I had three done in the states and I'm happy with them, but it's tough to argue it was necessarily worth the increased price.

What was the cost? I've heard it's cheaper to fly to Turkey.

It's a lot cheaper in Turkey. I don't remember the exact numbers but each of mine (in the US) was in the high four figure range.

I originally felt more confident going to a plastic surgeon, though even though the doctor oversaw the process, it was being done by highly trained technicians. That's probably more ideal anyway because it's very manual and meticulous work, so (IMO) you want someone who's done it a thousand times--not someone who did a nose job yesterday, a boob job the day before, and only does a hair transplant every couple of weeks.

I'd assume the techs in Turkey are about as experienced as you can get.

if i recall, it was costing $8-$11 in US compared to 3-5eur per graft in turkey 2-3 years back.
