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.
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.

My girlfriend had breast augmentation with Dr. Mete in May 2024, and it’s been 2 months. We really love the results. What a professional team! Thanks to my medical consultant, Joey, for helping us through everything.

Excellent customer care from Nesrine and Miray. I am very happy with service I received- my new nose looks amazing. Nurse Team was always available and ready to assist. Nesrine who was my medical coordinator went above and beyond to help me out, she even done shopping for me when I couldn’t go out from the hospital! I felt like I was a part of a family rather than just a client. Everyone was professional and so supportive. I will definitely be coming back to Badge Clinic in the future! Thank you

I went to Turkey to get my new healthy Hollywood smile. Badge Clinic was recommended to me and my initial experience with Miray was very positive. On my arrival I met Nesrine – my medical coordinator. She took excellent care of my dental journey. She was professional, always available and ready to help me. Nesrine went above and beyond to assist me and I am forever grateful for her effort. I would recommend Badge Clinic to everyone. Their customer service and care are exceptional. Thank you Nesrine and Miray!

I had my rhinoplasty at this clinic and had a very positive experience. The staff were professional and supportive from the consultation through recovery, and everything was well organized.

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 Health.

Badge clinic was amazing! I had nurses with me 24/7 who were there to help me understand what was happening during the procedure! Dr. Sarper was very kind and has done 100 liposuctions! He never made me feel uncomfortable and made sure I understood what was best for my body! Highly recommend!

Had a great experience from the minute i landed, everyone was very welcoming, made me feel at ease, can’t thank my 2 nurses enough from being in the hospital and hotel, kept reassuring me when was needed, especially being so far from home, definitely made the right choice with choosing badge clinic.. only thing i would say was hard was the language barrier but that’s excepted to come to there country, nothing google translate doesn’t help with x

Allora che dire di questa clinica
Sia dalla prima volta che li ho contattati fino al giorno che me ne sono andata da Istanbul
Tutto perfetto
Grazie a loro ho realizzato il mio sogno di rifarmi il seno risultato eccellente senza complicazioni lo staff ti assiste nei minimi dettagli e il dottor Mete ottimo professionista..
Cinque stelle sono poche da dare consiglio a tutti quelli che vogliono realizzare il proprio sogno.
Jess L.
Amazing results for my lipo. I initially had my doubts as to how everything was going to turn out, but my goodness, has Dr Mete come through! I’m so pleased with my results and the body line I hadn’t seen in ages! Everything was taken care of from the arrival right down to the departure. The first day of my surgery, the nurses were available throughout the day and night. I had a hard time the first few days even getting up and about, but support was on hand and they came to check up on me several times. The hospital was very clean and the room was definitely of a high standard for a hospital room ( defo VIP like room). Only thing I would say is get ready to use a google translator on your phone as English is obviously second language understandably and go with your eyes open as the first few days felt like death to me (so take someone to help you unlike me as i went alone)but the results are well worth it! Thanks to the staff and Dr Metexx.
Nicole S.
My experience with badge clinic has been amazing. The help and support I received both before and in Istanbul has been flawless. My coordinator Enes has been very helpful and answered all my questions. While I was in Istanbul my Coordinator Nebia has been extremely pleasant and made me feel welcomed. My surgeon Dr Mete has done a great job and for once when he asked if I had any questions I was speechless. My experience thus far has been amazing and I would definitely recommend Badge Clinic.

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.
