Hair transplant in Istanbul from the United States
What should you ask about recovery before a long flight back? We’ve pulled those questions together.
Ask what the method names describe
FUE and FUT are labels you may see for ways of collecting donor hair. If you come across DHI too, we’d ask what it refers to in that specific plan. Have the team explain collection and placement separately.
Find out who does what
Our next question would be about names and roles. Who assesses you, who carries out each stage, and who is responsible for follow-up? We’d keep those answers with the written plan so they’re easy to find later.
Keep the follow-up details and photos private
We’d ask for a written summary, follow-up instructions and a contact for questions after the trip. If photos are part of care, ask who can see them and how they’ll be used. Keep them out of the club’s messages.
