Hair transplants in Turkey

[JoeTillman]

1) when you say that you have some more by using the fuss technique, can I ask roughly how much more? What % more would you have?

It is difficult to say and while I do believe that more grafts are available via the "FUSS first" approach the amount of hair that can be moved may not be so different as FUE can specifically target follicular units with more hairs. In a FUSS procedure you are limited to what is in the strip that is taken. However, I can confidently say that in my own case, I could not have had as much hair moved had I only had FUE to begin with but this is strictly due to the way my scalp heals after strip surgery in that my laxity returned to near normal for my first several procedures.

2) I have never had a transplant before but considering one, however one clinic has advised that I can have a 6000-8000 hair transplant by either FUT (Fuss). Or a double day FUE of 6000-8000 hairs. Do you think this is too much for a first time hair transplant and would advise against this or do you think this is about right in terms of grafts?

You said "hairs" so was the quote in grafts or hairs specifically? This is important to know because an 8000 hair procedure is about 3500 grafts. Please clarify.

Hi Joe, thanks for answering. Yes I have been quoted 6000-8000 HAIRS for ether an FUE or FUT procedure. So In grafts I was wondering if this would be within your recommended amount.

Best wishes,

That is on the high end of what I feel is a safe limit but personally, I think 3000 is a safer number to consider for either procedure.

Hi joe. Dr erdogan at asmed quoted me 5000 fue grafts done over 2 days so 2500 on consecutive days. Yes his high graft results are amazing as i know you have seen but is this still too much? Or as its done over 2 days makes it safer to do?

Hi joe I’m sure if u still read these as post was a good while ago Now. Wanted to say everything you write is so knowledgeable and you’d be mad not to listen to you. Great work bro. Wanted to say have u had experience with going to dr hakan doganay practice then and seen how he works?? (Cos u mentioned before u wouldn’t say unless you’d been first hand) wanted to know what you thought of his work cos after a year of research (and with a 6/7k budget) I’m 99% certain he is the man for me?? Only not concern is that all his work online is amazing yes but seems to be a while ago (some ppl saying results aren’t what they used to be?) be great if you could give your opinion thanks again man

In general you can divide the hair transplant clinics in Turkey into three tiers (all-inclusive, medium and premium). I would be careful with all all-inclusive packages below 3,000 EUR because here most of the work is done by the technicians and the results are rather volatile. A good sign is if the doctors calculates per graft. Check out this site for all the pro and cons per tier: https://medihair.com/en/hair-transplant-turkey/. Turkey has some great hair transplant surgeons. However, its difficult to cut through all the marketing and find them BEFORE your surgery I hope this is helpful.
