hi all,

Is there a forum where customers can share their hair trasnplant experience with various clinics?
I had an hair transplant in Istanbul, 15 months ago, and it was not successful. I would like to share my story, with names and details.
I noticed some of those clinics must invest a lot in their google review rankings because the one I have been has amazing reviews, but unbelievably, I got operated not by the doctor but by some young lady never seen before. I have reasons to think I have been used for the benefits of practice. I tried to leave a review, but it wasn´t published, so there must be some lobby there.
So ya, I would like to bring my testimony and it would be nice if there was a space to do so.
thank you
Alex

I've done the procedure in 2022 and my experiencewith Istanbul Hair Center is mixed/negative. I'm going to list just the facts objectively: I have been promised 3500/4000 fue, on my forehead and crown. After the transplant I had no way to understand how much I actually got.
I first met a doctor in their studio, with a reassuring manners and knowledge, I quickly liked him and the team and decided chose this clinic.
On the day of the operation, surprisingly the doctor was not present, he wasn't the one who operated me. I got the transplant done by 2 young foreign ladies.
After more than 2 years I believe I lack density, the main part I wanted to fix was the forehead and I'm not satisfied.
In the crown area, even worse, it seems as if nothing has been transplanted.
I am adding photos of the implanted grafts and the situation recently. It can be seen that hair did grow in the front but lacking density right behind...
On their defence, the price was extremely cheap, 1200USD, but in hindsight, I'd have rather have spent the full price and get the promised results.
