You look great man. Big improvement. I’ll be honest I can’t really sense your excitement from your post. What else are you looking for? more density?

Thanks, I'm a cool MF so I don't tend to get too hyped ?. Seriously I'm over the moon and so pleased with where I am and choice of clinic. Yes looking for more density, which should improve as the hair calibre improves. I've got more hair than I had 25 years ago, so have got to be pleased.

Congratulations. You came a long way and look much better than before and this is what its all about.

What do the people say you haven't seens for a long time? "New haircut" ?

Thanks for your comments. Just need to get the face sorted Now ?

Had a few people ask if I've lost weight and have I dyed my hair. I think a few people have clicked that I've had work done, but no one has asked me outright. Vast majority of people know nothing about HT's, so don't know the tell tale signs.

Hi guys, apologies - not been on the forum for a while, been busy with other commitments. Just thought I would chuck a few pictures in there as I see a lot of criticism has been aimed at Asmed recently - (most unjustified in my opinion)I will do a full update on 26/10/18, which marks my 12 months since the Op.

All I would add is, a HT is an illusion not a miracle. Those who think they are getting back what they had at 18 will be disappointed. Any comments welcome on my progress.

I'm really, really happy for you, mate :)

Your look is incredible. Nobody would tell you faced a HT and that is the very evidence of an excellent result.

Enjoy it! :)

Dude, make sure to have a say in your hairline design. Be very specific so you can both work and create that perfect hairline for you. 

Another thing is, just relax. Honestly it isn’t so bad. Trust your surgeon and his team. Don’t overthink anything or else it will make you go nuts.

When you are done, follow their instructions perfectly. I kind of didn’t and had a slight swelling on my face. Nothing bad, but I could have avoided that if I were to follow their instructions precisely.

good luck and keep us posted

Hi guys, well its been a year since my HT with Asmed in Turkey. What a year it's been, all ups and no downs regarding the hair. I wanted to voice a few observations on the HT game, note observations not criticisms.

Anyone considering a HT must accept it's an illusion, you will never get the hair back you once had. You actually will probably end up with less hair than pre Op. The hair looks best with a quality cut cut, correct styling. It can also be made to look less flattering by doing the opposite. Please please please wait the full 12 months before announcing that the HT is a failure, I personally expect further improvement in mine for another 6 months. It amazes me how people compare themselves to others, we are all different with so many variables., focus on yourself and don't panic if someone else seems further ahead. I also think some people on the forum have fallen into the trap body builders can fall into. I.e. Looking in the mirror and only seeing faults, when 99.9999% of people would say they would die for that body builders body. 

I think I've had a really good result so far, I would have taken it 12 months ago. I would like more density and my crown could do with maybe 500 grafts dropping in, but all in all I'm content. I would not have changed a thing other than maybe having the additional grafts placed in the crown. I think the hairline is age appropriate as is the temple recession. Yes there's a few doubles in the hairline, but ha ho who gives a f**k. Most people don't even know the difference between grafts and hairs ( few on here as well). Asmed has been getting a lot of criticism lately, personally feel it's the snowball effect. When I was researching another clinic was getting the same, they are hardly mentioned now. I can't fault Asmed, the work, care, price and result were great. I'm happy and that's all that matters. 

Anyway, will update again at 18 months. Good luck to all of you guys in the process of researching, booking or recovering from a HT. few pics enclosed, I need a haircut so bad!IMG_3726.thumb.JPG.2c02801abc49afa105b58e8459e85194.JPGIMG_3722.thumb.JPG.0158743a1b1274d56d8f83c70bda3108.JPGIMG_3723.thumb.JPG.29fbb4400fb333e2eacb4a78163f9534.JPGIMG_3727.thumb.JPG.a378278b789bded5eb1c0ebbda95f837.JPGIMG_3724.thumb.JPG.559cae16b0f881c5b60981a83f9f06fa.JPGIMG_3725.thumb.JPG.965ac28993822761bfda30e1d6887c58.JPGIMG_3729.thumb.JPG.c5dbd92e272dd408975a0fff05f16cb9.JPGIMG_3730.thumb.JPG.78f4fb2216861ad33e7605a7bec298dd.JPG9584f05a-a8e0-4000-8923-c2a13eefb80d.thumb.jpg.c96c7708f19fb0fbf1762621225a754a.jpg_1.thumb.JPG.2e80d03b98568a1f6ef6c0182d98c3e7.JPG
