Great hairline and coverage in only 7 months. The grafts are well distributed around the balding zone. Manual FUE indeed has higher successful rate than motorized. I really wish other recommended clinics switch to manual in order to reach to this success of yielding. Well done Dr. Erdogan :-)

[Mickey85]

Spectactular.

[Spanker]

Good result. I do favor a little more of an irregular hairline.

[TakingThePlunge]

Beautiful work!

[Loags79]

Great hair growth superb work.

The hairline (as spanker eluded to) is a bit harsh, some irregularity would've nailed this HT

[Sean]

For the amount of scalp covered, this result yielded well.

[KO]

Are before pics wet?

[chrisdav]

I have been impressed with Dr Erdogan's work - it is excellent. However, I have noticed that a lot of pre op pictures are taken with damp/wet hair.

I agree with you on this one. ASMED clinic should present Pre Op dry hair photos in their posted results otherwise its quite misleading. Wet/Dry hair is a big difference in density illusion.

Manual FUE indeed has higher successful rate than motorized.

 

If by “successful rate” you mean graft survival rate, I haven't seen that to be the case -- anecdotally or quantifiably -- when comparing the body of work posted here by top FUE docs and their patients.

Good result. I do favor a little more of an irregular hairline.

 

I’m so glad Spanker noted this (and that Loags79 seconded it). I thought maybe I was bonkers for thinking that Dr. Erdogan’s frontal hairline work, although usually impressively densely packed, can appear somewhat harsh/lacking in irregularity in a way that can say “transplant." I suppose it is just a different aesthetic, but I will say that my girlfriend, who is much less ht-photo saturated than I am, has noticed the same thing.

[Lateatnight]

That's my concern too. I'd like to see some irregularity in Koray's hairline, since i'm thinking about a procedure and he's one of my favourite.

Maybe someone who had experience with him knows how it works the design process.

I'd like to know if he decides or the patient does.

? Great final result but there are some doubts.

The initial photos are over exposured and under contrasted

Final photos are under exposed and over contrasted and light and white balance is way way different.

 

This photo example is poor.. Lacking standardization. Clinic presentations really need to be a lot better than this, its borderline deceptive.

^Typical for this clinic.

You can find the same tricks in these threads:

http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/176798-dr-koray-erdogan-2620-grafts-fue.html

 

 

Even his patients use the same tricks somehow

I think it is unfair to all respected coalition surgeons here, who post honestly..

 

I would ask him "how he can be so sure about the total graft capacity of donor areas (without removing the grafts)". If there is 7500 total capacity, with which punch? 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm or 0.9 mm? It can not be the same with either of them. But, surely there will be no answer as usual. I think Dr. Koray considers that we are all stupids.

[garethbale]

just totally wrong and a massive slap in the face to clinics who posy dry before pictures and ones with similar (not contrasting) lighting

 

have been really turned off by this clinic

Dear Forum users,

 

 

We have a lot of respect for this community so here's some prompt explanation for the light difference of these pictures.

 

The first set (before the operation) was taken in our old clinic, always here in Istanbul, by using professional cameras and light.

 

The second set of pictures. "7 months and half after the operation", published on page 1, was sent by the patient himself. We suppose the pictures were taken using the camera of his mobile phone.

 

The last set of pictures (the final result) has been taken 12 months after the surgery during our recent consultation in Paris, by using our professional camera and lights. We aimed to take the most realistic pictures (and, believe it or not, they are as this is exactly the appearance of the patient) but the environmental light was too much different than the one of the old clinic, therefore it was impossible to exactly replicate the same conditions.

 

Nevertheless, we believe the given pictures and information are detailed and clear enough to make a good comparison just by doing an attentive observation.

In any case, to avoid any kind of doubt, we will be doing our best efforts to propose an even clearer documentation.

 

We built a very strong reputation for our clinic worldwide by working in a clear and honest way, so we feel sorry if we gave a negative feeling in this occasion.

 

 

Best Regards

Thank you for taking the time to respond. I believe Dr Erdogan does good work, but we hope to see improved documentation in the future.

Thanks Dr, honesty always wins, sooner or later, keep it coming. Peace time now, let's see the others.... No exceptions..
