About his Medical Approach:
Dr. Doganay is one of the rare doctors who have obtained outstanding results in DHI with the help of the Choi Implanter Pen technique, with which he gives proper angles to hair follicles, especially in the front hairline area. His approach is thorough, which is why Dr. Doganay is very selective in choosing patients; he believes that every case is very individual and not everyone is suitable for Hair Transplantation.

He is very systematic and thorough in his surgical methodology; he operates personally on only one patient a day, he is always in contact with them during operations and is ready to give personal recommendations.

Doctor’s Technique. FUE and DHI
First part of the operation is extraction (FUE). The next step implantation – DHI, the follicular units are carefully loaded into the implanter pen, ranging from 0.6–0.8–1 mm. The doctor carefully places all the grafts one by one into the recipient area. He performs all the implanting parts by himself. Dr. Doganay designs and creates natural-looking hair lines that mimic mature hair by using only single hair follicular units.
