Hello everyone, First time poster in this group! I have greatly appreciated being able to follow along with the many men who have taken the time to share their experiences in real time! Based on my research, I have decided to go to Turkey to Dr. Cinik’s clinic to have the procedure completed. Little bit of background on me: I am from Alberta, Canada (lived here most of my life) and I started experiencing hair loss when I was 18 (hair loss is very prominent in my family, unfortunately). As you can imagine, that definitely felt awesome 😂. I am 26 now and throughout the years my hairline has set to a III on the Hamilton-Norwood scale and I’m left with what you can see in the photos. I’ve always wanted to have a hair transplant, but could never justify the cost. A friend of mine told me that he went to Turkey for his procedure and that he was extremely happy with the results and the price he paid. I am planning on getting married in the next year and a half, so that’s why I want to have it done now. I’ve been taking 1mg Finasteride daily for the past few months, but other than that, I haven’t done anything else. With all of that being said, I want to do my part to contribute to this community and help other men who are deciding on having this procedure done as well. I want to update everyone on my journey as I go through the procedure and what my experience has been with the clinic, recovery, etc. I am a doctor, so these forums are a God send when it comes to being informed and having direct patient-reported experiences vs clinic testimony’s! Now, time to get into it... I will be flying to Turkey on March 8 and will be flying back March 13 at Dr. Emrah Cinik’s clinic. The procedure I will be having is Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) and I have been quoted for about 3200-3500 grafts to cover the front baldness. So far my experience with the clinic has been great! The rep I have been communicating with is Esin, who has been great at answering all of my questions and responding in a very timely fashion. Everything about the encounter has been very professional and legit so far, which puts the consumer at ease. Additionally, I would love to hear some input/advice from others who have done the procedure about what things I should being to enhance comfort after the procedure. I have heard that the neck pillow they give you isn’t very comfortable and that you should bring your own. The clinic has also told me to make sure I wear very comfortable clothing for during the procedure! Anything else that I should bring? Very excited to see how everything goes and looking forward to being a part of this great community! Chat soon! Bax -
Dr. Louis Nader is one of the best! Very happy with my results. his team is absolutely great and my results speak volumes on what he can do. FIRST PROCEDURE-was around 3900 grafts done in two day. This covered my front and crown. SECOND PROCEDURE- was around 1850 focused on the front for added density. Although I was happy at this point my crown might have gotten a little thinner with in the 2 year span so I went in for a 3rd. THIRD PROCEDURE- 2550 grafts placed in front and crown. Currently I am only out 5 months from this procedure. I do have light and thin hair which makes density a challenge but Dr. Nader gave me the best result I could hope for. Thank you Dr. Nader!😊 -
Hi, I am 28 years old and writing this to help others in their hairloss journey as others have helped me in mine. Today I underwent a DHI transplant at Dr Cinik in Istanbul, if anyone has questions they can reply in the thread. Day before procedure Arrive at Istanbul airport Went to meeting point Luxury car took me to an amazing hotel Consultation was evening of arrival, blood taken, hairline drawn by Dr Cinik, payment taken, pictures taken. Day 0 (day of procedure) Leave hotel for clinic 7.45am next morning for procedure Head is shaved Taken to procedure room Anaesthetic administered, lots of needles and a little painful. Hooked up to antibiotic drip entire time First they extract the grafts with an electrical instrument of which the sound reminded me of going to dentist Another person is collecting the grafts and another person is sorting them into petri dishes Snacks and drinks provided intermittently Some of the positions you are in can be uncomfortable For DHI two people loaded the grafts into 'pens' and another person inserted them into the recipient area Following this the whole area is cleaned, grafts are padded down to made sure they are secure, PRP administered, bandages applied Once finished I was given a take home pack with medication, hat, neck pillow, 10 year guarantee. Total 9 1/4 hour day, 7.45am - 5pm The area stings and throbs after procedure and can only sleep in upright with inflatable pillow provided Dr Cinik did not perform the transplant, but checked in a few times during the operation All staff are extremely friendly and accomodating

Hi, My name is Sim, I am 27 years old and i am from Canada. My friend and i have decided that we are going to Eugenix hair transplant in india. After doing research for about 5 years we narrowed it down to either Darling buds and Eugenix in india. After looking into both places to the "T" we feel like the results at eugenix are more dense then darling buds. The method used a Eugenix is a bit different then the method used at darlings buds thats another reason we chose Eugenix (Eugenix uses DHI introduced in 2013) . Darling buds have been around longer and might have more experience but we felt like the results at Eugenix were better density wise. I will be posting my overview about the surgery along with pictures every month and how my trip/surgery was at Eugenix. We both have decided that we are going to go with the "Comprehensive and exclusive package" that Eugenix offers and we both decided we are going to get are hair transplant done from Dr.Anika Bansal. We will begin are journey to india on March 5th 2020 and are surgery will take place March 9th and 10th 2020 once the surgery is done i will start posting my progress, grafts implanted, before/after pictures, monthly updates, and other information that you guys would like to know. I will also be putting up videos on my youtube channel of the progress every month, i was told by many of my followers to do so because most people following me want to get a hair transplant and obviously want to see the results before commiting to do this big procedure. I will put a link up of my channel once the surgery is done so you guys can follow that as well. I am excited and nervous about this, I've been waiting for a long time. Feel free to message me anytime and i will try my best to answer your guys questions.

Hello, my name is Eric Patric and I had an operation with HAIR EXPERT a month ago in Turkey. Everything went out great! I did DHI and they implanted 2850 follicles as they told me I did not need more than that. To be honest I did not feel a lot of pain, but there is gonna be pain, it is normal since they do not put general anesthesia; but I also know that it depends on each one´s pain threshold. Apparently I got lucky, because I got the surgery in a good clinic and so far everything is fine, but has it been the same with you? Did you feel a lot of pain? -

Hi all, Thanks to many of you posting your experiences and photos I have finally decided to have a hair transplant mostly for my receding hairline. When the number of days after a hair cut it took for my hair to look good increased from 5, to 10, to 14, to 30, I knew something had to be done, and I am truly appreciative of the amazing options we have available to us in this day and age. There is some thinning to the crown but I was not bothered by it (below photo is quite a harsh view of it) Of the 3 options available, I opted for the DHI method in which they use utilise choi pens to implant the hairs for a denser result. Apparently a DHI expert is flown in to conduct the operation. Grafts: 2800 Date: 1st September 2018 PRE operation pics These are all 'best hair' photos - hair grown long to hide the recession. I rarely allowed photos when my hair was short. -

This Doctor by profession was a 42 year old man when he got his procedure done with us. He got 3100 grafts from the scalp donor and 685 grafts from his beard donor. The total number of grafts done for him were 3785. We covered his frontal zone with these grafts and he was prescribed Finasteride, Minoxidil and hair specific multivitamins for his pre-existing hair. He went in for the Exclusive package where Dr. Pradeep Sethi performed his procedure. The results displayed in the pictures below are after 5 months. He has achieved incredible results.

Being in the industry of hair transplantation, we get the opportunity to play a part in an individual's journey to happiness. Although a small role in their overall change of personality and look, results such as exhibited below give us tremendous satisfaction and gratification. Our patients are our greatest source of inspiration. When Mr. RY came in for a consult with us, he had already witnessed our work on the head of our former patient. He is a close friend to that patient and he was amazed at how we had completed a corrective procedure for his friend. Mr. RY was Grade IV on the Norwood Hamilton Scale with a receding hairline and an empty crown area. He received: 1. Scalp donor: 2625 grafts 2. Beard donor: 1115 grafts The total number of grafts done for Mr. RY was 3740. He choose the Comprehensive package wherein the hairline design and hairline slits were done by Dr. Arika Bansal. The rest of the procedure completed by Eugenix team. When we witness the results that he has achieved after a year, it is nothing short of fabulous. His salt and pepper hair look gorgeous and his face is well framed by the designed hairline. He has been regular with his medications and PRP. Together with him, we join in his happiness to show off this amazing and beautiful result.

I started losing my hair at the age of 15… So this year in March I finally took the step to undergo a DHI hair transplant in Paris. A French YouTuber’s videos had convinced me with his videos as I saw the amazing results of his new hairline! Therefore I went to the same clinic and decided to document my own journey as well on my YouTube channel. I truly hope these videos can help others that are struggling with their hair loss, just like that French YouTuber helped me with his story. Personally, I’m very satisfied with the results, especially after seeing the comparison between the before & after 😊 Here you find a summary of my 6 months growth since Day 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqkbtdy-W7E&list=PLkzpL5QNn_ueEO8yQjtvNh_jAG2HPg0et&index=2&t=0s Final results will only be visible one year after the intervention. I’ll be uploading this update in the future as well of course! Happy growing to everyone! 😄 -
I underwent a hair transplantation 5 months ago. DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) technique - a type of FUE method - was used in the transplantation. About 2400 grafts were transplanted on the front and top of my head and other 1700 grafts (from my chest and chin) were transplanted on my crown. I took a photo after 4 months of the transplantation and another photo after 5 months of the transplantation. They are both attached here. However, there is really no difference between them. Is normal for the transplanted hairs to delay before starting to grow? In addition, I see now very thin hairs on my head (not visible in the 2nd photo). Do transplanted hairs start to grow as very thin hairs? -
Hello everyone, An influencer on YouTube created some amazing content concerning his recent hair transplant. I was so amazed of the results that I decided to do the same hair transplant in the same clinic. Thanks to this person and his results, I had the courage to do this and therefore I decided to document my own hair journey on YouTube as well. Hopefully I can motivate others who are still doubting, just like the other guy motivated me with his story! Since my intervention in March, I post frequently new results and current updates concerning my hair growth on my channel. It's been 6 months now since my intervention, and here I am, with a new update to show the world! You can see for yourself if the doctors did a good job or not. But personally, I'm TRULY satisfied with the results Happy growing to everyone! Cheers! ~Gabiche

I was underwent hair transplant procedure by DHI technique about 4 months ago. After about 3.5 months of the procedure (exactly 112 days), I walked under the hot sun for 2.5 hours (from 15:30 to 19:00pm) to induce vitamin D to my transplanted hair. Afterthat, I noticed that my long hair looks a little less dense even though I still see new hairs which are about to grow up but not so much. In fact, my hair starts to look more dense after 3 months of the procedure and the vellus hairs have disappeared but I am not sure if it fell or transformed to normal hair. When I invistigated about this issue, I have found that I shouldn't expose my transplanted hair to the sun for at least 4 months or the transplanted grafts will be harmed. Have my transplanted grafts been harmed or affected?

Yesterday I had a DHI hair transplant of 1000 grafts or 2000 hair. The procedure was very clear and professional, but it was very painful for me, because anaesthesia wasn't working well on my head. I liked the implantation phase (although it was insanely painful), because they were using an implanter, so it was very quick. The longest part was the extraction of grafts. What do you think? Thanks.

Hi All, To start, this site is already extremely helpful in the evaluation of hair transplant clients. I'm currently living in Hong Kong and was recommended a clinic called. After speaking with the doctor thoroughly during the consultation, I'm deciding if it's best to continue with the hair transplant procedure here in Hong Kong or look to travel elsewhere (potentially the USA). Research suggests that the two main hair transplant techniques are FUT & FUE, but this clinic claims to offer a new technique called Direct Hair Implantation (DHI). According to their site, "Direct Hair Implantation is the world's best hair transplant technique. It is powered by the triple synergy - technology, teamwork, and technique - and it is offered exclusively by DHI Global Medical Group." Is anyone familiar with this technique and/or this clinic?

I underwent a hair transplant on past April by DHI technique and during my return journey to my country, my forehead collided with a hard metal surface with a strong shock, but the shock did not touch the implanted hair and there was no bleeding on my scalp but the shock only caused a small tumour above my right eye. I underwent the procedure 2 months and one week ago and there exist few dots on my head for hairs about to appear especially on the frontline. I am afraid if the shock might have caused a damage as long as the remarkable growth of hair has not begun yet. Was this shock harmful?

Hello, I am swimming in the huge seaside of clinics out there and more I ask more I realize I don’t know. Now is the new topic I found a clinic that does Fue and DHI, DHI cost 500 euros more does anybody know why? I read very interesting thing about the DHI which supposed to garante a better surviving rate of the graft . Also it supposed to give more control regarding the direction and deep ness and density which make the whole procedure easier right ? So why is it more expensive? what is the dark side of the DHI? Thank you massimo

Dr Viral Desai Reviews
paras.tyagi posted a topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
Today, I would like to tell you about my experience with Dr Viral Desai and share some of facts, which will give you a clear idea about the qualification he has and the experience he holds in the field of plastic and cosmetic surgery as well as in the hair restoration treatment DHI (Direct Hair Implant). Many people have made a misconception in their mind that FUE is like DHI, but it's not. The best part about DHI is it’s Just one day process, in fact, it takes less than 5 hours for the treatment. After the surgery is done the patient can go back to his or her home. During the process, you won't feel any pain and can do anything you want to like talk to your friends, watch Tv, work on your laptop etc. I can tell you this because I went through the treatment and the experience was amazing Coming back to the topic, Dr Viral Desai awarded with the National Icon in Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery in 2010 is one of the famous specialists for plastic and restorative medical procedure and in addition, he is the author of DHI Hair Transplant method in India. Holding an experience of 18 years and certified for the Aesthetic and Cosmetic specialist, Plastic Surgeon, Reconstructive Surgeon Pioneer originator Medical Director DHI India, CPLSS, Sarla Hospital and Desai Hospital Pvt Ltd. Dr Viral Desai since his adolescence constantly longed for turning into the best specialist. He finished his MBBS from Lokmanya Tilak Municipal Medical College, Sion. After which joined residency in General Surgery and Oncosurgery at Tata Hospital, KEM Hospital, and Cooper Hospital, from there on he took up the Super-Speciality in Plastic Surgery (M.S.) course at Sir J. J. Gathering of Hospitals, Mumbai. Dr Viral Desai speaks with his patients to know the what they require. He screens his patients and tells his patients if the desires they have made are reasonable. He gives a total data about the methodology to be taken after for the further treatment. After knowing and experiencing the same conditions I can say that the false statements made by some jealous people for him are not good If you had any problem with the treatment, one should again visit the doctor not start complaining about him online. So, if there is someone who is looking for the doctor for his hair restoration or for any hair related problems I would recommend you, Dr Viral Desai, and if you want to know more about him you can -
Hi All, I am new to the forum and am writing to share with you my plan for tackling hair loss and request your advice/views. I am a 29 yo male and I have been suffering from hair loss for a few years. Hair was never one of my strengths, I think that my density has always been average and my hair is quite thin. However, thinning was very minimal till a couple of years back, so it was unnoticeable in reality. In the last couple of years things changed: I have lost a substantial amount of hair on the top of my head - see pics attached. What may be important to mention is that I am losing hair from a broad area, however I am not 'bald' anywhere yet, i.e. my hairline has not moved, my crown is not worse than other parts. Looking at Norwood types, it seems to me that, when the loss gets worse, it may fit with the 5 type. I have been on Minoxidil for a while, although started applying it consistently only a few months ago. I think it helps, as it has stopped shedding lately, but I know it will not be able to produce the improvement I am looking for without surgery. Also, let me point out that I am negative to taking propecia - after doing some research I recognise that it helps, however I am not willing to risk experiencing the side effects. So here is the plan: looking to book a FUE for around 2000 grafts. I hope that this will cover quite well for a few years, while it will leave a good amount of extra hair in the donor area for future procedures, if required. Hopefully, in a few years hair cloning will also be available, which could be a game changer! In terms of my budget, I am looking at around 2 euro per graft that would translate to ?4,000. If I find someone exceptional, I may consider to go up to 15% more, but I don't see the point in paying more. Now to the point: while I am based in London, I am originally from Greece. I reached out to my network to see whether there are any good doctors / clinics over there and a few friends, who are doctors, pointed me to DHI. Their price is very reasonable and a couple of people who tried them were pleased with the result. However, I have not been able to find a lot of feedback online on them and looking for more info before making a decision. If I don't go with DHI, I am thinking to make contact with the following, who have gathered a lot of positive comments in various forums: Erdogan, Rahal, Demirsoy, Doganay, Bhatti, Bisanga, Lorenzo, Lupanzula, Hasson & Wong Could you please advise: 1/ do you have any info on DHI or other Greek clinics / doctors you would suggest? 2/ given the info I have provided above (procedure, no of grafts, budget etc.), who would you suggest from the above list? 3/ if you were in my shoes, would you do anything differently and, if yes, why? Any advice will be much appreciated! Kind regards, Andy
