Senior Member alex84 Posted September 27, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted September 27, 2020 This is my third HT after my first HT which was a horrible experience, and a second one which was a solid result but it needed a little touch up. It lacked some density in the frontal third and after two and a half years some of my original hairs fell of so i decided to go for a 3rd op with dr. Keser. Doctor Keser is highly praised as an excellent doctor, with an amazing result, great yield of growth and great density so I decided to go with him considering that this is my last HT because my donor is totally depleted. It was weak to start with, also my hair is very thin, and my first Ht was horrible and destroyed a big part of my donor. For my type of donor, manual punch should have been first and only choice. Info about the procedure: -1000 grafts ht with dr. Keser (max. that the doctor was comfortable extracting, even do I asked for more) -two day operation, 4 day/3 nights stay in Ankara -area of coverage: hair line and temples -extraction: manual, all done by doctor Keser -implantation: Pen ?, all done by doctor Keser -very professional; the op was completely painless (except for the anesthetic), it was running smoothly with no stopping, consultations before every part of the procedure, assistant/translator was present at all time all time during the operation -the receiving area very clean, almost no bleeding after, graft placement looks excellent, done as i requested, density very good -donor area with almost no bleeding, used the only remaining grafts above the harvested part of the donor -first day after th op no swelling, second and third day big swelling of the face Now i just need to wait and see, but for now it looks very good and clean for three days after the surgery Dr. Keser photos before, shaved and after: 1st HT FUE Sante Plus Hospital (Istanbul), cca 1000 grafts (they said 3000), Results-extremely bad 2nd HT FUE operation/repair at AHD, Dr. Hakan Doganay, 2590 grafts, Results-good 3rd HT FUE operation/repair at DermaPlast, Dr. Muttalip Keser, 1000 grafts, Results-to be seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member giegnosiganoe Posted September 29, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) Looks great. I have similar hair quality so I'm looking forward to your results. Are you on any medication? Also, do you know if Keser was using magnification when he did the extractions? I've heard that he doesn't.

I've heard that he doesn't. Thx, i think so too. About hair quality and type of hair loss, yes it was difficult for me to find similar cases to compare. Currently no. I just started Fin yesterday, after 6 months break. I took Fin for two years and then I stopped, no big side effects, but some smaller ones. I ll use fin for a few months because of shock loss, that is my first concern now. If i dont lose any of my original hair this HT will be a success. I used vitamins but i stopped taking them, now I ll start again. I am not sure but i think he did have magnification glass. 1st HT FUE Sante Plus Hospital (Istanbul), cca 1000 grafts (they said 3000), Results-extremely bad 2nd HT FUE operation/repair at AHD, Dr. Hakan Doganay, 2590 grafts, Results-good 3rd HT FUE operation/repair at DermaPlast, Dr. Muttalip Keser, 1000 grafts, Results-to be seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member ciaus Posted October 3, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted October 3, 2020 (edited) Impressive healing and good design, you should have a great result. You have a cool looking scar too, like a viking tattoo. If I use my cloud gazing vision I'd say it looks like.... an eagle or pterodactyl landing on a perch! -Hope there's no emotionally charged event that lead up to that and it was just typical rough housing gone bad.

You made me laugh so hard with your comment, you have such a vivid imagination. I went and googled that shape because it reminded me of something and I found it to be a triskelion, those three legs going in a circle. I found it to be the mark was used by the king of Sicily who lived in Syracuse 400 bc. Ridiculous thing is that even do i am from Croatia i was born, on Sicily, in Syracuse Maybe i am the reincarnation of that king but if that is so why do I have such bad hair while he has very thick hair in that coin?
