  • In this video, I document my trip to Istanbul to get a hair transplant. It is mostly informative and will give you an authentic account of my experience. However, on occasion, I do try to be a little humorous.
    I chose SMILE Hair Clinic after extensive research not only into them, but also into many other clinics in Turkey. My experience with SMILE was, as you'll see, excellent. I haven't had any results yet (obviously), but I plan to bring regular updates at the 2 week, 2 month, 3 month and 6 month mark. As well as anything in between (results and situation dependent).
    If you have any questions about anything that I experienced, either with the clinic, my hair loss or the aftercare - I encourage you to get in touch with me through my instagram (@George__Hodgson), or leave a comment below.
    And finally, if you liked what you saw in my video and fancy getting in touch with SMILE for a consultation etc, follow the following link and use code George100 to claim 100 Euros off your package deal.

    Hi George I've read mixed reviews on Smile...especially on Hairloss Conquerors. What made you decide on Smile ? Thanks

    • @zenfiction9978
      @zenfiction9978  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi Julia. I decided on Smile for a number of reasons: consultation, trustpilot reviews, bbc documentary etc. Might be worth messaging some of these people who have a bad review? Mine was very positive :)

      @@zenfiction9978 Thanks. Probably the main message that came through on Hairloss Conquerors was inconsistency ie some people have great results like you but others have poor results. I'm wondering if it comes down to which Smile technician team you get. How did you ensure you got good results ? Did you have the doctors do the incisions or was it technicians ? Any other advise on how to ensure being one of Smiles good news stories would be greatly appreciated.

    @mz4ever123 Před 2 lety

    I did mine exactly 1 year ago with them. I've had mixed results so far. Mainly scalp & hairline are not fully improved. Scalp issue is due to them only putting 600 grafts on the area when it should have been more, so you can still see my scalp unfortunately. And my hairline was implanted by 2 technicians on each side however my left side wasn't done properly & hasn't grown so now it looks like I got left side receding with the rest of the hairline straight. They did say what for full results but I can't see a hairline magically growing out of nowhere.
