Is it normal? Dear Loic73000, Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us. Every patient has a progress on a different pace, so you too. The hair is developing until the 15th month post op. So it means that we are almost in the middle of the way. At the moment the only option for us is to wait and nourish the scalp and hair. After the 7th month post op we expect more growth and gradually completing the coverage. We will stay in touch and be there for you all through the process.

Is it normal? Based on this you had more hair in the mid scalp and crown pre op, for 5000 grafts and your starting point you should be looking at a full head of hair, campare this to eugenix and bruno ferreira in this forum to see the difference, do you have any recent pictures?

Regular Member Jimmy58 Posted April 22, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2022 It seems it’s picking up better. I also had improvements on months 8 and 9 post surgery. You will actually feel “changes” until 12/15 months from the HT’s initial day, and particularly in the hair texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Z-- Posted June 24, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted June 24, 2022 Any updates? Should be around month 9 and very clear if the hairs have grown in. Fingers crossed for you mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE TRUTH Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Waw Loic.... I gotta say I was extremely worried for you.... Koray's nurses have lots of really really bad results here and on the french hairloss forum too... I guess you know. They are one of the worst and most expensive hairmills out there. Your situation at 7 months was heartbreaking and highly worrisome... I was thinking you were gonna be one of those botched jobs from ASMED. But thanks God turned out fine. 🙏 Now if I had to judge your final result. It' not a spectacular result. You should have had close to a full head of hair with your degree of baldness and the number of grafts used. With ASMED the definition of a good result is not getting botched/overharvested in the first place and having at least SOME graft survival in the recipient area. Happy end. Just curiously did you get back on oral minoxidil ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Ryan Daniel Posted July 5, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted July 5, 2022 @Loic75300 The most important thing is that your hairline is soft and natural. It's not easy fixing a pluggy hairline Everything else behind it can be thickened or added with more density Good luck sir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curiously did you get back on oral minoxidil ? OP did mention he chose Option A, where—as I learned during my e-consultation with the clinic—Dr. Erdogan performs the entire procedure himself. It's more expensive than Options B and C (where the technicians have variable amounts of more involvement), but it's the only possible worthwhile avenue with ASMED. I was seriously considering him when vetting Turkey surgeons, but I ultimately balked at that because of all the horror stories I read on this board. Granted, most of those patients probably chose the cheaper options where the technicians did the delicate surgical work, but I'd also suspect Erdogan himself has been losing his touch after selling out and transforming his clinic into a hair mill. @Loic75300Those are some encouraging results overall, and I'll be eager to see how it finishes shaping out (there's still 2-6 more months of potential improvement). Maybe not a perfect outcome when it's all said and done, but not a colossal waste of grafts, either. I'm sure you still have enough donor grafts left for further touch-ups; however, I'd definitely look at other options than ASMED (or Turkey for that matter) for corrective procedures.

Are you sure that’s an option? Erdogan has never done graft harvesting at least in the last 5-7 years. It’s all been outsourced to techs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The run of the mill basically just walks around. He goes from one room to another. Takes pictures. Gives thumbs up to everyone ! The GOAT of botched job is very busy attending conferences worldwide and "FUE workshops" while his teams of nurses are "operating" on 8 patients at the same time. 😂😂😂 Edited July 9, 2022 by Let me botch you 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
