Basic Information About the Doctor:

Name:

Medical Education:
– Üsküdar University, First Aid and Emergency
– Bilgi University, Anesthesia
Experience:
– 10 years
Number of Procedures Performed:

Experience Gained At:
– Hair in Istanbul Clinic and various international hair transplant centers
Reason for Focusing on Hair Transplantation:
– “My experience in first aid and emergency medicine taught me the value of helping people instantly and changing their lives. However, the main reason I turned to hair transplantation was to help people regain their confidence through their appearance. Hair loss is not just a physical loss but also an emotional and psychological burden. When a person feels good looking in the mirror, moves confidently in social situations, and has high self-esteem, their quality of life improves significantly. Through hair transplantation, I can help people regain this confidence and create a positive change in their lives. Seeing my patients smile after a successful hair transplant and knowing I’ve made a difference in their lives is my greatest motivation in this field.”
What Satisfies You About This Field:
– “Seeing the happiness and satisfaction of my patients after each successful operation is my greatest source of fulfillment.”
First Hair Transplant Experience:
– “My first hair transplant at the clinic is still fresh in my memory. The significant change in the patient’s life and their gratitude made this experience unique.”
Decision to Open Your Own Hair Transplant Clinic:
– “I decided to open my own clinic to provide a more personalized and specialized service to my patients. This allows me to use the best treatment methods and technologies, offering the highest quality service.”
What Sets Hair in Istanbul Clinic Apart From the Competition:
– “Hair in Istanbul Clinic uses the latest technology to provide personalized treatment plans. We give special attention to each patient and are personally involved in every stage of the operation.”
Technicians and Hair Transplant Specialists:
– “In many clinics in Istanbul, only technicians are present in the operating room to reduce costs and accept more patients. However, this poses a risk to patient health and the success of the operation. Authorities need to pay more attention to this issue.”
Personal Involvement as a Hair Transplant Specialist:
– “My personal involvement in every procedure is crucial to ensure patient safety and the success of the operation. Technicians do not have the comprehensive medical knowledge and experience that hair transplant specialists have and may fall short in critical stages.”
The Most Important Stages of Hair Transplantation:
– “The most important stages of hair transplantation are the collection and placement of grafts. These stages require precision and experience and should always be performed by a hair transplant specialist.”
Membership in Associations:
– “There are mixed views on the participation of hair transplant specialists in associations. Personally, I believe these memberships are often for promotional purposes and do not contribute significantly. According to my research, many associations allow membership simply by paying a fee. Therefore, a specialist’s membership in an association does not directly reflect their quality or skills. What truly matters is the specialist’s experience, references, and patient satisfaction.”
Client Feedback:
– “Clients from all over the world come to us for hair transplantation and appreciate the quality of our work and the results. Our most praised qualities are our natural-looking results and personalized approach.”
Choosing a Hair Transplant Clinic in Turkey:
– “When choosing a hair transplant clinic in Turkey, it is essential to consider the specialist’s experience and the clinic’s references. To identify an unsafe clinic, check if the specialist is personally involved in the operations and whether the technologies used are up-to-date.”
Ideal Candidates for Hair Transplant:
– “An ideal candidate for hair transplantation is someone with genetic hair loss who has largely completed the hair loss process. Hair transplantation should not be performed on individuals with active hair loss or serious health issues.”
Largest Hair Transplant Performed:
– “The largest hair transplant I have performed involved transplanting over 7,500 grafts in a single day. Such large operations require careful planning and high experience.”
Maximum Grafts Transplanted in a Day:
– “We typically transplant a maximum of 5,000-5.500 grafts in a single surgical day. This number is ideal for ensuring the safety of the operation and the healthy attachment of the grafts.”
Best Hair Transplant Method:
– “I prefer the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method for hair transplantation. This method is minimally invasive and provides natural results, making it the most popular choice among our patients.”
Advice for Clients with Recent Hair Loss:
– “For clients whose hair has only recently started to fall out, I recommend trying treatments that can stop hair loss and waiting a bit longer for hair transplantation. Better results can be achieved when hair loss has completely stopped.”
Identifying a Good Hair Transplant Specialist:
– “To identify a good hair transplant specialist, consider their experience, references, and whether they are personally involved in the operations. It is also important to see if they keep up with the latest technologies and methods.”
Natural Look of Hair Transplants:
– “The secret to the natural look of our hair transplants is personalized planning that matches the patient’s hair structure and facial features. Grafts are placed at the correct angles and with natural density to achieve the best results.”
Pain and Healing in Hair Transplantation:
– “Hair transplantation and scalp healing generally involve minimal pain and discomfort. Patients can usually return to their daily activities shortly after the operation.”
Principles Strictly Followed in Your Work:
– “The principles we strictly adhere to in our work are patient safety, natural results, and high hygiene standards. These principles ensure patient satisfaction and the success of our operations.”
Hair Transplantation in Turkey:
– “Patients should not be afraid of hair transplantation in Turkey. However, it is important to have a skilled and experienced specialist to handle any complications. Our graft attachment rate is over 95%.”
Beard Transplantation:
– “Interest in beard transplantation has significantly increased in recent years. Beard transplantation requires careful planning and experience to achieve natural-looking results.”
Robotic Hair Transplantation:
– “There are mixed opinions on robotic hair transplantation. While robotic systems offer advantages in repeatability and speed, they can never match the dexterity and precision of a human specialist. Robots may fall short in placing grafts at the correct angles and positions, which are crucial for natural results. Therefore, we do not recommend robotic hair transplantation and believe that results from experienced specialists are more reliable.”
Common Mistakes in Lower Quality Clinics:
– “Common mistakes in lower quality clinics include incorrect graft placement, inadequate hygiene, and the use of inexperienced technicians.”
Maximum Procedures Performed Per Day in Your Clinic:
– “We perform a maximum of 4-5 procedures per day in our clinic to ensure that each patient receives adequate time and attention.”
Favorite Places in Istanbul:
– “My favorite places in Istanbul include Sultanahmet, the Grand Bazaar, and the Bosphorus. I recommend that our clients explore these historical and cultural landmarks.”
Shaving Before a Hair Transplant:
– “Shaving the head before a hair transplant is generally not necessary. However, it may be required for very dense and large areas to achieve better results.”
Hair Transplantation for Women:
– “Hair transplantation can also be suitable for women, especially those experiencing genetic hair loss or hair loss in specific areas. However, it is essential to conduct a detailed dermatological evaluation first as the causes of hair loss in women can be more varied.”
Non-Invasive Hair Care Methods:
– “Clients should try non-invasive hair care methods before proceeding with a hair transplant. Treatments like PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), mesotherapy, and minoxidil have shown positive results in many cases.”
Determining the Hairline:
– “When determining the shape of the hairline, I consider the client’s facial features and natural hair structure. The goal is to achieve a symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing look.”
Future of the Hair Transplant Industry:
– “I see the future of the hair transplant industry focusing on more minimally invasive methods and techniques that ensure a faster healing process. At our clinic, we aim to stay at the forefront by adopting the latest technologies and treatment methods to provide the best possible service to our patients.”
