Hair Transplant in Turkey — UK Patient Guide
FUE and DHI hair restoration in Antalya — clinic verification, typical 3-day visit, graft planning and AK-1013 intermediary coordination for UK patients.
OrbisMed Travel is a licensed health tourism intermediary (AK-1013), not a healthcare facility. Clinical care is delivered by contracted partner clinics. Individual results vary.
Turkey is a major destination for hair restoration. This guide helps UK patients understand FUE and DHI pathways, what to verify before flights, and how OrbisMed Travel coordinates care at authorised partner clinics — we do not perform surgery.
Who this guide is for
You are researching FUE, DHI, beard or eyebrow transplant with a written plan before booking. You want hospital or clinic authorization confirmed — not only before-and-after reels.
FUE vs DHI in plain English
| Technique | Summary |
|---|---|
| FUE | Individual grafts harvested and implanted — widely used, artist-led hairline design |
| DHI | Implanter pen places grafts — different tooling; suitability is clinical |
Your surgeon recommends technique after assessing donor density, hair calibre and recipient area. Online graft numbers without photos are estimates only.
What to confirm in writing
- Partner clinic or hospital name and authorization
- Estimated graft range and hairline plan philosophy
- Procedure day recovery and post-op kit
- Follow-up review before departure
- Transfers and hotel nights if bundled
- Aftercare contact when home (shock loss, washing protocol)
Verify providers — same certificate checks apply to hair clinics. AK-1013 covers intermediary coordination.
Typical Antalya visit (~3 days)
| Day | Outline |
|---|---|
| 1 | Arrival, consultation, hairline design, consent |
| 2 | Procedure day |
| 3 | Review, washing instructions, travel clearance |
Healing continues for months — shock loss is normal before new growth.
UK aftercare reality
- GP may help with infection concerns; cosmetic density issues are usually private
- Follow written washing and sleeping instructions
- Coordinate through OrbisMed WhatsApp for clinical questions

Frequently Asked Questions
Is hair transplant in Turkey safe?
Outcomes depend on clinic standards and technique — not country. Verify authorization and surgeon credentials.
How many grafts do I need?
Donor assessment and recipient area size decide — not marketing tables.
Is one trip enough?
Most FUE/DHI cases complete in one visit; touch-ups may be discussed separately.
Does OrbisMed perform the surgery?
No — we coordinate authorised partner clinics.
Can I combine hair transplant with dental treatment?
Sometimes — discuss timing with your coordinator; separate clinical teams.
