My Hair Transplant Journey

[Hakeem Mustapha]

Hello there,
ıts Hakem Mustapha.I have been doing research for hair transplantation for a long time, you know, if the subject is health, I need to scrutinize it. While doing that a new clinic showed up on my Instagram page recently. There are two partners, one of them is an American nurse and the other is a young entrepreneur working in the healthcare industry.
They call themselves “Bosphorus Medical Tourism”. After some research, I emailed them to get a detailed information for a hair transplant. My first positive observation was how they got back to me very soon. They wanted five photos from me. They told me how much graft I need by looking at the number the density of the roots on my neck. Their social media accounts inspire confidence and look professional. This may be unsignificant to you, but I know the importance of this as I have had painful experiences before. Also, I don't think I will have any problems with English because one of the partners is American and that is why I didn’t hesitate to choose them.
First of all, they picked me up at the airport. One of the partners greeted me in a stylish van. They drove me to my hotel with a well-dressed driver. (Sura Hotel). We toured Istanbul with my private tour guide for two days before the operation. Believe me, you will be surprised when you see this country. The English of the tour guide was very good, and he knew a little French. On the first day we toured Istanbul then on the second day, they took me to Istanbul's best shopping malls, because I love shopping.

Blood tests were done before the day of operation. Prp process was done. The reason for this is that if the grafts taken from the donor area waits in my own blood while waiting until the transplantation, the grafts would be healthier. The process continued from 10 am to 5 pm. During this time, they helped me to get used to the environment by taking small breaks. Although not all of the nurses could speak fluent English, them being cheerful was enough for me to be relaxed.

I rested in my hotel the first day after the operation. During this time, I followed the instructions they told me. I never left the hotel that day. I spent my day comfortably as my hotel was really great. Note: I have mild pain of course because at the end of the day this a surgery.

After a full day of rest, they picked me up from the hotel at 10 am for the first hair wash. Hair transplant experts explained how to wash my hair step by step and took a short video while washing it so that I could look at the video footage after returning to my country. They thought about every detail. We had a last dinner with the company owners on my last evening in Istanbul. I knew they didn't see me as a customer from the way they welcomed me, but this last dinner was proof that they cared for me like I am from their family.

The services I have received; six nights’ accommodation in a five-star hotel, prp., fue plantation, private V.I.P vehicle, Istanbul tour and tour guide, shampoo, lotion and health kit that I have to use after the transplantation (they gave enough for two months) and video conference calls once a month in the first 18 months. Under this heading, I will share my current photos with you once a month. For now, I am satisfied and doing well. Let's see what time will show.

I'm planning to upload some pictures once a month. So you can see the process guys!
