“7 days post hair transplant. First of all i decided to go with diamond hair clinic because Dr Mehmet personally ooens your channels which is a surgical procedure, however most clinics in turkey have technician's do this. Without the proper skill this can cause damage to nerves and surrounding areas which will have adverse affects on the transplant. After getting in contact i had to send 5 pictures of my head which they evaluate. After this i sent proof of my plain ticket which in turn i recieved a detailed process of my operation. After landing in istanbul i was met by the driver who proceeded to take me to the hotel. Everything was pre-arranged so chexk in was quick and theh even let me bring a family member free of charge. On the morning of the operation i was picked up by the driver and taken to see Dr Megmet and the team. We had originally agreed for 5000 grafts but this was upped to 5600 after the consultation. Whilst we waited for the blood test results i had my hairline drew and went through expectations. 12 hours later the surgery was completed and the process was pain free and smooth from start to finish. Next day was a free day which i spent resting in the hotel and making use of the room service which is cheap considering. My final day i was picked up and taken for my first wash with Dr Mehmet and given my instructions day to day. I send my pictures personally to Dr Mehmet every day which he responds with how its looking and what to do. Somedays he has chased me as i can be rather forgetful. Overall the process was easy, im only 7 days in but have confidence the final result will be as expected.”

“After careful research of hair transplant clinics I booked my hair transplant with doctor Mehmet Demircioglu as I had only heard good things and the impression I got while emailing and talking on WhatsApp was very good. Now 11 months post I do not regret it! Diamond Hair clinic booked me in at an excellent 5 star hotel and I booked my flights. Before arriving Istanbul I had already been contacted by my driver who took me to the hotel. Everything was very professional and transportation was included the whole stay. On the day of my operation I was picked up and driven to the clinic. Before starting the operation I had a pre-operation consultation where Dr. Demircioglu evaluated my donor area and after that he decided to increase the operation total graft number 500 grafts without charging extra-cost for it. Originally we agreed 5500 grafts but I had 6000 grafts implanted. The consultation was very thorough and Dr. Demircioglu took time to explain the process and answer all my questions. I was the only patient and had the doctor and his team to myself the whole day as promised according to their one-patient a day policy. During the 1 hour consultation Doctor took time to design my new hairline to make it look natural and we discussed how I wanted it to look. Dr. Demircioglu directly made the incisions with a Sapphire blade and his team made extraction and implantation. During operation the doctor controlled everything. After the operation doctor explained the post operation process, medications, and important points. After 1 day I was taken to the clinic again for wash and check up and the doctor gave me his personal number. I have sent photos every week for this year (every day first 10 days) and Dr. Demircioglu has given feedback and instructions and answered all my questions very quickly and helpfully. I can highly recommend Dr. Demircioglu and Diamond Hair clinic. Not only for the excellent and smooth service as mentioned above, but most of all for the result of my new hair. I am now 11 month after operation and the result is way better then I dared dream of and there’s still new hairs coming!”

“I have just completed my Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant with Dr Mehmet Demircioglu and his team at Diamond Hair Clinic. This review will be based on my experience from booking, all the way to 10 days post-operation. I will write another review purely focused on the results of the operation in around 12-18 months from now. This review is very extensive, so if you are short on time, you can simply read the TLDR section and hopefully you will get the sentiment I am trying to convey. Otherwise, I’d recommend reading the full review because I have spent a lot of time & effort to give the most accurate and detailed review possible, which can hopefully be useful to those considering a hair transplant in Istanbul. TLDR // Summary Deciding on Diamond Hair Clinic and Dr Mehmet Demircioglu was the best decision I could have possibly made. Everything was professional and patient-focused, from the first messages exchanged on WhatsApp to 10 days post operation (where I currently am with my recovery). For those considering a hair transplant in Istanbul, I would HIGHLY recommend you to consider Dr Mehmet Demircioglu, his team and his clinic. Yes, the pricing is a bit more than your average in Istanbul, but for a very good reason and ultimately, you get what you pay for. You are paying for: 1. An experienced surgeon to conduct the incisions, which is a highly technically demanding part of the surgery, and for the surgeon to supervise the whole operation. Experienced is probably not sufficient to capture his skill set - world-renowned is more accurate. In fact, Dr Mehmet Demircioglu is a recognised member of the World FUE Institute. You can see the requirements for membership here https://www.worldfueinstitute.com/see-our-fellow-members/. You can read for yourself how difficult it is to be invited as a member. 2. The purest form of patient focus as Dr Mehmet Demircioglu only takes 1 patient a day, and 10 in a month (if I remember correctly). This allows him to invest all his expertise and energy into a single patient at a time to ensure the best experience, and to deal with any and all queries that a patient may have. This in my opinion SHOULD be an industry standard because a hair transplant is as personal as it gets, but unfortunately, it is far from standard. 3. Dr Mehmet Demircioglu is more than a surgeon; he is an artist & perfectionist. He allocates a full 1 hour consultation to draw your hairline and go over the details, many of which are things a regular individual wouldn’t even know existed. For example, Dr Mehmet Demircioglu showed me some asymmetric characteristics on his own personal hairline, which are not noticeable to the naked and unaware eye. He did this to highlight that naturally looking hairlines seldom are perfect, thus introducing minor imperfections is key to attaining a naturally looking hairline. 4. Exceptional care, organisation and pre and post-operation communications. Being a naturally inquisitive and detail-oriented individual, I had so many questions for Dr Mehmet Demircioglu. He has answered each and every single question to my satisfaction, with more detail than required to ensure I have all I need. He has also provided additional resources for things I have asked about. This is only possible thanks to his fluency in English. 5. A stay in a lovely and well-positioned hotel called Ramada, alongside all transport in big Vito cars. Believe me, the Vito cars are not a minor detail. They have been chosen because they are big and avoid head-bumps post operation. Hopefully, that gives you some insight into the level of thinking and planning that goes into ensuring patients have the best experience possible. 6. The price you pay is not subject to the number of grafts to be extracted and implanted. You essentially pay to have Dr Mehmet Demircioglu around for the day, which is a much better alternative because decisions will no longer be based on financial factors only, but rather whatever is best for the patient in the short and long term. The key thing I am trying to convey here is that Dr Mehmet Demircioglu has set a really high standard for hair transplant surgery. I can only recommend him and inform prospective patients about the excellence of his work and service, but ultimately it is down to the prospective patient to choose the surgeon and clinic. I would highly recommend that prospective patients at least compare other clinics and surgeons to Dr Mehmet Demircioglu because if he is not your go-to-surgeon, then he will serve as a great reference point. Full Review Motivation of FUE Hair Transplant The key motivation for me to get a hair transplant was that to me, hair reflects youth, and as a man of 27 years of age, balding early did not sit comfortably with me. My balding had been progressing gradually over the years, but I most likely accelerated my genetic predisposition by mistreating my hair. In my (even) younger days, I would straighten my hair as I disliked the excessively wavy nature of my hair. I’m of the opinion that doing that over the years has damaged my hair beyond repair, resulting in thinning and complete loss of hair in some areas. To put this into concrete timelines, I started straightening my hair around 15 years of age, and stopped around 20 years of age.I am now 27 years of age, and prior to my operation, I would still use a blow dryer daily to straighten my now shorter hair as much as I could. I was estimated a number 4 on the Norwood scale, although my crown is not as thin just yet, but still thinner than desired. Research I started doing research into possible solutions. Finasteride & Minoxidil were mentioned everywhere, but I got the gist that these will not suffice for me. I was looking for corrective mechanisms, not a mechanism which prevents the worsening of my hair loss. There have been studies demonstrating that Finasteride was effective for some in regrowing hair, but I took those studies with a pinch of salt as I wanted more conclusive evidence and more of a guarantee. Once I had decided that the only mode of action that can repair my hair is a hair transplant, I went ahead and started researching clinics. This is arguably the most difficult part of the journey. I spent months researching clinics, processes, reading advice and so forth. The internet is crammed with a lot of conflicting information so verifying every piece of information gained was quite tedious and difficult at times. The general rule of thumb I used for verification is that if 4 or more reputable sources corroborated the information, then it is likely to be valid. The first thing that became immediately obvious to me is that there are different types of clinics around. I’m not an expert in categorisation of these clinics, but I can broadly and informally categorise them into two types: patient-focused and well-oiled money-making machines. I concluded this dichotomy because when I was reaching out for quotes with some clinics, I was receiving unrealistically cheap quotes (around £1500-£2000 for 5000 grafts) almost instantly, which implied to me that the messaging was mostly template based, and that the quote is generic and not personal to me. Additionally, the sales agents were very pushy and persistent in trying to get me to book as soon as possible. Now, I don’t mean to bash the good work that some of these money-making clinics do. Undoubtedly, many have had success with them, especially in terms of results. However, I urge prospective patients to read reviews and watch plenty of videos on the process of these clinics because most are unpleasantly surprised to find out they are being operated on alongside 10-15 other patients. At this point, I had decided that I wanted a world-class surgeon to do my hair transplant with full focus on me as the patient, and not a technician without a medical diploma. Once I started searching for clinics where a surgeon operates on the patient directly, I came across Diamond Hair Clinic. After reading the reviews, I was confident that I should at least attempt to get a quote from Diamond Hair Clinic because they provided the service I was after. A brief note on reviews - the number & quality of reviews available is quite a useful indication into the type of clinic you are dealing with. I’m not naive enough to think that everyone writes reviews post surgery, but you can quickly filter out bad candidate clinics; some have thousands of reviews, and have only existed for 2 years. Those kinds of numbers are awfully suspicious and indicate a vast turnover of patients. Additionally, there are examples of foul play; censoring negative reviews, manipulating public perception and so forth. I can only advise to check everything multiple times over, and attempt to corroborate across sources. Initial Enquiry Getting into contact with Diamond Hair Clinic was really simple. The website has a Contacts page, which redirects you to the platform of choice, which in my case was Whatsapp. I believe Facebook messenger and email were viable alternatives. I went ahead and sent a message detailing my intent and objective. The admin had responded within 5 minutes of my initial message requesting photos, which Dr Mehmet Demircioglu requires for analysis and probing whether I’m a good candidate for the hair transplant. The angles of the photos were clearly described with examples, so all this was really simple to do. Once the photos were sent, I was asked to share my email and asked a few questions about my general health and lifestyle. After that, I was informed that Dr Mehmet Demircioglu will carefully analyse my pictures and come up with a personalised medical report which outlines the planned operation. This medical report also includes the cost details of the operation. This report takes around 3-4 days to produce, highlighting that Dr Mehmet Demircioglu personalises each plan according to the patient. Booking I received my medical report as a PDF via email exactly 3 days after initial contact. The PDF was quite extensive, with many annotations outlining the operation Dr Mehmet Demircioglu has planned to achieve my desired results. There was a lot of information regarding Hair Transplants in general in that PDF, so it takes a little while to get through to digest all the content. I was quoted 4500 euros for 4500 grafts for my operation, which made sense given what I was about to receive in return (see TLDR section). Shortly after the medical report landed in my inbox, the admin had messaged me on Whatsapp to inform me that the medical report is complete and should be in my inbox. Alongside, a plethora of messages were sent via Whatsapp of previous patients. These messages included pictures, videos, links to reviews and other informational pieces. Again, there was a lot of content to digest. It took me around 3 to 4 weeks of continuous further reading to ensure that Diamond Hair clinic really was my best option. Lo and behold, I was very confident in this choice after corroborating a lot of the information that was provided to me. The booking process with Diamond Hair clinic was very simple. All you need to do is book your flights to Turkey, and they will make the remainder of all the reservations. I enquired about potential dates in September and the admin informed me that those dates work. I then booked my flights for September 3rd 2022 to September 6th 2022. My operation was planned for the 4th September 2022, which to my surprise, was a Sunday. Of course, in the UK, Sunday is considered somewhat of a rest day, but things are different in Turkey. Anyway, all the reservations were confirmed by Diamond Hair Clinic the following day, and Dr Mehmet Demircioglu emailed me a PDF letter confirming my hair transplant booking. The booking was completed in April, so I had several months to wait around. I strategically decided on September because I wanted to recover over winter, and from reading around, I knew that summertime is not ideal as you need to shield your head from direct sunlight post operation, and that you should prevent sweating as much as possible. Practically, it was easier to just do it in September. Towards the end of August 2022, the admin shared more details regarding my trip. Namely, I was passed on the contact details of the company/persons who will be sorting my transport during my stay in Turkey. This was a nice little touch because everything was so timely, thus I never felt like I was missing anything prior to the operation and my flight. Flights and day before operation I booked my flights with Turkish Airlines, and was expected to depart from the South terminal in Gatwick around midday. As had been the trend in the preceding few months, I encountered a minor delay with my flight. I was delayed by approximately 1 hour, which was not an issue to me. Upon learning this, I messaged the driver to inform him that I will be delayed. He was very kind and told me not to worry as they’ve got workers who are constantly at the airport. The flight was relatively short, lasting around 3.5 hours, although the initial estimate was 4 hours. There was food served on the flight, and there was plenty of entertainment to keep me occupied, so that journey was actually quite enjoyable. Once I arrived, I immediately noticed how large Istanbul airport is. In fact, it took me approximately 20 minutes to walk through to the passport control and baggage reclaim. The process to get through security and to reclaim baggage was rather smooth. My first struggle was finding my way around the airport so that I could meet my driver. As mentioned, the Istanbul airport is enormous and has many exit gates. I decided to contact my driver and ask for additional directions on where I can meet him, and he promptly directed me to Gate 13, and told me who to speak to so that I can organise my taxi back to the hotel. Within 30 minutes or so, I was in a taxi which was taking me all the way to Ramada hotel. I went to check in and everything was smooth sailing. I was advised to rest well pre-operation, and that is exactly what I did. Room service was ordered and I was asleep by 11pm in Turkey time, because I was informed that my driver will pick me up at 8am the following morning. Operation Day I was so excited that I ended up waking up around 6:30am, which is crazy because back in the UK, it would have been 4:30am. I showered, got changed and headed straight downstairs to have some breakfast. I’d highly recommend eating breakfast before the hair transplant surgery as there is only a single lunch break during the procedure. Diamond Hair clinic book your stay with breakfast included, and it was a delicious breakfast at that. By the time it was 7:45am, the driver was outside and ready to take me to the clinic. The clinic was approximately 20 minutes driving from the Ramada hotel. Upon arrival at the clinic, I was welcomed by the receptionist. I was asked for some identification (please bring your passport with you) and was given a form to sign. The form was essentially a standard medical waiver, quite common across cosmetic surgery in general. There was nothing outrageous and nothing I did not agree with, so I signed and waited until one of Dr Mehmet Demircioglu’s staff escorted me to his office approximately 15 minutes after. I was taken to Dr Mehmet Demircioglu’s office for the initial consultation. The office was very modern, with some incredible artwork stationed behind the doctor himself. Everything looked state of the art to me, so I was feeling quite comfortable with the whole process. Before we even got to start talking about the operation, Dr Mehmet Demircioglu asked me about my well-being and whether I was nervous or not. Naturally, I was a tad nervous - here I am in a foreign country, and the only other English speaking person is the surgeon who was going to be operating on me. He reassured me, and so did his team, and I immediately felt at ease. We got to start talking about many things: 1. General introduction to who I am, and what I do for a living 2. How I ended up here in this clinic 3. Thorough breakdown of the procedure and its stages 4. Reviewing pictures of me from the previous years so that Dr Mehmet Demircioglu has an idea of how the balding has progressed over the years 5. What was previously discussed in my operation plan 6. My expectations for the surgery It is worth mentioning at this point that the conversation was very smooth and fluid. I was thoroughly impressed with the fluency of Dr Mehmet Demircioglu’s English. If you have been to Turkey before, you will know what I am referring to; the general public does not really speak English, so conversing as a tourist can be quite difficult. His team of nurses also do not speak fluent English, but they speak enough to get by. More on the two fantastic nurses/technicians later. Whilst the doctor and I were talking, one of his staff started taking pictures of the whole process. These pictures are taken throughout the whole day. Importantly, they are not mandatory. You have the option to not have pictures taken, but I welcomed it to add a bit of a celebrity feel to the day. The initial operation plan consisted of 4500 grafts. However, upon closer inspection in person, Dr Mehmet Demircioglu suggested 4000 grafts instead because my donor area is poor, and taking more grafts would leave me more bald than necessary on the sides and back, which entirely defeats the purpose of attaining a natural look. It also wasn’t clear whether my donor area had 4500 grafts to donate to begin with. In fact, Dr Mehmet Demircioglu rated my donor area a generous 3 out of 10, which was somewhat of a shock to me. This brings me to a very very important point, so let me digress slightly from the operation day to talk about expectations. As patients, we may have unrealistic expectations. For me, I was hoping to renew my hairline, add density to the mid section, as well as partially cover my crown with around 1000 grafts. What I didn’t understand is the confines under which the doctor can operate, and that is that my donor area is not capable of donating that many grafts. Of course, initially it’s a hard thing to have to accept - you’ve just traveled across the ocean in hope of finally getting your dream hair, you have found an amazing surgeon, but here you are being told that it is physically impossible. However, you will be forever grateful to your surgeon down the line, because they acted with ultimate honesty and integrity. Dr Mehmet Demircioglu could have delivered exactly what I was hoping to have, without considering my donor area post-operation or any other factor for that matter. Instead, he informed me about the challenges, was honest, and offered a solution to somewhat bypass my physical limitation. This is something that you cannot even buy; only a good and caring doctor, who prioritises the patient before all else will behave in this manner, and for that, I am eternally grateful to have picked Dr Mehmet Demircioglu. I suspect many clinics (those I referred to as money-making machines earlier) would have complied with my crown request, just to ensure that they get my money, but it would have been the wrong thing to do, potentially bordering on medical negligence. Back to the operation day … Once the initial consultation in his office was complete, we began the second part of the consultation, which was drawing the hairline. I was taken to the operating room, and was tasked with describing the kind of hairline I would like. I wanted to mostly fill the corners gaps which are missing, without lowering my hairline too much. Dr Mehmet Demircioglu proceeded to draw the hairline using some laser device and sharpies. This process was really interactive and iterative. Dr Mehmet Demircioglu continuously asked for my feedback with every alteration he made to the hairline. I really enjoyed this process because I learnt a lot about hairlines in general, and it was interesting to see his thinking patterns behind making hairlines look natural. It was truly like watching an artist at work. This process concluded after around 40 minutes or so. The next step was to shave my hair, and change into the appropriate hospital clothing. The entire procedure was explained to me multiple times in advance, and in much greater detail during the initial consultation in his office. The procedure consisted of 3 key stages: Extraction of hair grafts (completed by nurses/technicians) Incisions in target areas (completed by Dr Mehmet Demircioglu) Implanting extracted grafts in target areas (completed by nurses/technicians) My previous research made me think that the whole procedure will exceed 10 hours, but in reality, each stage was estimated to take around 2 hours. I’m not sure whether these times are due to individual differences, such as having a smaller than average head, or whether that is the general consensus. Nonetheless, it was a pleasant surprise knowing that I will finish earlier than anticipated. The stage breakdown above highlights that 2 of the 3 stages were completed by the nurses and technicians. This is a little bit misleading because Dr Mehmet Demircioglu is present in the room for the majority of the procedure, helping and guiding the team when necessary. Also, technically speaking, the only surgical aspect of the whole operation is stage 2, thus it is very important that a surgeon completes this stage, rather than a technician. The extraction stage was arguably the least comfortable of the 3. There were a couple of reasons for this. Firstly, the local anesthesia is extremely painful upon application for the first 1 or 2 minutes. The technicians first apply needleless local anesthesia injections, but the intention of this is to actually ease the pain for the needle injection, which contains the complete numbing agent required for the operation to be painless. The technicians did a wonderful job with me, constantly checking whether I was alright and getting it over the line quickly and effectively so that we can continue with the operation. Secondly, you are facing downward on the bed in an uncomfortable position for 2 hours. Your head is getting tossed and turned and pressed against a rather hard cushion surface. My jaw felt like it had gone through a brutal 12 round fight with Mike Tyson. It was a relief to finally be able to stand up after the extraction stage. After the extraction was complete, I was served some lunch. I was asked what I would like to eat during the consultation in the morning, and of course, I decided on a good old Turkish kebab. The kebab was delicious and I was given plenty of time to finish my food, despite the fact that I am a very slow eater. The technicians catered to my every need, from tissues to water, so a big kudos to them for making the lunch so easy and enjoyable. After lunch, we resumed with stage 2. This was mostly seamless. The only uncomfortable/painful part was the local anesthesia injection, but this time into the top of your head. For some odd reason, this was more bearable than the injection into my donor area. However, it was still very uncomfortable for the first 1 or 2 minutes, and then it was painless until the end of the operation. Once the anesthesia kicked in, I just had to lay on the operation bed with my eyes covered (because the light is so bright), and essentially wait until Dr Mehmet Demircioglu had completed all the incisions. We had a brief conversation, and as you can tell from the elaborate length of this review, I am a very talkative individual. I almost felt bad for Dr Mehmet Demircioglu after a few minutes, and decided to stop talking and allow him to focus on the surgery. The final stage was also very seamless and easy. I continued laying in the same position, while the technicians were implanting the extracted grafts. I do remember getting a bit cold at this point, because the operation room has to be cold to maintain the good health of the extracted grafts. The technicians were kind enough to fetch a duvet for me. At this point, I was almost falling asleep so this step was over rather quickly. All in all, the operation was a lot easier than I initially anticipated. I was expecting to walk out that operation room looking like I had just fought a battle in the trenches, but it was far from that. I was bandaged up quite neatly and felt no pain or discomfort after whatsoever. Post-Operation After the operation, we went back into Dr Mehmet Demircioglu’s office and discussed postoperative care. The success of a hair transplant is subject to so many factors, thus distilling this vast knowledge into a simple set of instructions is absolutely crucial in ensuring a patient can follow the instructions and optimise the chance of success. Dr Mehmet Demircioglu did exactly that - broke down all the steps into simple to follow instructions. He was kind enough to write it all down for me, especially the instructions regarding the postoperative medications. He also provided me with his personal number, and welcomed me to message him with any questions or concerns I have. After the operation in Diamond Hair clinic, you will be given a Greft Plus care package which should last approximately 6 months, alongside a bunch of medications to take for the following 10 days. The Greft Plus care package is rather large, so ensure that you have checked-in luggage large enough to carry it. The medications are crucial in ensuring that you do not contract any infections, while also alleviating some of the postoperative side-effects such as swelling. Keeping your head upright at all times really helps with the swelling. I had minimal swelling due to following all the instructions, and taking the prescribed steroids. A quick note on the steroids - they taste disgustingly bitter. My suggestion is to wash them down with juice, rather than water. I could still taste the steroid even after swallowing it, so juice was absolutely necessary for me to hold down that little steroid pill. With all my stuff in hand (not literally, as the technicians carried all the stuff for me), I was transported back to the Ramada hotel. This was not the end of the journey though, as I was expected to come back in a day for the first wash. The first night was really challenging. I felt handicapped and so limited in every movement I used to be able to make freely. Sleeping upright using a neck pillow, with some bandages covering the entirety of your head is as uncomfortable as one can be. Couple that with constant leaking of plasma and you have yourself a nightmare pending. However, the hotel staff were exceptional and helped me with anything I really needed help with. From adequately covering my pillows with towels to ensure I do not ruin their bedding with my leaks, to delivering food to my room. They were all so happy to help. That night, I managed to get 5 to 6 hours of sleep in total, which is quite good compared to what I had read/seen from other people. I found that the best trick is to sleep in sets of 2 hours, because long continuous sleep is hard to get when sleeping upright. The following day (Monday) was just a rest day. I kept my mind busy by doing some programming, and ensured that I was eating healthy enough to be able to take the medications and stomach them comfortably. I did not leave the hotel room because I was advised not to. Showering was a bit awkward, but I definitely learnt how to be more efficient with water usage since the operation. On Tuesday, I went back to the Diamond Hair clinic for my first wash. The wash process was super simple, and I was taught how to wash my hair for the following 9 days. You simply apply the foam to your transplanted regions, and wait 30 minutes before rinsing off with cold/luke-warm low-pressure water.You repeat this twice a day. I was given 3 foam bottles, which should be more than enough to cover the 10 days. There was nothing uncomfortable about this washing procedure. However, the removal of the bandages stings initially, but that discomfort fades fairly quickly. While we were waiting for the foam to settle, we discussed and reiterated postoperative protocols to ensure I have everything I need to go back home confident in being able to look after my newly implanted hairs. After the wash was complete, I was transported back to Istanbul airport to catch my flight home. For the last 9 days (since I have arrived back in the UK), I have been following all the instructions that Dr Mehmet Demircioglu provided me with, alongside sending daily pictures to him for continued analyses of the healing process. It was quite easy to make a routine out of this, and I have really enjoyed our extensive conversations about other treatments, such as PRP, finasteride and so on. The continued communication is something that you should not take for granted. It has been amazing to be able to quickly get answers for questions or concerns I have, even though there is a two hour time difference. One other thing worth mentioning is that I am thankful for Dr Mehmet Demircioglu’s continued encouragement in improving my lifestyle as a whole. Prior to my hair transplant, I would regularly vape. I have since discontinued all use of vapes, and drastically improved my lifestyle in many aspects, such as diet, use of hot water, sleep, and more. This is all due to Dr Mehmet Demircioglu convincing rationale, and making me realise that part of the reason why I had to take a trip to his clinic to begin with is due to these lifestyle choices I had made. I cannot thank him enough for helping me finally overcome my nicotine addiction. This concludes my review about my experience with Dr Mehmet Demircioglu and Diamond Hair clinic. My next review will focus purely on the results of the transplant after 12-18 months. My plan is to document the monthly progress to help prospective patients manage their expectations. I hope you find this review useful. I have added images of the top of my head pre and post operation. This was to show that my review is authentic, and based on an actual operation. I chose the top of my head to preserve my anonymity. However, I do appreciate that there may be follow up questions. I have created an email account, where I am more than happy to answer any questions. The email is docscraper@gmail.com.”

Diamond Hair Clinic & Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu - Hair Transplant Turkey Reviews 2024 5 star review on 15th September 2022

Helpful Report

“(This review is from a spouse and a mother who has been looking for fue hair transplant clinics in Istanbul for her husband and her son). After several research I booked a clinic in Istanbul for them. Cheap price 2500 Euros per person all inclusive (hotel and transport) which was too good to be true. However, all three of us booked the flight. The night before departure I felt uneasy and started reading the reviews and found out that the clinic does more than 10 patients at a time with no doctor involvement. I immediately cancelled all the appointment with that clinic. That night I searched and found out Diamond hair clinic and Dr. Mehmet who does one patient at a time and actually is present there ,supervises as well and does the incision himself and not only those , he performs the procedure in a hospital. I was overjoyed and sent a message to the clinic. Within an hour I received the message from Mahmoud ( who I can never thank enough ), he sent all my husband and my son's information to Dr. Mehmet ,who analyzed and sent it to me via email and whatsup. Every information was well organized and self explanatory. Nothing was ambiguous. Cost was very reasonable because Dr. Mehmet was going to be there and performing the surgery . The best thing anyone can ever wish for. Since we already booked the tickets for Istanbul, it did not go to a waste. Dr. Mehmet accommodated us same week. Mahmoud organized the hotel and transport for us. Initial consultation was very informative, included clear expectations, explanation of the actual procedure, and cost. Pre-op information was clear and concise and provided before the scheduled procedure date. My husband's transplant was first. When he was picked up I felt uneasy .Mahmoud gave me Dr. Mehmet's direct phone number. After few hours I sent Dr. Mehmet a message asking how my husband was doing. In few minutes Dr. Mehmet himself made a video call. I spoke to both the Doctor and my husband. That video call from the doctor put me to an ease, gave me more confidence and faith . This was my husband's words "dont worry , we are in safe hands. Everyone is very nice and caring" .That was enough for me to decide that how great Dr. Mehmet is . I recommend him to everyone who is wishing or are looking for a hair transplant clinic. Dr. Mehmet is godsend for all those who needs a hair transplant in Istanbul. Diamond Hair Clinic is the best . Plus a salute to the transportation team , Emir for been punctual and communicating everything regarding trasportation timing or change in car or driver. The hotel Mahmoud arranged for us was the best including lication , the caring staff plus room service after the surgery. 👍🙏 My husband and my son will review in few days.”

“Hello, I recently had a hair transplant done in Turkey this past week. Going down to Turkey from America definitely can be a bit overwhelming when you think about it at first. The cost of flight tickets and mainly time to go down there and get the procedure done is something you should plan and calculate. It worked out a bit easier for me because I decided that on my way back from my vacation in Asia I could make a stop in Turkey and get the procedure done. I did a lot of research before hand to understand the different types of procedures (FUT, FUE, Sapphire FUE etc.), and I think anyone thinking about getting a hair transplant procedure done should also do the same. After speaking to a few different clinics and exchanging pictures and messages through WhatsApp (common way of contacting these clinics) I decided to go with the Diamond Hair Clinic, and have my procedure done by Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu. Now you'll find that there are actually hundreds of hair clinics in Turkey alone and reaching out to all of them is probably not possible. After doing my research I found the Sapphire FUE to be the treatment I wanted to go with. This is due to the blade being made of an actual Diamond which creates smaller incisions and helps with recovery. According to my research Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu seemed like the best option for this treatment for me. Below are some reasons that he really stood out from other doctors: • He only does one operation a day (this is something not many clinics do, there are an estimated 5000 hair procedures done in Turkey on a daily basis). You'll see that many clinics will do multiple procedures a day and the chances of the actual doctor doing the procedure may be slim. Many times the person doing the actual procedure may not even be a certified doctor or they may have their staff members do the procedure instead of them. • His assistant Mahmud, who is the point of contact when you reach out to Diamond Hair Clinic is extremely responsive and answers any questions or concerns you may have. I also want to point out that their calendar at times may be packed so reserving a procedure at least a few months in advance is recommended. Diamond Hair Clinic also did not make me pay any money upfront but instead let me know my procedure is only booked when I send my travel itinerary to them. I faced some delays in getting my tickets and even told Mahmud I didnt mind paying a deposit to book my place, but he was still kind enough to reserve a spot for me on good faith. I really appreciated the kind gesture from him to trust me, because again they only do one operation a day so not having a patient basically means they lost out on all their profit for the day. • After sending over my pictures I received a great detailed response of how many estimated grafts I would need as well as the cost for the operation and where my donor areas may be. • Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu also sits down with you before your operation again to go over the whole plan and answer any questions or concerns you have. This was honestly very helpful because he puts you at ease before the procedure. • Diamond hair clinic also puts you in a 5 star hotel in a great part of Istanbul where it's pretty poppin! They work with their partners and also get you a very nice Mercedes pickup by Emir. Who coordinates with you regarding your arrival, your procedure pickup and drop off time, and also drops you off at the airport the day you are flying out. One thing to mention about Emir is he is a very down to earth dude, he is happy to take you around Istanbul show you places etc if you coordinate with him (this is not included in the package) and knows his way around Turkey pretty well. If you do go with Diamond clinic and are interested in going around town to explore and also eat some amazing food in Istanbul Emir is definitely a great contact to point you in the right direction. Now on to the actual procedure: • I was estimated to receive 5500 grafts from the back of my head, beard and chest area. Once the operation began the Diamond Hair clinic actually took 6300 out 800 more than the estimate for no additional cost. Again, I was very very grateful to Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu, and his team members that help take out the grafts during the procedure they were all very kind and caring individuals throughout the procedure. • Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu made all the incisions himself with the Sapphire blade and this is something again not a lot of doctors do from my research about other clinics. • During my pre-operation consultation Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu drew me a hair line first with a pencil to show me if I liked it and explained why it was a bit curvy to give it a natural look. Once you approve of it he traces it with permanent ink for the procedure. • The actual procedure isn't really painful other than the local anesthesia shots. Once you get over that you are in the clear. His staff members also work very closely with you to ensure you aren't feeling pain or are uncomfortable throughout the procedure. • Due to my procedure having so many grafts (6000+) it took over 10 hours for the whole procedure. You also receive a lunch break in between to rest and eat. • Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu oversees the whole procedure himself even when his team members are taking the grafts from the donor area which is probably one of the most time consuming parts of the procedure. • Once the procedure is complete they provide you transportation back to the hotel to rest. I like a dummy right after my procedure banged my head in the vehicle by not paying attention to the roof of the Mercedes after being warned to duck slightly, due to this a few grafts went out of place and Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu team actually took me back to the hospital to fix it right away. Again, I just want to point out his team was already there for a very long time and could have easily went home after their job was done, but they truly do care about the quality of their work and spent another 20 minutes repairing the slight damage my idiotic self did. I was extremely thankful about the help and service. • The next day after your operation is your rest day and you are free to do whatever you want as long as you aren't doing anything to harm your grafts. • After that the next day is your first wash day. Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu washes your hair for you the first time to show you how you have to do it for the next 10 days. • He will also DEMAND pictures everyday from you and incase your forget he's got good memory and will reach out himself. • I forgot to add Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu gives you his personal number after the procedure for any questions or concerns you have so you can directly contact him, and trust me I've already bombarded him with questions and he replies quickly without any issues. • During my wash Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu also showed me a kit that he recommends for his customers which is a separate cost that includes more shampoos, vitamins, and a spray that helps with speedy recovery to the donor area. • This kit is actually given to you at 50% off normal retail value (I looked it up) again, this isn't needed but he recommends it so why not grab it. He will still supply you with the shampoos you need for the initial starting period for free with the procedure but this is more for later on when all that runs out. Overall: • Overall my experience was amazing. I am writing this review 3 days after my procedure so I don't have pictures or my growth yet. I am very hopeful that it will be good, but I was extremely satisfied with the whole process with Diamond Hair Clinic. • Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu also will take many pictures of you before and after the procedure and expects you to send him pictures every day for the first 10 days then weekly. He also let me know he would reach out incase I ever forgot. • I know this review may have been a long read but I felt it was important to stress how much Diamond Hair Clinic actually did for me as a customer. I would definitely recommend this clinic to anyone thinking about getting the procedure done. They have a great friendly staff which really makes you comfortable.”

“I have just arrived home after a transplant through Diamond Hair Clinic, Dr Mehemt Demircioglu and his team. As many of these reviews state and as you'll know if you're considering it yourself; travelling to a foreign country for a medical procedure, especially for the very first time can be rather un-nerving. For that exact reason, I was looking for a company that instilled absolute faith and confidence in me from the moment I made contact with them. After a few attempted contacts with other Turkish companies, not instilling the faith required, I came across Diamond Hair Clinic. From the moment I began conversation with Mahmud, I felt confident that they were the company I were going to choose. Mahmud was always available, responded quickly, in clear English and was always on hand to answer any questions or queries throughout the consultation and booking process. He was always efficient in sending correspondence via whatsapp and email, without me needing to chase or follow up on any occasion. This level of service continued throughout the whole process. The transfers from Airport to Hotel and Hotel to Hospital were always on time, polite and efficient, with drivers even taking me to the consultation room to meet Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu when arriving at hospital. The Elite World Hotel were extremely accommodating and in a great location if you wish to see the sites of Istanbul, which I must also add is a great city which I will most definitely be travelling back to!! From the moment you meet Dr Mehmet Demircioglu, you become even more at ease about the whole process than you already were. His courtesy, charisma, knowledge and professionalism are a testament to Diamond Hair Clinic. My procedure consisted of 5,000 grafts via Sapphire Fur Technique. Originally I had been told 4500 would be extracted however on further in person analysis he felt 5,000 would be suitable for transplant. I was charged NO extra money for this. The process can be slightly painful at times, however this is entirely to be expected with the amount of incisions and anaesthetic provided throughout the day. The only slight pain was mainly whilst anaesthetic was being administered and if you'd had a long day like me, due to it waring off slightly towards the end. (As soon as i mentioned this, Doctor Mehmet Demircioglu administered slightly more so as to numb any painful area) and we continued smoothly to complete the process. As always and on completion, Dr Mehmet Demircioglu was there with his assuring, confident smile and outreached hand to congratulate us on his teams' masterpiece!! I must stress, I am currently only three days after my operation, however everything is healing well and I have been asked to send update photos daily until the tenth day and weekly for twelve months so as Dr Mehmet Demircioglu can review the healing process. I am in direct contact with Dr Mehmet Demircioglu via phone and whatsapp, which also adds even more peace of mind that he is on hand to answer any questions or queries I have during this period. I have absolutely no doubt based on my experience so far that over the coming weeks and months I will see and experience the fruits of Dr Mehmet Demircioglu and his teams craftsmanship. I am delighted with choosing Diamond Hair Clinic for my procedure and would highly recommend anyone considering a hair transplant operation in Turkey to look no further than the above company and team. Massive thanks again to Mahmud, Dr Mehmet Demircioglu and his team for making the process and absolute pleasure from start to finish. I have absolutely no doubt that many more people like me will be extremely pleased with the professionalism and service offered from Diamond Hair Clinic. Highly Recommend!! ✨💯✨✅✨👌✨”

“Procedure: I had 5000 grafts ( form the head donor area and which is a lot. It is almost unheard of to have that many done in one sitting. It went very well for the most part but it was a very long operation (Hence 5000grafts). I was in the hospital for almost 10 hours so the anesthesia kept waring off towards the end. I was actually surprised how painless the whole operation was. With that being said, you could never be prepared enough for the anesthesia shots (it was a bit unpleasant) and I have no issues with needles. Post-operation: 2 days after the operation I had my first wash. Dr. Demircioglu gave me the instruction on how to wash my head for the first 10 days (first 10 washes) and the process of removing the scabs. He was in touch with me every single day since I got back home (London,UK)to make sure that there are were no issues or any post-operation complications. The reasons I chose Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu and the Diamond Hair clinic in Istanbul: 1. The Dr. Demircioglu will open the microchannels (most import part of the operation) himself. Most of the clinics I have researched rely on technicians to do this part (Some doctors will charge 1000 euros to have them do it). 2. Dr. Demircioglu only sees one patient a day. All of his attention is focused on one patient. Unlike other clinics (what I call factories) where they have 5-10 patients serviced at the same time. 3. Dr. Demircioglu uses the Sapphire FUE technique which allows for denser results and shorter healing time. 4. When I was dealing with the assistant Mahmud, I told him that other clinics were cheaper but he didn’t try lower his price or give me a discount. (I felt that they are confident with their service and the price is fair) Additional things to know: Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu speaks English fluently. You can communicate with him directly and you don’t have to rely on a translator. This is very important. This was a big procedure for me and I know it is going to be a long process. I am glad I was able to voice my concerns and ask questions to Dr. Demircioglu directly whether it was during the consultation, during the long operation, or post-operation Dr. Demircioglu reached out to me every day in the first 10 days after the operation to check on me and make sure there are no infections or complications. He gave his direct phone number so I can contact him at any time for any questions and concerns. (He is not just going to take your money and forget all about you). Finally: Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu is a kind and honest man who is very proud of what he does. He cares more about providing a great service with excellent results than anything else. I consider myself lucky for making the right choice and going with Dr. Demircioglu and the Diamond Hair Clinic.”

“I spoke to several transplant clinics in Canada and then Turkey. Dr Demircioglu and support professionals were responsive, informative and clearly took the time to review my pictures. Other clinics were cheaper, more aggressive to obtain my business and promised a greater graft count. Dr Demircioglu stuck to his price and assessment due to a poor donor area. Being a health care professional I know the cheapest price is not usually the best value. The quality of care, precision of surgery and seamless logistical support were second to none. I am 5 days post op and can not give you a final result on the success of surgery but it looks great so far.”

“Dr Mehmet and his team were fantastic for someone who was nervous to travel from Sydney to Istanbul for a complex procedure. It starts with great communication and honest advice. When you arrive everything is taken care for you. Meeting Dr Mehmet and his team you feel very comfortable as his english is good and the clinic looks amazing. The procedure is not simple and I'm really glad that throughout the 9 hour procedure i had a doctor who could help me and walk me through it. Afterwards is where im glad i choose this place, he continually talks to me through whatsapp. He has given me meds and vitamins that were included in the price. Overall, if your gonna choose a hair clinic, don't be silly and choose a doctor for this surgery. And if your looking for doctors you've come across a fantastic doctor with Dr Mehmet.”

“5000 grafts for hairline+crown, $4500 Euros Selection process: I spent a few weeks messaging different hair clinics to learn more about hair transplants and whether I actually wanted to do one. Upon further research, I established criteria of choosing a clinic where the surgeon is involved in the procedure and they see only a few patients overall. Diamond Hair Clinic (DHC) met both these criteria and you can get a sense of how clinics operate from your conversations over WhatsApp. Some clinics were very quick to provide me with a quote without really taking in much personal information, whereas I found my interactions with DHC more professional and thorough. I also felt like there was less of language barrier dealing with DHC than other clinics. I felt more confident in going with them for all these reasons. Pickup + Booking All of this was handled by DHC and they made the process very simple for me. I was pleasantly surprised to be picked up by a nice limo at the airport and all my transportation was taken care of. Surgery I felt very comfortable with Dr. Mehmet and we spent a lot of time discussing my goals while designing the hairline. The surgery was long and painful (as expected) but not unreasonably painful...I mean surgery isn't supposed to be fun. I felt like I was in good hands the whole time. Dr Mehmet is fluent in English and this helped my comfort levels, and he is patient with answering questions. Post-surgery I would actually argue that the post-surgery experience is the most nerve-wracking of all. The first 3 days you need to sleep upright and protect your head with your life. The anxiety gets slightly better by the day as your grafts become more secure but the whole first 10 days is tough. I would send pictures daily to Dr. Mehmet and he would give his feedback. He is very responsive, thorough, and patient with his responses. This helped calm my nerves significantly through this period. Getting rid of your scabs is a big day and you feel a lot more free because the grafts are firmly secured at this point. I am 6.5 months out from the surgery and very happy with results so far.”

“I had my hair transplant procedure at Dimond hair clinic in October 2022. It’s been nothing but a great experience. I had been researching about hair transplants for a couple months and almost gave up on it. Living in the United States you hear about hair transplants but don’t think about getting them because it’s so expensive here. One day I stumbled upon Diamond Hair clinics website. I looked at the reviews and the credentials of Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu and was immediately sold. I contacted the clinic via what’s app and sent over my photos right away. Once I was told all the necessary information, we discussed the date and I booked my plane ticket. Upon arriving into turkey I was messaged by the driver about the details of my pickup. It was a seamless experience from landing in Istanbul airport to meeting the driver and getting dropped off at my hotel. On the day of the operation I was picked up from the hotel in the morning exactly on time and driven to the clinic. Once I arrived at the clinic I was met with a big smile and a very warm welcome from Dr. Demircioglu. We had an hour consultation about my donor area and what was to be expected. Dr. Demircioglu explained to me that my donor area was weak and that I would only be able to get 5500 grafts. He gave me the option to still continue with the procedure or not to do it at all. I appreciated his honesty and felt that I was in good hands, so I continued with the procedure. I sat with Dr Demircioglu and his team for another 30 minutes or so discussing my new hairline. He was very understanding about my needs and how I wanted my hairline to look. Dr. Demircioglu explained the whole process to me. He made the incisions with a Sapphire blade and his team made the extraction and implantation. For me personally, the only part that I felt was when they inserted the needles to numb my scalp. I didn’t feel anything else after that and was completely fine. The procedure took a total of about 9 hours with a lunch break in between. After the operation the doctor explained the post operation instructions and gave me his direct number to contact him if I had any questions or concerns. The next day was my rest day and the following day I went back to the clinic to get my bandages removed and my hair washed. Dr. Demircioglu made me feel so comfortable with everything and answered all of my questions before I left to go back home to the States. I very highly recommend Diamond hair clinic with Dr. Demircioglu and his team. They were all so professional and easy to talk with. I am still in contact with him and sending monthly updates about my progress. I am very pleased with my results and can’t wait to see my hair after the full 18 months. Thank you again Dr. Demircioglu!!”

“Originally I settled for a different hair clinic of whom I paid £500 deposit for, after more careful valuation I decided not to use this company as I found a lot of bad reviews and certainly put me off. I opted for Diamond hair clinic as they seemed more professional with information and their 1 patient rule! I Left Edinburgh on the 6th of august to Istanbul, operation was on the 7th. From the airport taxi to the hotel and hotel to hospital was very good no problems at all. And same taxi to airport was on time and efficient. the hotel was really nice, clean and the food was nice too. Day of the op, left the hotel at 7:30am got to the hospital around 8. Waited in reception around 20 mins and the nurse came and got me and I met Dr Mehmet Demircioglu in his office and was very friendly who explained everting clearly and made me feel at ease. The nurse took blood and left a cannula in place was pain relief later. The reason for them to take blood is to check for diseases like hepatitis, hiv etc Dr Mehmet then came to the theatre to draw on my new hairline, took around 45 mins to make sure it was what I wanted. Next stage was numbing of the back of my head (donor area) and extract hair. This was quite a painful part of the procedure the numbing was uncomfortable at times but didn’t last too long before feeling nothing. This took around 3 hours. Had a pizza for lunch then back to the theatre, this stage was numbing of the recipient area (receded area) then Dr Mehmet done the FUE cut along my scalp and the insertions for the grafts to be implanted. This was done within 3.5 hours. Left the hospital after Dr Mehmet explained the rules to follow around 6:30pm back to the hotel with pain relief and a large kit of shampoos etc which was all included in the price. I paid 4500€, a bit more expensive but this is a life changing decision and best to pay more for a professional than the many amateurs around Turkey. I would have no problems recommending friends and family about Dr Mehmet at Diamond Hair Clinic, but do plenty research before you decide but I can’t thank the Dr enough this far, I see progress happening can’t wait to see it in a few months.”

“My name is Brian, I’m a 50 year old Senior Project Manager who lives in the NE of England. I’ve been bald for a number of years and decided in 2021 to take the leap and get a hair transplant. Started my research online and spent a long time reading reviews and feedback. I chose the Diamond hair clinic on the basis of very good reviews and the fact that Dr Mehmet Demircioglu only carries out one procedure per day. After a number of communications along with a detailed personnel hair procedure plan / assessment, I decided to take the plunge and booked my flights. The process was pretty slick, I was collected from Istanbul airport in a executive large taxi and was taken to a very good hotel in Istanbul. Generally the communications were two way using WhatsApp which worked very well. The driver spoke English and was very helpful. The following day I was picked up promptly at my hotel and taken to the clinic. Dr Mehmet greeted me and we spent a good hour discussing the procedure and drawing my new hairline. Nothing that I asked for was too much and I never felt rushed or pressured. Mr Mehmet spoke very good English and was overall excellent to deal with (real top man)! It was a long day and the procedure was uncomfortable at times. However I was really looked after during the procedure and again when returning a couple of days later for my final assessment. The experience and procedure was well worth it. Based on my overall experience, I can’t recommend Dr Mehmet and the Diamond clinic enough. Overall the service was FIRST CLASS and the team were absolutely excellent. I’ve read some horror stories, hence I would strongly recommend doing your research and defiantly don’t pick the cheapest. I’ve attached a couple of pictures showing my hair before and after (six months). My hair growth / volume will continue to increase for another circa 12 months, but my results are very good at this stage. Hope this helps and good luck….”

“I spent several years gradually researching and learning more about hair transplants and landed on Turkey as destination to undergo the procedure. I reviewed around ten clinics and got into conversations with 3. None were thorough, asking for photos and replying immediately with low costs from $1500-3000. Upon deeper review of these clinics I found many reviews which ranged from good (many looked fake) to some stating that these lower cost surgeons had made massive mistakes with the patient’s hair—patchy growth, awkward hairlines, no growth at all. Many of these clinics only asked for reviews immediately after the surgery, at which point it would not be possible to determine the effectiveness of the procedure. Diamond Hair Clinic was thorough in their review of my headshots, I felt they answered my questions earnestly and had strong long term reviews. Receiving images of former patients with month by month follow up and visible progress was also enticing. I decided to move forward with Diamond Clinic. My hotel and car was handled upon my arrival in Istanbul, which I was more grateful for after spending a few weeks in the city and realizing how difficult getting a reliable ride and hotel can be. Upon the day of the procedure Dr Mehmet Demircioğlu and his team walked me through everything, answered my questions and despite my squeamish nature around needles, blood and medical procedures generally, handled me with care and attentiveness. We also had a levelled conversation about my hairline and results I could expect based on my donor density area. While the beginning was physically painful, the more anaesthtic administered throughout the procedure helped me feel painless and eventually I felt nothing and was drifting in and out of consciousness until the completion of the procedure. Upon completion Dr Mehmet Demircioğlu gave me a kit which contained a series of medications that would help me recover and avoid getting an infection. I stayed in the hotel the following day, ordering room service to avoid going outside. After that I returned to the clinic to take of the bandages from my head and learn how to wash my head. Again Dr Mehmet Demircioğlu was thorough, professional and attentive in giving me instructions in how to handle myself post-operation in terms of what to avoid (submerging my head in water, direct sunlight etc) and how to wash my head/vitamins to take to assist with growth. I am roughly 25 days post the procedure and have recovered well but am yet to see growth, this, as I understand however, is normal. The experience was smooth, I could not have asked for more. I will post again when I start to see results.”

“For almost the last five years, my hairline has been a source of frustration and lack of self-assurance for me. Until the day came when my hair began to thin out, I used to be full of life. I'm delighted to say that I've found a solution that works for my receding hairline. I'd been researching hair transplant clinics for months before choosing one. I read hundreds of hair transplant testimonials and browsed hair transplant forums, Reddit, for information about the top clinics and surgeons. Diamond Hair Clinic's wealth of knowledge and honesty convinced me that they could deliver on all of my expectations. Mahmod, Dr. Mehmet's assistant, was extremely helpful in discussing all of my worries. Before Diamond Hair Clinic, I had several consultations with hair clinics in Turkey and the United Kingdom. Most of them merely glanced at my few pictures and informed me how many grafts I needed before moving on to the financial aspect. It wasn't very encouraging. I am now ten months post-op and can't be happier with the outcomes thus far. My hair seems excellent, like it's been in the past, and I'm glad I selected Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu as a hair surgeon. It is well worth the money invested. Everything went off without a hitch, and the trip was well-planned. The medical facility, surgery, team, transport, Dr. Mehmet, and hotel were brilliant.

“I had my hair transplantation procedure at Diamond Hair Clinic in November 2021. I chose the Sapphire Fue method, and so far I'm extremely happy because of that. The entire experience was excellent, from my initial Whatsapp message to my return home. The clinic's attitude was different from the other Turkish clinics I contacted; communication was prompt and informative, and all my questions were answered satisfactorily. Everything was explained clearly in the confirmation email I received from the clinic after booking my flight. From arrival to departure, everything went smoothly and according to plan. The surgery went smoothly thanks to careful preparation and teamwork. Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu made the incisions were precise, the team made extraction and implantation, all went smoothly. I was very pleased with the consultation I had with Dr. Demircioglu before the surgery. He explained the stages of the surgery to me, and we discussed my hairline. I think that this consultation was very helpful in putting me at ease before the surgery. The surgical team did an excellent job, and the operation took almost 9.5 hours. I used AirPods to listen to things that helped pass the time pleasantly. Although it's still early to judge the outcome, I am starting to see some progress after having my hair transplant procedure done 2.5 months ago. From what I can tell so far, it seems like only a waiting game at this point. I would have paid a little fortune to get done this procedure in the U.S. The price I paid for the Diamond Hair Clinic full package was somewhat pricey compared to other clinics in Turkey, but based on my experience with Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu and his team thus far, it was worth every penny.

“I started looking for a clinic to perform a hair transplant in September 2020. During my research, I contacted many different clinics. After a couple of weeks of searching on the internet, I found Diamond Hair Clinic in a list of the top best clinics in Turkey. I contacted the administrator and he asked me to provide him with photos of my hair situation. After Doctor Mehmet reviewed my case, he sent to me a very detailed report containing the number of grafts I would need, their price, more information about the clinic, and other relevant information that I would need. The administrator was very professional and patient with all of my questions. After accepting their terms, I booked my flight which permitted them to schedule my operation. I stayed in contact with the administrator up until the day of the operation. One day before the date of my operation I arrived to the Istanbul Airport where I met their driver who was very courteous and professional. The trip took around 45 minutes and was quite comfortable on the way to the 5 star hotel that they recommended. I spent 3 nights at the hotel and on the day of the operation, the driver picked me up at 7am and drove me to the clinic where I met Doctor Mehmet along with his team. While waiting for my blood test results Doctor Mehmet and I were discussing all aspects of the operation. After we got the results of the blood test Doctor Mehmet started drawing my hairline. He told me that we can draw and re-draw the hairline as many times as I want until I am satisfied with the results. After I validated the hairline the Doctor and his team started the operation which was easier than I expected. The team was very kind and made me comfortable and they allowed me to pause the operation at any time. I had two main breaks, lunch and a dinner break and the delicious meals were provided by the clinic. When the operation finished, Doctor Mehmet gave some advice to me as well as some products that he told me to use days and months after the operation. The day following the operation the driver picked me up at the hotel in order to have a COVID-19 test performed. After the test I rested the remaining part of the day. On the morning of my last day the driver picked me at the hotel and drove me to the clinic where Doctor Mehmet washed my head for the first time after the operation. After I was done at the clinic, the driver took me to the Airport to get my COVID-19 results which allowed me to fly back to France. Since the operation and up until now, I am in contact with Doctor Mehmet personally so he can watch the evolution of my hair situation. So far my experience with Diamond Hair Clinic has been really outstanding and I appreciate every aspect of my relationship with them.”

“Before i start let me share with you all ,this was my second hair transplant .even it was my second time in Turkey it wasn't easy to find the best clinic with the best results. I am very pleased with my decision of doing my second hair transplant with Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu of Diamond hair clinic. To start ,with i was planning to have my second hair transplant since beginning of this year as i noticed i lost a lot of hair from my crown area (almost bald). So i started my research ,even though i had my first hair transplant done in 2016 with Dr. Koray at Asmed, one of the reputated name in Hair transplan field . In search of better option with better result that can suits my budget too. I was somehow ok with the Dr. Koray results but wasnt happy with the post care . Long story short i was looking for better clinic, during my search i contacted almost 20 clinics in Istanbul. They all are offering me the price range of between 2000 Euro to 2700 Euro , but different numbers of grafts . Funny part is that they all asking me for the photos of my head from different angles and as soon as i sent the photos . Most of them came back staright away with the package and graft numbers just within few mins ,made me think is there real Doctor who looked at my photos or just assistant. After more research and going through other people review i came to know in most of the cases Dr. Is not even involve in the surgery ,he doesnt even draw the hair line.i.e you paying for clinic and Doctor name but your transplant is being performed by assistant or trainees. Anyhow i was impressed with some clinics when they came back to me and ask to send the photos of my head that wasnt took properly .it gave me the feel that atleast they look at my photo properly before deciding hiw many grafts i needed. It helped me to narrow down my search to few clinics . I decided to use this covid situation to do my transplant as i am off from work. My search got intense and i start asking more and more questions to this hair transplant climics. Finally i found two clinics where Dr. Performs the most important part of hair transplant( incisions). Dr Cinik and Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu I asked them to send me the details. After going through their packages , i found Dr. Cinik offeres me two kind of packages one where Doctor is involve (expensive one) and one without Doctor(Cheaper one) Diamonr Hair climic offers only one package with 100% involvement of Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu. The most important reason that help me to choose, Diamomd hair clinic for my second hair transplant is, 1.) they accept only one patient for a day . 2.) Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu performing the critical incisions part. Once i contacted Diamond hair clinic ,for the booking . They respond me with the professional way and provided me all the details with the availiability. I booked my spot for 6th of November 2020. I reached on 5th of November ,Driver was waiting for me . He droped me to my hotel ,on the way he stopped in the supermarket as i wanted to buy some stuff. On Morning of 6th November ,Driver picked me from the hotel around 7:30 am and took me to the Diamond hair clinic. I was hopping some assistant will come and talk to me . I was amazed ,Dr. Mehmet was there by himself . He took me into their cabin and we had long talk there. Where is clears all my doubts ,i was so pleased that Dr himself is there for me . Once i was fully confident , Dr. Drew the hair line for my transplant ,he drew few times unless i was ok with that hair line. He told me that he will use 4500 grafts from back of my head and 1000 grafts from my beard area as i already had one hair transplant before. He explained me that with this many numbers of grafts he can cover the other part of the head where i loosing the hair aswell beside my crown area. Was so good to see that Dr. Is involve so much and he is thinking as patient point of view. After the hair line draw, i was taken to the operation room . Where Dr. Mehmet experianced and professional nurse took the Grafts.during all this time Doctor came so many time to check on me to make sure everything is going perfect. After they took the grafts ,i had lunch in Doctors Cabin. After lunch me and Dr. Mehmet went to operation room for incisions process . I was so happy that the whole process is performed by one and only Dr. Mehmet ,event though this process took several hours but it was all done by Doctor himself. After incisions process ,Doctors team started planting process . As its a long process we took a break inbetween had the dinner and then finished the process . Cant believe we started 7:30 in morning and its nearly 2 am of next day and during all these long hours doctor was there. After the transplant Dr. Mehmet and me sat in his office ,where he took my photos and discuss the post opertaions precautions . He asked me to rest next day and come for was the day after tomorrow . He gave me his personal watts app number ( such a good feel) ,that means you can talk to doctor anytime if needed. Dont have to talk to nurse or assistants. He advised me to send the photo of my head every day for first 10 days and then every week for first few months. After explaning the use of medication we finished our day it was nearly 2:30 am . On 8th of November 2020 i came to Dr. Clinic for my first wash. Here again Dr. Mehmet washed my head and explained me the whole process . He gone through again with all medications took my photo and gave me the final good bye. Its already 5 days and i am talking to Dr.Mehmet everyday In the end i just wanna say i am hoping for the best result and am sure i will get it. But so far i am very happy with my experiance with Dr. Mehmet and Diamond hair clinic, its worth every single penny. I higly recommend Dr. Mehmet and Diamond hair clinic to my friends and family. I never seen doctor like Dr. Mehmet who was fully involved all the time during the transplant ,he cleared all my doubts in professional way. I liked the way he directly shares his number with patients so he can review the progress and provide the assistant if needed. In the end i just wanna say ,if anyone looking for hair transplant without worrying much. Dr. Mehmet Demircioglu is your guy and Diamond hair clinic is your place in Turkey. Thanks”
