N.B.: MtF, 41 y.o.

About 7 months ago, I had a hair transplantation done in Istanbul (plz refer to my previous post .)

Here is my before/after/in-between update.

Cheers ^_^

P.S. I am happy with the result ^_^

P.P.S: do not hesitate to proceed =) This is a very... reliable and well established and safe procedure that is definitely changed the way I look =) I would say that the hairline is one of the most crucial visual face features =) I've shared my experience in the comment below.

N.B.: it was FUE (some improoved variation of it: individual drafts).

Very cool 😎I definitely need to also do this but am not sure with which one to go, elitehair or some other but your result looks very appealing. Congrats! How much did you pay for everything including flights?

I am not sure about how relevant would be flights price — it depends on your initial destination and types of visa you might need (hence, the route). I used Turkish Airlines direct flights.

But the procedure price started at €900 (no hotel, no post-op care pack) i went with this + additional pack for sedation and post-care pack In total it was ~1350€

Wow that’s really reasonable and what a difference it makes!!

I would say, that Post-Care pack might be something I could get on iHerb for about 100 EUR or less: biotin capsules/shampoo.

And minoxidil from local pharmacy. That might be enough. (Just to clarify there were no minoxidil in their post-care pack.)

It was FUE (individual drafts).
Donor area: all across the back head and sides: imagine the hairline of V. V. Lenin and invert it =)

Are you allowed to say who you went to? I knkw you mentioned pricing in another comment, but I'd rather look into somewhere that has been recognised as safe and reliable by others than search for somewhere and end up going to some place that's... less so.

It was this clinic: https://landing-en.promedhair.com/

I would say, that accompaniment was excellent - they handled all the transfers (from airport to hotel, from hotel to clinic for the first consultation, then back and forth to the procedure, then there and back again to the review/first washing, then back to airport) on their branded cars.

During the consultation there was ”personal” multi-language translator (rus/eng/french <-> turk ).

All positive experience.

Thank you so much for this! Would you say that you'd also trust going there for a rhinoplasty? I was thinking of getting my hairline and a rhinoplasty done at the same time 😂

I do not know - so do not have opinion on the rhinoplasty.

(Personally I would go to my beloved surgeon Anna Sluzky, who did my FFS, but I am biased here =)

(For my FFS plz refer to: Post-Op, 18 days Post-Op, 40 days )

(I am planning my FemLAR surgery with her.)

Nice! I had mine 3 months ago, so I'm still waiting for hairs to start growing

My haircut could have been longer =)

Unfortunately, last time I was at my hairdresser, i said: “i want it a bit shorter in the back”, and she said: “SAY NO MORE!” and re-created my surgical haircut (which was done in the clinic during the transplantation - so literally shaved off sides and back =)

How unfortunate! (lol)

So, regrowing again =)

Fortunately i love shorter haircuts.

Have to ask how much hair loos did you have. I have started researching having it done. But would rather get info from other girls. You look awesome by the way😀

Well, apart from the regular M-shape hairline (photos attached above) not much.

(But compared to my teen-years, the volume (not the area) was about half, probably :)

Looks amazing! I was thinking of going this way (covered by my insurance), but it’s too advanced.

I got additional sedation — almost no pain (when it become sensible at the end of the procedure — I have told them and they added a couple of shots into scalp — so, was all good).

And 3 last days was dedicated to this hairtransplant procedure.

So did you do hairline advancement too or just the transplant

Could you plz define both?

I had a hair transplant: individual hair grafts were transplanted from the back to the front to adjust the hairline.
