Why Hairmedico

A different standard of
hair transplant care.

Surgeon Operates Personally

Dr. Arslan performs every extraction and implantation himself. Zero delegation to technicians. This is the primary differentiator between Hairmedico and the volume clinics.

One Patient Per Day

Six to eight hours of uninterrupted surgical focus. Your procedure is not shared with other patients. No rushing, no substitutions, no compromises on the day.

Ministry of Health Accredited

Hairmedico holds Turkish Ministry of Health accreditation. Dr. Arslan is a full FUE Europe member. These credentials are verifiable and non-purchased.

Algorithmic FUE™

Dr. Arslan's proprietary extraction and implantation methodology — systematic donor mapping, sequenced extraction and medicalised hairline design that plans for the next 20 years.

Personal Assessment First

No surgery date is confirmed until Dr. Arslan has personally reviewed your photographs, confirmed candidacy and recommended the appropriate technique. No date is sold before this step.

All-Inclusive Packages

Surgery, 5-star hotel (2 nights), VIP airport transfers, LOREW aftercare kit, PRP and 12-month follow-up in one transparent price. No hidden fees, no day-of additions.

Techniques

FUE, DHI and
Algorithmic FUE™.

FUE — Follicular Unit Extraction

The gold standard · Sapphire or standard punch

Individual follicular units are extracted from the donor zone and implanted into recipient sites created by the surgeon. Sapphire FUE uses gem-tipped blades for finer incisions and faster healing. Suitable for most cases up to 3,000 grafts.

Full FUE guide →

DHI — Direct Hair Implantation

Choi pen technique · No pre-made channels

Grafts are loaded directly into the Choi implanter pen and implanted without pre-made channels. Allows more precise control of angle, direction and density. Preferred for hairline work and the crown. Suitable for up to 4,500 grafts.

Full DHI guide →

Algorithmic FUE™

Dr. Arslan's proprietary method · Complex cases

A structured methodology applied to extraction sequencing, donor zone management and hairline design. Used for large sessions (4,500+ grafts), patients with limited donor supply, or those requiring a long-term strategic approach to future loss.

About Algorithmic FUE™ →

Sapphire FUE

Gem-tipped blades · Minimal trauma

A variation of FUE that uses sapphire-tipped blades to create recipient channels. The harder, smoother blade edge causes less tissue trauma, reduces swelling post-op and speeds healing. Dr. Arslan uses sapphire blades as standard for most FUE procedures.

Common Questions

Hair transplant
questions answered.

More questions? Ask Dr. Arslan's team directly on WhatsApp.

Is hair transplant in Turkey safe?

Safety depends entirely on the clinic, not the country. The key questions are: does the surgeon perform the operation themselves, is the clinic Ministry of Health accredited, and does the surgeon hold recognised membership in a professional body (such as FUE Europe)? At Hairmedico, all three criteria are met. See our complete safety guide →

How much does hair transplant cost in Turkey?

Hairmedico's pricing is provided upon request based on your specific case assessment. Packages include surgery, 5-star hotel (2 nights), VIP transfers, PRP, LOREW aftercare kit and 12-month follow-up. This total is consistently 60–80% less than equivalent care in the UK or US. See full pricing information →

What is the difference between FUE and DHI?

Both FUE and DHI extract follicles individually from the donor zone. The difference is in implantation: FUE creates recipient channels first then implants; DHI loads grafts into a Choi pen and implants directly without pre-made channels. DHI allows greater angle control and is preferred for the hairline and crown. Dr. Arslan recommends the technique based on your specific case. See our FUE vs DHI comparison →

When will I see the full result?

Transplanted hair sheds at weeks 2–4 (expected — the follicle is not lost). New growth begins at 3–4 months. At 6 months, around 50% of final density is visible. Full results are typically seen at 12–14 months. Our 12-month follow-up programme tracks your progress at each stage. See the full recovery timeline →

How many grafts will I need?

Graft requirements depend on your Norwood stage, the area to be covered, and your natural hair calibre and density. A Norwood III hairline restoration typically requires 1,500–2,500 grafts; a Norwood V restoration can require 3,500–5,000+. Dr. Arslan provides a precise graft estimate after reviewing your photographs — this is part of the free assessment.

How do I verify a hair transplant clinic in Turkey?

Ask four questions: (1) Is the surgeon present for the entire procedure? (2) How many patients per day? (3) Is the clinic Ministry of Health licensed? (4) Is the surgeon a member of FUE Europe or a comparable body? Any evasion of these questions is a red flag. See our full clinic verification checklist →
