  • To determine if you are a good candidate for a hair transplant, we follow a thorough evaluation process:

    1. Consultation: We will arrange a consultation with you prior to booking your procedure. This can be conducted via FaceTime, Zoom, or a similar platform, allowing us to discuss your needs and assess your suitability.

    2. Evaluation: During the consultation, we may ask you to send us some photos of your hair and scalp. This helps us evaluate your hair loss pattern and determine the best approach for your treatment.

    3. Assessment: Based on the information provided, our team will assess factors such as the extent of hair loss, your overall health, and your hair restoration goals. This assessment helps ensure that the procedure is tailored to your specific needs and expectations.

    4. Personalized Advice: After evaluating your condition, we will provide personalized advice on whether a hair transplant is the right option for you and discuss the best treatment plan.

    Our goal is to ensure that you are well-informed and confident in your decision, with a clear understanding of how a hair transplant can address your concerns.

  • Week 1: After your hair transplant, you may experience some pain, inflammation, bruising, and blistering, but these symptoms should subside by the end of the first week. During this time, you might opt for a classic shaved haircut for a clean look.

    Weeks 2-3: It's normal for the recently transplanted hair to fall out within 2 to 3 weeks following the procedure. This shedding is a standard part of the hair growth cycle and should not be a cause for concern. The hair follicles enter a resting phase but will soon resume the growth process.

    Months 2-3: At this stage, you might notice that the transplanted area looks similar to how it did before the procedure, which is also typical. Continue to follow your post-procedure care instructions and attend any scheduled follow-up appointments with your surgeon.

    Month 4: By around 4 months, you should start to see new hair growth from the transplanted follicles. Although the hair may be fine and sparse at this point, this indicates that the growth process is underway.

    Month 9: As you approach 9 months, your hair should become significantly denser and longer. You will be able to style it as desired. It's advisable to have a follow-up consultation with your surgeon to assess progress.

    1 Year: After one year, the results of the transplant will be nearly complete in terms of development, depth, and volume. By this time, the majority of your hair follicles should be producing healthy, natural-looking hair.

    Overall, while initial changes may be visible within a few months, the full extent of the results typically becomes apparent after about a year.

  • After our consultation, we can often schedule your hair transplant procedure quite promptly. In many cases, we can even book you in within 48 hours, depending on the availability at our clinic and the time it takes for you to travel to Turkey. We'll work closely with you to find the best possible date for your procedure and ensure everything is arranged to suit your schedule.

  • No, hair transplants are not just for men. Women are increasingly seeking hair transplants, with the number of female patients rising significantly. Many women pursue hair transplants to address thinning hair or hair loss, as well as to improve the appearance of their hairline and forehead, achieving fuller and more natural-looking results.

Our all-inclusive package starts from $8,000 AUD*. This price covers:

  • Hair Transplant Operation: The procedure itself, performed by top specialists.

  • International Flights: Round-trip airfare to Istanbul.

  • Accommodation: 2 nights at a 5-star hotel.

  • VIP Transfer: Luxury vehicle transportation for airport and clinic transfers.

  • Translator: Assistance from a translator to ensure smooth communication.

Booking this package is significantly more cost-effective than arranging each component individually. You’ll enjoy substantial savings while benefiting from a seamless, high-quality experience.

If you prefer to book your own flights, accommodation, and transportation, but still want to use our consultation and hair transplant services, the price starts at $4,000 AUD.

*Please note that prices are subject to availability and may vary based on the cost of flights, accommodation, and other travel-related expenses.
