ASMED Hair Transplant Clinic: more details about the clinic

Turkey, Istanbul
ASMED Hair Transplant Clinic is a private surgical center in Istanbul's Ataşehir district. Dr. Koray Erdogan founded the facility in 2005. It focuses exclusively on hair restoration and follicular unit grafting. The clinic serves international patients seeking natural-looking results through specialized surgical protocols.

Specialized Medical Leadership

Founder Dr. Koray Erdogan leads the medical team and surgical planning. He graduated from Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine and trained at Marmara University. Dr. Erdogan has served as President of the World FUE Institute since 2018. He is a member of several international organizations:

  • European Society of Hair Restoration Surgery
  • Italian Society of Hair Restoration
  • International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons

He developed the Sequential or DES technique for graft extraction. This method lets the surgeon feel each follicle's path during harvesting. The medical team also attends international workshops, including hands-on AI training in Athens.

Hair Restoration Procedures

The clinic specializes in FUE hair transplantation through a multi-stage workflow. A pre-surgical meeting takes place one day before surgery. This session reviews patient data and finalizes the surgical plan. On procedure day, an anesthesiologist manages pain control based on individual needs. Surgeons use the Lateral Slit Technique for incisions.

This coronary incision method ensures hair grows at a pre-planned direction and angle. During implantation, the team uses the K.E.E.P. (Koray Erdogan Embedding Placer). This device inserts grafts with minimal tissue trauma. Results span Norwood categories 2 through 6, with documented cases involving over 5,500 grafts.

Advanced Technologies and Quality Control

ASMED uses proprietary AI and diagnostic systems to monitor graft viability. The KE Hair AI-Powered Donor Area Analysis Device and KE-BOT analyze the donor site before extraction. During surgery, the team uses the Mantis Microscope and cross-polarized magnifiers to assess graft quality.

Extracted grafts are stored in Custodiol, a hypothermic storage solution. An electric chilling device keeps the temperature between 0°C and 4°C. This cooling process preserves graft survival until placement. After surgery, patients receive a supervised first hair wash. This protects new grafts and supports scalp recovery.

International Patient Services

ASMED provides full support for patients traveling from abroad. Native-speaking staff help with communication throughout treatment. Online consultations let patients plan procedures from home. Support coordinators are available 24/7 for medical and logistical questions.

International services include:

  • Private car transfers from the airport
  • Accommodation in or near partnered hotels
  • Interpreter services in English, Italian, German, Spanish, French, and Arabic
  • Access to a recreation room with international TV and internet

Patients can also receive massage services during the operation for added comfort. The clinic provides one-on-one follow-up care to monitor hair growth after patients return home.

I rarely leave reviews, but after my experience with ASMED, I genuinely felt they deserved one. After spending months researching hair transplant clinics around the world, comparing techniques, doctors, and countless patient results, I finally decided to choose ASMED. It was a significant investment, but from the moment I arrived, I understood why they have built such a strong reputation over the years. The entire experience was incredibly professional and well organised. From the airport transfer to the hotel arrangements, every step was planned in advance, which made travelling from the UK completely stress-free. Communication before, during and after the procedure has been excellent, and I always received quick responses whenever I had questions. On the day of surgery, the consultation was detailed and honest. Instead of simply trying to maximise the number of grafts, the team carefully analysed my donor area, hair characteristics, facial proportions and long-term hair loss pattern before designing a natural hairline. I really appreciated that they focused on creating something that would still look good years from now rather than chasing an artificially low hairline. The procedure itself was much more comfortable than I expected. The medical team constantly checked whether I was comfortable, explained every stage, and paid incredible attention to detail throughout the two-day procedure. Everyone was calm, friendly and highly experienced, which gave me a lot of confidence. I received over 5,000 grafts, covering my hairline, mid-scalp and crown, and I was impressed by how carefully the grafts were distributed. Seeing the planning and precision involved made me realise how much expertise goes into achieving a natural result. What impressed me the most, however, was the aftercare. Even after leaving the clinic, I continued receiving detailed instructions and support. Every medication, washing procedure and recovery step was explained clearly. During recovery, whenever I had concerns such as swelling around my eyes (which is completely normal after a large procedure), the post-operative team was available to answer questions and provide reassurance. That level of follow-up support made a huge difference, especially when travelling internationally. Although I’m still in the early recovery stage and the final result will naturally take many months, my first impression has been extremely positive. The graft placement looks clean and organised, the donor area was managed carefully, and everything so far has gone exactly as explained before surgery. A hair transplant is not something you choose based on price alone. It’s something you’ll live with every day for the rest of your life. For me, choosing experience, professionalism and long-term planning was far more important than finding the cheapest clinic, and I believe I made the right decision. A sincere thank you to the doctors, technicians, nurses, coordinators and everyone at ASMED for making what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth, reassuring and professional from beginning to end. I look forward to updating this review again once my final results come in over the next 12 months.

I’m very happy with my hair transplant results. Everything was well organized, and the staff were professional and friendly throughout the process. The result looks very natural, especially the hairline and the frontal area. I’m satisfied with the outcome and would definitely recommend this clinic. Thank you to Dr. Erdogan and the whole team!

Outstanding Experience at ASMED Clinic I had a hair transplant at ASMED Clinic in late March 2025, and my experience was nothing short of exceptional. Dr. Koray and Team #5, who performed my procedure, showcased outstanding expertise and professionalism, ensuring I felt confident and at ease throughout. Their meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to excellence were clear at every stage. A special mention goes to Andreea, whose kindness and dedicated support exceeded all expectations. She consistently provided prompt, clear answers to my questions, even weeks after the surgery, offering invaluable reassurance and guidance. For anyone considering a hair transplant, I wholeheartedly recommend ASMED Clinic for their unparalleled medical skill and compassionate patient care. I look forward to sharing further updates on the progress of my transplanted hair in the coming months.

My journey to Asmed Hair Transplant Clinic in Istanbul was fueled by high expectations, following a glowing recommendation from a friend who underwent the procedure two years prior. From the initial contact to the post-operation care, my experience has been nothing short of exceptional, marked by professionalism, attentiveness, and a seamless process. The clinic’s staff, especially my personal assistant Demet, provided outstanding support. Demet was responsive to all my inquiries, ensuring a smooth transition from scheduling to the actual transplant. The logistical arrangements, including airport pickup in a comfortable van and transportation to the clinic, were impeccably managed, contributing to a stress-free experience. Upon arrival, I was impressed by the clinic’s aesthetics — a clean, art-filled entrance and well-designed patient suites and common areas, complete with amenities for relaxation and work. The intimate scale of the clinic, catering to a select number of patients, underscores its prestigious standing in the global arena of hair restoration. Meeting Dr. Koray Erdogan and his team was reassuring. Their confidence, professionalism, and the calm demeanor immediately instilled a sense of trust. The surgery day itself reflected the clinic’s high standards of care, with Dr. Erdogan and his team ensuring my comfort and wellbeing throughout the procedure. The attention to detail and patient care extended beyond the surgery, with thorough post-operative instructions and a check-up to ensure the transplant’s success. The clinic’s night service also deserves a mention for their diligent care, making the recovery as comfortable as possible. My departure was as smooth as my arrival, with the same excellent driver ensuring my safe return to the airport. While the final results of the transplant are yet to be seen, the service, facility, and overall process at Asmed have set a high bar. I am optimistic about the outcome and grateful for the exceptional care provided by the Asmed team, particularly my assistant Demet, whose dedication was invaluable throughout my stay. I leave Asmed not just with a new hairline but with the confidence of having been in the best hands.
