when I reach Istanbul, a Driver was waiting for me, drove me to the hotel beside the hospital, the day after I went early morning at 8am to make blood test and check before The procedure. we discussed the hair lines, and other questions I had in mind, the procedure was very smooth everything was in time, during the procedure the only bad thing is the Anesthesia was annoying but fair. the first 3 hours was anesthesia by the nurses and opening channels by the doctor. I had lunch after then we spend another 3 hours with the nurses and the doctor transplanting. after we finish, they drove me back to the hotel. the post 6 hours post operation was tough, I couldn't set down or lay back, Dizziness was very bad back then. Overall they really know what they are doing and very sincere.

Good report.
Look after yourself and your grafts and read some of the reviews here so that you understand how the first few weeks will go.

Dear Eva, Media make it easier comparing to reality, maybe because it's medically not a surgery like FUT, there is no cutting and stitching. However when you want to choose a place to make this procedure is the hygiene is very important so u don't get infected, that's why I have choose a plastic hospital called Estithica that have 5 hospitals around Istanbul , not a clinic. If you like to have a contact please let me know Sincerely Khaled

Khaled,i t looks like you have removed all of the scabs. We usually are (over) cautious but it looks like you have removed all of them. You might get some white crusts too in the first couple of weeks. You will find this in pics of other reviews of people in week 2.

Yes, I did on the 10th day as Doctor recommendation to avoid graft from getting out of air and die
