Thoughtful Doctor, Assistants and Nurses -top of the Art FUT — a lot done by the Doctor himself 2600graft safe despite of Corona

UPDATED FROM Thomas Falkner

1 Yr Post OP to little density.

$734
Had to do a second one - but not with Apaydin. It seems that maybe 50% of the crafts grew strong hair. The separation of the tissue was done only with magnifying glasses, not microscope, which would be the quality standard.
Also the scar in the donor area is very wide and raised. Much in contrast of the scar of my second FUT procedure with Dr. Karadeniz.

Thoughtful Doctor, Assistants and Nurses -top of the Art FUT — a lot done by the Doctor himself— safe despite of Corona

You will not read "amazing experience" in my review, and I find these untrustworthy. Because in the end, it's an operation: There are needles, painkillers, swellings, strange sensations, hours of lying down and pushing your chin to your chest. Simple: There is blood. You have to be willing to have that for your hair transplant.

Still, the team made me feel safe in all of this, the doctor knows what he's doing. He answered a lot of my questions beforehand, but in the end, he made his own decisions. That is probably much safer than to go with all the wishes of the patient. Still, 100% transparency would have been nice, but for that, the consultation would have taken much longer. His English is great, mine is not perfect either.

For young patients with NW 3 FUT is the best option to use your donor area the most effective and to not shave your head. 

The stapled wound in the back of your head is painful to sleep on for the first week at least. 

And it will take weeks to heal and months to be representable again.

Was your scalp loose for the FUT or did you have to do stretching exercises weeks before? I'd like an FUT but my scalp is tight.
I actually didn't know about the stretching exercises before I put my appointment with Apaydin on short notice, so I only had about a week of stretching. But it would have been better to have done the stretching for a longer time, as the maximum of grafts was limited to 2600 and I had a pulling sensation on the back of my head for about two weeks after the opoeration.
I guess, this would have been easier with more stretching.

How’s the results now???
