Is Asmed Still One Of The Best For Hairlines?

[gazzadasnail]

You've already have 5k grafts? Then that is a poor transplant as it wasn't the best usage of grafts in terms of density or naturalness. Now you really ought not to lower the hairline too much because you're probably getting close to donor depletion and could develop balding at the back too. I can see why you were dissatisfied even more now. High NWs need to do research and find a specialist who specifically deals with them over usual good surgeons who are more used to dealing with lower NWs. Dr Umar in the states is good with high norwoods for example but I haven't really looked into this, just be careful as once the grafts are moved, it's a lot of effort, time and money to relocate them.

I'm personally against SMP for several reasons. It feels like scalp damage to me, I like tattoos but on my head it seems crazy. On top of that it doesn't look right on those with light hair/skin/short hair, never seen a natural result on such guys. I've seen SMP look okay with long hair but ironically with almost normal density or it looks obvious especially obvious.

Yes but it has improved my hair a lot compared to what it was to be honest. It's mainly the hairline that is poor. The main reason for the smp was the donor area because as you said that may look quite thin after this so I was hoping that would disguise it.

I'm also worried in case I get to Asmed next month and Erdogan says that my donor area is unsuitable or there is not enough left. He has quoted me 3000 grafts.

My hair loss has progressed very slowly though for the last 12 years but I'm hoping worst case scenario I can eventually use beard hair, body hair etc and whatever to fill in the areas at the back and add density. Sounds crazy but I'm desperate. I feel like I'm planning my whole life around relocating hair to cover up this pathetic disease.

Am i failing to see where the hairloss is here wtf ? Your hairline looks absolutely fine. Does look like diffuse thinning in back but as for the hairline ...uhhh....

 

[Andrew11]

I would in this case focus on the thinning with meds rather than even touch the hairline.... seems fine

 

[Andrew11]

Nvm saw that it was your second transplant.. i guess great job on the first than lol !

that middle hair transplant is very good, dense and natural

He got a model contract after that surgery. Only hair right? Does nothing to facial aesthetics? hehe oh boy.

Go for it but be realistic less you'll be disappointed. Getting a normal head of hair is off in most cases of advanced loss. Some guys luck out with tons of scalp donor like 10k but even then if the calibre is not adequate (Joe Tillman is an example and showed his situation) it will be situational coverage at best. And take into account that even top class surgeons can't truly mimic the natural angulations of native hair so it may appear artificial, especially if there is no native hair on top to blend in the work. Beard and body hairs are fillers and look even more different, they don't look like scalp hair or have the same cycles but Dr Umer does some good work with this.

I am really involved in the french hair transplant forum, and the feeling here is that Koray is not the number 1 anymore!
Because he is turning into a firm. Not doing the job himself anymore and doing 3 to 4 surgery per day.

dr freitas and coutos seem to be the top right now. But a lot of transplant are made with easy patient ( low norwood, no diffuse, dark hair, low contrast with skin)

However dr Meddeb in tunisia is getting better and better, maybe he will be the next koray. ( Like koray in 2014-2015)

Koray isnt even the top 10 anymore any no one in their right mind should consider him for a number of reasons:

where did all these new techs come from? .

Syria

Had a question myself though. Do you know of any thread on this forum that specifically discusses/shows what you should pay attention to before getting a hair transplant?

F.e. a diffuser should only get hairs transplanted in areas that are almost bald (my left temple has few hairs left, I wouldn't mind the collateral loss of 30 hairs if I get 200 hairs instead in that area). Another factor could be, who's going to do the harvesting, a Doctor, an assistant, a machine etc.

I am very frustrated over the fact that my former GP f*cking lied to me and ruined my hair (it's all relative). After 8 years of anger ... nothing changed. So might as well try to improve it instead of keep hanging on to the past (easier said than done). I have been on finasteride since 1 January 2014. Never tried minoxidil since it's not easily available in the EU country I live in.

Hope you could provide a link. Thanks in advance.

I really wish there was a guide for hair transplants, I know a few people wanted to make one back in the day. It is better if you scroll through this section and read the posts from experienced members in particular as well as external research, both will help you.

GPs can be useless as hell. "Jack of all trades and Master of none," unfortunately many live up to that.

In regards to your questions, if the area is almost dead, then you may as well go for surgery as there is no cosmetic loss. Even if it's in the process of miniaturising badly (not on finasteride or not responding to it), you should still go for it as the cosmetic gain will out weigh the loss. Incisions should always be made by the senior doctor since that is the artistic distribution of grafts, usually the residents or technicians (skilled and long term staff ideally) do the implantation and extraction to an extent which is easier.

If you are looking for a quality hair transplant agency and a good price range i would reccommend somewhere like megahair trans. They did a great job with my hair. Doctor.Gulten unveren i would like to thank her

Is Asmed still getting good results? I am considering him but heard he is now doing more patients in a day and as a result recent results have been bad.... i am confused.

 

[ahmeda]

Are you joking? Look around the other forums as well, Asmed is churning out botch job after botch job, don't be an idiot and go with this hair mill, it is an enormous risk and NOT worth it trust me

oh wow where else is the negative? I am deciding between Hasson & Wong and Asmed. What do you think of H&W?

Koray isnt even the top 10 anymore any no one in their right mind should consider him for a number of reasons:

1. He is barely involved in the surgery and only pops in to do the incisions hastily, he doesn't even supervise the tech teams, only on a small monitor from his throne-room
2. There has been a number of questionable to down-right failed results in the past two years with this guy, either low density, doubles in the hairline, unnatural looking hairline design etc, this is not surprising as like i said, he is barely involved and cannot correct the 20 year old techs with barely any experience putting grafts in your head.
3. he is even more an FUE factory now than before, doing up to 9 surgeries a day now, it is insane, where did all these new techs come from? they barely have any experience and he is letting them put holes in peoples heads, no wonder we are seeing sh*t results from this guy now.

oh so the ASMED consultant said they now do 5-7 surgeries a day haha maybe Hasson & Wong is my best option. I just want the best results.
