      @@jaimerodriguez1550You see the same affordable prices in the EU. The problem in the US is that there's not a higher power (i.e. the government) negotiating the prices down. That's why big pharma in the US can raise the prices however they see fit forming oligopolies (they only call it a price cartel after they've been sentenced by a court, but not with the corrupt US justice system). Just look at insulin: 90 % of all insulin comes from 3 companies (Eli Lilly, Sanofi, and Novo Nordisk) and insulin prices have gone up 10 times from 96 to 2016, even though the patents have long expired. Additionally, the entire health care industry is run by the insurance companies, which is why something can cost 6000 USD to someone without insurance and 100 USD to someone with one. The entire system is corrupted through and through.

    I went to Istanbul a little over 4 years ago and got a life changing hair transplant. Then I went back two years later and did a second one to finish up around the crown of the head. The results are 10/10. Meanwhile my friend opted to stay in the US and do his there - he spent more than 5 times as much as me and now needs corrective surgery. He was very demoralized at the shoddy results and scarring. The technology and level of experience pales in comparison to the cosmetic industry in Turkey especially when it comes to hair transplantation. I went from a Norwood VI to now having a full head of voluminous hair thanks to Dr. Çinik. Perfect hairline. Results are so good, it’s Impossible to recognize that I had one. Forever grateful.

      @@Youve_GotABeard Thank you sir. I will first see what some local dr in America could do--my wild guess is I wouldn't need but 1000-2000 transplants to cover the two thinning sides of my forehead; the forehead does have a thick central strip and the sides are really really thick hair, which I use to comb-over. I can live with the greatly thinned out crowd. Thanks again.

      @@meengla just to clarify… what you mean when you speak of how many transplants is “grafts”. For instance, I had 3,900 grafts the first transplant and around 3,000 the second one. I really really recommend going to Istanbul for the transplant. I have little faith in American hair doctors. They always seem to want to do FUT technique - but that sucks. They will tell you it is recommended for some individuals on a case by case basis over the FUE method. If you have a strong donor area (lots of density on the sides and back of the head), you should definitely get FUE - NOT FUT (which leaves scarring). The precision extraction of the hair follicles used in the FUE method is virtually a non issue when it comes to scarring. I can’t recommend Istanbul hair clinics enough. Don’t be afraid or reluctant because it is far away or a foreign country. Do your research and choose one. They are all very skilled, high quality and super professional. If you want to know the clinic I went to I can also share that. Best luck 🍀

I know, our health care may also have problems, but it cannot possibly be as nearly bad as what you have in the US. You people have to consider ''Should I risk dying or should I call an ambulance?'', that's something happens only in the US. My advice to people who consider coming here for health related issues, do your due diligence and get as much information about the doctor as you can, then you should be OK, I am pretty sure, 90% of the time a better doctor will be taking care of you here than what you could get in the US, unless you are super rich.

    FUT May mean you can’t have very short hair in the back that may reveal the grafting harvesting area and the scar. I’ve seen some very bad and ugly scars from FUT (just people on the street or at the gym).
    I personally would opt to more advanced FUE harvesting method, preferably with the robot Artas. For more natural look and less scarring (even though scarring can be there as well.. )

      Then he should just go to turkey and do it again. I don't see anything wrong with doing that. All that accept and love yourself is bullshit, tell that to me when women don't wear make up, do boob jobs, plastic surgery, dress nicely, etc.

    Always try medication for 9 months before taking the surgical route. Don’t panic and take ur time doing research and advice.

    I HAVE DONE work in Turkey, it is so much better than anywhere in Europe and definitely so much better than the US. The hospitals look like 5 star hotels, the staff are amazingly professionakl, the doctors are top notch, the food is amazing, and the price is not a spit in the face.

      Why didn't you stay and live there permanently?
