Correct, I was botched and almost died at Arenamed clinic in Turkey.
I want to thank Dr. Maras and HDC team for repairing my hair, I was in terrible condition from my first horrific experience with Arenamed clinic.
I am 38 years today and had my first HT back in February 2018 at Arenamed clinic in Turkey Istanbul with an escort service with a local agent in my country that represent Arenamed (which I sued later with 4 more paitens) , before the surgery I was promised in a contract, that I will have 5000 grafts ( mega session in a day) WITH NO SCARS, my experience at Arenamed was horrible! I had 10 hours surgery, very painful procedure that almost cost my life! They injected me too much anesthetic, which caused me to faint on a wheelchair, puke and vomit for 12 hours, body temperature was cold and squirm! They called to an ambulance and the doctor determined that my blood pressure was low due to anesthesia overdose (I am not allergic to anesthesia), after I recovered in my hotel, I couldn't sleep, I continued to threw up in the toilet and the head was too painful so I couldn't sleep!
After a year me and the agent agreed my HT was a FAILURE, BUT he refused to take responsibility as promised on our contract, I went to a doctor they approved my donor area got scared due the HT surgery, PLUS the surgery regressed MY NATURAL HAIR.
The agecny only offered me repair at Arenamed with a discount (without mentioning the price) but I refused and asked for a full refund and the agency refused even after they didn't provide what he promised on paper, 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.
MOST HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD!
Now for the good part with the lovely experience at HDC in Cyprus
At first I met Dr. Maras, his team and the representors in my country, I was very emotional and told them with tears my story, I explained them I am ashamed to go out by the way I look now, I feel my appearance and my confidence was destroyed, they calmed me down, and promised that everything will be fixed, Dr. Maras explained that my luck is the fact that Arenamed didn't touch my donor area next to my ears (strong donor area), they were very empathetic, they explained me the whole 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, also I months over months learned a lot about hair transplants, 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 scars, hair punch mm, ect...
When I arrived to Cyprus 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, no pain, no issues
I am now post 7 months since the REPAIR HT and I couldn't be happier with the results! Full hair with no scars as promised!
Dr. Maras and HDC team regained my confidence and youthful look, I HIGHLY recommend

I encourage paitents to share their stories if they're botched, the public must be alert from black market cheap technicians clinics and unethical doctors, unfortunately I meet paitents that were botched and afraid to share due to bully activities from those clinics, there's no need to be afraid if you speak the truth!
The pics will show you comparsion between 3000 Euros HT by Arenamed vs 6500 Euros HT by HDC.
