Hair transplant in Turkey, done properly.

Experienced teams, modern FUE, DHI and Sapphire techniques, and transparent all-inclusive pricing — with an honest assessment of what's realistic for you.

Overview

The right technique for your hair, not a factory line

Turkey is the world's leading destination for hair transplants, and that reputation cuts both ways: for every careful clinic there's a factory line pushing volume. We start somewhere quieter, with a proper look at how your hair is thinning and what your donor area can realistically give. The technique and the graft count follow from that, so the plan fits you rather than a template. New hair arrives slowly, over months, and we'll be straight with you about that from the first conversation.

What to expect

A natural hairline, planned around your face

You'll judge a hair transplant in years, not in the week after surgery, which is why the planning deserves as much attention as the operating chair. Your specialist studies your donor area, works out the pattern and stage of your hair loss, and is honest about the density that's actually achievable before drawing a hairline that suits your face and your age. At SaluVista, hair restoration is led by Op. Dr. Caner K., a plastic surgeon with an aesthetic eye for natural results.

FUE, DHI and Sapphire — what's the difference?

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) removes individual grafts from the donor area and implants them into fine channels, with no linear scar. Sapphire FUE uses sapphire blades to open finer, cleaner channels, which can support dense, precise placement. DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) uses a Choi implanter pen to extract and place grafts in one motion, giving tight control over the angle and direction of each hair. Which one suits you comes down to your hair, your goals and what your surgeon sees when they examine you. There's no single technique that's right for everyone.

The growth timeline

Here's the part that catches most people off guard: the transplanted hair usually falls out within the first few weeks. That shedding is normal and expected, not a sign anything has gone wrong. Fresh growth starts coming through over the following months, is clearly visible by around six months, and keeps thickening and maturing up to roughly twelve to eighteen months. It's a slow reveal, and worth sitting tight for.

Honest graft planning

We won't promise coverage your donor area can't sustain. Chasing a big graft number in one session tends to spend hair you'll wish you still had ten years from now, so a sensible plan protects the long-term result instead. Your specialist walks you through what's realistic, and you see a clear quote before you commit to anything: a single session starts from £1,500 (≈ €1,750) with an unlimited graft count.

Answers

Common questions

How much does a hair transplant in Turkey cost?
Pricing depends on your graft count and technique. SaluVista gives a transparent, itemised quote before you commit. A hair transplant starts from £1,500 (≈ €1,750) for a single session with an unlimited number of grafts.
How long until I see results?
New growth develops gradually, typically becoming clear over several months to a year. Your specialist explains your personal timeline.
How long do I stay in Turkey?
Most hair transplant visits are short — often a few days. Your specialist confirms the details.
Will the result look natural?
A natural hairline comes from careful design — the right angle, direction and density for your face and age. That planning, done by an experienced specialist, is what separates a good result from an obvious one.
Is a hair transplant painful?
The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so you're comfortable throughout. Some tenderness and swelling in the first days is normal and settles quickly with the aftercare guidance you're given.
Am I a good candidate?
It depends on your pattern of hair loss and the quality of your donor area. Your specialist reviews your photos and advises honestly — including if a transplant isn't the right step for you yet.
