Suicide? Whatever is wrong, I can fix. Contact me (wrassman@newhair.com). I have often reached out to young men who are thinking about suicide because of hair issues, often caused by a bad hair transplant on an immature male who didn’t do his research. I am aware of two suicides over my career on patients who […]

There are clear risks here, one technician moves to another patient because the team needs help, instruments are crossed between patients, there is clearly not surgeons for each of these patients. All of this can cause life threatening infections transferred from one patient to another. There is a real question of quality control, who does […]
The problem of those clinics is that they are doing like 15 patients per day. Most of those clinics are just hair mill, everything is rushed You get to see the experienced surgeon only five minutes to draw you your hairline … He doens’t even answer your questions. People who are actually doing the FUE are inexperiencied […]
I would need to know how many grafts you had done. The donor area would need to be evaluated. You might not be a candidate for another FUE if you had the usual 4,000-5,000 FUE grafts done in Turkey, but a strip surgery might make sense if your donor area is depleted. Without an evaluation […]
With swelling in the donor area after 4 weeks, I would worry about an infection. I suggest that you see a doctor who understands the FUE that you had done. If going back to Turkey is not an option, see a local hair transplant doctor.
You should certainly see a doctor and get a diagnosis in the case that these pimples reflect an infection. Of course, that is the problem when you go to Turkey, there is no follow-up of problems but you should be able to find a doctor in the UK that will see you
Your donor area was over-harvested. To make matters worse, the grafts taken were outside the permanent zone and the area of depletion goes both too high and too low. The only treatment that really works for this is Scalp MicroPigmentation. Some people suggest that areas like this get covered with body hair, but body hair […]
I have seen some good results and some terrible results from Turkey. I have been told that there are almost 500 hair transplant clinics and only a few dozen that have actual doctors involved in the surgery which means that the vast majority of these clinics are illegal clinics by Turkish law (not enforced). Mass […]
I went to Turkey so what I am going to write about here is lengthy, I wanted to have the surgery performed by Dr. ‘X’ (I don’t want to use his name for legal reasons). The doctor’s team seems very well trained but clearly they were not well organized. They failed to discuss the procedure with […]
Going out of the country for an FUE is not a great idea. The results may not be predictable, there is no accountability for the doctor and the risks of anesthesia may be significant in the wrong hands. Deaths have even happened, even in the US. We have been doing FUE longer than anyone in […]
An Email sent by patient from Turkey who stated that he had a red, hot scalp 2 months after his hair transplant. The presentation he was discussing sounds like an infection but he said he cold not go back to who ever did it. I told him that “You must go to a skilled doctor, […]
You really need to contact your surgeons back in Turkey for a follow up (even by phone). What I see is not normal. We actually wrote about hair transplant in Turkey as a medical tourism destination last week FUE in Turkey.
Doctors in Europe are feeling the pinch from competition from doctors in Istanbul Turkey and Iran who have set up hair transplant mills. This is similar to what the Russians did in the 1990s when setting up Cataract Mills for eye surgery. These are all FUE procedures and I doubt the ladies performing the FUE […]
It is important to read as much as you can about hair transplantation. Know the different types of techniques and know what the standard of care should be. Our website, www.newhair.com, has a tremendous amount of educational material for you to review. Then look up the list of doctors in Turkey on the International Society […]
I have seen a similar curve running for 10 years. It shows a similar spread between men who stay on finasteride and those who do not use it. The non-users develop a more advanced pattern of balding. I try to tell every man that is balding that this is a progressive process over the patient’s […]
