Before the Hair Transplant
Blake came to the clinic with an established Norwood 5 pattern: a receding frontal hairline with temple loss and a thinning crown, leaving the bridge of native hair between the front and vertex weakened. His main concern was rebuilding a natural, age-appropriate hairline without an overly low or aggressive design. Critically, his loss had already stabilised, and his donor area at the back and sides held enough good-quality, DHT-resistant hair to cover the front, mid-scalp and crown in a single planned session while protecting his lifetime reserve.
Treatment Plan
After trichoscopic analysis and a donor-capacity assessment, the team designed a conservative, future-proof hairline and mapped graft distribution across three zones: the frontal hairline and temples, the mid-scalp bridge, and the crown. The plan called for 5,324 grafts placed with Picasso Robotic DHI, the clinic’s most artistic implantation method, chosen for the precise control of angle, depth and direction needed to make a large frontal-to-crown rebuild look completely natural. About Blake’s procedure: learn how Picasso Robotic DHI hair transplantation works, and why physician-led planning, not a graft number alone, drives a lasting result.
The Procedure
Blake’s surgery was performed and supervised directly by Д-р Сервет Терзилер, the clinic’s founder and the inventor of the Robotic DHI machine. A recorded, real-time graft count confirmed 5,324 grafts were harvested and implanted, a level of documentation that lets a patient verify exactly what was done rather than take a marketing number on trust. Grafts were placed at a density and angle matched to each zone using the clinic’s Роботизирана DHI platform, prioritising graft survival over raw speed. This is what a doctor-led hair transplant in Turkey looks like in practice: the surgeon designs the hairline, controls the implantation, and stands behind the number.
Recovery Timeline
Growth after a hair transplant is gradual and follows a predictable curve. Blake’s recovery was documented at five checkpoints over the first year.
12-Month Result
At twelve months, Blake’s frontal hairline, mid-scalp and crown show full, natural coverage with an age-appropriate design that suits his face. The transplanted hair grows at a natural angle and blends with his native hair, and the donor area remains dense and undetectable. This is the durable, doctor-led outcome that makes his one of the standout real hair transplant Turkey results in this series.

Blake’s 12-Month Patient Story in the Los Angeles Times
Blake’s experience was also documented in a Los Angeles Times Business Partnerships feature published on September 21, 2026. The article follows his decision to travel from the United States to Istanbul, the questions he asked while comparing hair transplant clinics in Turkey, his experience with physician involvement and graft-count documentation, and his assessment of the result at 12 months.
The Los Angeles Times page is labelled “Paid Program.” This refers to the sponsored publication arrangement and means the feature should not be interpreted as an independent Los Angeles Times editorial endorsement. Blake, however, is a real Dr. Terziler patient, and the procedure, interview, treatment timeline, before-and-after material and 12-month outcome documented in the feature relate to his actual case.
In other words, the article is best understood as a sponsored media feature documenting a genuine longitudinal patient experience, rather than an independent clinic review.
