About the Clinic

Aestepool Clinic is a hair transplant clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, offering Micro FUE — including with sapphire blades and a 0.7 mm punch — and, less often, DHI. Procedures cover scalp restoration for men and women as well as beard and eyebrow transplantation, with up to 5,000 grafts in a single operation and a maximum of two surgeries carried out per day. The clinic's chief surgeon personally performs the key stages of each procedure, supported by a medical team, and an English-, Spanish- or Polish-speaking translator is available during a patient's stay. Patients are assessed for suitability either by submitting photographs and a questionnaire or at consultation points in Europe, including Poland and Italy.

Procedures Offered

FUE
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a minimally invasive hair transplant technique where individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area using a small circular punch tool. The harvested follicles are then carefully implanted into the balding or thinning areas of the scalp. This method leaves tiny, nearly invisible scars rather than a linear scar, resulting in faster healing and the ability to wear shorter hairstyles. Because of this, FUE is the most popular hair transplant technique today.

Turkey has strict written rules for hair transplants, but checking that clinics follow them is weak.

Turkey has no government website where you can search for your doctor and check they are licensed to operate. You have to ask the clinic.
