The hair was growing, but very less in density and less than expectation, it is not comparing with the price I paid 3750 euro for the treatment (3400 grafts, which only well covers 1/4 of the bald area) and it is not included the hotel, tickets and so on. I think it is best to look another option in Istanbul, since now in Turkey there are a lot clinics with specialized doctor which offer best price and best results.

as the doctor planned to well cover 1/2 bald area but in reality only 1/4 area is well covered and I think it is because of the more contribution of the vellus hairs that still remain in the hairlines otherwise it is not well covered as well. In my opinion, it is not worth to be compared with the result I get and the price I spent, but you can value and asses it by yours. hope it can give another point of view.
Thank you for sharing.The result is poor.Low density.Cover only 1/4 of scalp.I think they planted 3000 grafts for €3750.You have to call New Age clinic that you are not satisfied with the result.Ask for recorrection guarantee.

final opinion on new age

I'm not quite happy with the result, because it is very poor in density, I think it is not reached 3400 grafts as they mentioned, it is not the same density between frontal and the area behind the hair line. From 1-10 scale, personally I will only say 6.5. I can understand if we want much more density we should do HT again and pay more. I would rather go to other clinic in Turkey that offers fix price for numerous extracted grafts with good reputation. There are a lot clinics in Turkey that has a good reputation, even they are non-surgeon clinics. It is depend on you, which one do you choose. For me I'm a bit regret because pay too much money with unsatisfy result.

I’m sorry that your FUE didn’t turn out how you’d hoped. especially at the price you paid. For anyone else on this review, I can highly recommend Dr Cinik. Check out my review to follow my progress. Best of luck to you man!
Hi, sorry, without posting images it's really hard to judge. From my own research, I'm guessing this is your first transplant- this is something that hair surgeons do NOT tell patients- unless u go to someone who is 100% honest. They do NOT cover both front and crown/ top in the same procedure. IF they do, and that's IF the patient wants both parts done on same day- you will end up with less density. The procedure MUST be split into two even if you're having as little as 2k grafts in the frontal. Usually in Turkey, they will try to cover the frontal as best they can but leave a few for top (which is why u will see in a lot of reviews the frontal looks full) but the top still looks thin. The patient has to go back for a second one- but that's usually not what they tell u. Because most people do not want to spend more money hence if u tell them that from the start, they will pick another clinic that will tell them we can do both front/ crown same time. I hope this helps
