while walking on the streets of Istanbul or during your check-in and passport control at the city's airports, it is inevitable that you will see men with white bandages wrapped around their heads. Some might wonder what these men are doing. No need to wonder any longer, they are frequenters of high-quality Turkish medical centers that offer hair transplants.
The top choice for hair transplants Turkey welcomes people from Middle East, Gulf countries and European countries for hair transplant operations. The quality of services and affordable prices has enabled Turkey to be ranked third in hair transplant procedures worldwide.
Turkey offers world class medical facilities at affordable prices for a hair transplant procedures which cost around $15,000 in the U.S. and most European countries, and $2,000 to $4,000 in Turkey.
"I wanted to look better. A better look with my hair would make me feel charming," an Israeli man said right before his hair transplant operation in Istanbul.
The young man, who preferred to remain anonymous, said he came to Turkey upon advice from his friend who underwent the same treatment in Istanbul some years ago.
"I just heard good things about Turkey, especially about Istanbul. My friend has also been in the city and I decided to come here when I saw the results," said the man, who is in his 20s.
He talked about the quality of the service in Turkey to Anadolu Agency (AA), "It's amazing. It is like VIP treatment. It's really good, I did not expect this kind of treatment."
Turkey is the most popular destination for hair transplants, according to Suhan Ayhan, the head of the Turkish Society of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery.
Answering a question about if people choose Turkey for the low cost, Hamiloğlu said that apart from relatively cheap prices, the country provides the best quality in service.
"There are several reasons. The affordable prices are not the only reason. Turkey has a lot of experience in this sector," he said.
Turkish surgeons are more experienced compared to those in Europe, Hamiloglu said, since they perform more hair transplant surgeries.
Canan Melike Köksüz, a medical aesthetics specialist at the NHC Istanbul clinic, said the same thing as Hamiloğlu. Köksüz added that quality and affordable price besides experienced surgeons make Turkey stand out as a popular destination.
"As long as we can continue to offer a qualified and low-price service, the demand in the Turkish hair transplantation market will increase."
"This is not a simple beauty treatment, rather microsurgery," Köksüz added. "The whole transplantation process should be monitored by health personnel."
Patients are required to wait 48 hours before washing their hair after the transplantation. The first washing is given in the clinic and the staff gives the patient with the necessary information to follow up, she said.
"If we continue to offer the best quality, Turkey's hair transplantation industry will continue to lead," she concluded.
