Hair Transplant Costs in Turkey vs. Other European Countries

The hair transplant costs in Turkey versus other European countries are lower, with advantageous packages available for several different types of procedures and hair transplant techniques, including modern ones. The experts at our hair transplant clinic in Istanbul present a short outline of the hair transplant costs in Turkey, along with the advantages for patients who choose to perform this cosmetic procedure in our country.  

What are the differences in terms of hair transplant costs in Turkey versus other European countries?

While the UK is no longer part of the EU, we can use it as a reference to compare the hair transplant cost in Turkey versus those in other European Countries.

According to the UK National Health Service, a hair transplant in the UK can cost as much as £30,000. Of course, prices vary according to city and clinic, nonetheless, British patients may prefer to schedule a trip to Istanbul or Antalya for this cosmetic procedure.

By comparison, the estimated costs for a hair transplant in Turkey can be the following:

• Can start at £2,000 for 2,000 grafts;
• Starting at around £5,000 for 5,000 grafts;
• At the same time, clinics in London can charge £5,500 per 2,000 grafts or even more.

Some clinics calculate the price per graft, which would mean that this is around £1 in Turkey, compared to around £2 per graft (or more, depending on the chosen clinic) in London.

The hair transplant cost is also lower in Turkey compared to other European countries, such as France. Clinics in Paris can start their price for 2,000 grafts at more than 5,500 euros in the case of follicular unit extraction, or the FUE technique, which is usually preferred by patients.

Compared to France, in Turkey, the estimated costs for 2,000 grafts can be around EUR 2,340.

Patients should know that the hair transplant cost in Turkey depends on many factors, such as the individual’s level of hair loss or baldness, as well as the desired result. Fuller hair will require more hair grafts, which will increase the cost. Even so, the costs remain lower compared to other countries in Europe and around the world.

In our hair transplant clinic in Istanbul, we focus on maintaining affordable costs for transplant procedures, while also making sure that our surgeons and doctors use modern techniques that allow for natural results and quick recovery.

What factors influence the final hair transplant costs in Turkey?

The patient’s condition is the most important factor when calculating the cost of a hair transplant in Turkey. The hair loss level dictates the required number of grafts. In practice, this number is estimated by our doctor, and it usually adds up to around 2,000 or around 5,000, with the exact number varying from one patient to another.

Some other issues that have an impact on the final price are the following:

• The technique:FUE and FUT are the two most popular techniques; however, they have different approaches, with the one required for FUE being more precise;
• The surgeon’s experience: doctors with more experience can charge higher fees. This does not mean that you cannot obtain the same results when working with other surgeons, especially if they are in training and supervised by an expert;
• The clinic: its location and reputation have an impact on the final costs of the hair transplant procedure;
• The overall package: choosing extra services, such as arrangements for accommodation and transport, will increase the final costs.
