AndrewHas Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Hello, this Andrew Has from US. Wanted to share a short story of my journey here as I know there as some of you that been into this field for a long time. Any comment would be appreciated.I have decided to get my hair done about a year ago and was looking into clinics in Istanbul as I was on a tight budget to be honest. Got some recommendations from some friends and got quotes from these clinics. Norwood was the most affordable and seemed decent.Got quoted 1300 euro for 2800 grafts for the package including accommodation and transportation. I had to buy my flight tickets which was okay. Stayed there for 3 days and had my transplant done on the second. Careful examination and planning by the specialist before starting which was reassuring. It took around 5.5 hours to get it done. Very easy and comfortable than I have imagined. Last day, I had my check up and first washing by the specialist. Was given detailed instructions before I went to the airport.The hardest part for me was the waiting. Got super anxious during this process as it takes time to see what you have dreamed of. Now, I am at my 6th month mark and I think everything went as planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member StillAlive Posted March 16, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted March 16, 2023 To be honest you did not even need a hair transplant at all, but yeah, it looks like it went super smoothly, enjoy EVEN MORE hair than the average NW1 human Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not too clued up on the medication side of things tbh but I see the more experienced members mention finasteride, minoxidil & dutasteride quite a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted April 3, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 3, 2023 I didn't expect a result this good for that low price. But I must confess, it does look pretty good. Can we get an HD closeup of the hairline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
