Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is one of the most popular and advanced methods of hair transplantation, offering natural results with minimal scarring. Unlike older techniques, FUE involves extracting individual hair follicles and implanting them directly into thinning or balding areas.
This minimally invasive procedure has become the gold standard in modern hair restoration, and at Badge Health in Turkey, patients receive world-class care with highly skilled surgeons and state-of-the-art facilities.
Badge clinic get 5 stars and more for me. In my opinion there is no other clinic I would go to now. This is my second visit to badge clinic. I previously came for breast augmentation in 2020 so when I decided I wanted a tummy tuck and lipo, there was no other clinic I trusted. Dr Burak and his team are absolutely brilliant at what they do and I’m so impressed with my latest procedure. Their aftercare team is second to none and nothing is too much for these guys. They definitely go that extra mile to make you feel welcome and at ease. Love you guys, can’t wait to come back next year for even more procedures! ❤️❤️

I was a patient at Badge Clinic. I was impressed by how well they organized to pick me up from the airport, then take me to the hotel and get me back on time. They were very well organized, the staff is pleasant, but the organizers were in touch with me to be sure that everything is done professionally and on time; I also have friends who were patients at this clinic and were satisfied. Thank you Badge clinic so we will definitely see you soon.

I recently underwent a hair transplant at Badge Clinic in Istanbul, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the post-procedure follow-up, the team at Badge Clinic demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and genuine care.
The clinic itself is state-of-the-art, with modern facilities that made me feel comfortable and reassured throughout the process. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure all my questions were answered and that I felt fully prepared before the procedure. The medical team, led by highly skilled surgeons, was extremely meticulous, ensuring everything was done with precision and care.
The procedure itself was smooth and relatively painless, and I was impressed with the thoroughness and attention to detail. The team ensured I understood the post-op care instructions, and the follow-up support has been fantastic. I am excited about the final outcome!
Traveling to Istanbul for this procedure was definitely worth it also VIP transportation between airport, 5 start to clinic and Badge Clinic provides an excellent combination of affordability and world-class expertise. For anyone considering a hair transplant, I would highly recommend Badge Clinic. They exceeded my expectations in every way.

Very welcoming people. I was stressed that the doctor had to take my canine out and is visible so they came with the option with a temporary tooth until next appointment for the implant. Also the bridge procedure was done with precision. Honestly they know what they are doing and you feel in good hands. Highly recommend Badge Clinic.🌸🌸🌸

Honestly could not knock my experience
Honestly could not knock my experience. Flying solo I was very nervous. I had Nesrine guide me through it all who is an amazing coordinator. I got to the hospital and again was very nervous but was soon reassured. I then got settled in a lovely hospital room. I had bloods taken, chest x-ray and an ultrasound scan on tummy. I then met with my doctor Professor Dr. Cengiz Eriş who was very knowledgeable and made me at ease. I then got given the go ahead for Gastric sleeve surgery. It has been an experience and I’m
So glad to say a success. I was up walking a few hours after. Day 2 is probably the worst but once you get through it your on cloud 9. I met with my dietician and given all my protein shales and vitamins. Then got discharged day 3 post op. I got transferred to a beautiful hotel where I am relaxed and it’s beautiful. Thankyou for everything ❤️

I had breast augmentation with badge clinic. The experience from start to finish has been very smooth. The hospital is very clean and staff as helpful as can be. Slight language barrier with some nurses but was fine overall. Very happy with my results and would recommend to anyone thinking about coming to Turkey for the same surgery.
Mason R.
I did the hair transplant. Everyone was super cool and nice. My Coordinator Nisrine walked me through all of the steps so I knew what to expect through the procedure and for my after care. The whole process they make sure you are comfortable and accommodated. 10/10 Would recommend to a friend!
Paulina U.
I highly recommend Badge Clinic. From the beginning to the end they were really supportive! All nurses and doctors above and beyond professional. Me and my partner were treated like in 5 star hotel.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a hair restoration procedure in which hair follicles are harvested one by one from a donor area—typically the back or sides of the scalp—and then transplanted into the recipient area. Because follicles are extracted individually, FUE leaves tiny dot-like scars that are virtually undetectable, making it an excellent choice for patients who prefer short hairstyles.
FUE is ideal for:
Receding hairlines
Thinning crowns and temples
Correcting previous transplants
Patients seeking minimal downtime
How is FUE Hair Transplant Performed?
The FUE procedure consists of several key steps:
Donor Area Preparation: The donor area is trimmed and numbed with local anesthesia.
Follicle Extraction: Individual follicles are carefully extracted using a micro-punch device.
Graft Preservation: Extracted follicles are preserved under optimal conditions until implantation.
Implantation: Tiny incisions are made in the recipient area, and follicles are implanted at precise angles and depths to mimic natural hair growth.
The procedure typically takes between 6–8 hours depending on the number of grafts required.
Advantages of FUE Hair Transplant
Minimally invasive with no stitches
Quick recovery and less post-op discomfort
Permanent and natural-looking results
Minimal scarring, nearly invisible
Suitable for both men and women
Can be used for scalp, beard, or eyebrow restoration
Recovery After FUE Hair Transplant
FUE has one of the fastest recovery times in hair restoration. Patients can usually resume daily activities within 2–3 days. Some redness and swelling may appear but subside within a week.
2–3 weeks: Shedding of transplanted hair (normal process)
3–4 months: New hair growth begins
6–9 months: Noticeable density and coverage
12 months: Final natural results
At Badge Health, patients receive comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure maximum graft survival and long-lasting outcomes.
Risks and Considerations
While FUE is a safe procedure, minor side effects such as temporary swelling, redness, or follicle shock loss may occur. These typically resolve on their own. Choosing experienced surgeons, like those at Badge Health, ensures a safe procedure with excellent results.
