    Default UK vs Turkey for FUE.

    Hi Guys,

    Just after some advice on if i should travel abroad for a FUE transplant or Stay in the UK and pay abit more but then have the security of being able to easily contact clinic etc.

    So ive narrowed my options down to Harley street clinic in London or Dr Keser in Turkey. Ive had a consulation at Harley street and they seemed very helpful & trustworthy. But i have seen some of kesers work and it also looks very good.

    Has anybody on here had any dealings with ethier othe these clinics that could share any advice ?

    Thanks

    Hi Alexander,

    Why don't you think about visiting Iran and getting your hair transplant done in there?
    Cause I know that the cost of hair transplant in Iran is cheaper than other countries because of devaluation their national currency. Also, Iran is a beautiful country, and you can sightsee Tehran the capital of this country and after getting your surgery done back to the UK again. I put their website address check it out maybe it can change your mind.

    @alexander

    Why just the UK or Turkey?

    You mention the security of being able to easily contact the clinic. I would suggest that the security of having one of the worlds best surgeons would outweigh the importance of being able to easily contact the clinic.

    Having said that the clinics/Drs you mentioned are amongst the more respected.

    Whilst cost is obviously important and everybody is price conscious to a degree, it should NEVER been the main determining factor. It could end up costing you a lot more in the long run otherwise.

    Would you consider Greece? It could be an exciting prospect for you.

    Wishing you the best.

    I have had 2 previous FUT surgeries in the UK which were terrible, with unsatisfactory results and a poor level of care, this from so called "top" clinics.I had almost given up on any further surgery in the UK as in my opinion it is a minefield of polished salesmen and incompetent and indifferent surgeons.After much research and consultations with all the prominent clinics in the UK I came across Dr Ball at the Maitland Clinic.

    Dr Ball from the Maitland Clinic is an exceptional surgeon, i found him to be caring, competent and highly ethical, he has lead his team to have the same ethos and frankly they left no stone unturned to try to achieve the best possible outcome for me.I had a consultation some time ago and Dr Ball was not happy to go ahead due to my poor scalp health and he felt this needed to be treated before surgery could be considered. This was never picked up by any of the previous consultations, which generally involved the surgeons running their hands through my hair and being aloof when asked questions.

    Dr Ball used a magnified camera to assess my scalp and likely graft yield and provided a detailed appraisal talking about alternatives to surgery, and strategies to improve my scalp health for optimal results.

    I found him to be a very caring and ethical individual who is not financially driven and puts patient’s interest first, it was apparent to me that he wanted the best possible result for me.

    His team David and Jana Shafer (clinical director) are exceptional in their field.After the consultation I bombarded David (who is an exceptional patient advisor ) with a barrage of questions and queries which were responded to immediately and without ever making me feel that it was too much trouble.

    I had another consultation after measures were taken to improve my scalp health and I had a FUT procedure in july 2019. The whole team were so caring and professional throughout the day. The sectioning of the grafts under microscope is an essential part of the procedure and the technicians were focused and tireless in their work, Jana is a world class clinical director. There was no rush in any part of the day and it seemed the focus of the whole team was to achieve the best possible result regardless how long it took. Dr Ball only treats one patient a day and hence i was the full focus of the team.
    When choosing a surgeon and clinic i think its important to choose one that specialises in both FUT and FUE, and has your best interests at heart with a skilled and motivated team.
    In my opinion Dr Ball is a caring, ethical and highly skilled surgeon with a real passion for his profession.Truly world class!

    In Turkey Keser is one of best professionals. Before my first ht, I did a research and choose between Keser and some other guys in Turkey.

    Hello alexander
    I will introduce Iran to you because I have the best quality of services. I used the services of this medical tourism company in Iran and I suggest it to you. I will give you their site address.
