My experiences, especially with the consultant (Roman), were very good. He advised me well and responded to my wishes, looked at what he couldn't help me with. I was not forgotten or set aside after a missed call, but was contacted again to determine a joint result. Open, honest and helpful.. highest satisfaction

I received very good but not pushy advice right from the first consultation. I got sufficient information and was able to ask questions at any time.

At first I was somewhat skeptical. Due to the excellent reputation, I decided to have the hair transplant done in Istanbul. Upon arrival; I was very enthusiastic. Very friendly staff, I was very well received. The procedure ran smoothly and without any problems. Overall, I was very satisfied. For a hair transplant, this clinic is absolutely recommendable! This clinic was the best decision for me!
