Growing older comes with the issue of hair loss. To fight this, people seek recourse in hair transplant procedures that help prevent hair loss. Although women are affected by this issue, men are the ones who primarily experience hair loss and ultimately seek out means to reverse it.
In the last few years, Turkey has become one of the global hotspots for medical tourism, specifically for those seeking hair transplant procedures. As of 2017, an estimated 150-500 hair transplant procedures were carried out in Turkey. This boom in the interest in the Turkish medical services developed because of the reasonable cost for hair transplant procedures coupled with the skills and qualifications of the doctors.
Cost of hair transplant treatment across countries
Such procedures come at a high cost in many hair transplant clinics in countries like the United Kingdom and the United States. In the US, hair transplant procedures often cost between $4,000-$15,000. This cutthroat price has led many to seek other alternatives for the transplant procedure in countries like Turkey where the price for a hair transplant procedure has an average cost of $2600 with a minimum of $1200 and a maximum of $6000. Turkish hospitals and doctors offering hair transplant services are patronised by willing customers from all over who are seeking quality work for a reasonable amount of money. The doctors conducting the transplants are qualified professionals who adhere to international requirements and provide the best services. While maneuvering hair transplant costs in Turkey, patients should also patronise clinics that are known to deliver great services, and not just consider price alone.

Sapphire DHI hair transplant technique
The Micro Sapphire DHI is the most frequently performed method in Cosmedica. This innovation is not as invasive as previous techniques, and therefore it is used at Cosmedica. It involves transferring hair follicles from an area with healthy hair follicles to the areas that have suffered from hair loss. The donor area is usually the back of the head. The Sapphire DHI hair transplant is more advanced than other hair transplant methods like the FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) technique. It is a lot less invasive and gives better hair transplant before and after results because it has better top hair graft success rates.
It involves three stages:
Follicular Unit Extraction Stage: This stage involves detaching hair follicles from the scalp using micromotors.
Sapphire Micro-cut: Here, a sapphire microblade is used to open up the hair canals.
DHI implant system: Grafts are implanted at this stage and the advanced DHI implanter system provides full protection.
Every hair transplant at Cosmedica follows a personal consultation between the patient and the world-famous surgeon, Dr. Levent Acar. The first-class service provided by Cosmedica has ensured that the clinic is recognised as one of the best hair transplant clinics in Turkey.
