jerseyman Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Hello All, I came accross this forum recently (after my hair transplant was already done in Turkey) and I thought it could be helpful to share my experience and progress and get your feedback. I'm currently on day 13 after my operation. I have been taking pictures since the operation, so let me know if I should share more to get your feedback. About myself: I'm Turkish/American from New Jersey, just graduated from college and finally decided to get my hair done. I was referred to Dr Ulusan in Turkey. Someone from my family had an operation done with her and recommended her because she performed his entire operation. I actually had no idea about what you guys call "hair mills" in Turkey until I came accross this forum. It was a relief though, because my operation was actually done by a real surgeon. I just did not know the importance and rarity of that in Turkey. My operation: Doctor first gave me a consultation via video call with her translator/consultant before I flied to Turkey. At the clinic, we also re-visited my expectations and we agreed on the hairline design and the density planning together. I'm open for your feedbackand really hope that I get my old curly hair back Pictures taken on my operation day and during my stay there: Picture from today (day 13): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseyman Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 Yes. The doctor extracted the grafts from the back of my head. I think she was using a motor tool. During that time her assistants were counting and categorizing the grafts. They kept telling the count of single and multiple grafts to the doctor. Doctor opened the new channels after that. In the end, nurses joined and started helping her insert the grafts. It was a long and tiring day for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
