Why Is The Cost Of Hair transplant In Turkey Low?

Turkey is now officially the #1 destination for hair transplants. Over 5,000 patients per month travel to Turkey for their hair transplant procedure.

Since the introduction of FUE hair transplant in 2007, the popularity of hair transplantation in Turkey showed a steep increase as the cost of a hair transplant surgery significantly decreased.

We have outlined the top reasons of why travelling to Turkey for a hair transplant operation makes perfect sense and have prepared a detailed Pros and Cons comparison to help your research.

Here Are Some Facts About The Turkish Hair Transplant Industry

Some of the world’s top hair transplant surgeons like Dr. Tayfun Oguzoglu, Dr. Ilker Apaydin, Dr. Ekrem Civas and Dr. Koray Erdogan, who are the members of most respected international organisations such as ISHRS and ABHRS, are based here.

Internationally Qualified Hair Surgeons

Don't let the affordable cost fool you. Turkey is the home for some of the most skilled and highly qualified hair surgeons in the entire world. Especially a hair transplant in Istanbul can give you access to some of the most wanted hair surgeons in Europe.

Strong Competition

The increased number of hair clinics opened in Turkey during the past 5 years created competition between them and thanks to this sweet competition, clinics strive for excellence and are always looking for ways to improve their techniques in order to lead better results. And the ultimate beneficiary of this competition are the patients.

43 JCI Accredited Hospitals

Turkey holds the title for the highest number of JCI accredited hospitals in the region. Their highly strict regulations, along with the latest technologies and advanced skills help rest patients assured that they will receive a top quality medical attention.

Medical Packages Are Tailored For Your Needs

After all, we all have different needs and preferences. In Turkey, the hospitality is at its highest and this also applies to the hair transplant industry. The personalised medical tourism packages offer patients tailor-made solutions to ensure their comfort and safety. Your very own dedicated patient coordinator, private hotel room and chauffeur are ready at your disposal.

Every Medical Team Member Is Licenced

Thanks to the thoroughly regulated medical system by the government, top hair clinics in Turkey ensure that all their team members have relevant experience on quality of care, hygiene and ethics. The teams have comparable experience with hair surgeons gained by the high number of patients they deal with every year.

Clinic Staff Speaks Your Native Language

Highly trained patient coordinators eliminate any language barrier uncertainty. Top clinics only employ multi-lingual staff who also speak English fluently to provide a peace of mind throughout your stay.

The Comparison Of Pros & Cons Transplant In Turkey

“Over 200,000 planes depart every day in the world. Booking a flight ticket is now at our fingertips and much cheaper compared to 10 years ago.

Understandably, medical tourism also benefits from the recent changes in the last decade, and patients now save significant amounts of money by simply traveling abroad for a medical treatment.

Below, we transparently listed the advantages and disadvantages of travelling to Turkey for a hair transplant procedure.”

Our dear patient Callum B. explains his journey and discusses his hair transplant result with this self-made video.

PROS of Having A Hair Transplant In Turkey

Hair Transplants At a Very Affordable Price

YOU DEFINITELY GET YOUR MONEY’S WORTH

You don’t have to be Wayne Rooney or Mel Gibson to afford.

In Turkey, a hair transplant costs between £1,500 and £3,500 mostly. This is just a fraction of the cost you would pay for the exact same hair transplant in UK or USA.

WHAT’S THE CATCH?

Well, there isn’t a real catch. Turkish Lira is weak against most of the strong currencies in circulation, such as US Dollars, Euro, Pound Sterling. Therefore clinics spend less on labor cost and lease. A cheap hair transplant is absolutely possible in Turkey with no compromise on quality.

And the good news is; Turkey has some of the most well-known and experienced hair surgeons around the world.

Here is a list of hair transplant doctors in Turkey with 15-20 years of experience: Best hair surgeons of Turkey list

You Will Recieve a Top Notch Treatment

INDEPENDENT REVIEWS REVEAL THE SECRET RECIPE

At Reviews.co.uk, GetHair has almost 400 independent reviews, each of them written in detail by real patients, disclosing their personal experience of a pain-free hair transplant in Istanbul.

THE SECRET?

Highly standardised procedures at JCI accredited hospitals with professionals who know what they are doing. 3 x ISHRS member hair surgeons, licensed clinical nurses and multilingual staff members. An assured roadmap to success.

After You Return Follow Ups Continue

OFFICES ABROAD KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOU

Many times we hear that patients are reluctant to travel abroad, simply because of being unsure about who to contact if something goes wrong or need assistance with the aftercare.

Not anymore. With periodic controls at 14th day, 3rd, 6th and 12th month, GetHair rests patients assured that their patient consultant will stay in touch.

How about a physical meeting in person? With 3 offices worldwide, you are also covered. And on top, all appointments are 100% free, forever.

A hair transplant experience in Turkey does not finish once you are back.

More Patients Travel To Turkey Since 2000

GREAT BEACHES. AFFORDABLE PRICES. NICE WEATHER. AND NOW THE MEDICAL TOURISM

Patients show great interest in going to Turkey for medical procedures and benefit from the well-known hospitality of the Turkish culture, whilst receiving a top notch treatment. And Istanbul, being in the centre of this.

Records indicate that many people started traveling to Turkey as early as the 6th century BC, for Asclepion, an ancient Greek healing centre.

The Turkish Ministry of Tourism is also well aware of the interest shown to hair clinics and therefore the government keeps the audits very tight and frequent to ensure whoever undergoes a hair transplantation in Turkey, is definitely in safe hands.

Especially the British men, who cannot afford a UK hair transplant procedure, travel to Turkey for cheap but reliable hair transplants.

Getting a Visa Is a Pice Of Cake

TURKEY, A CANDIDATE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION

According to Wikipedia, a total of 78 countries are visa exempt and another 42 countries’ citizens can directly apply for a visa online and receive their visa to travel immediately. Even if you are not a national of those countries, a valid Schengen visa or permanent residency in one of those countries listed gives you the right to apply for a visa online without the need of travelling to a local consulate.

Safety Is Not a Concern Anymore

NO TRAVEL RISK TO ANY NATIONAL

As written at Escape.com.au blog, Istanbul has actually had fewer incidents of threats than London or Paris, and security is tight in all good hotels and tourist attractions. The map on the right is taken from the Washington Post article, and red dots present the incidents that took place in recent years. The map tells everything.

CONS of Having a Hair Transplant In Turkey

Not Every Clinic Has a Doctor In Operation

300 CLINICS, ONLY 13 ISHRS MEMBER HAIR SURGEONS

Always ask the clinic who is behind the surgery. Turkey has many technician only clinics, which don’t have any qualified personnel employed. The cheap FUE hair transplant cost is one thing, but finding the correct hair transplant centre is another.

– Is there a doctor? If Yes,

– Will that doctor participate in your procedure actively? If Yes,

– Does the doctor have relevant memberships as proof of experience?

Having a hair surgeon present at your procedure is essential for a good hair growth. At the end of the day, they spend their years in this field to sharpen their skills. It doesn’t happen over a night. Don’t let absurdly cheap quotes delude you. This is your hair, your self-confidence, your only makeup.

We have made a guide to spot Black market hair clinics and how to avoid them: How to choose the cheap, but the right clinic?

Your Doctor Will Be Based In Turkey

THANKS TO THE TECHNOLOGY, IT ISN’T AN ISSUE ANYMORE

Some doctors you meet locally in your home country may warn you against this. It is true that you won’t be able to see your surgeon physically once you traveled back. The good news is, you don’t have to.

Although a hair transplant operation is a medical procedure, it is much less invasive than others and considered as a walk-in outpatient procedure. This is mainly due to the very small risk of complications.

As long as you choose an experienced surgeon with relevant credentials in place, you can always contact his/her team members and request a phone call or even a Skype conversation to put a face on the voice.

You Need To Hop On a Plane

TRAVELLING ABROAD IS NOT FOR EVERYONE

Although Istanbul is not very far from many major cities in Europe, you still need to book a flight and prepare a luggage.

For some of us, this is inconvenient as it needs more planing. And of course you may not bring every family member with you, as it will be an additional cost on top.

But as the chart we shared above reveals, an increasing number of people travel to Turkey every year. This basically means saving thousands still weighs more than a quick travel.

Even when the airfare cost is included, your hair transplant cost will be still cheaper and save you at least 50% over a local clinic charge.

Who Is Behind Your Surgery

As you know there are many hair transplant clinics in Turkey but there are only a handful who take huge pride in their work and are determined to provide medical services of the utmost quality to their patients. Many clinics will may suggest their surgeon is one of the finest in the land but only very few can claim to be a member of both the ISHRS and the ABHRS.

Dr. Tayfun Oguzoglu

Dr. Tayfun is a research committee and Fellow level member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) and a member of both American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery (ABHRS) and International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons (IAHRS) Dr. Tayfun has now been accepted onto the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery which makes him one of the only 4 doctors in the whole of Turkey to do so. Dr. Tayfun also regularly participates in international conferences both as a speaker and as a guest, in addition to providing advanced training sessions in hair restoration to doctors the world over.

Dr. Ilker Apaydın

Born in 1967, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon Dr. Ilker Apaydin is performing both FUT and FUE methods since 1998. Dr. Ilker has helped over 6,000 patients with hair loss and Alopecia all around the world and completed the operations of many celebrities in Turkey. He is an active member of ISHRS since early 2000s and attended several meetings as a member and speaker as well.

Dr. Ilker does mega sessions with up to 4000 Grafts per sitting and uses micro motor ends of 0.6 to 1mm in diameter. He also has vast experience in manual extraction FUE.

Dr. Ekrem Civas

Born in 1971, the Dermatologist and Specialist Hair Surgeon Dr. Ekrem Civas is performing advanced hair transplant operations in Ankara and Istanbul since 1999.

Dr. Ekrem Civas is the first Fellow member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery in Turkey and an ambassador of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery. Dr. Ekrem has also been accepted onto the International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons (IAHRS), which makes him one of the only 6 doctors in the whole of Turkey to do so.

As a Prospect Patient, You Need To Know The Following
Before Getting a Hair transplant In Turkey

The idea of having a hair implantation shouldn’t be to look 18 again. A new frontal hairline should suit your age, and reflect the true nature of your visage. Although many of our patients speak highly of a hair transplant in Istanbul, you shouldn’t expect miracles from a FUE hair transplant.

SET REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS

The top hair surgeons in the world do not accept patients who are under the age of 25 – 27. The hair loss usually progresses at a fast pace during the early years of it and does not get stable until late-20s. Bearing in mind that the donor region is a limited source, it makes sense to wait until your hair loss gets stable so that your valuable hair follicles are used wisely.

YOUR AGE PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE

Unfortunately, not every man is suitable for a hair transplant procedure, and one big reason is that they don’t have enough donor region area or density to support extracting of grafts. If you have a large bald area, then you may opt in for a half coverage rather than full, so that you still receive a good density that would provide a satisfactory outcome.

A GOOD DONOR REGION IS ESSENTIAL

You may need to check your suitability for a successful hair transplant procedure if you have any of the conditions listed above.

Hypertension
Heart disease
Hepatitis B
HIV/AIDS
Underlying skin conditions

SOME MEDICAL CONDITIONS MAY AFFECT SUITABILITY

When I started doing my research on hair transplants I got in touch with about 4-5 different companies to see the differences and what they offered. My friend had previously been to turkey to have a hair transplant so I was referred to by him ( not gethair) other companies responded straight away having sent them my photos, they all sent an estimate and how many grafts I needed, here’s the packages yes or no type response. But when I contacted gethair they were so polite, patient and easy to deal with. I waited a couple of days for a full report from dr tayfun that was in depth unlike other companies. I then visited them at there branch in London which was another huge selling point for me. Zak and Stuart were 1st class not pushy in the slightest and I immediately new I wanted to go with these guys after there advice and professionalism. Having arrived in Turkey I was unsure what to expect or even if anyone would be there as planned. As I got off the plane and walked to the area meet point the driver was already there waiting for me and took me straight to our hotel, which I must say was very nice and comfortable. The driver then picked me up on time in the morning and took me 5 minutes down the road to the hospital (again the hospital was immaculately clean). I was very nervous on the day but I had been given clear instructions of dos and donts by Zak and Stuart so was confident for the procedure. Masimo met me at the hospital again a very nice chap and spoke me through everything throughout the procedure. The operation itself took around 4-5 hours. The nurses were incredibly professional and any troubles they spoke me through. After the operation the taxi driver was waiting for me and took me straight back to my lovely hotel. 1st night was quite uncomfortable to sleep up right. The following day we went back to the hospital for my 1st wash, and dos and donuts for the next couple of weeks. I have to say I was nervous and sceptical about the whole thing but I have never dealt with a company so thorough and professional. I no there must be other good companies out there but I would recommend gethair to anyone looking to have a hair transplant (I have already passed gethair to 3 of my friends) it’s been nearly 2 weeks since my ht, and things seem to be healing really well. All I would say to anyone looking to get a hair transplant done is do your research, take your time and I promise you if you enquire into gethair you will be so satisfied with what you get from these guys!! Great from start to Finnish now hoping for great results. Thanks to all the gethair team/dr tayfun

I had my transplant with Dr Tayfun on 17/12/19. Before I go into any more detail I’ve uploaded four different videos on my YouTube channel TrainLikeZac so feel free to check them out; there’s one on my thoughts of the whole experience and also I got my partner to video the pre-op consultation and first hair wash the day after-hopefully this will help anyone that’s considering getting their transplant through GetHair. So far all seems good, I’m currently 5 weeks post op and the recipient areas have begun to shed a little which is normal. I contacted Zak initially about a year ago just to get some info and he was very helpful, answering any questions I had even if they were in hindsight a little silly etc, he was always very professional and no detail was too small to go over. I didn’t book initially however as a birthday present to myself six months later I committed and paid the deposit. (The remaining balance was paid at the hospital before the procedure). I contacted a few different companies to get quotes as many people do and GetHair was in the mid-range price wise. (Ranging from £1000-£7000). The transfers were all very straight forward when being picked up from the airport and going to and from the hospital, the hotel was the Park Inn by Radisson which was really good, breakfast and room service was lovely and very reasonably priced too. Also if you train there’s a really good gym literally around the corner called Legend Gym which has great kit and you can pay £5 to use it per day. On the day of the procedure I was picked up at 1.10pm and once I’d had the pre-op consultation and my head shaved the procedure started at 2pm. Just as I was about to go in the patient that had been seen in the morning was coming out and it was clear the only two patients were seen on any given day-when speaking to people who had gone to other clinics this was definitely not the case. It took four hours from start to finish and I had the doctor and three technicians working just on myself. The hospital it’s in is really nice btw. For anyone a bit apprehensive about pain etc, I’m usually terrible with needles and anything like that however I had no issues whatsoever (the Valium helped too!) Dr Tayfun started by administering the local anaesthetic to the front of the head and then made all the incisions himself. Once he’d done that the technicians got to work; the only unpleasant thing about the whole procedure is the sounds you hear. It’s hard to describe but the incisions sound like small cracks and the extraction does basically sound like a mini drill; aside from that it’s a fairly relaxing process. At the end of the procedure I was given something small to eat and I was carefully driven back to the hotel to relax for the evening with all the necessary medication etc too. On a side note we arrived a few days early and did some sightseeing around Istanbul, tbh you may as well if you’re going anyway, travel-wise there’s a bus at the end of the road which takes you to Levent station where you can get anywhere you need to go, it takes maybe 30minutes and is quite nice as you get some amazing views when driving across the bridge; my partner and I were a bit worried we were really far away from the centre of the city however it’s not very far at all.

Zac

The experience I received with Get Hair & Dr T was fantastic. I hesitated for quite a few years about getting a procedure in Turkey, but I’m thankful I did and that I chose Get Hair. The service was excellent and the procedure painless & efficient. The aftercare was also first class, with an attentive team on hand post op. Although early days, I’m excited about seeing the final result
