Hair Transplant Europe

The team were fantastic throughout the whole process. On the day of the op, I was very nervous but the doctor and her team were really friendly and made me feel at ease instantly. They took great care of me throughout the day and the whole procedure went smoothly.

I decided to go to Ekol after watching a friend's journey on fb. I had fantastic service from my first enquiry to arriving home and after. The service is second to none. I had the gastric sleeve procedure done. It's just been brilliant. I would highly recommend the hospital and its staff to anyone thinking of having it done I can't thank them enough for changing my life.

I had a rhinoplasty done by Dr.Durukan. I had an amazing experience, to say the least! I travelled from Ireland to Izmir and from the moment I arrived at the moment I left I could not have felt more at home. My driver Teoman collected me from the airport when I arrived, he was so friendly and welcoming, he talked me through what was going to happen in the next couple of days and was full of chat. When we arrived at the hotel he checked in for me and made sure everything was all okay, he is such a gentleman. Also, the hotel staff were wonderful and the hotel was nice and clean and modern. Teoman told me to text him if I had any problems at all, he texted me most days to make sure I was okay and to see if I needed anything. He collected me the morning after I arrived in Izmir to bring me to the hospital where he introduced me to my translator Nehir. She was phenomenal throughout the whole experience I don't know what I would have done without her she really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable during my stay and answered any questions I had throughout. There was one night after my surgery when I was in my hotel and I had a question for my surgeon about something and within 5 minutes of texting Nehir she had me on a video call with my surgeon and herself to answer my questions and put me at ease. I was so happy to know that there were people there to support me and answer any of my questions whenever and wherever. Last but not least my surgeon Dr.Durukan was absolutely amazing. I met him at first in my consultation and I knew then that I was ready to put all of my trust in him. We were on the same page about everything that I wanted to be done and he clearly explained to me everything that he was going to do before I went into surgery. After the surgery Dr, Durukan was so supportive he really does go above and beyond with all of his patients, I know from my experience that they are definitely his number one priority. I am so grateful for Dr.Durukan and his team I cannot recommend them enough! I know surgery can be very overwhelming and daunting and choosing the right surgeon is a very difficult decision but you can rest assured that with Dr.Durukan and his team you are in great hands and have 24/4 support. Thank you Dr.Durukan and your team my experience was definitely 10/10. I am over the moon with my result so far it is everything I wanted and more.

So, after extensive research, I chose this clinic to carry out my second hair transplant/ restoration. I chose Antalya as I was there for a vacation, and it was most convenient. My case manager, Asli has been absolutely fantastic. From my initial enquiry to my post care. Asli had been in regular contact with me from day 1. There were no pressure selling tactics and she answered all my queries I had. Her communication skills are excellent, and she will give her honest views. Asli is a great asset to HCT RHC. I contacted several clinics in Antalya. The main reason I chose this one was that it was a Doctor led clinic. They only take one patient a day which results in you having 100% attention. I previously went to a ‘hair mill’ but had a good result however, if a clinic is accepting up to 10 patients a day it is bit of a lottery whether you have a good team working on you on the day. All the top clinics only accept one patient a day which minimises the risk and puts their customers first as opposed to £££. The clinic itself is clean and modern. I started off with my hairline consultation. I made a few amendments to my hairline which the Dr accommodated- there was no ego or arrogance and they were happy to listen to my needs and requests. One thing is to manage your own expectations- you aren’t paying £5 a graft or £10,000 plus for a procedure so you will need to be realistic with your expectations and your end result. The team were extremely passionate and took care of me from start to finish. This was my second hair transplant, so I knew the whole procedure. But this time round, I felt the team took their time. I arrived at 09:00 and didn’t leave until 20:00 so I know the whole day was focussed on me as I was the only patient on the day. I didn’t feel rushed and great care was taken. The team spoke limited English however I was kept updated with every step of the procedure (via Asli). The Dr was extremely experienced too and was able to tell straight away the positives/ negatives about my previous hair transplant. They knew that I had two different technicians previously who worked on my extractions and this showed in my donor area. I really liked the team- they were considerate, polite and helpful. I asked the Dr to use my donor area hairs and also beard hairs which they accommodated. I’m only 2 weeks into my hair transplant. But what I can tell is there is density, the grafts have been implanted/ angled in the correct direction, mostly singles used in the hairline (but some doubles) and the service I have received is excellent. I didn’t have any swelling, the surgery was ‘clean’ and I was impressed in the technique used. There are so many factors to determine whether your hair transplant is a success or not. I spent months and months carrying out my own research, including watching hundreds of YouTube Vlogs which is a great source of information. I wanted to give myself every chance of making sure my HT is a success and to educate myself, so I am well prepared. I would contact as many clinics as possible and ask many questions. I was apprehensive with the limited number of reviews however, Asli would provide me with reassurance and the information of previous work. I am glad I chose this clinic. Have I experienced an excellent service from this clinic? Absolutely! Will I recommend the clinic? Yes, of course! A few tips which helped me in both hair transplants: • Buy the SNUGL travel pillow from Amazon (this is a fantastic travel pillow and will help you when sleeping) • Do not wear lace type trainers/ shoes. Slip on shoes/ plimsolls/ sliders/ work so you can simply slip on your footwear on each day, so you don't have to bend down • Take buttoned shirts for your trip post-surgery. (You don’t want to dislodge any grafts when taking clothes off) • Book a cabin bag for your return flights as the clinic provide you with shampoo over the permitted 100ml allowance which you can no take a hand luggage • Book a window seat for your return flights to ensure no one drops anything from the storage area and saves you from getting up and down (you don’t want to bang your head) • Buy a new sponge. When you wash your hair, apply the shampoo the clinic provides onto the sponge and lather it with some water. You can then squeeze the contents onto your recipient and donor area from a distance when you carry out your first wash. I preferred doing this method as opposed to lathering in your hands as the first one or two washes your grafts are still quite delicate • Use a jug when you wash your hair to avoid the pressure from the hose dislodging your grafts • Drink plenty of water (2-3 Litres plus a day) • Have a good balanced diet with lots of protein (avoid whey protein shakes) Good luck!

Today is day 13 after my FUE hair transplant and the experience with the Surgery group has been exemplary. Results: From day 9 it was near impossible to notice I have had anything done and I was going about my day to day activities. Dr Ahmed and his technicians did a very neat job both around the donor area and the transplanted area. So far the results look incredible and I can’t believe how quick I’ve healed and really how simple it’s been. Service: I have been searching for a clinic and surgeon for 3 years, after a lot of research, I decided to go with the Surgery Group. I loved how Jake and Matthew weren’t pushy and had 99% of answers within an hour of me asking. The experience on the day was as pleasant as can be, the facilities were good and Dr Ahmed really looked after me, he was caring, attentive and genuinely wanted to do the best job he could. The technicians were lovely too, they kept me comfortable and kept asking me how I was feeling. The only thing I would point out is- I was quoted and invoiced for 1,500 grafts but on the day I only needed 1,250 grafts, there is no price difference for having 250 less grafts Aftercare: I left the clinic with everything I needed, medication, saline solutions and a list of what I can and can’t do. Jake checked in with me every morning and kept in touch until I had recovered. Frankly speaking, there isn’t much more I could have asked for, it was a near-perfect experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the surgery group and I would certainly use them again in the future.

My experience with the clinic was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Communication was excellent the staff was extremely kind... The clinic was very hygienic and nice. It's only been 3 months and the first results of the procedure is starting to appear, the outcome looks very good so far and am very glad that I made this decision. I would like to thank the whole team for being with me throughout this whole process and helping me realize this dream that I have had in my mind for a long time. I would definitely recommend.

I went for a consultation expecting a transplant. I was informed of plasma treatment and laser options with supporting treatment. I opted for this based on Tracy's recommendation and haven't looked back. The results have been really impressive, progressively getting better over a 6-month duration. Plasma treatment by Luke was a massive help and Trisha helped me through the laser therapy sessions. I highly recommend HLC at Preston and got excellent support and service from Tracy, Luke and Trishsa.

Urology consultation, Gynecology consultation, Internal Medical consultation. Xrays, ultrasound, CT scan, blood tests examinations, reviews of all investigations and medications prescribed. It was all done over 2 days. I have been through a number of investigations, examinations, blood tests etc. and have seen 3 consultants. I was so pleased with their care, attention and also the respect and kindness they showed me. There was one particular member of your staff who helped me enormously. Her name is Seda and she works as your translator and all the other things she does. I have no idea how I would have managed without Seda's care and attention. My head was spinning as I went from one place to another in the hospital. I would have been extremely stressed if I hadn't had Seda's help and support. She took control and made sure I received everything I needed with such expertise and professionalism. I have heard other foreigners living here speak of her with the same admiration. I hope that the management/bosses read and acknowledge what an asset Seda is to your company and give her the recognition she deserves for the great work she does.

Excellent from beginning to end. I had upper blepharoplasty, and so far feels and looks great even though it is only a week since I had the procedure (local anaesthetic, dissolvable stitches). No need for general anaesthetic. 10/10 for Gunes and Luna; they are a credit to Ephesus. Thoroughly recommend this clinic. You will feel safe in their hands.
