Regular Member windyday Posted February 24, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted February 24, 2016 Hi everyone After suffering from hair loss from an early age i finally decided to do something about it and go a for an fue HT. i started losing my hair around 5-6 years(26 years old now).i decided to go with Dr erkan based on quality, reviews and price etc. i was going to make a longer post detailing everything but i would be repeating what others have said. if you would like step by step guide on how the procedure is carried out please read VectorH's thread. The worst part of the experience for me was the swelling, i looked like a different person for about a week but once that has gone you can go with with your normal life.i did get some funny looks travelling back but you will notice plenty of people walking around the airport with headbands. sleeping can be a little tricky the first few days. i am really happy with the doctor, nurses and the translator/coordinator(muzzafar) who made me feel that i was in safe hands. special thanks to Clemens who is still answering my random questions through whatsapp post op. i will try to update the thread every couple of weeks so stay tuned for updates. if anyone has questions please feel free to ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member windyday Posted March 20, 2016 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 20, 2016 hi guys its been about 5 weeks since my procedure and i would like to post some updated pictures. shedding started around 2 weeks and at this point i have lost most of the transplanted hair. couple of concerns that i have at this point are that the feeling in my recipient area has not returned 100%. Also my sides have become quite thin, doesn't look as bad when i have shorter hair. comments welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member windyday Posted May 17, 2016 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 17, 2016 i just past the 3 month mark. Not sure how i feel about the results so far to be honest. i am disappointed with how my donor area looks at the moment. over harvested? pictures below, would love some feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member johnny2000 Posted May 17, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted May 17, 2016 I Can see the thinning in the donor Area. It looks like shockloss combined with grafts taken out. I mean, you do have less hair in the donor than before the HT obviesly, because they took Them out, but i still Think it looks to thin in donor area. It shouldnt look that thin with that number of grafts IMO. Reciepted area looks ok, clearly you have some sort of hairline now allthough its still thin but in 2-3 Month it should grow thicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member laughnlearn Posted May 18, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted May 18, 2016 It doesn't look over-harvested...to me it looks normal acutally but thats just my opinion. I think you should give it sometime and am sure in 3 months time you won't even notice the difference pre-op. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member windyday Posted November 7, 2016 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 7, 2016 hi guys sorry i have not been able to post an update in awhile but was not going to let this thread die without posting some results. it will be 9 months since my precedure in about a week.
