Hair transplant in Turkey: Reviews

I had been gradually going bald for several years and had been using Toppik to conceal the bald areas especially around the hairline for most of that time. I decided that I was receeding too far back now to continue to use Toppik effectively – so took the plunge and decided to get a hair transplant. I live in Scotland and it was not realistic to get one at home as most clinics in Glasgow quoted me 9000 GBP. I therefore decided to research a number of clinics abroad and spent many months doing so. Going abroad can carry a lot of risks so its always pertinent to choose wisely. In the end Clinicana seemed the perfect choice based on the reviews pictures and cost.

I made most of my contact with the clinic via Whatsapp which suits me as there is no language or accent barrier! The gave me instructions on what to do prior to the operation – things to avoid and things to make sure I did. We agreed the price and from there it was just a waiting game until I arrived. On arrival my driver was waiting for me and I went straight to the hospital for blood tests. I have to be honest when reading other reviews a lot has been said about how modern and clean the hospital is.. I was yet to be convinced as we have pretty high standards in the UK so was prepared to be underwhelmed. However the hospital was great and it was honestly more like a hotel!

I was up early and fed at the hotel and in starting the procedure at 0730. I was back at the hotel by 4pm. It was 7 hours of discomfort.. stiff necks.. dizziness etc. It was physically and mentally draining but it was WORTH IT. And I dont doubt it would have been any different anywhere else. All I would say is dont try and strike up a conversation with the nurses.. they dont speak English and you will quickly be told to stop talking haha! I was quoted 4000 grafts initially but ended up with 5300 and that cost me 1850 GBP which is great value.

I am writing the review now from the clinic and have just had my bandages off so I am in no way able to comment on how good it actually is…. I need to wait another 6 months for that! But what I will say is they do give you a guarantee certificate which states that they will redo any work for free if the grafts fail to take.

Overall I am happy with this clinic… maybe missing some things I would get back home for for a saving of 7 grand and a full head of hair… I cant complain. If you are going to go to Turkey to get this done.. go to Clinicana.

I had problems on the front and temple area was slowly receding. I couldn’t have found a better place for my treatment rather than Clinicana, I had about 4200 Grafts done with no Pain whatsoever regardless of the injection. Everything went smoothly as planned. I can Already see great results and honestly I am recommending anyone looking for a good result with high quality and precision of the hairs Transplant. Medication, Dinner, and all the necessary stuff required was given by Clinicana. Before the operation a brief introduction was given so as after the operation on how to take care of the new hairs. The doctors and Staff was really friendly and assisted me in every step, more like family. If you are looking for treatment for your Hairs, You should definitely pay a visit . Highly Recommended among all other places according to my in depth Research.

This has indeed been a great decision i took so far, thanks to Mr.Mulham for all the necessary requirements, information provided ,I have done it for the first time and indeed I have been extremely happy with the treatment, i got about 4200 grafts done Day before yesterday and i am already happy today that the results will be good as i can already see, I cant be more thankful for the Hospital Staff to accommodate me with extremely great hotel, airport pickup and drop off, everything is accessible around, I have researched for a very long time and came up to a decision of going with Clinicana for their extensive services; A Recommendation to all looking for a place for Hair Transplant with Amazing Price of 2400 USD which is worth it.

Treated by: Mr Mulham Attar

I just finished my hair transplant here at Clinicana and let me share my honest experience as I travelled from Canada (Calgary) to Istanbul for this reason. My decision to chose this clinic was a worth of 3 months search and then made my decision to travel with a lot of hesitation, nervousness and ofcourse little discomfort but this Clinic truly amazed me with a lot of qualities

Super friendly environment, I yet to witness this type of Hospital in All over North America because this seems like a 5 star hotel, certainly someone have to see it to believe it.

There was certainly some injections pains but overall fully satisfied with care provided to me by these professional folks, I heard so many stories of fake transplants done at house or apartments but I must admit this Clinic is super professional and truly genuine.

Everything went as I planned before coming from Canada, and I am leaving with big smile on my face.

If I have to refer anyone to anywhere then this is the place to be for your hair transplant.

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’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 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.
