Help guys…..totally confused!!

I everyone just wondering is there anyone out there who has been in a similar position to me.

I am a 47 years old male with what I would class as NW5/6.

Over the last 12 months I have been through many ups and downs regarding HT surgery. For such a big decision to make regarding your appearance and changing your life, it €™s scary.

After joining many forums and networks and spending many hours researching who is the best, who I can trust, location of the clinic etc. etc. It €™s been in possible to make a decision. Without doubt it €™s an absolute mine field out there.

Like most people on here who are considering HT. I am scared, nervous and totally confused

What I have learnt though is that it €™s hard to find a bad word about Dr Koray Erdogan or his clinic ASMED. Many people are very impressed with his results. From my research on choosing a surgeon it €™s seems to be about finding an artist who really cares about the end result.

Because I have lost my complete hairline I know I will need a complete new hairline and this scares the hell out of me.
Saying all that I have 99% made my decision to have HT (FUE). I would be ever so grateful if anyone would be so kind to answer any of my questions below or offer me any advice or experiences they might have had.

Thank you for your time it €™s very much appreciated.

1 My main concern is the hairline. As I am completely bald in this area can a new total natural looking hairline be created?

2 Could I still shave my head using a 2-3mm in length all over and it still would look natural?

3 How good is Dr Koray Erdogan and his staff?

4 Does anyone regret having hair transplants ? ​

Dr Erdogans results are impressive, I met some of his patients last year, their hair look very good and natural. Being a high norwood, 3000 grafts will give you a new hair line and coverage in the frontal half. I would go for a mature hair line that's not too dense that looks natural with your level of loss. It will also depend on your donor availability and the prospect of more loss. You don't want to get a HT, lose more hair and be left with an unnatural look.
I'm sure Dr Erdogan will do a great job for you providing you're a candidate.
Hope that helps.

Cami,

Welcome to the forum. As Bigmac says Asmed produce some good results I also saw their work in person and was impressed. A new transplanted hairline will look natural in the right hands. Finding a Doctor that can match existing angles and create good density is the key here.

I have seen many transplants shaved short but personally I think they look better with some more length. It does depend on the texture of your hair and the contrast between scalp and hair colour when worn short.

There are many people out there that have regretted hair transplants which is why research is so important. You should consult in person with some recommended Doctors on here and take a range of good quality photos for online consultations for those clinics you can't get to in person.

All the best

Hi David,
Thanks for your reply. In your opinion which surgeons are currently performing high quality FUE HT ?
When you say lots of people regret having HT, do you think this is because they have chosen the wrong surgeon?
