Am a nearly 60 year old American who began experiencing hair loss in my early 20s while living overseas and I mentioned to my wife over the years about regaining my hair. She began researching various options in the USA, Dubai, India, etc but came upon Clinicana in Istanbul, Turkey and conducted some more research and we decided to go to Istanbul on our way home from Africa.
Upon arrival we were greeted at the airport and immediately brought to the hospital for blood work which only took a few minutes then brought to the nearby hotel before going to the hospital the next afternoon.
After 30 years + of baldness I still needed some more convincing so met face-to-face with the doctor who talked me through the good and bad of the procedure and gave me an honest assessment that my bald spot was too large to cover totally. With all the information in hand and seeing how professional everyone acted I decided to go through with the procedure which lasted about 5.5 hours in my case. The next day I came back for a check and had some plasma injected under the skin and was cleaned and fitted with a hat for the day. The final day I was again examined and had my scalp cleaned and shown how to care for the transplant for the coming days, weeks and months to achieve the best results.
Financially the value was certainly better than anywhere we found which included staying at a four star hotel near to the hospital where the staff treated us with equally excellent care. Professionally, all of the staff at Clinicana were honest and warm and we even had our four year old son along who the staff treated as a small prince!
As mentioned above we did a lot of research and found Clinicana the best value for the money.
Very clean, warm and professional especially after dealing with American medical facilities which seem to place money way ahead of the patient!
In our daily practice at the hospital, we meet two types of patients. The first group is ready for transformation and seeks the permanent solution of a hair transplant. The second, and perhaps larger group, asks a critical question: “Doctor, is surgery my only option?” The answer, fortunately, is no. While hair transplantation remains the […]

For decades, patients felt their only choices were invasive surgery or ineffective topical creams. However, the field of regenerative medicine has evolved rapidly, offering powerful biological solutions that harness the body’s own ability to heal. If you are […]
Managing the daily challenges of an autoimmune condition like lupus is demanding, and noticing sudden hair thinning or scarring can add a significant emotional burden.
