FUE Hair Transplant

Overview

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is the gold-standard hair transplant technique worldwide and the procedure that put Istanbul on the global map. Individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area (typically the back of the scalp), then implanted into the thinning or bald areas. There is no linear scar, recovery is fast, and results are permanent. Turkey performs more FUE transplants than any other country in the world — with highly experienced teams, state-of-the-art clinics, and prices 60–80% lower than the UK.

What to Expect

Most FUE procedures in Turkey are completed in a single day (8–10 hours for a large session). Day 1 is consultation, design, and the procedure. Day 2 is the first wash and aftercare briefing. Most patients fly home on day 3.
