Hi,
I have been having a headache looking for a doctor to do FUE transplantation in Turkey. There is so much scheme and I don't trust most of the reviews and it seems to be a zoo without a keeper. Now I limited down my choices to some that I would like to share with you and I will also share the most important points that needs to be fulfilled for me to do this decision.
So after research and getting in contact with different doctors, I have some that I may consider but I want to be so sure about my choices:
DR. Serkan Aygin: estimating 4500 grafts for 2200€, 3500 at the front, and 1000 on the crown area. Not so confident about him to be honest!
Transmed, Dr. Melike Kulahci: estimated and recommended not more than 3000-3500 grafts for 2700€, to avoid negative side effects at the donor are, the correspondent was competent and he offered a lot of information and he was not shy to actually also mention other two doctors as the only others to be trusted in Istanbul and recommended me to be careful. Dr. will do the consultation and the hair design and pores but will not place the grafts after the extraction. she specified the technic as FUE motorized micro extractor: 0.6, 0.8mm punch. ( her package is just about the operation and related items like prp, medication, etc. nut no hotel and pickup blabla.
Dr. Melike attended plenty of workshops and was a board member and also representative of the European hair transplant association and the ISHRS.
Smile hair has been a bit persistent and they offered Dr. Mehmet Erdogan and Gökay Bilgin. Opinions about them are quite repulsive.
DR. Bicer, one of the slowest to answer, I'm waiting for her estimation still
Dr. Arslan?
FUEcapilar with doctor Turan or his partner?
Vera Clinic?
Cosmedica, they gave quite cheap price of 2100€ and promise to extract the maximum number of grafts. The correspondent didn't seem to be well concentrating with which client he is talking as he once said that i had fue before which will after the number we could extract, i had FUT and in the second email he said the number of grafts is hard to estimate because i had two hair Ops, so I decided to look for someone that gives me the feeling I'm more than a walking wallet.
Medicalaest: Dr. Adem Turkmen Offered 4000 grafts FUE Saphire technic for 1500€ Christmas special offer, they send me extensive pdf with information and pictures of a fancy hotel and clean clinic but nothing of results, etc.!
DR. Ilker Apaydin: Probably the most expensive till now, offered FUE +FUT combination, 4500 grafts: 2200 front, 1200 middle, 1000 crown, and 1+4 PRP treatments over 4 months: 4500€, although it seems that he has a good reputation, i won't do another FUT again.
DR. Balwi Elithairtransplant: i knew this one only from some german guy who was making videos on Youtube about how his hair was developing after the operation, he went also for a second operation with the same doctor. Apart from that very little about him there.
Dr. Ilhan Serdarogl, seems convenient, he does one operation per day, he said that we will need around 3400 to 3800 and that is the limit also. He was clear that i shouldn't expect a hair of 18 years old, he also mentioned in his mail that DHI is just a marketing gimmick. he went into details about what to expect and whatnot. he said that in each cm there should be 40 -45 grafts for each cm and that the density should be about 50% of native hair after 1 year. His price was 3800€
So you see my dilemma, it seems convenient with some of the offers here but I want to take as less risk as possible. I wanted also to give more information here from my research to help others who will most probably have the same problem of choosing the right clinic. I would appreciate your feedback or experience of any of these doctors?
At other forums, they are not so enthusiastic about Turkey for an Op, which I understand why, so I wanted to get more feedback from here.
Thanks.
