FUE • 3500 Grafts • 18mo post-op

Best decision I ever made

Where do I even start? I researched clinics for over a year before choosing Hermest Hair Transplant Clinic and I'm so glad I did. Dr. Dr. Ahmet Murat personally handled everything and was incredibly skilled. Had 3500 grafts FUE done and the results have been phenomenal. The facility was clean and modern, staff was friendly and attentive. Recovery was smoother than expected — I was back to work in about a week. 18 months in and my hair looks better than it did in my twenties. My confidence is through the roof. At $4,100, it was a fraction of what I was quoted back home.If you're on the fence, just do it.

Pros

  • + Comfortable procedure
  • + Airport transfer included
  • + Clean facility
  • + Detailed consultation

FUT • 3200 Grafts • 5mo post-op

Very good but not perfect

I chose Hermest Hair Transplant Clinic after extensive research and I'm mostly very satisfied. Dr. Dr. Ahmet Murat personally handled everything and was incredibly skilled. FUT with 3200 grafts. The procedure itself went smoothly and the staff was great. At 5 months post-op, I'd say I'm at about 85% of what I hoped for. The hairline is excellent but the crown could use a bit more density. The clinic has been responsive to my follow-up questions. I'd give them a strong recommendation with realistic expectations — no transplant is going to give you the hair you had at 18.

Pros

  • + Natural hairline design
  • + Clean facility
  • + Airport transfer included

I chose Hermest Hair Transplant Clinic after extensive research and I'm mostly very satisfied. The surgeon was skilled and efficient. DHI with 2800 grafts.
