Restore your confidence with advanced FUE and DHI techniques performed by our board-certified surgeons in Istanbul's premier clinic. Natural-looking, permanent results.
A hair transplant is a surgical procedure that moves hair follicles from a donor area — typically the back and sides of the head — to thinning or balding areas. Unlike temporary solutions such as wigs or medications, a hair transplant provides permanent, natural-looking results because the transplanted follicles are genetically resistant to DHT, the hormone that causes pattern baldness.
At FolyCure, we specialize in two advanced extraction techniques: Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Direct Hair Implantation (DHI). Both methods extract individual follicular units, leaving no linear scarring. The choice of technique depends on your hair loss pattern, donor area density, and desired outcome.
Ideal candidates include men and women experiencing androgenetic alopecia, those with stable hair loss, traction alopecia, or scarring from previous surgeries or injuries. During your free consultation, our surgeons evaluate your donor area, discuss realistic expectations, and design a customized treatment plan.
Turkey has become the world's leading destination for hair transplantation, performing over 500,000 procedures annually. The combination of highly experienced surgeons, state-of-the-art facilities, and significantly lower costs compared to the US and Europe makes Istanbul the top choice for international patients. At FolyCure, you receive the same quality of care as Western clinics at a fraction of the price, with all-inclusive packages covering your hotel, transfers, and aftercare.
We offer the latest hair restoration techniques, each tailored to your specific needs.
Individual grafts are harvested using a micro-punch tool (0.6-0.8mm). No linear scar, faster healing, and natural results. Ideal for up to 5,000 grafts per session.
Learn About FUE →Direct Hair Implantation uses a Choi pen to implant grafts directly without pre-made channels. Greater control over angle, depth, and direction for maximum density.
Learn About DHI →An advanced FUE variation using sapphire-tipped blades. V-shaped incisions result in faster healing, less tissue damage, denser packing, and a more natural growth pattern.
Learn About Sapphire FUE →For maximum coverage, we combine FUE and DHI in a single session. FUE for the crown and mid-scalp, DHI for the hairline — delivering the best of both methods.
Get Expert Advice →The number of grafts depends on your hair loss stage. Below is a general guide — your surgeon will provide a precise assessment during your free consultation.
Slight recession at the temples. Typically requires 1,500 — 2,000 grafts for natural hairline restoration.
From €1,490
Deeper temporal recession forming an M or V shape. Usually requires 2,000 — 2,500 grafts.
From €1,790
Significant frontal hair loss with crown thinning. Requires 2,500 — 3,500 grafts for full coverage.
From €1,990
Extensive baldness from frontal area through crown. Requires 3,500 — 5,500+ grafts, may need multiple sessions.
From €2,490
Send us your photos for a free hair analysis. Our surgeon evaluates your donor area, determines graft count, and recommends the best technique.
Our VIP transfer picks you up at Istanbul airport. Next morning, blood tests and a detailed pre-operative consultation at the clinic.
Your surgeon designs a natural hairline customized to your facial structure, age, and preferences. You approve every detail before the procedure.
Under local anesthesia, grafts are extracted and implanted. The process takes 6-8 hours. You can watch movies or rest comfortably.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you feel no pain during surgery. We use a needle-free jet injector to minimize discomfort during anesthesia. Any mild post-operative soreness is managed with prescribed medication for 2-3 days.
Most patients return to desk work within 3-5 days. The donor area heals within 7-10 days. Scabs in the recipient area fall off within 10-14 days. Avoid strenuous exercise for 4 weeks.
Transplanted hair sheds at weeks 2-6 (normal "shock loss"). New growth begins at months 3-4, noticeable improvement by month 6, and final results with full density at 12-18 months.
Yes. Transplanted follicles are from the DHT-resistant donor zone and will continue to grow permanently in their new location, just as they would in the donor area.
Good candidates are generally aged 25+ with stable hair loss and sufficient donor density. Both men and women can benefit. Send us your photos for a free assessment.
In FUE, grafts are extracted then channels are opened before implantation. In DHI, a Choi pen implants directly without pre-made channels. DHI offers greater angle control for hairlines; FUE covers larger areas. We may combine both for optimal results.
Graft count varies by hair loss stage: early recession 1,500-2,000, moderate loss 2,500-3,500, advanced loss 4,000-5,500+. Each graft contains 1-4 hairs. Send photos for a free estimate.
Packages include the transplant procedure, blood tests, hotel accommodation, VIP airport and clinic transfers, medications, aftercare products, PRP sessions, a patient coordinator, and long-term follow-up. Flights are not included.
