Mitchi Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Hi everyone I went to Istanbul, Turkey almost 5 months ago to have a hairtransplant. I came across this site and realised there aren't any threads about the clinic I've went with, therefore I am now making a new thread to show my hair growth journey I hope you will follow my journey and give me you guys' opinion and feedback. Also if yourself are waiting patiently for your own hair growth we can ask each other questions. 08/09-22 this is when I got my hairs implanted 12 days later: 1 month: 12 weeks: 2 months: 3 months: 4 months: I will keep posting as the months progress. Good day to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good day to everyone! Its difficult to say anything as of now, its only 4 months, but I hope you will get a good result. Do you have any info on the clinic? Can you tell us which Dr operated on you? Only technicians? Their Google reviews is not pleasing to read, most of the people call them scammers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member ITA Posted January 30, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Another of the pseudo-clinics in Turkey, one of those gangs of improvised who rent rooms in large Istanbul hospitals or in private clinics and have young trainees perform the procedures completely, who perhaps were the waiters or taxi drivers the day before.

They had someone that they called the leader of the Team, who which performed the hairline and the edges but had 2 other assistants (technicians yes) who did the filling with the newest technology which they called it. I did realise the google reviews, but I have hope since they were very polite and I actually had them recommended... Since the 4 month mark I am now here: Almost 5 months What do you think? good day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you guys saying it out from the pictures or alone from the clinics reviews? I see a lot of growth from month 4 to month 5 but you are the experts. Thank you for letting me know your opinion.

From the pics, I see that there are several double and multiple grafts in the hairline, a hair transplant is not evaluated only on the basis of regrowth.

Senior Member ITA Posted February 6, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 6, 2022 @MitchiI advise you to start right now to check which surgeon you will have to rely on for your repair procedure (here on the forum there are good ones), it is not as says @FUT4000 also in 7 months the multiple grafts will be visible in hairline , it will not improve. Sorry if I'm so direct, but unfortunately these are the consequences of those who go to these pseudo-clinics in Turkey, without having done long research first, you are not the first and unfortunately you will not even be the last, the important thing is that you manage to solve your problem eventually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member HappyMan2021 Posted February 6, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 6, 2022 3500 grafts seems like it would be more than enough, an abundant and generous amount of grafts to cover the area worked on. The lack of density IMO is due to poor yield. Who knows, crazier things have happened, maybe you are a late grower and you will see it all grow in in Months 6 or 7. However.....I give it 70% chance you will not see significantly more density and you will need a repair. As @Egy says, no harm in being prudent and start rolling on repair consults now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said before, if there are multiple grafts and hair with a thick shaft in hairline (because in these places they do not use microscopes to select the grafts) evident at 5 months, they will remain there even in seven months, they will not disappear unfortunately, it may have further regrowth, but the transplant will be unnatural and obvious, he will have the so-called "doll effect". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
