HAIR MEDICINE

  • Regenera Activa Mesotherapy

    Regenera Activa mesotherapy is an innovative cellular regeneration technique that normalises hair loss and stimulates regrowth. This method prevents rejection and optimises results of hair transplants in Turkey. It uses the patient’s own stem cells to revitalise hair follicles and improve scalp quality.

  • PRP Hair Treatment

    PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment effectively combats androgenetic and diffuse hair loss. This non-invasive therapy uses the patient’s growth factors to naturally stimulate hair regrowth, particularly after a transplant. PRP improves vascularisation of the scalp and strengthens existing follicles.

  • Fractional Laser Hair Treatment

    Fractional laser treatment is a painless technique that stimulates hair regrowth while accelerating healing. This non-invasive method uses laser light to activate stem cells in the hair follicle, improve microcirculation and promote the production of new hair fibres.

THE COURSE OF YOUR HAIR TRANSPLANT WITH DR CINIK

A meticulously orchestrated hair transplant, from initial consultation to final results.

INITIAL CONSULTATION AND PERSONALISED PLANNING

Our team of experts evaluates your situation through a thorough video consultation. This first step allows us to analyse your needs, define your objectives and develop a personalised treatment plan. Our specialists study your photos and medical questionnaire to propose the solution most suited to your situation.

YOUR STAY IN ISTANBUL

From your arrival, benefit from a VIP welcome and 5★ accommodation. A preoperative consultation allows detailed examination of your scalp and essential preoperative tests to ensure optimal intervention.

THE DAY OF THE PROCEDURE

On the day of the procedure, our experts draw your new hairline according to the established plan. The procedure, performed under local anaesthesia, combines precise extraction and meticulous implantation of grafts. Each step is carried out with particular attention by our experienced medical team to ensure natural and lasting results.

IMMEDIATE POST-OPERATIVE PHASE

The first days after the procedure are devoted to your comfort and recovery. You receive detailed instructions for the first night, followed by a post-operative check-up the next day. Our team guides you through the first wash and provides you with a complete kit with all necessary care instructions.

FIRST MONTH

This initial period is marked by the natural resting phase of the follicles. Temporary shedding of transplanted hair, called shock loss, is normal and expected. Redness gradually fades as the roots prepare for future regrowth.

3-4 MONTHS

The first signs of regrowth become visible. New hairs, initially fine, gradually emerge. Density begins to improve, marking the visible beginning of your transformation.

6 MONTHS

major turning point with approximately 60-70% of results visible. Your new hair gains thickness and texture. The hairline is clearly defined, already offering a significant improvement in your appearance.

9 MONTHS

Your transformation becomes evident with 80-90% of results. The hair reaches its maturity, natural density and definitive direction.

12 MONTHS - FINAL RESULT

The final result is established, with mature hair that behaves naturally. You enjoy optimal density and a lasting result.

FOLLOW-UP AND SUPPORT

Our team remains available throughout your journey, with regular remote monitoring and permanent assistance. Regular check-ups allow us to monitor your progress and optimise your results until complete satisfaction.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHY IS TURKEY SO RENOWNED FOR ITS HAIR TRANSPLANTS?

Turkey has established itself as a global reference for hair transplantation thanks to a unique combination of factors. Its cultural tradition valuing male hair has naturally led to the development of exceptional medical expertise in this field. As a pioneer of large-scale transplantation, Turkish surgeons have perfected their techniques over decades. The clinics, equipped with the most advanced technologies, rigorously respect international quality and safety standards. Medical excellence combined with competitive rates attracts millions of patients from around the world each year, consolidating Turkey’s status as a preferred destination for hair transplants.

WHY HAVE A HAIR TRANSPLANT IN ISTANBUL WITH DR CINIK?

Dr Emrah Cinik has established himself as an international authority in the field of hair transplantation. His expertise, forged through thousands of successful procedures, is based on a perfect mastery of the most advanced techniques such as FUE and DHI. His ultra-modern clinic stands out for its entirely personalised approach, offering each patient a tailor-made protocol adapted to their specific situation. The highly qualified medical team ensures rigorous post-operative follow-up and continuous support throughout the recovery process. Dr Cinik’s reputation for excellence in natural and lasting results makes him the preferred choice for patients demanding the highest level of quality for their hair transplant.

WHAT ARE THE MAIN SIDE EFFECTS OF A HAIR TRANSPLANT?

Like any surgical procedure, hair transplantation may cause certain temporary side effects. Patients may experience itching and scalp sensitivity in the days following the operation. Transient frontal oedema and mild discomfort are also common but quickly disappear. The formation of micro-crusts on the grafted areas is part of the normal healing process. More rarely, minor bleeding or, exceptionally, infections may occur if post-operative protocols are not followed. Temporary shedding of transplanted hair (“shock loss”) is a normal phenomenon that precedes definitive regrowth. These side effects are generally minimal and short-lived when the procedure is performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr Cinik.

IS IT RISKY TO HAVE HAIR IMPLANTS IN TURKEY?

Turkey is now considered one of the safest destinations for hair transplantation. The internationally recognised medical expertise of Turkish surgeons is supported by cutting-edge infrastructure and rigorous quality protocols, equivalent or superior to those of European establishments. The Turkish medical sector is governed by strict regulations guaranteeing patient safety. The experience gained in welcoming hundreds of thousands of international patients each year has allowed for optimised care of foreign patients. Nevertheless, as with any medical procedure, it remains essential to choose a reputable clinic and an experienced surgeon like Dr Cinik to minimise any potential risk and guarantee optimal results.

WHAT IS THE SUCCESS RATE OF A HAIR TRANSPLANT WITH DR CINIK?

Dr Cinik’s clinic boasts among the highest success rates in the sector. The graft survival rate generally exceeds 95%, and more than 98% of patients declare themselves fully satisfied with the results obtained. These exceptional performances are explained by the unique combination of Dr Cinik’s surgical expertise, the use of the most advanced techniques such as FUE and DHI, a rigorous selection process for candidates, and a meticulously personalised post-operative follow-up protocol. The quality of the donor area, scrupulous respect for post-operative instructions, and the general health of the patient are also determining factors in the remarkable success of the procedures performed at the clinic.

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR A HAIR TRANSPLANT?

Optimal preparation is essential to maximise the results of your hair transplant. The process begins with a thorough consultation with Dr Cinik’s team to precisely evaluate your expectations and needs. Comprehensive medical examinations, including specific blood tests, will determine your eligibility for the procedure. You will receive precise instructions regarding certain medications to temporarily suspend. It is strongly recommended to adopt impeccable lifestyle habits, particularly by stopping smoking and limiting alcohol consumption in the weeks preceding the operation. Also avoid any hair colouring and aggressive products for the scalp during the month preceding the procedure. Our team will provide you with a detailed personalised guide to accompany you through this crucial preparatory phase.

WHAT ARE THE POST-OPERATIVE CARE REQUIREMENTS?

Post-operative care plays a decisive role in the success of your hair transplant. We recommend sleeping with your head slightly elevated for the first week and avoiding any intense physical activity for at least 14 days. Scalp hygiene follows a specific protocol: you will meticulously apply the washing instructions provided by our medical team and exclusively use the recommended specialised products. Protection of the scalp against direct sun exposure is imperative during the first weeks. A balanced diet, rich in proteins and vitamins, associated with optimal hydration, will significantly promote healing. Follow the personalised medication prescription (antibiotics and anti-inflammatories) rigorously and scrupulously respect the schedule of follow-up consultations with our team. Any unusual manifestation should be immediately reported for rapid and appropriate management.

WHAT ARE THE STAGES OF REGROWTH?

Regrowth after a hair transplant follows a progressive and well-defined biological process. During the first two weeks, small protective crusts form on the recipient area, before naturally disappearing, taking the transplanted hair with them – a perfectly normal phenomenon. This is followed by a follicular resting phase of 2 to 3 months, during which little or no growth is perceptible. Temporary shedding of surrounding native hair, called “shock loss”, may occur but remains transient. Between the 3rd and 4th month, the first fine hairs emerge, signalling the effective beginning of regrowth. The period from the 4th to the 8th month marks the entry into the active growth phase, with progressive densification and the adoption by the hair of its definitive texture. The final results are generally established between the 9th and 12th month, when all the grafts have developed a mature head of hair, offering optimal density and natural appearance.

WHAT ACTIVITIES SHOULD BE AVOIDED AFTER THE OPERATION?

To optimise healing and the results of your hair transplant, certain temporary restrictions are essential. Alcohol consumption should be avoided for at least 7 days, as it significantly alters the processes of tissue healing. Intense sporting activities should be suspended for 2 to 3 weeks to avoid any trauma and limit excessive perspiration that could compromise the implantation of grafts. Wearing headgear (hats, caps) is not recommended during the first 10 days to avoid putting pressure on the grafted area. It is preferable to avoid any sexual activity for about ten days to prevent increased blood pressure and sweating. Swimming in pools, sea or baths is strictly contraindicated for a minimum of 4 weeks to eliminate any risk of infection. Protection against direct sun exposure is imperative for at least 3 months. Finally, the application of chemical hair products (dyes, perms) should be postponed for at least one month after the procedure.

IS THERE PAIN AFTER THE OPERATION?

The post-operative experience after a hair transplant performed by Dr Cinik is generally characterised by minimal discomfort, although perceptions vary among individuals. The majority of patients report slight sensitivity in the donor and recipient areas during the first 48 to 72 hours. Occasional itching and a feeling of tightness may occur during the initial healing phase, normal signs of the healing process. In almost all cases, mild painkillers prescribed are more than sufficient to manage any discomfort. This discomfort gradually subsides and generally disappears in less than a week. Our medical team remains available 24/7 to support you during this period. It is important to note that any intense or persistent pain, although exceptional, should be immediately reported as it could indicate a complication requiring medical attention.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT TRANSPLANT TECHNIQUE?

Selecting the optimal technique between FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is based on a personalised analysis of multiple factors. The extent of the area to be treated is a determining element: FUE is generally preferred for large areas, while DHI excels in restricted areas or those requiring exceptional precision. The characteristics of your scalp also influence this choice, with FUE being particularly well suited to patients with a thicker scalp. Recovery considerations may guide the decision, with DHI typically offering slightly accelerated convalescence with more discreet post-operative marks. The desired hair density represents another crucial criterion, with DHI often allowing superior follicular concentration in specific regions. Dr Cinik, perfectly mastering these two advanced techniques, will recommend the method most adapted to your particular situation after a thorough clinical evaluation, thus guaranteeing optimal and natural results.

HOW IS THE NUMBER OF IMPLANTED GRAFTS DETERMINED?

The precise determination of the number of grafts needed is a fundamental step based on a personalised multifactorial analysis. The extent of the alopecia represents the initial parameter, defining the total area to be treated. The desired hair density directly influences the calculation, with a fuller appearance requiring more follicular units. The potential of the donor area is precisely evaluated, as it establishes the upper limit of available grafts. The intrinsic characteristics of the hair – its texture, diameter and pigmentation – are meticulously analysed, with thick and dark hair generally offering better visual coverage. The patient’s age and the projection of the future evolution of their baldness are integrated for long-term strategic planning. Finally, the personal aesthetic objectives of the patient guide the entire process. Dr Cinik performs a highly personalised evaluation for each patient, taking into account all these variables to precisely determine the optimal number of grafts, thus ensuring results that are natural, aesthetic and lasting.

WHAT DO DR CINIK’S HAIR TRANSPLANT PACKAGES IN TURKEY INCLUDE?

The exclusive packages offered by Dr Cinik’s clinic are designed to provide a fully comprehensive experience, eliminating any logistical or organisational concerns. Each package includes the complete surgical procedure, regardless of the selected technique (FUE or DHI) and the number of grafts required. A session of PRP mesotherapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is systematically included to optimise vascularisation and stimulate hair regeneration. Complementary treatments such as Regenera Activa or fractional laser therapy may be incorporated according to the specific needs of the patient. A thorough consultation with Dr Cinik is included, allowing for a precise and personalised evaluation. Biological tests pre-operative and post-intervention care, including the first washing protocol, are fully covered. All necessary medications for your recovery are provided from the first day. The package also includes airport-hotel-clinic transfers and accommodation in a 5-star partner hotel. A dedicated English-speaking interpreter personally accompanies you throughout your stay, ensuring fluid communication at each stage of the process.

Choosing Dr Cinik means entrusting your hair transformation to a renowned practitioner, offering safe, proven treatments of superior quality, with the guarantee of optimal care.

THE PRICE OF A HAIR TRANSPLANT IN TURKEY VS THE PRICE OF A HAIR TRANSPLANT IN THE UK

Why Istanbul prevails over the UK

Istanbul has established itself as the global capital of hair transplantation, significantly surpassing the UK on the key aspects of this procedure. Dr Cinik perfectly embodies this Turkish excellence, offering a combination of expertise and services unmatched in Europe.

Expertise forged by intensive experience

Istanbul surgeons, with Dr Cinik as a leading figure, benefit from a volume of procedures unequalled in Europe. This intensive practice has allowed the development of exceptional surgical expertise. With more than 20,000 transplants performed, Dr Cinik perfectly masters the subtleties of each hair profile. This advanced specialisation guarantees optimal management of complex cases and results of impeccable naturalness, even for the most demanding profiles.

Technological innovation for superior results

Substantial investment in cutting-edge medical technologies clearly distinguishes Turkish clinics. Dr Cinik systematically integrates the most advanced techniques – Sapphire FUE, DHI – into his daily practice. These latest generation methods ensure superior densityperfect naturalnessaccelerated recovery and undetectable scars. Although these techniques exist in the UK, their availability remains limited and their mastery uneven across establishments.

A value-for-money ratio revolutionising access to excellence

The Turkish economic advantage fundamentally transforms accessibility to excellent care. Dr Cinik’s clinic offers all-inclusive premium packages starting at £2,000, covering the complete procedure, luxury accommodation and all transfers. This proposition radically contrasts with UK rates ranging between £8,000 and £12,000 for comparable quality, often without including peripheral costs. This substantial difference democratises access to elite hair transformation, previously reserved for a privileged clientele.

An integrated and stress-free patient experience

The Turkish model transcends simple medical intervention to offer a holistic experience. Dr Cinik deploys a fully orchestrated patient journey: VIP welcome, dedicated interpreter, luxury suite, permanent support and cultural discovery of Istanbul. This comprehensive care eliminates stress factors, optimises comfort and transforms a medical act into an enriching global experience, an aspect totally absent from the conventional British approach.

Post-operative follow-up redefining standards

Dr Cinik’s clinic has revolutionised post-intervention follow-up thanks to a sophisticated telemedicine system. Scheduled video consultations, dedicated digital platform, 24/7 multilingual assistance, regular photographic monitoring and personalised protocol guarantee constant support despite the distance. This system often surpasses British follow-up, which is more punctual and less technologically advanced, ensuring optimal long-term results.

Turkey, and particularly the excellence embodied by Dr Cinik, offers an unmatched combination of surgical expertisetechnological innovationeconomic accessibility and integrated patient experience. This exceptional value proposition explains why Istanbul has become the preferred destination for informed and demanding patients seeking excellent hair transformation with lasting results.

Hair Transplant Techniques at the Cutting Edge of Innovation

Dr Cinik excels in two advanced hair transplant techniques: FUE and DHI. These precision approaches guarantee results of exceptional naturalness while considerably minimising post-operative consequences.

The FUE Method: Follicular Unit Extraction

The FUE technique (Follicular Unit Extraction) represents a major advance in the field of hair transplantation. This high-precision method allows individual extraction of each follicular unit using micro-punches less than 1 mm in diameter. This microsurgical approach completely eliminates the traditional linear scar, for a perfectly discreet result.

After meticulous extraction, the grafts are reimplanted in the recipient area according to a personalised protocol. Dr Cinik determines with exceptional precision the optimal angle, depth and density of implantation for each patient, ensuring a perfectly harmonious and natural result.

Extraction Techniques
Manual Extraction

Manual extraction uses a specially designed punch, manipulated directly by the surgeon. This approach offers optimal surgical control and perfect adaptation to the particularities of each scalp. The quality of the grafts is preserved incomparably, guaranteeing a maximum survival rate.

Micro Punch Extraction

Extraction by motorised micro-punch combines surgical precision and speed of execution. This technique allows the collection of a significant number of grafts while maintaining consistent quality, ideal for procedures requiring a substantial volume of transplantation.

FUE Implantation Techniques
Implantation with Sapphire Blade

The revolutionary use of sapphire blades for creating implantation channels represents a significant advance. Sapphire, a material with exceptional properties, allows incisions of microscopic precision while promoting accelerated tissue healing. This technique is particularly distinguished for:

  • Remarkably high hair density
  • Results of perfect naturalness, particularly in frontal and temporal areas
  • Optimised post-operative recovery

DHI Hair Transplant

The DHI method (Direct Hair Implantation) marks a major evolution in hair transplant protocols. This innovative technique eliminates the prior incision step by allowing direct follicle implantation. The grafts, extracted with microscopic precision, are immediately reimplanted using a specialised instrument called a Choi implanter.

This high-tech tool gives Dr Cinik absolute control over every aspect of implantation:

  • Precise definition of the implantation angle
  • Perfect mastery of the insertion depth
  • Natural orientation of each follicle

The exclusive advantages of DHI include:

  • significant reduction in graft exposure time, maximising their survival rate
  • Particularly high hair density
  • Accelerated healing with minimal post-operative consequences

These two advanced surgical approaches, perfectly mastered by Dr Cinik, share decisive advantages: results of absolute naturalness, rapid and discreet healing, simplified recovery, ability to graft a large volume of follicles in a single session, and optimal preservation of graft viability.

The choice between FUE and DHI is determined during the preoperative consultation, according to the specific characteristics of each patient, the extent of the area to be treated and the aesthetic objectives sought.
