Dear members at the moment i am in Antalya with Dr Hakan Doganay and have asked him if it would be fine for me to interview him and post the question and answers on this forum, and he has kindly obliged. So here goes....

Q - Who will be extracting the donor?
A - The Nurses (supervised by the Doctor)

Q - How experienced are the nurses?
A - All nurses are trained by the Doctor, and have not been trained in hair transplantation before, so therefor know the clinic's technique and have over 20 years experience between them.

Q - Does the hair need to be shaved down.
A - It is fine to keep the hair as it it, however we prefer the hair to be shaved. (no charge)

Q - Why do you use the choi implanter pen?
A - We have tried many techniques for procedures and compared to healing time, operation scars, density and natural appearance, we found this technique the best.

Q - Do you perform any other procedures at AHD clinic?
A - Eyebrows, beard and moustache transplants.

Q - Do you have any experience with repair patients?
A - We are happy to treat 5-6 repair patients per month, however only if possible.

Q - Do you treat women's hair loss
A - We have an agreement with a lot of dermatologist in Turkey about women's alopecia areata and we treat all their female patients successfully (shaving not required)

If you think i have missed any questions you would like to ask the Doctor then please ask as i am here for 10 more days

Tomorrow i get to see a patient who has had an 8000 graft procedure (3 procedures) which i can not wait to see. The results, repairs and patients i have seen are very impressive and will be on the Doctors case to get these results posted as i am excited for you guys to see them, i have been researching the forums and Docs for years and it has been a pleasure to meet Dr Hakan and see he's work.

To be continued......

I have seen and heard great things about dr. Hakan. However i was very disappointed to see he has doubled his prices since his recent forum fame.

2 euro per graft! That is quite good for the work he produces.

Yes james ‚¬2/graft for motorised punch. Dr. Erdogan charges the same for manual extraction and if you are getting a sizeable number of grafts prohairclinic or dr. De reys would also work out around the ‚¬2 mark.

Dr. Bhatti only charges approx ‚¬1/graft.

No doubting Dr. Hakan doganay does great work especially on larger NW's

I think dr. Bhattis work looks really good. Very clean in post op pictures. He is becoming very popular as of late. He will probably increase his.prices shortly too.

Its great to hear the number of competent surgeons increasing and the number of horror stories decreasing!
