My 3rd FUT! - Istanbul, Turkey

Multiple angles, multiple pictures on post - FUE op. I hope the scabs goes on time and have higher success this time. In 2014 I may have went easy on post - operation directions that my have reduced the success to 70% or so. Lesson learned.

Full Confidence is something I only give to very close friends and family members, the professionally, transparency and outstanding results I got with Dr. Ilker Apaydin since my first FUT operation in 2009 made me feel that trust and go confidently back and ask for more cosmetic solutions for hair in 2011, 2014 then in 2021. The name he selected for his clinic “New Age” reflects true outcomes where you get your age matching your appearance (if not looking younger) when it comes to surgery quality, post - op results and the way the transplanted hair looks over years. Its actually a combination of good case - by - case evaluation, design of solution and “architecture” by Dr. Ilker that should and must be followed by well adherence and good “maintenance” by the patient to creat maximum benefits of the work done at surgery. The clinic team are simply amazing, I have been in contact with some of them over the yeas and they become friends whom you exchange new years greetings like Ms. Ayla and others like Ms. Cansu I met at latest consultation and surgery and amazed my with her dedication, knowledge, kindness and helpfulness. The nurses are a group of super women who works precisely and professionally like those artists who make the beautiful hand-made carpets we see and stand staring admiring the art and precision. This perfect team made my go back and choose the same team in Istanbul every time I thought I need an additional cosmetic hair adjustment.

I had my concerns that using a medication for almost a decade most have some issues so I decided to redoce the dosage, I started taking Propecia when I was 28 years old and decided to start reducing the intake 9 years later in 2018. Didn’t experience much side effects but thought I can give it a try and see. I did not discontinue taking the 1mg pill suddenly but started skipping 2-, then 3 them 5 days a week till I stopped almost for a year. I did not lose the hair transplanted in 2009, 2011 or 2014 FUTs but started to have thinner original hair Propecia helped maintaining and keeping all these years. I admit also that I got too busy to do PRPs or Laser comb treatments so i jot a bit thinner on forehead side and less on top/crow side. The good thing that it looked like normal aging and these FUTs / medication bought me a full decade of hire were I got married and had some more self - confidence and more good photos and memories
