WORTH IT$3,320
I had my hair transplant done by Dr. Dogan Turan trough the service/marketing company Estegrande.
The surgery was done in the Academic Hospital and I did sleep in the Holiday Inn Express hotel. The staff doesn't speak English but Dr. Dogan Turan does and there is a translator in the hospital all the time and you have a person helping with all the question and/or needed translations trough whatsapp almost 24x7 (as long as person doesn't sleep).

I could choose for FUE or DHI implementing. Even that I wasn't sure if it would make a big difference I did choose for DHI because I liked the fact that the doctor could choose on the spot how and where to put hairs.

I didn't know that Dr. Dogan Turan doesn't do the whole procedure by himself but the way the do it was absolutely fine. Dr. Dogan Turan sets the hairline together with and assistent doctor. He then starts the surgery and sets your hairline / first grafts (the most important one I think).

Dr. Dogan Turan is walking and overseeing between the rooms and checks in like every half hour / hour and he also did finish the procedure and I could feel/see that he was putting absolute effort the put the needed details in.

It took almost 12 hours to finish because I did bleed a lot (don't know why) but the were patient and worked even they were tired.

Package was 2500 euro with two nights included, breakfast included, al taxi service (company had own drivers) and aftercare package (panthenol and HairMD after transplant shampoo). They try to sell you more (expensive) shampoo but you don't have to, if you choose not to buy the will recommed later (trough whatsapp) to buy Sebamed Shampoo and help you with everything (no hard feelings there).

Will update during the process.

Hi, do you know what the actual hospital or surgery was called please as I'm talking to Este Grande about this procedure but they are not rated on What Clinic nor is Dr Dogan Turan registered with ISHRS. I have found a fair bit on Dr Turan which looks good to me but very little in the way of reviews. Again the same with Este Grande which is why I want to find out as much as I can as well as actual patients recommendations rather than just seeing all the photos they send/post. Thanks

Hello there, Dr Dogan Turan is one of the Doctor of esteGrande. The hospital has many dermatologists ,doctors ,nurses and plastic surgeons. They have a big team. Hairtransplant can operate with doctors and nurses legally in Turkey. I had operation in this hospital. I am really satisfied with the result. They are helpful. My medical representative helped me after the surgery when I back home.

Hi Jasper, I also had my HT operation done by Dr. Dogan Turan through FUECAPILAR. You can check my profile to review my photos - I am post-op Month 5. In my case, Dr. Turan performed the implant procedure entirely; each and every graft was implanted by him personally. This was one of the thing I was made sure prior to the surgery. I paid 2590€ with 3 nights accommodation + all transfers + my personal translator who sat next to me the entire time in the operation room + medications, sebamed shampoo and d-panthenol lotion etc. Honestly, Dr. Turan didn´t try to sell me anything else - guess one of the benefits of being his patient directly instead of an agency. Do you have your current photos?

Update after 11 monthes

Hereby are some recent pictures how my hair looks after 11 months.
The back, where we put only the hairs left (focus on front) isn't totally covered but overall satisfied.

I think what it's the most frustrating is that my hair was not 'natural smooth'. If I did come out of the shower I had to get it the 'correct way' directly or it was impossible. But that's minor.

I am sorry what do you mean "my hair was not 'natural smooth"?
