Great to see an honest overview of your experience. I'm excited about your results. Best of luck!
Thanks man! You were the inspiration to get it done! 🙏
Keep up the great content Amir. I've been following you since Feb when I had my operation done at VeraClinic. I may upload something soon myself as I am tracking my progression as well.
The great and powerful... Amir himself 👍🏼😄
I just had my transplant.
I had the exact same thing but with a different clinic. The communication wasn’t that good. I didn’t actually sit down and explain what I wanted. I really wanted to draw on my head with the surgeon what I wanted. But it was just a vague goal of filling the gaps.
During my operation I pointed at a place I wanted to make sure they filled the gap (the very front above my forehead). They didn’t do it which i discovered after removing the bandages.
Also since I paid them money. I have been messaging them questions and they don’t really respond anymore.
When they were selling me this product they answered in 10 seconds. But now they sometimes take days to reply or don’t reply at all.
I have had to go to Google to get answers on serious questions. I do feel
Like people who go turkey need to realise that the doctors are top notch but the service is terrible.
I agree with you 100%. Today is my 8th day and I am back in home from turkey. Here are few things to look for .
1. It is painful procedure. There is no needle free procedure.
2. What ever clinic you go they will upsell you their services, So watch out.
3. They will sell you their product no matter what.
congratulations! thank you for being transparent about your journey!
Excellent honest review Ty. Keep updating pls. Looking fwd to ur vids.
inspiring videos... this is the fourth one I have seen. Really helps me before I go there and what to expect
Great video, a lot of information I appreciate it. Good luck!
Thank you VERY much for your unbiased view.
I got roughly same hair loss . Looking to go to make enquires in Turkey in future .
Great video . Hope all goes to plan in the recovery and wait and see how you feel about the second transplant
I’m 14 months post op. I’ve just had SMP done for added density and looks totally amazing now. A real skin camouflage.
Hey, thanks a lot for the video. You have my personality, so I can relate very well to how you're thinking and what you're saying. This is a really strange thing to say, but I'm planning a trip in about a year from now, so if you ever go back, maybe we could figure something, out haha. Regardless, I think it looks good from what they did so far. I'll keep an eye out for more videos, and I'm sure everything will be fine. Thanks again for the video.
Amazing video thanks for the detail
Thank you for sharing your experience it helped me a lot
Thank you for this review, I am looking for a clink in Turkey my self now. So this helps a lot.
you're welcome!
Your on your way👊🏿
I’m so glad you’re honest in your video and reminded me of my experience. I almost felt very overwhelmed. When I got there, the consultant was very nice but he mentioned I didn’t have the best donor area and that made me question the transplant. After the drawing lines on my head, there was a young kid with a camera taking pictures and making me do poses which I didn’t like. Overall the hotel, service etc 7/10. Their communication can be a lot better, perhaps it’s just a culture or language barrier.
i completely agree. The phototaking part definately caught me off guard as I was not expecting it to be like a whole photoshoot thing. I thought the hotel and service was actually quite okay for me, but then again everyone has their own experiene. I also did mention to them at the end that their communication could be improved before i left the clinic as well, so i def felt the same way!
I know people always say it but the buzz cut suits you perfectly with your great beard and skin tone
Hey buddy I came back from Turkey yesterday where I had 5500 hair transplant surgeries and now I'm in Toronto watching your wonderful helpful videos again to learn and follow the stapes so thanks for all videos and information you doing god work brother
thanks for checking out the vidoes!! you'll find alot more helpful videos on the channel that will help you!
@@amitposthair yes sir thanks
Amit, great feedback. I literally just got back yesterday from my transplant from Vera Clinic. I do agree with most things you said. Very similar experience for me. I picked up a 6 month supply(Yikes) as I was told I absolutely need it and you're right; everything moved so fast that I just said yes so well see. I'm from the U.S and also went by myself just for this so indeed at times it was scary but hoping it all works out. Overall a good experience I'd say apart from a couple of things. Agree on the oxycure session a 100%. I knew I had to get on the plane the next day and the 1st session made me feel like I was on the plane so even though I paid for it I told them I wouldn't go for the 2nd session of it.
I'm glad to know that I wasnt alone with my experience. It definitely all happens so fast for you to realize how fast its actually going!
How do you like your hair now?
Bruv good look to you and wish you all the best! Your hair is gonna look sick 👍🏼 Your story is same as mine but i have bit less lost... i too watched Amir and i too am goin in few months hopefully and getting me a new life 🙏🏼👊🏽
appreciate that man! Hopefully i'll see some great results soon! And good luck for when you get yours!
Great updates
Amir had his camera on and vera clinic knew the world will watch them so they came up with best performances. They won’t do the same for anyone else .
What camera? He has zero video footage.
@@SoMuchMasshe did. For his crown.
This was very helpful & I appreciate your video. I am on the verge of getting a Fue hair transplant in America.
amazing! good luck!!
Had the same feeling when I went there. But I still think its good and alright compared to many other clinics. Im 1.5 month in post HT
Hey, how’s your hair looking now?
@@naghmanfarooq1410 Fantastic result! Just reached 6 month
I had a very same experience as you did. My procedure was in March, 2022. Although I'm satisfied with my result so far, I did feel like they weren't as personable and everything moved so fast. And the anesthesia part was indeed quite painful.
So how are ur results 7 months later?
How do you like your results?
Yeah they really downplayed the anesthesia. I’m used to needles by that point, but the pain from anesthesia on the scalp is another level compared to what I’m used to. They did around 7-10 injections on the back of my head and I can feel like 5 of them.
@@zviagin after almost 2 years, It looks great
I was just in vera clinic. Im now 5 weeks post op. I was similar to you in that i wanted to do my whole head but now thinking im glad I didn't.
Hi,, how much did you pay for your transplant and how many gradfts ?
hope your progress is going well!
Thank you for sharing your journey I'm getting mine in a week. This video helped allot. When your hair grows back try getting a high fade haircut. You won't even have to worry about the back. You're gonna have a new head of hair, a new look, try a different haircut bro
thanks man! yeah i usually keep my hair longer out at the back anyway now so scars are barely visable.. but good luck on getting yours!!
I just did my hair transplant in vera clinic 3 days ago,
Hi, absolutely loving your videos! I've been messaging Vera clinic for around about a month now over WhatsApp and they've messaged saying the channels will be opened by the doctor himself did he open your or was it just all done by technicians?
Thank you!! Glad you're enjoying the videos! As for your questions, for my case the technicians were the ones operating on me. But I was told they were qualified to do it and it was more like everything was overseen by the doctor.
That’s amazing and honest review. I’m getting my surgery in a few days at Vera too. Did you have to put your shampoos serums in a check bag or a carry on at the airport ?
thats awesome man congrats on going to get it done! i had a check in bag with me so yes i put them in there just to be safe!
hey man! Congrats, new subscriber here - just had my procedure done and I'm glad I've just discovered you - i'm 1 day post op.
Did you say your clinic recommended you don't immediately use your multivitamins and biotin after the procedure? I thought you can use it straight away? Also, do you have thoughts on using saline solution after the procedure? Thanks!
Congrats man on getting it done!
Well they told me to start taking it after a month. For the first month it was strictly pain kilers and the other meds they provided. Once a month passed, i started using the after care like taking boitin and multivites! I used the saline solution everyday as well, i feel like it really helped!
One reason of having two HT intead of one big is the survival rate of transplanted hair with smaller session
Thanks for these videos! Very helpful. Would you recommend to travel back on the second day after hHT (HT+2) or wait another night and travel on the third day? I’ll be traveling back to US for 20h
Usually on the second day after a HT, you'll need to go back to the clinic for a wash and follow up with the doctor. So realistically, you'll be only free after the 3rd day. I waited till the 4th day to fly back (my journey home was about 12 hrs). I would defintely recommend wait a day or two before flying, just so you're more comfortable with moving around with the banrages on your head!
Thanks for the honesty! I was thinking about going to Turkey in the future for a ht but now am reconsidering doing it in the US for more money. :(
Thanks brother for your transparency good honest video. I had one FUT transplant already done 2 years ago. Truthfully you'll need a second transplant because you want to cover that crown area that's the reason why they asked you to come back. Typically the amount of hair they extract is enough per a portion of coverage you'll need in one transplant. Especially if they're knocking out several transplants a day they wouldn't want to spend those long hours on one person I'd imagine even though your obviously paying $$$ I couldn't imagine them working on one person for 12 hours or so that would be incredibly tiring. I hope you get great results and you return for the crown section. Perhaps it's better to go to a different clinic just to get a different experience hopefully satisfactory on every level. Thank you again 😊 I liked your detailed video.
Appreciate your comment man! Yeah I propably will go back for a second. Right now its nearly 5 months for me and I'm already seeing results, so it's been good so far! You're right about them not wanting to spend too much time on each patient as they do have alot that go in an out on a daily basis. But in any case I may go back to them as I'm mpre familiar with them and they know me as well now. Thanks for watching the content!
Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm heading there this coming Sunday and will be there for 5 days, doing there top package - the stem cell + oxygen thing. Feeling very nervous because I'm going alone, it's a traumatic experience, foreign country etc. Gotta put my big boy pants on I guess. Do they include giving you meals at the hotel as well or are just left to fend for yourself after they kick you out of the clinic each day?
once you're in the hotel they only provide free breakfast in the morning, but everything else is you gotta handle. But they do pick you up and drop you off to the hotel after each session. Honestly it isnt that bad, but if you have someone to go with it would be nicer for the company in the hotel room. But dont worry, you have this channel to give you company for any post care of your trnasplant if you need it! :D
I like your honesty. How do you compare anestetic pain procedure with tooth extraction procedure if u had any?
I wont sugar coat it, it was definately painful. I'd say like a 7.5/10? But the good thing is that i only lasts about a minute, and then you start getting numb. Overall, its still worth the pain if you're going to get some good results for your hair in my opinion!
Good video, thanks for sharing! So there was no moments where you were left needing a translator?
And you say you can still talk to them any time since your return to Singapore?
Hey man thanks for watching! But to answer your questions, i did mostly have my translator with my 90% of the time. Anytime there was someone that did not speak english, they would use google translate to help. And you're usually assigned to a consultant who knows english, so once you've gone back to your home country, they will keep in touch with you for a while and respond to any questions you have for them
@@amitposthair Thanks mate!
I went to a different clinic and Everything with my transplant was awsome EXCEPT the same thing you mentioned. I wanted my hairline and crown done. When I sent my photos they seemed certain it would be no problem in doing it. Once I arrived they started talking about a second visit as well. If my wife had not encouraged me to go through with it I would have left. I’m glad I went through with it. I love my transplant But I felt betrayed about them not doing my crown. I could not give them a positive review because of it.
Hey Amit, did you use saline solution to keep the scabs moist
How many grafts did you get?? They have offered me the same 80% coverage I’ve not booked yet but I’m very close!!!
What Norwood state were in classified as?
Great honest video!
Thank you! I got a total of 6100 grafts. I was norwood type 6 based on the first consultation and was quoted between 4300-4800 grafts. My number was higher because they said I had a good donor area for extractions.
@@amitposthair yeah they said I’m Norwood 6 also and quoted me 3920-4335 grafts but I think I’ll need more. Hope my donor area is as strong great results keep up up dated on your new hair. :-)
Lol everybody gets 6100 this can’t be true obviously
Thanks for sharing
Did u get any swollen head? I got mine 2 days ago and kinda worried about the swollen head
I did! But its nothing to worry about. Its just the anastesia thats been pumped into your head. It should wear off in a few days. And drink plenty of water!
I would personally recommend u go back for d 2nd session.
Thanks for the detail video mate.. May I know which doctor in vera clinic is the best according to you? They are asking to choose one. Please please reply.
honestly the doctors change and rotate quite frequently there so i would not be able to tell you one! But I think they are all qualified enough to assit you. And to be honest, the doctor may not even operate on you, so just be preapred for that.
Hey mate!! I am in singapore too. Just out of curosity, Was Malaysia not a good option ? I am thinking of getting one for myself too.
I personally didn't do much research in Malaysia and I was pretty set on Turkey. But I'm sure there are good clinics there too! I just don't know too much about them to give an opinion
I am also planning to go to Vera clinic. What do you think about Smile hair clinic? Anyone done procedure there?
Hey mate, thanks a lot for this review I know it must be a bit nerve racking. Can I ask why you only got the front to mid hair done? .
Also one major thing to note about Amir's video because many people do naturally compare/refer to his journey.
I believe the fact he had a camera out and recorded A LOT of the steps where Dr's and others were able to be seen in that moment, as well as verbally explaining and asking them to explain or confirm etc obviously would have had a massive impact on how the Dr,s & other Nurses conducted themselves in that moment and throughout the day considering a camera phone is recording. Not to mention the considerably large following/audience Amir has here on CZcams, that I do believe they would have been made aware of prior. I know I'm probably pointing out the obvious and don't want to come off as an arse I just think it's worth pointing out for anyone who perhaps hasn't taken these things into consideration when comparing their own Vera Clinic Journey. I also understand and agree with what your saying on the things about the service you experienced that weren't so great as I would have felt the same if I was fortunate to be in a position to get such a treatment too.
My hair loss was pretty severe, and the doctor at the clinic told me if I want more desnity at the front, i'd have to forgo the crown for now, and come back for a second session to complete it fully. I wouldve much prefered to do the whole thing at that one time, but it was recommeded to let me donor area heal and regrow as they extracted quite a bit of grafts from it to just cover the front and mid hair.
I agree! Alot of people will compare their experiences to Amir's, I know i definately did. And as someone who watched his videos, I definately thought it would be the same way. The reality is that yes the cameras were on and they were probably showcasing themselves as a certain way, but I guess that goes with any company that is trying to film an "adverstisement" I guess you can call it.
Regardless, without those videos, it wouldve never encouraged me to get this done, so i cant complain too much about it. I'm happy with taking that step forward, and now hopefully i can pass on the information to those wondering if they wanna get one as well!
@@amitposthair 💯 percent!! I'm definitely not wanting to be discouraging by what I said on Amir's experience comparison. I think you've been incredibly courageous and brave and I admire that genuinely, says a lot about a person taking leaps of faith like you did. You look great and it can only get better from here
time stamp 8..40 the donair region of my scalp was a sandwhich
Who was your doctor if you dont mind me asking? :)
The more grafts they transplant in one session the higher the risk of transected follicles which means less survival rate, the longer technicians work the higher the chances of them making mistakes due to tiredness, the more follicles they transplant in one session the higher the chance of traumatizing your scalp, etc etc. High end clinics don’t do mega sessions, they try to stay under 2800 grafts for best results.
Curious about your opinion as I'm planning on going for a second HT in a few months (have been reading plenty of forums, watching videos, etc.). My first session was 3,500 grafts and I'm happy with the coverage but want more density and need to cover the crown. I'm 26 and healthy and have been told by both my first doctor in the US and by the online consultants in Turkey that I have a good donor area. I'm not sure if 4,000 this time around is too much, obviously don't want to overharvest but also am quite eager to get my hair to where I want it to. Does that seem like too much?
@@grantthomas2727 personally I think it’s too much specially being the second procedure, I’m not saying you won’t get good results but you’re pushing your luck. It is very tempting to get 4000 grafts for a low price but make sure you have enough donor grafts with a microscope not just an online consultation before you pull the trigger and regret it the rest of your life, remember your safe zone for harvesting is very limited and not 100% of the grafts will grow the rest of your life so medication will be mandatory in order for you to keep your transplanted hairs. At 26 years old I would try medication first if you are not already on medication and see how you respond to it. Best of luck on your next procedure.
Also the reason they give a more personal touch is if you happen to be recording your own video..
Hello, awesome video! everything you went through seems normal in my research. I’m aiming to do mine in November. I’m between long hair clinic or Vera. There’s a big price difference. Was it embarrassing flying home or were you allowed to wear a hat or something?
honestly at first I did feel embarrassed, but at the same time, at the clinic you're surround by so many people that are doing the same exact thing as you, so you dont feel so secluded.
At the airport however, was definately a little more daunting, but i quickly got over that when i saw others at the airport that had done hair transplants too! So i didnt feel too bad after. I did not wear a hat as i flew off after my 4th day at the clinic, they do not recommend wearing hats until about 2 weeks after (except for the bucket hat they provide which u can wear after i think the 5th day)
Price, what the vitiams names i was talking with one of there climic no one told what i going to put in my moth!
Hi , I am going to Vera Clinic next month from Australia , I am just confused with two options either I should go to Hair of Istanbul or Vera Clinic ? And my second question is that you didn’t take the package , you just got done hair transplant and two session of oxcycure , how much it cot you altogether?
I cant say much about Hair of Istanbul, but I can only recommend you Vera Clinic as I went there. It really depends on you and who you feel is a better option for your needs. I would suggest reaching out to the clinic and explain to them what you are looking for, they will definately be able to help you.
I did take the package! The package included the hair transplant plus the two sessions of oxycure, which amounted in the total of 2850 Euros at the time i went.
Hope this helps!
I think it was smart not to do whole head in one sitting. Quite a few doctors have recommended 2 for me to avoid too much trauma in donor area and over harvesting.
I personally think 2500 graft is more then enough for 1st session
I think the actual problem is them leaving the crown totally empty. If it was me, I’d prefer some density at the back in case I can’t do another procedure. Yes the frontal area won’t be as thick but it’s easier to camouflage and looks better if you have some hair vs completely bald
what was the timeframe from booking to the actual procedure? I'm curious to know if there's a long timeframe they have. i'm hoping to get the procedure done within 3-4 months
I started talking to my consultant back in October 2021, but i knew i was only going to be avaiable to do this in Feb 2022. So i had booked it far in advance. But generally 3-4 months is a good time frame. Gives you time to plan your trip and what to expect and do more research before flying down.
Totally agreed with you that when they advertised said that it's pain free.....no way!! haha...It was sooo fucking pain. To be honest lol I highly recommended to extend a few more days of staying in Istanbul. No need to be suffer from travelling on the flight while your head still swollen like watermelon.
I think it's standard procedure to have two procedures with the hair loss you had. Thanks for uploading these videos.
yeah i agree! especially with my hair loss, i think its common to have two done
Hi Amit, can I ask if your are perhaps a Norwood 6/7 like myself and needing two procedures, can I ask what is your post transplant medication (if it's not too personal) as I read you can stay off finasteride as your original hair is basically already shedded.
I am reaching out to Vera Clinic and Dr. Cinik currently.
No worries at all you can ask me anything! I actually do have a full video talking about my post transplant after care routine of what I am taking in order to make sure my recovery and hair growth are doing well. You can find that video here:
czcams.com/video/wfJbWYmepJY/video.html&t
Hey man.. did you feel the additional anesthesia shots when the initial ones wore off?
the shots were painful! But once the anesthesia settled in, i didnt feel a thing!
@@amitposthair did they wear off?
How come they only did a portion of the head instead of transplanting the areas where you are thinning? I am on the verge off getting an Fue hair transplant in June hopefully.
they couldnt do the full head at the time because of the number of grafts needed to be extracted. Usually 5000-6000 grafts in one session is big one and it would take over 8 hours
There's a lot being advertised about a Sapphire FUE technique. Did you get a Micro FUE or a Sapphire FUE HT? Thoughts and opinions on either?
I got a sapphire FUE hair transplant done! I think that is one the most common and trusted ways to go
@@amitposthair thank you. Appreciate all your insights and work in documenting your experience!
How soon after the transplant is it recommended to start using the hair fibers?
i would recommend wait for 3 months but you can use it as early as 2. Personally i wanted to wait to see how well my hair grew out by the 3rd month then i started using it
What kind of transplant did you get and is it effective ? And what kind is the best type for a person or do they figure that out
I got an FUE trasnplant. If you've seen my latest video (my 4 month update), you can see how effective it is so far.
You'll have to speak to your doctor or consultant and ask them which is best for your hair as everyone's is different!
Hey how many grafts did you get in the frontal area
i got 6100 grafts for my hairline and midscalp!
Am going in 2 weeks. Iv booked it with este medical tho
How was your experience?
@@Ahmed-ob6ec everything went really well. Got 3700 grafts done. Life is almost back to normal now
I heard that there is a VIP package where the doctor does everything from extraction to implanting. Did you get offered that?
Unfortunately that was never offered to me nor did I ask about that. But I did speak to the doctor before heading for my procedure. The extracting and implanting were done by the technicians there. Although I wouldve loved it to be done by the doctor, the technicians were equally as good and qualified to perform the operation in my opinion.
@@amitposthair Wow, the techs did all the work? The doctor did nothing? That sucks!
@@amitposthair Thank u for all the info. I am wonder if the doctor do the incision or by the Technician?
@@chencedric1979 it really depends on who is available. For me it was the technicians but they were equally as qualified and being instructed by the doctor on what they needed to do. So in my opinion it was fine afterwords
Hi Amir. How was your experience with Vera Clinic? How much you paid for the procedure how you like their service and procedure. Please reply thanks.
I paid €2850 (was a more expesive package). i've answered this in my Q&A video in more detail! do check that out if you would like to know more
How long does the scarring last?
do you mean from the donar area? the scars will be there but will be barely visible if you grow your hair out a little
I wish ya luck sir. Sometimes I miss my hair...sometimes I don't. I feel like you'd look great bald lol...I started shaving at 30, and the bald look has grown on me. I've seen Vera Clinic thrown out a few times by other CZcamsrs but it's hard to know who's sponsored and who isn't. All the Turkish hair transplant clinics online seem to have "amazing" 5 star reviews. It all seems a little suspicious.
Were you forced to rate the clinic upon leaving? i'm just curious. lol I guess you may signed some kind of NDA lmao
Hey man! Ya I feel you. After shaving my head I also thought maybe I look better bald, but I've already gone through with this so I wanna at least try to get the most out of it. Appreciate the comment though.
As for being sponsored by them, not at all. They didn't tell me to say or do anything about them after. All these videos are really just to showcase the experience I had and what others can look out for in the future. All they gave me was a referral link which I could possibly get a discount for if I do another transplant from them, but in all honestly for me it's more about being as transparent as possible for others.
I wouldn't rate then 5 stars cus there are still some flaws about them, but so far I'm seeing progress with my hair transplant so I still wouldn't say they are the worst. The first experience may not be what you expect but they still do produce results. Just my 2 cents
I can't get myself to fly all the way to turkey to do this! Lol but the $ is so much cheaper than in the US!
its true it is so much cheaper! one of the reason why i did it there!
*So you basically went to a hair mill - 16 patients a day?*
I went there as well. Although a lot of the stuff you said is correct. I don’t think you would’ve got anything different in Istanbul Turkey by any other clinic for that matter. Also the results are what matters. The fact that you couldn’t do the back of your crown in one sitting looks like you may have needed an extraordinary amount of grass and to have a harvester donor area in one shot doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Just my opinion I’m about six weeks in myself thank you for your opinion but sometimes less is more at least the first time around.
I paid 3650 with the OXY cure. It did not include the medicine so I assume by the time I was done I was probably at about €4200 depending on how much medicine you choose to buy before you leave.
@@Bumbaclaat don't bother with the Hyberbaric treatment. Thorough studies have shown you need about 10 session to reach efficacy. Also, it barely does anything for your end result. However, it does help with the post op itching and the redness when healing. Not essential. Money better spent on PRP treatments (at least four session would greatly improve results)
Are you taking any medication to maintain your hair ? How longs it been now since the transplant?
i am! I take a daily amount of 1mg of finasteride, apply minoxidil everyday, and taking biotin and multivites! It's now been 9 months! (check out my latest vid for the result)
@@amitposthair Did you take fin before the procedure and if so long for? Did the shedding worry you ?
@@deanVodkahouse shedding definately terrified me, you can see my 2nd month vid, lots of hair had fallen off... but then watch the rest of the monthly updates, you can see how much grows back from there. All i can say is.. gotta trust the process! haha
And no i did not take any Fin before the procedure. I only started for the first time ever after i got my transplant a month later. I believe its helped me keep my remaining native hair
@@amitposthair I will watch it and it's frightening, I was told by Fuecapilar who I was going to book with in Turkey that I need to take fin for atleast 6 months before I have the procedure with them. What about though if I were to have sides when on fin I would have lost hair from the shedding but then it wouldn't come back as I would have to come off the med because of the sides...then what? Also my hair is pretty thin so shedding probably means I would have to buzz it off and that does really scare me
Why you chose Vera clinic. What are the criteria for selection..was there better clinics for more money ?
They had good reviews and great results. So i went with them!
So painful I know. But its short
Best clinic in Turkey? Please be real. They are a tech based stressful clinic doing many patients per day. They do have some decent results though, but its mainly up to getting lucky with the best technicians.
What was your total cost? I'll assume that you went with 5,000 grafts?
I paid a total of 2850 Euros at the time (march 2022). It cost may be higher now. And i got a total of 6100 grafts done.
And is he the same doctor who did the second procedure
different doctors!
Didnt they use sedation via ur veins ?
they did not!
How much did everything cost?
I paid €2850 (was a more expesive package). i've answered this in my Q&A video in more detail! do check that out if you would like to know more
It's too hard on the donor area to cover a full basis head in 1 session, you wouldn't have had full coverage.
For your condition 2 sessions is needed. I'm in the same boat as you
Turkey has so much business they don’t have time to waste it’s in and out
Well I am glad I shaved my head and learnt to live with it 😆
if you keep your hair short, it will look very good man!
appreciate that, friend! 🙏
How many graphs did you do? Why didn't you do the crown too? Not enough doner hair?
6100 grafts! i had alot of hair loss and the doc recommended that I do the crown on a second session as there was a larger area at the front to cover. If i had done the crown as well, overall i'd have lesser density at the front.
@@amitposthair That makes sense. I just had 5k grafts done. VeraClinic is amazing and yes it was painful as hell. They heard me swearing down the hall. 🤣
What was the clinic?
Vera Clinic! there's a link in the description to their website!
What was the cost at this clinic?
I have a full video of the breakdown of the cost here:
czcams.com/video/qhT5MH8UflQ/video.html
But to summarise, I paid a total of 2850 Euros for the procedure!
How much did it cost bruh for your 6100 grafts
i paid 2850 euros at the time!
Would you recommend another clinic over Vera?
They're all pretty similar nowadays because so many men around the world are going there for ht, they no longer feel the need to please their customers on a personal level anymore. I wonder if any clinics over there have the doctors actually perform at least half of the work. 🤔
I went to IdealofMed and had a good experience, very professional. It’s been two months so I can’t really speak of the result but the experience was great though. I would stay a week after in Istanbul though and fly home with a cap if I did it again.
@@freddie_mvp any updates?
@@AltairxD yeah it's coming up on 5 months soon and although my hair is not growing back as fast as I would have liked, im getting there. They say that you usually have to wait 6 months for satisfactory results and up to a year for the full results but so far very happy.
@@freddie_mvp I’m going to them this month, did they do a good job with the hairline? Did they put single grafts for the hairline? How’s your donor area? Was there any doctor involvement the whole surgery?
Dude get the spray hair fibres instead, much easier.
How much cost you in total ?
paid 2800 Euros in total!
This is the classic hair mill story hopefully your results are okay 😬
How old are you here ? In the video ? I got mine done in at 41 😬
i was 32 at the time!
call spencer kobren
Didn't you get any swelling?
I did! That lasted about a week after the surgery. They usually provide you with some medicine to reduce swelling
How are things going on in Turkey, is it safe to go there??
from the time that I went, it was very safe!
@@amitposthair How long ago has that been???
@@kushyisrael1652 got it done in end Feb 2022! Pretty recent
@@amitposthair So for the most part things were peaceful???
What was the name of your doctor?
i forgot my first doctors name but the second time i went, my doctors name was Dr Kareem
Did they give you oral pain medication after/?
yes! they provided me with some pain medication to take for the next 2 weeks after the procedure, as well as some swelling medication.
Whichh clinic did you use?
@@yoyo-us8vc Vera clinic! There is a link to their website in the description!
I would never get a hair transplant done by this type of clinic, no matter how many good reviews they get. I want the peace of mind of having an actual doctor every step of the process and actually cares about giving you a good lasting hairline, not just be after your money. I would not go to Istanbul since it's too far away and most experts don't recommend it in case you need to do a follow up but if you do, it seems your best options are only three guys: Doctors Ali Emre Karadeniz, Osman Oguzoglu and Kayihan Sahinoglu as they are members of both the International Society of Hair Restoration and the American Board of Hair Restoration.
Did the shots burn or something?
didnt bure, it just stung a little. Like you know how you go to get a flu shot? But its like 8-10 of those at one go.
@@amitposthair How many shots did you feel till you became numb?
Would you recommend Vera Clinic to your friends?
I would!! I have a link to their site in the description check them out
