Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Although I found this site for an entirely different reason. I came across some reviews for hair transplant, I always thought there wasn't anything I could do regarding my hair problem. So after reading a few reviews and especially about afro hair, I was encouraged that a hair transplant could be for me.
After some more reading and researching I came across 2 American Drs, one gave me a quote of roughly $7000, the other was unfortunately too busy to get back to me to offer me a quote. After much thought, I felt if the cost range was around $7000 just for the procedure, it was too much as i'll have to factor in travel and accommodation costs. This meant it would be in the same price range as UK Drs. After stalking a fellow RealSelfer CaliD (thanks btw), he helped me to find Transest and AEK Hair Institute and in Turkey.
Because I had grown my hair quiet long I wasn't happy to shave it off for the procedure, but Dr Karadeniz from AEK Hair Institute stated he could perform a FUSS aka FUT which would mean no shaving. He also adds 'I do the graft harvesting procedure and the recipient site incisions. My assistants do graft placing while under my supervision'. I am very pleased with this.
I have tried everything to grow the edges (from Jamaican castor oil, Inversion method, every and any oil treatment and anything to promote hair growth for my edges).
My hope is there will be a vast improvement on my edges and if possible to slightly lower the hairline with the grafts.
Dr Karadeniz has estimated i'll need around 2000 grafts.
Price includes:
2 nights accommodation at 5-star hotel next to clinic
2 way airport transfers
Food and drinks during surgical procedure
All medications
Shampoo and moisturiser for aftercare
Camouflage hat
Washing the day after surgery with detailed instructions on aftercare.
So far I'm very pleased with my final choice and I'm very excited to see the outcome of this procedure.

Provider Review
Dr Karadeniz is highly professional, attentive and he fors make you feel as if you are a valued individual. I as you have read had a great experience with him. My edges grew, I suffered no damage to my scalp. He still responds to my questions quickly even after a year. Very good aftercare in my experience. If you can't tell, I highly recommend him. I am now travelling again to Turkey for Round 2. He is worth the hype for the personalised experience he provides.
