Regular Member kiokbs Posted August 18, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted August 18, 2020 (edited) Hey guys i am 25 years old facing with baldness since my very first 20’s but cant’ say it’s too aggressive hair losing. Using finasteride for last 1,5 years with no side effects . After researching hairtransplant for 3 years feeling like i ve made right decision choosing Dr. Pekiner, and hope i will be happy at the end of process. From my pics dr. estimated among 1500 to 2000 grafts will be transplanted to the temples and frontal area. Now it’s the day for me that i have been waiting for a while, will feed you guys up after the surgery. Hello everybody today the surgery has been completed and need to tell you i really appreciate Mr.Pekiner's politeness and decent working style. I was already feeling well confident when i enter his clinic then felt better and better after all their service . After discussing hairline dr. planned about 2000 grafts including (right and left temples) through 2 days 2012 grafts have been transplanted and hair per graft is 2.65 which Dr.Pekiner said higher than average. Now i'm very satisfied with hairline and density. Hope gonna be more satisfied after the transplanted grafts get grown successfully. Some pics with long hair couple months earlier to surgery, before the surgery and post surgery. Thanks in advance for all your comments, gonna keep this post updated as much as i can.

Senior Member BjornBorg Posted August 19, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 19, 2020 Good luck! Will follow your journey. You need to stay on fin because you were probably headed to baldness in your 30's. My results - 2486 grafts FUE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azzer100 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Good luck man!, just got back from Dr Pekiner clinic the week before having had 1500 - had 3 HT's before all in Europe and have to say Dr Pekiner experience has been second to none! happy growing, sure results will be great!

Senior Member giegnosiganoe Posted August 20, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 20, 2020 Seems like you only have minor loss, so this should be a great result and you should be good long-term as long as you stay on the DHT blocker. I find it interesting that Dr Pekiner only does 1000 grafts a day at most. Do you know why that is? Clinics in the US do FUE over a single day, even with 1500-2500 grafts. What was the timeline like for each day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for good wishes dude, i hope so. hey Actually the way he does ht made me choose him, one another in Ankara/Turkey has been doing same style(Dr. Keser) and they both have great results. Dr. Kaan Pekiner only works with one patient/ 1000 grafts a day. First day it started about 9 am and lasted around 4.30 pm, second day it was 8 am to 5 pm. Roughly i guess that style provides him to be working more carefully. Edited August 20, 2020 by kiokbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Also, interesting that he filled in your temple points. It looks like you had some retrograde loss in that area? I might need the same. I'm curious how it'll grow out for you.

Senior Member jimcraig152 Posted August 24, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2020 Geez. I am jealous. Your doctor did a fantastic job. I am in my 5th week post recovery and I didn't look as good as you do now when I was at that point in the process. Just look at all that placement randomness and density. Look at that homogenous symmetrical extraction from the donor site. And most importantly, look at the work that was placed into replicating a natural hairline (my surgeon just made a straight line, then added dangling jaggies). Congrats! Look forward to seeing your results! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing the work done on you against mine from 4 weeks ago is like a Da Vinci painting to grafitti. Congrats man.

Why is it that I can immediately identify Dr. Dieps work based on that "questionable" placement of grafts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle A-Symmetry and the angular closings are nothing short of perfect. Look after yourself and your new grafts during the next 8-12 months and you will both look and feel like a new man. Congratulations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
