I got a hair transplant in Turkey (Pics)

[fmbl24]

Losing my hairline was messing with me to the point where I knew I had to come up with a solution. So I began researching online the cost of repairing my hairline through transplant. The money here in the states is pretty astronomical for the procedure, so I started exploring other places around the world. I found this place in Turkey that seemed to have a decent reputation, though it is tough to know for sure online. Anyway, I decided to roll the dice. What do you guys think?

BEFORE:




DURING PROCEDURE:



After:





Edit — Cost was $1900 for procedure, transportation and hotel stay. Cost does not include flight.

It was actually really easy. I got in contact with one of their reps through Whatsapp. She outlined the process, had me send in pictures and then gave me an estimate. I arrived in Turkey, had a guy with a sign holding my name up. They brought me to the hotel, to the hospital and then back to the airport when I was done. I couldn't believe how smooth it went.

I would never take that crap again. Ruined me for a solid month.

Looks amazing OP. How long did you have to lay low/not go out in public after the surgery?

So the healing process was 10 days. Meaning I couldn't cover it or anything for that length of time. After 10 days I could wear a hat. But honestly, I didn't really care. I went about my business with my head all scabbed up.

gjdm bet you are loving it! does it last forever?

What about the natural hair you still had (e.g in the middle and beyond the receded part), did they replace that, or will you have to get it replaced if it falls out?

Lol my dad did both his hair and his teeth at the same time. He was full bald and they pulled all his teeth. I remember him never leaving the house.

Did it hurt?
How long was the flight to Turkey?
How much $$ was the procedure and flight?

Yeah man, I'm pumped. It does, my front hairline is now resistant to DHT. So I anticipated more hair loss and went back a little further than one might suspect looking at my before photos. I got 3000 graphs.

I saw a BBC video about UK citizens traveling to Turkey for hair transplants.

Does FUE leave scars in the back if you decide to shave like 20 years from now?

Edit: strong chad. Your skull is ****ing huge lmao

What r ur stats?

[superman704]

Lmfao, I embrace my baldness

They numbed up my head pretty good but the initial needle was irritating for sure. The flight from Boston to Turkey was about 13 hours, I flew Turkish airlines which was actually amazing. Great food and service and decently comfortable seating in comparison to other planes.

The flight and trip were totally separate, but everything was included in the hair package. So for ALL transportation, 3 nights hotel stay and procedure, it ran me $1900. The flight from Boston to Turkey was roughly $900 at the time, but I'm sure those flights are a bit cheaper now.

Actually met a few UK bros there. They were funny as hell. One of the guys was a maniac boozing and doing drugs right after the procedure. You're not supposed to have alcohol within 48 hours of the procedure and for a few weeks after.

Does the hair grow like your normal hair after the surgery? Any kawk reduction surgeries in the same clinic(asking for a friend)?

mirin srs, would probably get one if mine starts receding based on that

do the hairs ever turn grey if you have or start to get grey hair elsewhere?

Yes, hair grows just like normal. lmfao not sure about that

[fmbl24]

I took it from the back of my head and moved it to the front, so whenever the back of my head starts graying my front will too. I imagine it will gray differently when that time comes, but I'm not too concerned about it. Could look kind of cool

[Jasonw1178]

How much did you save percentage wise? Was it as clean and professional?

[andyray]

so what happens when your hairline continues to recede and you're left with the implanted hair at front?

just keep getting more transplants?

[fmbl24]

I'm not in sales or anything so I don't want to plug the place. There are a million places like the one I went to in Turkey, which is the hair restoration capital of the world at this point. If you come to the point where you get serious and need help, send me a DM and I'll link you to a few reputable spots and allow you to decide.

dude how come in 1 pic u look indian and anoter pic u look normal srs

Lol

Indians are not normal people?

[Harry815]

Now would be the perfect time to get it eh, because a lot of people are working from home and can easily recover at home.
