Mascherano Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Hi all, I had a transplant with Dr C**** in 2019. I had around 3600 grafts. I'm happy with my hairline but it's now time to tackle the crown and mid scalp. I'm on fin and Minoxidil the last 2 years. Back in 2019 C**** told me I didn't need Fin, which turned out to be wrong and thus along with other reasons I don't want to go back to him for my second transplant. I've attached pictures from the transplant in 2019 for reference. I'm thinking of going to Dr. Yaman and asking him to focus on the mid scalp and crown. He's suggested around 3500 grafts incl some from beard. What do you guys think? Is he a good option for this job? When I sent pictures he said he would also fix my hairline, but I think it's fine as is. I also checked with Fue Capilar but the cost is €5200 as he only does 2500 grafts per procedure and says I would need around 4000. That's out of my budget. Also, can anyone tell me is shock loss as severe second time round? I'm hoping as there won't be much/any work on my hairline this time that after a month or so the ugly duckling phase might not be as bad as last time.

Senior Member mr_peanutbutter Posted March 27 Senior Member Share Posted March 27 (edited) dr yaman is a good option if your budget is tight, you could also consider farres seffen from tunis or jean luc portelli (makta) who are in a similar price range Edited March 27 by mr_peanutbutter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member BaldGuy Posted March 27 Regular Member Share Posted March 27 Dr Yaman is a good and an experienced doctor, so definitely you could trust him. I think Dr Yaman said corectly to you that you also fix your hairline a little bit, while increasing the density in the midscalp and the crown area.

Senior Member Ajamilo Posted March 29 Senior Member Share Posted March 29 Surgeon is not something easy and you should not focus on the money aspect but rather the one that can provide the best result for you. If you can’t afford better doctors than Yaman i advice you to save more money. Money comes and goes but this will impact your life for ever. Dr.Yaman is a hair mill and not so good doctor. He should not be on the forum recommendation but that is another discussion. Go for a more safer and cheap doctors such as dr.Gur, Turan, Bicer good luck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only does a max of 3 patients and day and does some of the work himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's fine It's hard to tell without seeing a picture of the hair combed back to expose the hairline. I would say if you're happy with it then leave it alone. It seems to look OK with the side combing in your picture that mostly covers it. You have a lot of area in the midscalp and crown to cover, so I'd try to focus on that. Then once that grows in you can see if you have any more grafts you can use to have a touch up to enhance any spots you think need it.

Esper Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 If you're comfortable with his approach, go for it. Fue Capilar might be too pricey, but if it works for you it will give you the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Ehayat Posted March 29 Regular Member Share Posted March 29 I think FUE capilars price is very reasonable. If anything its cheap. Anything cheaper there is a reason for that. Why do you think Yaman charges a flat rate lol cmon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr yaman is an ethical surgeon and he participates in all of his surgeries by doing incisions, plan, design, measurements of donor and recipient area and he supervises all of his hair transplants. So in general he is a good choice at a fair price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many unsatisfied patients in "hair transplant reviews" section in this forum that won't second that. To Mascherano, run away from Yaman and similar clinics/doctors. You have alreday made a mistake, do not make another one. Edited March 30 by baddecisions 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone type his name in the search bar he can can find many great results for dr yaman and the majority of his results are successful. You can find in any doctor some not good cases.

That is the first good result I have seen of him. Even the 1000 clinic available in turkey get some good results. The second link: is a result from 2018 and he just provided a update to the 6 month period and the hair was still thin. So it could either have been failure or a good result The third link: the result is not even finished yet. He is in his 4 month post op and the result look ok so far and still thin as we should expect. We can’t judge it before the 8 month period. How is it possible to be a happy patient before the end result? The firth link: This is still not a finished result. Last update was his 6 month update and the hairline was still thin. Basically if the hair mature it will be a good result if not - it will be a failure. The fifth link is a guy who update his 15 days after surgery. I don’t have time to look at the other links you provided if this is your standard for what a satisfied patient is.

I don’t have time to look at the other links you provided if this is your standard for what a satisfied patient is. The first on is one of the many great results of dr yaman on this forum. First satisfied patient. The second one was already great with high density hairline at 6 months, imagine how it would look at 12 months....Second satisfied patient. The third one seems to have good progress at only 4 months, and the patient is already satisfied with his current progress. In the upcoming months he will be even more satisfied. The fourth one shows great progress with good density at only 6 months which will look even more good at 12 months Fourth satisfied patient the fifth result is the seond procedure of this patient with dr yaman. He already had a succesful first surgery with dr yaman and selected him again for this second surgery. Fifth satisfied patient. The next 7 results are great final results from dr yaman and all of these patients were satisfied with the great outcome by dr yaman…most of his reviews on this forum are positive ones You seem to be the number one hater of dr yaman and you are trying to sabotage him with every chance...

Regular Member kajl Posted April 2 Regular Member Share Posted April 2 I'd like to express that Ajomilo's input aligns well with the ethos of this forum. Embracing objections is crucial; it enriches discussions rather than having only positive affirmations. When individuals refrain from voicing concerns about less-than-optimal hair transplant results depicted in pictures, it can mislead newcomers into assuming everything is satisfactory. However, in reality, there may be areas for improvement, such as refinement issues, which should be acknowledged for the benefit of all forum participants... This is something I feel happened to me personally 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something I feel happened to me personally We try our best to encourage open and honest discussions and personal reviews and experiences, both good and bad. That's why I always felt this is the best hair restoration forum there is. Sometimes it leads to arguments, harassment, and rudeness which are things we don't tolerate. Otherwise this forum would end up being just a bunch of arguments and wouldn't be very useful.
