Hello everyone, I am Doron Harati international coordinator of HDC hair transplant clinic.
I want to share my 3 HTs journey, this post will focus on my first and second procedure.
I want to thank Dr. Maras and HDC team for repairing my scalp, I was in terrible condition from my first experience with Arenamed.
I am 38 years old today and had my first HT back in February 2018 at Arenamed clinic in Turkey Istanbul with additional escort service from their local representative in my country Israel that represented Arenamed, before the surgery I was promised in a contract, that I will have 5000 grafts ( mega session in one day) WITH NO SCARS and 100% garauntee of full growth and safe procedure with no medical complications, my experience at Arenamed was horrible! I had 10 hours surgery, very painful procedure that almost cost my life! They injected me too much anesthesia, which caused me to faint on a wheelchair, for 12 hours I puked, vomited all over, didn’t feel my body heat and squirm!
They called to an ambulance and the paramedics determined that my blood pressure was low due to anesthesia overdose (I am not allergic to anesthesia), after I arrived back to the hotel, I couldn’t sleep, continued to threw up in the toilet and my head was in tremendous pain so I couldn’t sleep!
After a year me and the agent agreed my HT was a FAILURE, BUT he refused to admit I had scars! I went to a specialist and he approved with a latter my donor area got scared due the HT surgery, PLUS the surgery hurt MY NATURAL HAIR, so the HT was failure, I got scars, I almost died from medical malpractice and my natural hair got damaged.
The representative only offered me repair with a lower price HT at Arenamed but I refused and asked for a full refund and the agent refused even after he didn’t provide what he promised on the contract, we had a fight without understanding and no agreement.
The agent texted and THREATENED TO SUE ME! For sharing my story but I ignored him and followed the rules by lawyer’s advice.
MOST HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD!
On March 2019 I met Dr. Maras and I was very emotional by telling him my story with tears, I explained him how I am ashamed to go out by the way I look now, that my appearance and my confidence were destroyed, he calmed me down and promised me he’ll do everything to repair me properly, Dr. Maras explained that my luck is the fact that Arenamed didn’t touch my donor area next to my ears (strong donor area) and the procedure will be totally different in much nicer way.
Before my arrival to HDC, I met 7 patients that had HTs by Dr. Maras, all looked great to me! 4 of the patients, had REPAIR HAIR TRANSPLANTS, and 2 of them were like myself customers that had a huge let letdown from the first agent that work with Arenamed, over the months before I learned a lot about hair transplants protocols, the difference between Microscope FUE, to Mini FUE to only eye using FUE, how to preserve grafts, why my first HT failed, how not to make scarring with minimum trauma, ect…
When I arrived to Cyprus on 4th of July 2019 I felt much calmer compare to Istanbul, the apartment that HDC provided me was clean and modern.
The 2 days surgey by Dr. Maras went clean and easy, with small injections without any issues.
I am now post final repair result and couldn’t be happier!
Dr. Maras and HDC team regained my confidence and youthful look, I HIGHLY recommend.
