3418 Grafts with Dr. Ulusan

"I had my hair transplant with Dr. Ulusan in Izmir, Turkey, and I received 3418 grafts in total. The operation itself was surprisingly comfortable, although I have to be honest—those first 15 minutes of anesthesia shots were a total 'preview of hell.' However, once that part was over, everything went smoothly. I stayed in Izmir for a week, and since the recovery was quite fast, I was even able to spend my last few days touring the city.
I want to be real about the journey: the shock loss phase was honestly depressing. It was tough to look in the mirror for a while, so my best advice is to just forget mirrors exist for a bit and trust the process. As the hair started to grow back stronger, my confidence returned month by month. I’m now at the 9-month mark and I absolutely love the way I look; I’m very happy with the density. My new mission is to protect my native hair. I’m not currently using any meds like Finasteride or Minoxidil, but I’m researching stem cell therapy as an alternative and hope it works out.
