return flight and was glad I did since it’s a long one.   Be prepared to experience pain / discomfort for the needles. I did not love it. I’ve taken multiple needles before but when you did in rapid succession for what felt like 100x in a row for like 10 minutes it became less tolerable.   
 

The post op has been fine but the itching and sensitivity can get annoying.  My dermatologist prescribed me FLUOCINOLONE to help with it. 
 

best of luck!

I couldn’t help but notice there are some dry itchy patches on the top

of your back.  Are those unrelated preexisting conditions?  I’m concerned about possible side effects of HT particularly past folliculitis that might recur as result of doing HT.
