Hair transplant failure after 8 months with a top doctor?

[milkman55]

Hello,

I had an FUE transplant for 1200 grafts with a top doctor in NYC 8 months ago. The transplant was only to the temples, mostly to the left side. However, I'm worried about how thin the hair currently is. Is this a failed transplant, or should I wait a few more months to see if it improves? I'm quite disappointed at this point because of how it looks and how much I spent ($11k).

1200 grafts for your left temple?

No the amount was between both temples, but more was placed of the left side.

Considering the thickness of your hair the result pretty bad. I wouldnt be satisfied.

Disappointing but thanks for the feedback.

Doesn't look like a failure just yet. I am guessing you went to Feller and Bloxham? Which one did it? I would contact them and discuss it with them. Feller and Bloxham are very good ethical doctors.

I went to a different doctor, but still in the same category as them.

It's tough when you spend good money like that knowing you could have gone to the best in Turkey and paid 1/3 the price. I have seen cases where some were late bloomers. Hopefully yours will be more like that. If not, you will have to get it filled in again to add more density. @Wolf Pack

Looks more like 120. Sue the bastards!

It's not a failure at all and that will thicken a bit more in the months to come. It's reality for a transplant with fine/medium hair and also 1200 grafts. Needed full frontal third rebuild and 2500 grafts with Dr Erdogan/Demirsoy if Turkey or B1sanga type in Europe. Also the incision angles don't look too aesthetic but passable.

All in all give it a full 18 months before you do anything..

Who do you feel are the top doctors in Turkey? Thoughts on Ahd clinic?

Vera Clinic all day of the week. Just won best Clinic in Europe at the European Medical Awards. Am so pleased with my results thus far (5 months post hair transplant)

Recently I like work by Dr Pekiner. @PRIMEN knows more than me about Turkey. He has a really good transplant result in my opinion.
