Dr. Keser Staged Transplant: 1,000 Grafts, 2,500 Planned

Dr. Muttalip Keser: Staged Hair Transplant Case
Historical staged case: The account describes a 37-year-old patient who received 1,000 grafts in 2007 after about 2,500 had been discussed. The patient wanted to assess regrowth before deciding on further frontal and crown work; the additional 2,500 grafts are a plan in the source, not a confirmed completed procedure.
This is useful as an example of staged planning: some patients choose a smaller first procedure and preserve donor supply for later sessions. The original account also states that the patient was not using minoxidil or finasteride; that detail is historical and is not a treatment recommendation.
When reviewing the photos, compare frontal coverage, crown planning and donor appearance over time. This case is especially useful for understanding staged hair transplant planning: instead of using the entire anticipated graft requirement in one session, the patient reportedly began with a smaller procedure and planned to reassess growth before further work.
2,500 Planned Versus 1,000 Reported: An Important Distinction
The original account describes a plan of approximately 2,500 grafts, but records only the first procedure of about 1,000 grafts in 2007. It does not establish that the full proposed total was ever transplanted. This page should therefore be read as a staged-planning patient archive, not as proof of a completed 2,500-graft result.
- Proposed overall plan: approximately 2,500 grafts, according to the archived account
- Documented first session: approximately 1,000 grafts in 2007
- Additional sessions: not confirmed in the available account
- Medication note: the patient stated that they were not taking minoxidil or finasteride; this is not treatment advice
For a separate reported procedure involving a different patient, see our Dr. Keser 2,000-graft FUE case. It should not be confused with this staged account.
What to Compare in a Staged Dr. Keser Case
- How much visible change came from the first reported 1,000-graft session
- Whether the donor area appears preserved for later procedures
- How the frontal zone was prioritised relative to the crown
- Whether later hair loss could change the balance of the original plan
For current clinic information, see the Dr. Muttalip Keser profile. For present-day planning and price context, see our hair transplant cost in Turkey guide and Turkey patient reviews guide.
Useful Points to Compare
- Starting hair-loss pattern and donor characteristics
- Reported graft count and the size of the recipient area
- Donor extraction pattern and visible thinning
- Hairline design and density distribution
- Time elapsed between surgery and each photograph
This page is a historical patient-case archive rather than a controlled clinical study. Individual outcomes vary, so the photographs should be read in the context of the patient’s starting point, donor supply, procedure plan and follow-up interval.
