Senior Member HG1 Posted February 27, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 27, 2018 Hg1, I echo the sentiments and comments of our other members… You’re looking great so far and you will continue to see growth and exceptionally well in the coming months. I believe he will be very satisfied with everything grows in completely. Hardest part has passed, now each month or even couple weeks, you may notice changes in the mirror or at least if you take side-by-side pictures. I’m looking forward to seeing the final results at maturation. Best wishes, Bill Thanks Bill. To be honest, I haven't found it that tough really. Others on here have really struggled, which is a shame. At times around the 6 week mark, it was a bit difficult. It's amazing how the hair really kicks in, in such a short period. Dr Erdogan did say after inspecting my hair - I would get a great result, just hope he's right. Looking forward to the next few months. The HT has been a truly life changing event for me. 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

I love the hairline design you chose! Can't wait to see more updates sooon! Congratulations again!! Thanks Luke. I did think the hairline was a little low even up to a few weeks ago. Now the hairline hairs have come to life, it does look great (in my opinion). It's amazing how a couple of weeks makes such a difference. I have been following your journey also.

Senior Member HG1 Posted March 27, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted March 27, 2018 Hi Guys, Well it's 5 months and one day since the HT. Growth again this month has been good. The pictures aren't the best, but you can see the hairline is now strong. I had it cut - shaved to 3mm on sides and back and cut with scissors on top (as per Asmeds guidelines). It looks much better in person rather than in the pictures. The hairline is mostly single hair grafts, just a few that are multi hair. When looking very closely there are a lot of fine hairs still coming through. Still very pleased, but looking forward to even more growth and maturing of the new hair. Pinkness to the scalp is still evident, but is improving. Numbness wise, almost back to normal. I'm going to keep it short until 6 months, when I will start to grow it out. Any comments welcome. No idea why pictures upload upside down :confused: 1 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

Senior Member HG1 Posted April 13, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted April 13, 2018 Hi Guys, Just thought I would give a quick update on my progress. Today is Week 24 post HT (5.5 months). I've been keeping the hair short to help blend the new transplanted hair and the existing. The good news is the numbness to the recipient area has finally gone. The area is still a little pink in colour, this is only evident after a trim. The temple areas which were lagging have caught up with the hairline almost. Got a couple of small areas just behind the hairline that look slightly thin (about half the size of a small finger nail), but under a good light there are small fine hairs growing in these patches. I will post pictures at 6 months - in 2 weeks time. The main reason really for my posting is to express how happy I feel with my new look. My confidence is at an all time high. Its great to think I potentially have another 6 months of improvement to come. I would urge anyone who is debating a HT to get your research done and go for it. I feel I wasted 5 years sitting on the fence. 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

Senior Member HG1 Posted April 27, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted April 27, 2018 Hi guys, Just a quick update. Well its 6 months today, I left Instanbul after my HT Op with Asmed. The last four weeks have seen steady improvement, however not as noticeable as the previous couple of months. Hopefully density will improve over the next 6 months as well as the hair texture. I'm very happy so far, but will be happier still with further density improvement. I have enclosed pictures at Pre Op, 3 months and 6 months. I'm going to grow the hair out on top now to see how it looks. No idea why the pictures keep changing their orientation :confused: 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

Senior Member HG1 Posted April 28, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted April 28, 2018 Hi guys, thanks for your thoughts. Just wanted to add my representative, the lovely Sema was in touch yesterday. She wanted pictures for Dr Koray to review. She has been in touch on a regular basis - checking on how I'm doing. Just proves to me what a reputable outfit Asmed are, and the care doesn't end when you fly home. Been a bit of criticism on here directed towards Asmed lately, they were fantastic to me during my time with them and in hindsight I would have still chose them. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and I respect that, 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

Senior Member HG1 Posted May 26, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted May 26, 2018 Hi guys, Well its 7 months today since my HT with Asmed in Turkey. Not a massive change since last month. However I feel the hair is thickening up and there are still new hairs appearing. With having such a surge at 3 to 4 months things feel like they have slowed down progress wise. I have continued to keep it short, but will try and resist the temptation to trim it. All in all very happy with where I am. Hopefully the coming months will see an increase in density and thickness. In my mind I don't feel like a balding 50 something and my confidence increases month by month. The hair looks better in real life than in the photos. In the pictures I'm next to a window and under a bright light. As stated before, anyone sat on the fence debating whether to have a HT, do your research and get it done. 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

I found your thread entertaining and insightful and I'm delighted with your satisfaction. I just sent an email to request information with my photos attached. Was Koray the doctor? Who Erdogan and Umat are, other doctors at Asmed? How much did you pay? Your thread is a really good reading so thanks and don't stop. I assume that Deb1982, Justjax and Yaz89 chose Asmed as well, is that right? Where are their threads?

If you use the search function you just tap in the name of the persons thread you want to read about. The guys you listed made my mind up on choosing Asmed, as their results are almost always excellent. Dr Koray is the only Dr involved, together with his team. Dr Koray was great, very passionate and professional as were the rest of the team. I paid 2.5 Euros per graft, which included hotel, transfers, food at the clinic and all the after care kit. Well worth it in my opinion. I can say even at this stage it has been life changing. Do your research and get it booked my friend. 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.
