So on 28/09/2018 I got a FUE hair transplant which consists of approximately 2,300 graft's. I am a black female who suffers from genetic hair loss and as a result I have had a receding hairline for as long as I can remember.

I am sooooo happy to finally see a black female with my hair style get a FUE done in Turkey! Results look great! I have been researching and doing consults for an entire year but never found reviews with a short buzzed cut which is what I wear. I have Alopecia and had a SMP(scalp micropigmentation) done 4 years ago. My hair is turning grey now so the dark ink on my scalp is very noticeable. FUE here is way too expensive so I want to go to Turkey as I'm not rich! My other problem is that the SMP goes down too far on my forehead and several doctors in my consults suggested that I have a couple of inches taken off by laser before I get the FUE. Have not been able to find anyone here in Kentucky to laser it off yet but still searching. Did you travel to Turkey alone? I don't have a problem traveling alone, just curious. Again. THANK YOU FOR POSTING YOUR JOURNEY! You give me hope.

Hiya, I’m so glad I could help you by posting. I advise you to contact Longevita with photos so that they can advise you accordingly. I travelled with my mother and youngest son, but you could honestly travel alone for this as you don’t get out to sleep or anything. Just local anaesthetic. Longevita honestly made everything a dream, hotel was amazing and transfer to and from hotel to airport was on time with a very friendly driver. If you do go with them I should advise you that transfers to the hospital from hotel and back aren’t included, but the Journey isn’t far. Please feel free to ask anymore questions and check out my 6 month pics that I just uploaded. x

What doctor you use ?

It was actually done by nurses and not the doctor. The doctor just oversaw everything. Hope this helps

I’m very sorry to hear that. I’ve seen other people who aren’t satisfied with there results with Longevita also. Have you contacted them for a revision?

No thanks for them to ruin me even more

Glad that you had a good experience. My experience with them was awful and they don't care for patients aftercare once they have there money and leave there country.

I’m still very happy with my results and have been told by Longevita that I’ve reached 70% density. I’m happy with the density as I do not want It to be too thick because that would make my hairline look unrealistic. I would advise anyone who wants to do toe surgery to go ahead with it. I’m now waiting for the rest of my hair to get a little longer so that I can wear it out.. something I never ever had the confidence to do prior to getting this procedure done. It has truly been life changing.

Looks really great. Not everyone get satisfied even with the same clinic that you are satisfied today. It's a game of luck to my opinion because some people still complain to the best clinics.

Thank you! This is very true. Every clinic will have clients that are satisfied and clients who are not satisfied. It’s truly about luck!

Great results! Thank you for sharing! I have been a bit apprehensive about using them but after seeing your results i might go ahead with them. Do you mind confirming who actually did procedure so I can ask for the same. Was it the actual doctor or the technicians? Thank you

Hello, I had a consultation with the doctor but it was the technicians who did the procedure
April 14, 2019
Thank you so much. I will definitely go ahead with it.

reckon it will get denser over the months?

Well apparently I’m at around 70% so I’m not expecting a huge increase to be honest

Fair enough. In regards to our hair type did they mention the difficulty in extracting our type of hair ? And why did you choose FUE over FUT ?
User Avatar
May 1, 2019
No they didn’t mention anything about the fact I have Afro hair. I chose fue over fut as I didn’t want a massive scar on my head and the fact that I had seen other black people have fue done despite the fact that it apparently doesn’t work or isn’t as successful on people with our hair type. I guess it was a risk and it paid off! :)

No their wasn’t any mention and I chose fue over fue due to the big scar that fut leaves. I’ll upload a pic today :)
