I had my transplant done in turkey, and can say it was one of the best decisions of my life. Looking in the mirror and smiling at your hairline is priceless. I wear my hair shorter than yours, so I know how hard it is to find FUE transplant pictures of men with cropped hair styles. There are no visible scars, and the transplant looks naturally when cut short. We have similar a balding pattern. My hair loss is from the front temple area as well. The clinic put in 1300 grafts to fill in temple area and make my hairline even in the front. The clinic I went to charges per procedure not grafts. So getting 1300 or 5000 grafts is the same price. I believe it came out to $2300, with hotel, breakfast and meds included. I’m sure I was like most of you, I kept dragging my feet for a couple years going through periods of intense research on transplants, then months of not thinking about it. My advice to you would be to book it now. If you don’t have the $$, then put it on a credit card haha. It’s a life changing procedure and there is considerable recovery time. Takes about 8-10 months to get full results maybe a little longer. So as of this posting, you’re looking at early 2019 before your transplant fills in and you see results.
Another thing, I wouldn’t recommend going to a clinic where the dr preforms the trasplant himself. Extracting the hair follicles is a very low skill job, but very labor intensive especially with larger transplants. So ask yourself, would you rather have 2 thirty year old technicians that all they do in life is extract hair folicals, do this very easy but labor intensive job simultaneously, or an old frumpy entitled dr that pulled up to work in his S-class Mercedes? I’ll take the two young techs any day of the week. I have full confidence that if they gave me the extracting tool and a hour or two of practice, I’d be efficient at extracting follicles myself, just trying to get my point across that it’s not rocket science, manicuresist and hair stylist require more skill than extracting hair follicles. There are two parts of the procedure that I would say requires medical experience and/or artistry, first is the person that gives you injections to numb your head, then the person that puts the holes in your head where the follicals will be placed. So don’t pay a dr double the amount to do half the work at a lower quality than these techs can do. Any questions feel free to ask.
