I interviewed about 30 clinics
I interviewed about 30 clinics. There are so many options in Turkey that it is easy to get overwhelmed about choosing who to trust. Yes, there are clinics that are either very cheap or extremely expensive. My biggest fear was ending up in one of those so-called “hair mills.” Obviously, I didn't want to sit in a crowded waiting room with dozens of other people waiting for my turn. I had several friends who had hair transplants in these hair factories and had really bad results. Later, an American friend of mine told me about Best Self Club, which led me to get in touch with them. This was my first experience, so I can't compare it to other clinics. However, I’ll explain how the process unfolded step by step: I reached out via WhatsApp and got a response within a few minutes. My medical consultant's name was Aisa. I sent her photos of my hair and my medical information. She got back to me within a few hours with a detailed medical report. She was very open, kind and transparent throughout the whole process. Once I made my decision, I paid a deposit worth 10% of the procedure cost. I received all the planning details and payment information by email. After I shared my flight information, I was picked up from the airport and taken to my hotel upon arrival in Istanbul. My driver spoke fluent English and even recommended some nice restaurants and cafes on the way. The next day a private driver took me to the clinic. First my blood tests were done and while waiting for the results, I had my consultation and hairline design, which took about an hour. I was the only hair transplant patient in the clinic that day - I was told that they only accept one patient a day. I never felt rushed and the procedure was coordinated by Nurse Asli, who was incredibly friendly and really professional. After finalizing my hairline, the operation began. The transplant was performed at a hospital connected to the clinic via an internal passage. The transplant area is fully private and personalized, no one you don’t know can access that space. There were 4 professionals performing the procedure, and they kept checking in with me to see if I was in any pain or discomfort. My interpreter also visited me regularly to ensure I was okay and didn’t need anything. I never felt alone. In fact, I fell asleep at some point during the operation. The entire procedure took around nine hours, with a break for a meal. After the initial 10 minutes, I didn’t feel any discomfort at all, my scalp was completely numb. The clinic and hospital were both clean, and the team was professional, organized, and friendly. The anxiety I had when I first entered the clinic quickly faded, and I soon found myself laughing and chatting with the team during my own surgery. The day after the transplant I was brought back to the clinic for a hair wash and post-operative check-up. Additional treatments were recommended. I received Selenium and Zinc IV therapy as well as Exosome and PRP injections. I was given clear, written instructions on what to do in the following days. I was given my medications and supplements with an explanation of how to use them. Later, my driver dropped me off at the airport smoothly, and I flew home. It has been about 9 months since my hair transplant. I can't even believe the results myself and I still have 3 more months for the full result. It has been a dramatic transformation. People who don’t know me have no idea I had a hair transplant. It looks completely natural. During these 9 months, I have been in contact with a dedicated follow-up specialist who checks on me regularly. He answers all my questions promptly, schedules video calls when necessary and recommends additional medications or supportive treatments based on my progress. They make you feel really special not only during the procedure but also afterwards. I hope my experience will help others who are in contact with this company. I highly recommend. Thank you for everything!
