I had my HT with Diamond Hair Clinic on 09/02/20 performed by Dr Mehmet Demircioglu. I am now 13 days' post op and my review covers my experience until this date. Please note - I cannot express my opinions/feelings on the finished article as I'm a long way from that point. My review reflects my journey so far. After the booking process I was shown the face & vehicle reg of my taxi transfer driver who picked me up from Istanbul airport & took me to the hotel. The hotel is a 5* hotel located in Taksim, a lively part of the city centre in close proximity to restaurants, shops etc. The following morning after a large breakfast (very nice may I add), I was picked up by a pre-arranged taxi & taken to the hospital where I met the Doctor. He made me feel at ease and before my operation I had a pre-operation consultation with the Dr answering my questions. Pre-photographs were taken. Doctor D created a natural hairline which contained irregular areas and little waves in order to appear natural. The agreed graft number was 5100 grafts, 4500 from donor area and 600 from beard to be carried out in one session in order to provide high density in the implanted area. My head was shaved, a drip was fed into my arm and the numbing injections took place. This was a mixture of pain-free anaesthesia and regular injections. I didn't count the amount exactly, but I estimate 40-60 injections in total. About 10 hurt, but the pain honestly is not that bad. The entire procedure was pain free, I didn't feel a thing. My operation type was "Sapphire Fue Technique". The technicians extracted the grafts and the Dr opened my channels with the sapphire blade. Post-op photographs were then taken. After the operation the Doctor explained the aftercare which includes the washing process, the drugs/antibiotics, sleeping position and important points such as avoiding sweating, do not raise blood pressure and the standard points. The excess blood was cleaned, I was bandaged up, any other questions answered and then I was taken to the hotel. The total op time was circa 10 hours. I rested in the hotel the next day. The following day I was taken to the hospital and the Dr undertook my wash directly. I was provided with a neck pillow and the antibiotics/drugs. After the op Dr D gave me his personal number, and every day I have been in contact with him, sending photos after every wash for 10 days. I washed all my scabs off yesterday. All in all, the whole experience has been very positive, pain-free and has run very smoothly. I would recommend the services of Diamond Hair Clinic to anyone interested in having a hair transplant. *As stated previously, I cannot comment on the "finished article" as I'm 12 months away from the expected results. My review covers my experience over the past fortnight.
