Originally I settled for a different hair clinic of whom I paid £500 deposit for, after more careful valuation I decided not to use this company as I found a lot of bad reviews and certainly put me off. I opted for Diamond hair clinic as they seemed more professional with information and their 1 patient rule! I Left Edinburgh on the 6th of august to Istanbul, operation was on the 7th. From the airport taxi to the hotel and hotel to hospital was very good no problems at all. And same taxi to airport was on time and efficient. the hotel was really nice, clean and the food was nice too. Day of the op, left the hotel at 7:30am got to the hospital around 8. Waited in reception around 20 mins and the nurse came and got me and I met Dr Mehmet Demircioglu in his office and was very friendly who explained everting clearly and made me feel at ease. The nurse took blood and left a cannula in place was pain relief later. The reason for them to take blood is to check for diseases like hepatitis, hiv etc Dr Mehmet then came to the theatre to draw on my new hairline, took around 45 mins to make sure it was what I wanted. Next stage was numbing of the back of my head (donor area) and extract hair. This was quite a painful part of the procedure the numbing was uncomfortable at times but didn’t last too long before feeling nothing. This took around 3 hours. Had a pizza for lunch then back to the theatre, this stage was numbing of the recipient area (receded area) then Dr Mehmet done the FUE cut along my scalp and the insertions for the grafts to be implanted. This was done within 3.5 hours. Left the hospital after Dr Mehmet explained the rules to follow around 6:30pm back to the hotel with pain relief and a large kit of shampoos etc which was all included in the price. I paid 4500€, a bit more expensive but this is a life changing decision and best to pay more for a professional than the many amateurs around Turkey. I would have no problems recommending friends and family about Dr Mehmet at Diamond Hair Clinic, but do plenty research before you decide but I can’t thank the Dr enough this far, I see progress happening can’t wait to see it in a few months.
