Polica Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Hello everyone! I would like to present my experience with Dr Demirsoy, since there has not been enough information on the forum about his work. Actually there are dozens of reviews, however some of the most interesting are not complete. I am 31 years old, have been losing hair since 22-23. As seen from the pictures the hair loss was maybe not that aggressive at this point and probably could have been halted by medications, however I didn't like to play with my hormones, nor were enough disciplined to use minoxidil every day, so I opted for hair transplant surgery. I have to say that all process was very professional on the part of Doctor and his assistant Musafer. Doctor doesn't speak English so the all communication and organization goes through his assistant Musafer, who is very attentive and helpful guy. Before the surgery doctor inspected my hair and asked me about my expectations. During the first contact with the clinic they quoted me with 3000-3500 grafts, however I didn't want to do more than 3000 grafts as I am aware that my hair loss will continue. So after the consultation with the doctor, we agreed to add 2700-2800 grafts to the frontal part to reconstruct the hairline and cover the baldness. We agreed upon a conservative hairline to preserve the grafts for possible future surgeries. In the end, 2753 grafts were added in total, and they didn't charge me the additional 53 grafts. I chose the package in which Dr did all the extractions, as well as the incisions. The placing of the grafts was done by nurses. The whole surgery lasted about 7-8 hours and went smoothly. Below are the pictures before and after the HT. Tell me what you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were three options: 1) Dr does all the extraction - 1.5 e/graft, 2) half Dr, half a nurse - 1.25 e/graft, and 3) nurse does complete extraction - 1.0 e/graft. In all cases Dr does the incisions and nurses the placement of the grafts. I chose the first one. I will post some post-HT pictures later, as I am almost at one month post-HT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Gramatik Posted May 20, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Happy growing...i have seen really great work from Dr Demirsoy 😀. Really good results and very natural.👍 Dr Demirsoy is one of the great options in turkey in a fair price between 1-1.5 euro/graft depedning on which package you will choose..but with you will have a great result in all packages as he is doing the incisions and the design/plan in all of them...I will be following your journey. Keep us updated. Edited May 20, 2023 by Gramatik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Spring15 Posted May 21, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted May 21, 2023 Dr Demirsoy has been a great low cost option in Turkey, I haven't seen any recent results from him however. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member duckling Posted May 21, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted May 21, 2023 good clean work. I really like the hairline as good irregularities have been added to it. keep taking the meds as i see the crown dipping. if you can prevent that then lot of grafts can be saved for mid-scalp with some grafts put in crown to strengthen it. You already did one good thing by saving up grafts in hairline with conservative approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Divinehair Posted May 21, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted May 21, 2023 It looks very celan work. I like a lot Dr Demirsoy's hairline design. He seems to be a great doctor for a decent price between 1-1.5 euro per graft. Looking forward to seeing your final result ! Best of luck !

Polica Posted May 21, 2023 Author Share Posted May 21, 2023 Guys thank you for your support. I am not on meds so far, but I am starting with Minox tomorrow. I am uploading pictures of donor and recipient area. The pictures are not of the best quality but hopefully enough good to follow the progress.

Senior Member ITA Posted May 21, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted May 21, 2023 It looks like a very clean job, little redness both immediately after the transplant and on the eleventh day 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polica Posted May 28, 2023 Author Share Posted May 28, 2023 Update - 1 month post surgery. Donor area has recovered very well as can be seen from the picture. The recipient area is still red, however nobody has noticed that HT was done so far. Few days ago I started to apply 5% minoxidil on the scalp. Basically that is it, now I can only wait to see the result. I will keep updating topic once per month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polica Posted June 27, 2023 Author Share Posted June 27, 2023 Hi guys! Two months have passed since my surgery and I want to share the pictures of recipient and donor area. Nothing unusual has happened, the native hair is growing and the donor area has healed well. I also notice that hairs on the temples have not shed and that angles blend well with the native hair. Let see what the next months bring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
