Hair transplant in Grand Clinic

A hair transplant at Grand Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, typically runs between $1,700 and $3,000 for standard and VIP packages. The procedure is led by Dr. Mesut Inan, who has over 15 years of experience and has performed 900+ successful operations using advanced Sapphire FUE and DHI methods.

Advanced Transplantation Methods

Grand Clinic provides two primary techniques to restore hair density. The Sapphire FUE method uses blades made from sapphire crystal to create precise channels in the scalp. This technique allows for the transplant of 7,000 to 10,000 grafts in a single session. For patients seeking a more direct approach, the DHI method uses a Choi Implanter Pen to extract and place hair follicles simultaneously. DHI is often preferred for those who want an unshaven procedure and handles up to 3,000 grafts per session.

The Medical Team and Safety

Dr. Mesut Inan is a plastic, reconstructive, and aesthetic surgeon who trained at Sisli Hamidiye Etfal Training and Research Hospital. With over 15 years of surgical practice, Dr. Mesut Inan focuses on creating natural-looking hairlines. The clinic itself is a multidisciplinary hospital with over 30 departments, an intensive care unit, and an emergency department. It holds a 4.5 rating from 20+ patients and is accredited by the Turkish Medical Association.

Recovery and Results

Local anesthesia is used to help patients remain comfortable during the procedure. After the surgery, the transplanted hair usually sheds within the first few weeks. This is a normal part of the process. New hair starts to grow around 3 or 4 months after the transplant. Patients can see the full, final results between 12 and 18 months. Post-operative medications and follow-up controls help manage the healing phase during the stay in Istanbul.
