Dr Musbeh ARSLAN, Hair Transplant Surgeon
Turkey stands as the global leader in hair transplantation, welcoming over one million international patients annually. This dominance stems from a rare combination of affordability, surgical innovation, and a medical tourism infrastructure capable of meeting the needs of patients from Europe, the Middle East, North America, and Asia.
At the forefront is Hairmedico Clinic, headquartered in Istanbul with branches in Paris and Luxembourg. Founded and led by Dr. Arslan Musbeh, a globally respected surgeon with 18+ years of experience, Hairmedico has become synonymous with natural, permanent, and artistically designed hair restoration.
Turkey’s hair transplant market continues to grow at a rate of 15–20% annually. Istanbul remains the industry’s hub, attracting patients who seek high-quality results at globally competitive prices.
In much of Europe, FUE procedures range between €6,000–€12,000. At Hairmedico, patients enjoy equivalent or superior results at 50–70% lower costs, with inclusions such as luxury accommodation, VIP transfers, dedicated aftercare kits, and a 12-month follow-up plan.
Direct flights from major global hubs
Visa-free or visa-on-arrival entry for many countries
Government-certified clinics that comply with EU hygiene standards
Comprehensive, all-inclusive packages tailored to international patients
While some clinics operate on high patient volumes, Hairmedico limits daily procedures to ensure precision in donor management, optimal graft survival rates, and hairlines that harmonise with individual facial structures.
Our mission is to merge medical innovation with artistic expertise. At Hairmedico, every treatment adheres to strict European hygiene standards while prioritising patient well-being and natural results.
Medical Degree: Odessa National Medical University (1993–2000)
Advanced Studies: Medical University of Tours, France (2004–2008)
Specialization: University Diploma in Baldness Treatment – Claude Bernard University, Lyon 1 (2018)
Global Educator: Head of Hairmedico Academy, training doctors worldwide in FUE vs DHI, Sapphire FUE, and DHI
Innovator: Creator of Algorithmic FUE™, an AI-assisted protocol ensuring personalised, predictable, and reproducible outcomes
Dr. Musbeh personally oversees every procedure, ensuring the highest level of quality and precision.
With services available in English, French, and Arabic, Hairmedico ensures smooth communication and cultural comfort for patients from France, the UK, the USA, the Gulf, and beyond.
At Hairmedico, every patient benefits from a customised treatment plan based on donor density, hair type, and desired results. Techniques include:
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction): Minimal scarring, quick recovery, high graft survival.
Sapphire FUE: Sapphire blades for finer incisions, faster healing, and higher density.
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation): Choi implanter pens for precise angle control and minimal graft handling.
Algorithmic FUE™: AI-driven donor analysis, facial mapping, and realistic simulation.
The FUE hair transplant is one of the most widely practiced methods globally. It involves extracting individual follicular units from the donor area — typically the back or sides of the scalp — and implanting them into the thinning or balding areas.
Advantages of FUE at Hairmedico:
Minimal scarring: Only tiny, dot-like scars remain, invisible even with short hair.
Quick recovery: Most patients return to work within 3–5 days.
High graft survival rate: Thanks to precise extraction and preservation techniques.
Why Hairmedico’s FUE is Different:
Unlike high-volume clinics that prioritise speed over precision, Hairmedico limits the number of surgeries per day. This ensures meticulous graft handling, better graft survival, and natural density gradients in the implanted area.
Sapphire FUE is an advanced version of the FUE technique, using blades made from sapphire crystal instead of steel.
Key Benefits:
Sharper, smoother blades: Allow for finer incisions and less tissue trauma.
Faster healing: Reduced swelling and quicker recovery due to precise incisions.
Higher density potential: More channels can be created without compromising blood flow.
At Hairmedico, Sapphire FUE is often recommended for patients seeking high-density results and minimal downtime. Combined with Algorithmic FUE™ planning, the technique can produce a hairline that is both artistically appealing and medically sound.
The DHI hair transplant technique uses a Choi implanter pen to place follicles directly into the recipient area without creating pre-made incisions.
Advantages of DHI at Hairmedico:
Precise angle control: Essential for mimicking the natural direction of hair growth.
High density in smaller areas: Ideal for hairline refinement and eyebrow/temple restoration.
Minimal handling of grafts: Reduces the risk of follicle damage.
Hairmedico’s surgical team, trained directly by Dr. Arslan Musbeh, has mastered the DHI technique for both male and female patients, ensuring high-density, natural-looking outcomes.
Algorithmic FUE™ is the clinic’s proprietary technique that integrates artificial intelligence into every stage of the planning process.
How It Works:
3D digital donor analysis: AI scans the donor area to measure density and calculate safe extraction limits.
Facial mapping: AI models the ideal hairline based on the patient’s facial proportions, skin tone, and age.
Simulation preview: Patients can view a realistic projection of their potential results before surgery.
Benefits:
Customised hairline design
Optimised graft usage
Predictable, reproducible results
No other clinic in Turkey offers this exact AI-driven process, making Hairmedico’s Algorithmic FUE™ a game-changer in medical tourism.
At Hairmedico Clinic, the patient journey is designed to be seamless, comfortable, and completely personalised. Every step is carefully managed under European hygiene standards and with direct supervision from Dr. Arslan Musbeh.
How it begins: Patients typically reach out via Hairmedico’s website, WhatsApp, or social media channels.
Photo analysis: The clinic requests high-resolution photos of the front, top, sides, and back of the head.
Preliminary assessment: Using these images, the team provides an initial graft estimate and recommends the most suitable technique (FUE, Sapphire FUE, DHI, or Algorithmic FUE™).
Multilingual support: Consultations are available in English, French, and Arabic.
Upon arrival in Istanbul, patients meet Dr. Arslan Musbeh in person.
A detailed scalp examination is conducted, including donor density measurement and skin type analysis.
The Algorithmic FUE™ system is used to:
Analyse donor area capacity in 3D
Model a natural hairline according to facial proportions
Simulate post-surgery results for patient approval
Medical check-up: Blood tests and a brief medical history review ensure patient safety.
Hair trimming: Depending on the technique, full or partial shaving is performed (unshaven options are available).
Local anaesthesia: Administered to donor and recipient areas for a pain-free experience.
Performed by Dr. Musbeh and his trained surgical team.
Micromotor or manual punch extraction ensures minimal trauma.
Grafts are kept in a special preservation solution to maintain viability.
For Sapphire FUE: Sapphire blades create ultra-fine channels for natural angulation.
For DHI: Choi implanter pens place grafts directly without prior incisions.
Hairline area: Only single-hair grafts are used for a soft, natural transition.
Crown/mid-scalp: Multi-hair grafts are strategically placed for density.
The scalp is gently cleaned, and a bandage is applied to the donor area.
Patients receive an aftercare kit containing:
Foam shampoo
Soothing spray
Written and video instructions for the first 10 days
Day 1–10: Hairmedico provides daily guidance on washing and scab removal.
Month 1–3: Monitoring the shedding phase (shock loss) and scalp healing.
Month 6: Progress check to assess early growth.
Month 12: Final evaluation, with before/after photos compared to the pre-op simulation.
💡 Why This Process Works:
By combining AI-assisted planning, microsurgical precision, and continuous aftercare, Hairmedico ensures high graft survival rates, minimal scarring, and lifelong natural results.
One of the main reasons Turkey — and particularly Hairmedico Clinic — attracts thousands of medical tourists each year is the combination of world-class quality and transparent, competitive pricing.
Hairmedico operates on a clear, no-hidden-fees model. The total cost of a hair transplant in Turkey is determined by:
Number of grafts required: Calculated after AI-assisted donor analysis.
Chosen technique: FUE, Sapphire FUE, DHI, or Algorithmic FUE™.
Complexity of the case: Previous surgeries, scar tissue, or corrective procedures may influence cost.
Patients are informed of the exact final price before booking, ensuring there are no surprises on the day of surgery.
Standard FUE: €2,500 – €3,500
Sapphire FUE: €3,000 – €4,000
DHI Hair Transplant: €3,500 – €4,500
Algorithmic FUE™: €4,000 – €5,500 (includes AI-assisted planning & simulation)
💡 Note: Prices at Hairmedico include more than just the procedure — they cover the full medical tourism experience.

Istanbul has become a leading hub for medical tourism in Turkey, offering:
Modern, internationally accredited hospitals and clinics
Medical staff fluent in multiple languages
Hotels experienced in hosting international patients
Seamless coordination between airports, hotels, and clinics
Hairmedico partners only with premium hotels located near the clinic, ensuring patients can rest in comfort before and after surgery.
VIP Transfers: Private cars ensure stress-free transportation between the airport, hotel, and clinic.
Discreet Service: For patients seeking privacy, Hairmedico arranges unshaven hair transplant options and discreet pick-ups.
Central Location: The clinic is located in a safe, modern district with easy access to restaurants, shops, and pharmacies.
While the first few days post-surgery require rest, many patients enjoy light sightseeing before leaving:
Historical landmarks: Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace
Scenic views: Bosphorus cruises and waterfront cafes
Shopping: Grand Bazaar and contemporary malls
Cuisine: Enjoy traditional Turkish dishes and modern fusion cuisine
Hairmedico’s patient coordinators can recommend safe activities during recovery and even arrange guided tours for companions.
Traveling for a hair transplant at Hairmedico not only delivers aesthetic transformation, but also:
The confidence boost of a new look
The cultural enrichment of experiencing Istanbul
The reassurance of world-class medical standards combined with genuine hospitality
💡 Why It Matters:
By offering both medical excellence and a rich cultural experience, Hairmedico makes the journey rewarding for patients on multiple levels — ensuring they leave Istanbul not only with restored hair but also with lasting positive memories.
A successful hair transplant doesn’t end when you leave the clinic. At Hairmedico, the recovery phase is just as important as the surgery itself. With 12 months of follow-up care, patients are supported at every stage — from the first wash to the final growth milestone.
Mild redness and swelling in both donor and recipient areas are normal.
Patients are advised to sleep at a 45-degree angle to prevent swelling.
Avoid touching or scratching the implanted area.
Hairmedico provides a medical spray to keep grafts hydrated and promote healing.
The first wash is performed at the clinic or under video guidance.
Foam shampoo is applied gently to avoid damaging the grafts.
By day 10, most scabs naturally fall off, revealing a cleaner scalp.
Redness fades, and the scalp begins to feel normal again.
Patients can return to light physical activities but should avoid swimming, saunas, and intense workouts.
Transplanted hairs may fall out — this is a normal and expected process.
The follicles remain intact beneath the skin and will start producing new hair after the resting phase.
Fine, thin hairs start to appear.
Density gradually improves, and the hairline becomes more visible.
Patients are encouraged to maintain a nutritious diet and follow any recommended supplements to support growth.
Hair thickens, density increases, and styling options expand.
Patients often notice a boost in confidence and self-image during this stage.
Full maturity of transplanted hair: thicker strands, complete density, and seamless blending with native hair.
At Hairmedico, final results often match or exceed the pre-surgery simulation created during the Algorithmic FUE™ planning stage.
Transplanted hair is permanent because it’s resistant to the hormone DHT (responsible for male pattern baldness).
Patients should still monitor and, if needed, treat native hair to prevent future thinning — Hairmedico offers ongoing solutions such as PRP therapy, mesotherapy, and hair care programs.
💡 Why Hairmedico’s Aftercare Stands Out:
Detailed written & video instructions for every recovery stage
24/7 direct communication with patient coordinators
AI-assisted growth monitoring for selected patients
Optional follow-up visits at Hairmedico’s Paris or Luxembourg branches
Q1: Is a hair transplant in Turkey safe?
Yes — when performed in a certified clinic like Hairmedico, which follows European-standard hygiene protocols and uses advanced surgical techniques. All operations are personally supervised by Dr. Arslan Musbeh.
Q2: How long does the procedure take?
Typically 6–8 hours, depending on the number of grafts, technique (FUE, Sapphire FUE, DHI, or Algorithmic FUE™), and case complexity.
Q3: Will my hair look natural after the transplant?
Absolutely. Hairmedico uses AI-assisted hairline design, single-hair grafts for the hairline, and precise angulation to ensure results blend seamlessly with your natural hair.
Q4: Is the hair transplant procedure painful?
Local anaesthesia ensures minimal discomfort during the procedure. Most patients describe the process as painless, with only mild tightness or tenderness afterward.
Q5: How soon can I return to work?
Many patients return to work within 3–5 days, especially in non-physical jobs. For public-facing roles, unshaven techniques can reduce downtime.
Q6: Will the results be permanent?
Yes. The transplanted follicles are resistant to DHT, the hormone that causes male pattern baldness, making them permanent.
Q7: Can women have hair transplants at Hairmedico?
Yes — the clinic offers female hair transplant procedures tailored for women experiencing thinning, receding hairlines, or pattern baldness.
