Does a Doctor or Technician Perform The Hair Transplant in Turkey?

In this blog post, we will address the following frequently asked question; Does a Doctor or Technician Perform The Hair Transplant in Turkey? By answering this question that many people have in mind, we will guide you in choosing the right clinic for hair transplantation. Let's answer this question first:

What is hair transplantation?

Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure used to restore hair growth in areas of the scalp that have thinning or balding hair. During the procedure, a surgeon will remove small sections of hair-bearing skin from an area of the scalp with healthy hair growth and transplant them to an area of the scalp with thinning or balding hair. The transplanted hair follicles should begin to grow new hair within a few months.

How many hours is a hair transplant procedure?

The length of a hair transplant procedure can vary depending on the type of procedure being performed and the amount of hair being transplanted. Generally speaking, a typical hair transplant procedure usually takes between 4 and 8 hours.

Why are hair transplants usually done by technicians?

Due to the length of the hair transplant procedure, technicians in most clinics perform hair transplants and doctors check them and determine how much hair will be planted in which area. The reason for this is the difference between the hourly wages of the technician and the doctor. Clinics employ technicians to be cheap. In fact, some clinics do not even have a doctor for hair transplantation. Experienced technicians lead other technicians. This is like the botox procedure, which the technician can do in the beauty center or the plastic surgeon can do this in the clinic. There is no doubt that the procedures performed by doctors are always more successful than those performed by technicians.

Can I find the clinic where the doctor performs hair transplantation for a quality workmanship?

While this is rare, it certainly does. There are clinics where doctors do hair transplantation for quality hair transplantation. Companies that provide VIP services and high quality standards, such as Fibemed Healthcare, offer hair transplant doctors to you. Don't let this make you think that the price will be too expensive. Even if a doctor performs hair transplantation in Turkey, it is still much cheaper than the UK, USA and European countries.

Is there a quality difference between a doctor or a technician doing the hair transplant?

Yes, there is a quality difference between a doctor or a technician doing a hair transplant. A doctor is a medical professional who has been trained and certified to perform hair transplant surgeries, while a technician is not. A doctor is more likely to have the knowledge and experience to perform hair transplant surgeries with a higher level of skill and precision, resulting in better results.

What is the difference between doctors and technicians in hair transplant prices?

Hair transplantation is priced between £10,000-15,000 in the UK and $8,000-15,000 in the US. In Turkey, unapproved institutions do this for less than €1.000 but this is definitely not recommended. Because the knives used in hair transplantation must be made in Europe and a new knife set should be opened for each patient. Some clinics disinfect and reuse the same knives to make more profit, and this is very risky. The prices for a sterile hair transplant in Turkey should be as follows. If the technician is doing the hair transplant, the price should be between €1.500-2.000, lower prices indicate that the quality is very low. If the doctor is doing hair transplantation, the price should be between €2.000-4.000.
