Hair transplant in Turkey: Reviews

I came in for hairline restoration after reading about all the positive reviews. I was not balding very much but my hairline was somewhat asymmetrical and I did have a growing widows peak.

I got a 1700 graft FUE transplant. The anesthetic injections to the back and front of my head were like being stung by a bee and they brought a couple of tears to my eyes. That painful episode lasted around 10 minutes broken in 2 sessions (back, then front) and there was no pain after that.

I will update this review after I see what the results of the treatment are in 6 months or so. That is the most important thing afterall. Until then, all I can vouch for is the way I was treated and the way I was treated was most excellent! Assuming the grafts take and the result is good, I would recommend this clinic in a heartbeat.

I was picked up at the airport and the clinic customer service was first class throughout. I was treated very well and I was even accommodated when I missed my early morning appointment I arrived at my hotel at 3 AM. 6 stars out of 5.

The hotel I picked (cheapest option. (naz city) is nice and very close to the clinic. The clinic is pretty and shiny and modern and in the middle of a shiny and modern hospital center. Nothing shady here. These are very nice facilities.

full disclosure. they gave me a laptop to write this review after my 2nd appointment when I got my hair washed so that explains the number of reviews. Its clever. I would have done the same if this were my clinic. However since everything I just said is true I don’t mind.

I chose Clinicana based on positive online reviews, and also being able to speak on the phone to a couple of guys from the UK who had already visited.
I had FUE treatment for a receding hairline, a thinning crown. and a thin patch just in front of my left ear.
I’m now a year on since the treatment, and would happily recommend it to others.
It’s definitely good value for money – you pay an agreed price for your treatment, regardless of the actual number of grafts that end up being required, whereas in the UK you have to pay per graft. The price for the hair transplant, hotels and flights came to about a fifth of what it would have cost me in the UK 🙂

I’m happy to concur with others that I was well looked after and treated professionally.
You’ve really got to be patient in waiting for your results, I’m afraid!
After the initial elation of seeing my new hairline just after the operation, there was quite a barren period between weeks 3-10, when the transplanted hair temporarily shed, and I was longing like crazy to see some new growth!
It did eventually start growing back at around week 10, but I had to wait till about 6-7 months down to line to feel like I was getting some kind of a result.

I definitely recommend taking a week off work after the operation – I wasn’t really in pain, but my face was quite swollen and I ended up with a full on black eye, because of the anaesthetic. Plus, it takes about 10 days for the grafts to become fully secure, so if you get some kind of scrape during that time, you could potentially lose some.

Anyway, 1 year on I feel that it was definitely worth doing, and overall things have improved. In all honesty, there’s some room for improvement – my trasnplanted hair is a little lacking in density and perhaps not fully up to speed yet, but there are many online comments about it taking anything up to 18 months to see a full result. Hopefully I’ll return then to give a definitive review. I’m particularly pleased that Clinicana were willing to address the thin patch in front of my left ear – it had been that way for years, even before my main hairline started receding. As you can hopefully see from the photos, that has been a definite improvement.

I’d like to say a big thank you to Mulham and his team. The communication was first class and the everything went smoothly. I stayed in a great 5 star hotel which is 5 min walk from the clinic. The clinic is private and very high class. The operation it’s self is quite draining and was a little sore. The injections for the pain are probably the worst but the day after the operation is fine with no pain. The work looks good and I’m happy with the number of grafts done. 3000. There was also a little problem with the Scottish notes not being as valuable as the English so please be aware. Mulham was excellent in this situation and kindly stuck to the agreement as a good will gesture. Would defiantly recommend anyone looking for an all inclusive transplant to come to Clinicana.

The clinic was spotless and very professional. I had about 3 people working on me in total. The didn’t speak much English but wasn’t a problem. The main Dr would come in and speak good English keeping me up to date with things.

After looking at various places here on WhatClinic, my choice fell on Istanbul Florence Nightingale Hospital, for the simple reason that in a hospital the result and conditions must be the best.

It is simply a very professional team that is experienced in this area, and I would recommend them to anyone anytime.

It’s been a week since the operation now, and I write again later

I underwent hair transplant surgery. I have been losing hair for years and the anterior portion of my scalp was nearly bald. I suppose anybody wanting to look a few years younger can try this form of treatment. Its a pain free day-care procedure by an experienced team. I think the pricing of Clinicana was very reasonable.

From the day i sent my inquiry online the team has been following up with me promptly. All my queries were answered satisfactorily and i was given a detailed description of what is going to happen and the preparation required. I received a very warm welcome at the hospital and was treated with utmost care and respect. The procedure it self was well planned and everything went smooth. The hospital appears world class and i suppose its one of the best in Istanbul.

Excellent staff and clinic, I had hair transplant before in other clinic but was not successful. I feel really happy and totally satisfied. I make beard transplant now and everything was well arranged. I checked several clinics online but finally I chose this clinic based on he quick professional realistic response I got from them when I send them online questions. I also received several call from clinics but I found them more professional.

The whole experience really did go as advertised from start to finish. the hotel is very near and the transfers good arranged. The clinic is very clean and professional . Some of my friends are also going after I explained my excellent experience. And they have seen my change. I recommend every one who needs hair transplant to do it in Clinicana.

I had a hair implant. to build more confidential on myself .
