Thanks sis, I felt really comfortable in Heva clinic. I got back to the Uk on Saturday. FUE hair transplant 5 days today and trusting the process. 🎉

Thank you for the video, great details. I’ll be going with Heva. How long did they take to confirm your appointment after paying your deposit?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

You're welcome! It was immediate 🙂

[@stephaniehalser4710]

I had my hair transplant at Longevita a week ago. I am female and had a non shaved procedure in the transplant area,

Hope yours went well!!!

Glad to hear! You're so welcome!xx

[@akirafudosceiling]

this is super informative, I’m gonna consider heva just because of the prp treatments 😭 I really want during my stay to stay at a hotel that cooks good steak and Alfredo

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

Yes, whatever clinic you go with make sure PRP I'd included in the service. Lol- I LOVED the hotel they put me in- the food was soo good- the hotel really impacts your trip experience- you want to feel as comfortable as possible since you're travelling for surgery.

[@ItsEmmaAkuffo]

Thanks for sharing! I’ve never heard of this Heva.

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

You're welcome. I found them on instagram.

[@asensomensah8833]

I can see you are a Ghanaian. Do you plan on getting a hair transplant? Or have you got one in turkey already ? Do you live in Ghana? … I’m also planning to get one in turkey , but I think I need help with the visa processing

[@belindaj4732]

I just heard about it after I booked with Turkeyana. Going on May

[@belindaj4732]

I am going to Heva thanks to you I. Cancelled with Turkeyanna. May 12 yay very excited after I saw many hairs that Heva have done. ✅

[@asensomensah8833]

[@UrielBenIsrael]

You should go the Artistic Hair Transplant Center Nairobi, Kenya. They specialize in afro hair. The 2 doctors there are amazing.

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

👍🏽

[@syn698]

I tried searching them on insta and couldn't find anything

[@raslynroyal]

Nah really bad reviews

[@Thisfinelaidie]

Yeah I heard about that too. I guess by the time I had mine done at Longevita a few months later, no fox test was required or done. Maybe an omission on their part. The package at Heva sounds good.

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

Oh really??? That's super interesting!!!!! The fox test was a big turn off for me.

[@Thisfinelaidie]

@@TheWellnessAbbey No fox test over here. When I sent my pics during the initial consultation, that’s when they determined I was a suitable candidate.

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

Oh wow- lucky you!!! Happy for you though! 🙂

[@BrothaMoe]

Do you know if you can get the Fox Test before flying out to Istanbul for the hair transplant restoration? Ty sista

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

I'm not sure too be honest- it's definitely something you'll have to ask your clinic if the clinic you choose requires it. It would require two flights/trips to Turkey though if you can get it done on a day before the transplant itself. which is very inconvenient. They may do it right before the transplant procedure itself (on the same day), but I'd hate to go through all that pain of numbing my head (and shaving the relevant areas) only to be told the test has failed, and that they can't proceed with the actual transplant.

[@BrothaMoe]

@@TheWellnessAbbey that was helpful and thanks for replying sista.

[@domj1804]

I have been looking for someone to tell me how the flight back home was? Did you cover your hair? With what? Did the airport ask to remove anything from your hair?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

Hey, I covered what I did on the flight back home in this video- kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYCygJWVor19ia8si=dizMVaOuybgHVpvr 👍🏽 I wasn't risking covering destroying my grafts!

[@stephaniehalser4710]

I just flew back with my transplant uncovered and bandages removed the day before by the clinic (I went with Longevita)

[@stephaniehalser4710]

I made my transplant into a weeks holiday with my family! They stayed in an Airbnb and I had 2 nights in the hotel whilst they were there!

[@stephaniehalser4710]

We stayed a week!

[@stephaniehalser4710]

I had PRP included in my hair transplant as well at Longevita!

[@maxinelynch4831]

Is your donor area the same after the op?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

The hair there is more sparse- that's inevitable, and I feel I have to be more gentle when scratching my scalp as I've noticed small bumps when I scratch hard. Other than that it's the same.

[@bbnkechi]

This is why I went to Jasmine Turgut directly. She was the head of the ethnic transplants for longevita but left to start her own business. Looks like she made the right choice

[@ceke2792]

Me too…. I went directly to her. I had mine 2 days ago. How did urs go?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

Oh really? That's interesting to know- I didn't know she opened her own clinic- sounds like a very clever choice!!!

[@Shelly_Dee]

Where is Janine new clinic

[@jordank9890]

Tbh she was the one who “did” my transplant when I was at Longevita a few years back And I said “did” because she didnt actually do the surgery. It felt like she was the only one who could approve it and a bunch of technician who weren't as skilled performed my surgery. My results weren't amazing either and I'm now looking to get a second procedure due to patches that didn't grow and low density.

[@jordank9890]

Also while I'm not an advocate for Longevita and won't be going back for my second procedure I do believe the fox method is a more honest method. I personally would want to be told that you hair doesn't qualify for hair transplant then someone who' would make the same claim still perform the procedure and all or most of my hair fall out. That would be more devastating and a waste of money. To go through all of that wait 12months only for your hair to not grow.

[@DaBabyDoll1]

How many grafts did you get?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

4000

[@faithfulbee]

How much did Heva quote you sis? I have received a quote but it was only for 2 nights stay and I’d have to pay extra to stay a 3rd night. Also no PRP in my quote 😢 They quoted me 2k USD x

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

They quoted me $2600 for 3 nights stay with PRP in the quote. Ask them if you can get the same quote they gave me (I'll DM you on insta). x

[@nisaj9304]

@@TheWellnessAbbey When did you get PRP? Did you have to travel back?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

@@nisaj9304 I got the PRP immediately after the hair transplant- a few minutes after they finished the hair transplant procedure.

[@kiralypayne3106]

I just had my procedure with heva it went smooth. They charged me $2,000 and I had 4 nights stay. They’ll work with you ask them if they can bring your price down. They charged a couple guys I met here 1700 because they asked to bring it down

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

Happy for you, Kiraly!! I hope you have a smooth recovery! Oh wow, that's amazing. Thanks for sharing that! I wish I knew that when they gave me my quote! 😁

@@TheWellnessAbbey thanks a lot i'm a black man and I hesitate between Heva and Hair of Istanbul, si these videos are really helpful !

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

They both have great Google reviews, great instagram pages, and great trustpilot reviews overall. I personally would go with whichever one gave me the most professional feel and service when I reach out to them online / via WhatsApp for the initial consultation- for me, peace of mind was a huge thing. I was willing to pay more for that.

​@@CharleyJamesDHeva clinic have many afro hair patients, that's why I'll choose them

[@ED-gk8vg]

[@belindaj4732]

What’s a fox test?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

They take a few grafts from the donor area to assess how easy implanting them will be / if the grafts will survive after transplanted 👍🏽

[@Jamie-wo5pi]

Did they require you to shave your head bald? Or are you given a choice in the matter?

[@TheWellnessAbbey]

I was given a choice in the matter 😊 there were other females on the day that didn't shave their heads 👍🏽

[@ygbodybuilder3023]

Why not choose hair of itsabul or tarcan

[@yb8904]

Did you get DHI or FUE
