Hair Center of Turkey

What Hair Center of Turkey does

Hair Center of Turkey is a privately held medical tourism clinic founded in 2014 in the Bakırköy district of Istanbul, providing hair transplant, beard transplant, and eyebrow transplant services to international patients. The clinic performs procedures using three core techniques — Sapphire FUE (sapphire-tipped blade channel creation), DHI (Choi-pen direct implantation), and Hybrid (a combination of both) — alongside specialized variants for Afro-textured hair, female pattern hair loss, and unshaven procedures. Procedures are delivered by a small senior team led by founder Sinan Özer, dermatology specialist Dr. Rasime Erkan (35+ years of experience, joined 2017), and Zehra Özer, with a reported cumulative caseload of 8,000+ procedures and a 96% self-reported success rate.

The business model is direct-to-consumer medical tourism, with no intermediaries. All-inclusive packages bundle surgery, 3-night 5-star hotel accommodation, VIP airport and city transfers, translation, medications, and post-operative aftercare, with pricing ranging from approximately €2,750 (Sapphire FUE) to €5,500 (Hybrid). Patient acquisition runs through a multilingual website supporting 12 languages, WhatsApp-based photo consultations, and active content marketing on Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and earned-media features in outlets such as Reuters, Yahoo Finance, Nasdaq, and Business Insider. The clinic operates from a single operating theatre in Istanbul, has 51-100 staff, and is funded entirely through operating cash flow with no disclosed external investment.
