What to expect regarding hair transplant cost in Turkey?

Well, as I mentioned earlier, affordable hair transplant cost in Turkey was the main reason why I choose to come here for treatment. I was plagued with severe hair loss for some years and over a period of time, I developed a bald patch in my crown area.

All this really freaked me out! I was just 28 years old, I tried everything to stop the hair loss, be it different shampoos or topical ointments like Rogaine which is a hair growth drug or a variety of oils and home remedies, but sadly nothing worked.

Hair transplant did cross my mind, but I could not afford the exorbitant cost of it in Britain. I was really heartbroken and depressed. Once while surfing the net in search of an economical solution for hair loss, I came across advantage of hair transplant in Turkey.

I got to know that nowadays it is no big deal in going to another country for medical treatment in order to save money. On further research, I realized that Turkey was considered a heaven for hair transplant surgery for its advanced treatment options and low hair transplant cost in Turkey.

It really intrigued me and I got in contact with a few renowned hair transplant clinics to understand the process and their pricing. While searching for the best clinics I realized there were more than 300 hair transplant clinics in Istanbul alone.

Whew! Hair transplant is a big thriving industry in Turkey.

The clinics which I got in touch with were very professional and some of them were JCI accredited. They provided me with all the details and I even shared my photos with them to get an estimate on hair transplant cost in Turkey.

I was shocked when I was told the hair transplant cost in Turkey.

I was informed that I will have to pay around $2000 for hair transplant.

Want to know the best part!

Hair transplant cost in Turkey also includes a number of services completely free. Like inclusive of the surgery you are also provided with free accommodation at a good hotel, have a pickup to and from the airport and clinic in a luxury car, service of a translator and many clinics also offer free of cost sight-seeing.

I was delighted! I zeroed down on the best hair transplant clinic after reading reviews of several centers and researching on various hair transplant surgeons.

I just could not wait any longer and after fixing my appointment for surgery at the earliest available date I flew to Turkey for my hair restoration surgery.

My surgery for hair transplant in Turkey

On reaching Turkey, I was taken for consultation with the doctor. At the clinic I saw several patients, some of whom had undergone surgery, some had come for follow-up and others had come for consultation like me.

The clinic was ultra-modern, fitted with the latest equipment and on meeting the doctor I felt reassured that I had made the right decision. He was very warm and attentive. He analyzed my scalp and briefly told me about the procedure.

They were going to perform FUE hair transplant technique which is the latest procedure and gives amazing results. With FUE, you are assured best results, quick recovery and no visible scars. For hair transplant in Turkey, FUE is the most widely used procedure.

Finally, the day of my surgery arrived

I was so nervous. Seeing my state the surgeon had a small talk with me to relax my nerves and calm me down.

I was given local anesthesia on my scalp so that I may not feel any pain. Then the surgeon started removing the hair follicles one by one with the help of the motorized punch from the donor area which is the back and sides of the head.

There was no pain and I was busy seeing a movie. After extraction, I was given a short break so that I could have lunch and move about so as to stretch my legs.

After the break, the surgeon started implanting the grafts in the slits in the recipient area which was prepared beforehand. Luckily there was no pain but I could feel the pressure they applied on my scalp while transplanting the grafts.

Eventually, after around 7 hours the hair transplant session was over and I heaved a sigh of relief. Though the procedure was not actually painful it is natural to be tense in such situation.

The doctor had prescribed antibiotics to fight off infection and painkillers. I was briefed about the potential side-effects during my initial consultation and was relieved to know that there were no permanent and major complications. Minor side-effects like swelling, bruising, itching and pain will subside within a few days.

Care post hair transplant in Turkey

The best part of hair transplant procedure is that it does not need extra care and precaution. We just have to follow the basic routine of avoiding going out in the sun and keeping our head covered with a hat so as to protect it from dust and pollution.

For a few days, the doctor advised me to sleep in an upright position so that the swelling subsides and the grafts are protected. I had to keep the scalp clean by shampooing regularly.

Am I satisfied with my hair transplant in Turkey?

You bet! I have never been this happy. I realized my dream of having hair restoration; I am a few months away from having a head full of hair. Thanks to Turkey for making my dream come true. The surgeon was great and they have done a good job. I can see my new hairline and it brings me immense joy.

My family and friends are also so excited seeing my new hairline and many of them have already planned to go for hair transplant in Turkey.

Even I am promoting Turkey for hair transplant to all my acquaintances as I feel everybody should get a chance to regrow their hair and hair transplant cost in Turkey is so affordable that most of us can opt for it.”

In addition, the questions you should ask yourself when trying to find a reliable hair transplant center should be:

• What is the power of the institution that will serve you in the media?
• Do you often see advertisements and different doctors of that institution  in visual or written media?
• Do you see that a single doctor always repeats the same issue exactly in the same way?
• In addition to giving you detailed information during your interview with the doctor, are you provided with hair and scalp analysis services and, if necessary, a blood test?
• Can they explain the reasons why you are eligible or not eligible for hair transplant?
• Can they explain the reasons for your hair loss?
• Does the person who has met you on the phone also participate in your face-to-face interview and participate in your operation?
• How can a hair transplant center in such a situation give you a good service?
• Can the institution where you will receive service provide hotel, hospital, clinic and all transportation services within Istanbul during the operation period?
• After serving you, do they call you periodically and tell you they would like to know about the condition of your hair?

As Venus Care, our difference as an institution is to offer the subjects we have mentioned above in the best way without taking into account the languages, religions, races, genders and most importantly economic differences of our customers.

For example, hair transplant centers, which say that it is only our center that uses “microtrans” or “one by one” methods, clearly and deliberately deceive those who are trying to obtain information about transplant operations. In fact, what they are talking about is the synonym of the FUE technique. Or, you may encounter with people who say “we use manual collection, which is a better method, in our center”. Whereas, in fact, in FUE method, two different types of  graft collection techniques are applied by using manual and micro-motor. Manual collection is a collection form which is done before micro-motor and can be achieved by every hair transplant center. The centers, which make such a statement to the clients, should be known that they consist of teams that cannot make collection by using micro motors.

Another known deceptive discourse is the information that more than 4000 grafts can be transplanted within a day. Because the grafts taken from the donor area cannot be left out for a long time, and then they are transplanted by means of planned method to the area on which PRP is applied, in practice which is not possible. For example; you should know that the companies that have committed the transplant of  6000 grafts  cannot fulfill what they say in such conditions.

In order to prevent your hair transplant decision from becoming a disappointment, please do not prefer insufficient centers by believing flowery and deceptive statements as mentioned above.

Turkey is very developed in hair transplant and it draws considerable interest of foreign tourists for this aesthetic operation. According to the recent data on tourism, 60.000 people visited Turkey for hair transplant last year. There are many reasons that Turkey is preferred for this procedure.

The price for hair transplant in Turkey is much more reasonable than in the other countries. The lower price is not the only secret for Turkey’s success, because Turkey also holds the first position in hair transplant in terms of level of expertise and technological facilities. One of the most important reasons why Turkey is preferred for hair transplant is that methods used in Turkey reduces the healing process. Furthermore, Turkish surgeons conduct overseas research and contribute to various studies on hair transplant with the technology and advanced solutions they use.
