Senior Member Britanium Posted February 17, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 17, 2022 So many “cheapest best Turkey please” posts, totally understand affordable clinics but Turkey isn’t the epicentre for the best Transplants/Drs which is most peoples perception. So first we try and educate them on location, then next we try and explain that cost is going to be a very different if they actually want a quality clinic/Dr and not a hairmill/chain clinic. It can be very frustrating sometimes, a lot of people take convincing of either/both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While i appreciate that the USA, UK etc. are on the pricier end and that people could be on a budget. There are options out there that can do competent work if you are willing to travel, but also just budget a little more. People don't mind throwing down $1k on a new iPhone yearly on a payment plan but somehow putting money aside each month and starting medication is too much effort. I think ultimately you can't quick fix hair loss. People unfortunately in the Amazon Prime era want instant results and that's not how things work. Yet. And yes hair transplants are very rarely “one and done” and become pretty impossible if a donor area has been decimated/over harvested. So people going cheaper for the first procedure rarely works out. Asli Tarcan are synonymous with this and the information is out there, even on their own FB reviews !

I think even if we got the miracle of unlimited hair grafts, the amount of horror stories we hear or botched angles, pluggy looks, cobbled edges etc. will just skyrocket. Even dare i say permanent shock loss of existing hair when people go to these horror mills and try chase higher density than they natively were born with too. Follow my first Hair Transplant Journey!

Senior Member Britanium Posted February 17, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 17, 2022 Years ago the damage was done mostly by way of FUT, wide scars, uneven, too high, badly placed etc. the rest of the donor area managed to escape. These days it’s more than likely the whole donor area and also outside the “safe” zone will be damaged/decimated/over harvested. So FUE can make it game over in one session. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what scares me so much in FUE, on the one hand it's a blessing if it's done well, on the other hand it's a curse if it's done badly, because the bad result will be scattered all over the back of the head, making it harder to hide and rapier. If you get a bad result, FUT is the preferred method because it will be easier to fix and only a small part of your head will be damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like some length to your hair on the sides and back then you will usually be better off in the long run with FUT.

Senior Member RTC Posted March 16, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 16, 2022 These guys absolutely decimated my donor area and did a terrible job on the front of my head.. I'm having to spend thousands and thousands just to try and clean up their mess. They are liars and con artists, and I only hope one day I can get my own back on them. 1 Hattingen September 2023 - Punchouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a 5 minute 'consultation', promised me MAXIMUM coverage (which at the time I stupidly thought was the thing to do), and proceeded to take 5000 grafts out. The clinic was unhygienic, the 'technicians' were girls who didn't talk English and blabbered the whole operation. There was no doctor involvement whatsoever. Annoying 'translators' walking in and out distracting the technicians, flirting and talking rubbish presumably. Just garbage professionalism all round. They were friendly though My donor area was completely decimated (see my thread) and my hair has large holes above each temple. Hairline is pluggy and sparse. When I contacted them, they kept saying give it a few months, it might get better! It didn't. Their '1 year warranty' didn't mean a thing either, when I asked for money back they just ignored me. I left two scathing reviews on Google and they accused me first of not being a patient there, then accused me of previously working for them and being fired for stealing patient information lol. Absolute scum, scam artists and I hope they go bust very very soon. 2 1 Hattingen September 2023 - Punchouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE TRUTH Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Asli Tarcan is an absolute shame to the hairloss community. I hope Kevin Mann will expose and ruin all those hairmills one day (aslitarcans, asmed, aisha hair etc...) The same way he exposed the blüdflow scammers from Hairguard and Rob English's galea aponeurotica theories.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surgery is complex, and complications can arise even with the best surgeons. Surgery is not like buying a car, so there’s no warranties or guarantees. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

His results are average at best...His involvement in surgeries is minimal and outsources a lot to nurses...Also he is a fan of the ARTAS robot which in my opinion does a lot more harm than good... So yeah I can't disagree with you... The Mann said it himself. He was very lucky to get a decent result and he didn't research at all back then... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true... Derek and Kevin are incredibly knowledgable when it comes to pharmacology but they lack knowledge on transplants. That said, I know Kevin is a visitor of the forum. Not sure about Derek though. MPMD caught his hairloss very early so he likely won't need a hair transplant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
