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 whole journey with badge clinic was very professional, everyone was very friendly and helpful, from the first consultation and later on site in turkey. The ladies have looked after me very well and I want to express my gratitude. Dr. Mete has done a fabulous job, and I can’t wait to see my end results in a few months.
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 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.
Not sure where to start! 10 out of 10. Badge Clinic is the best thing that ever happened to me. Surgeons are professional and can’t say thank you enough to the nurses at the hospital and the hotel. They were caring and helpful. My coordinator Miray was explaining everything in detail so I was aware of everything. She still messaging me after I was back in UK. 🥰 Can’t thank this team enough! Thank you ❤️🙏
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 got a breast augmentation and otoplasty with Dr Mete. He was very friendly and gave me exactly what I asked for. I am very happy with my results so far. The nurses were also very friendly and helpful.
From the initial enquiry, through booking, surgery and post operative care badge were extremely helpful and reassuring.
The hospital was clean and comfortable and were accommodating to both myself and my companion.
Dr Mete listened to what I wanted whilst offering his professional opinion and giving me the results that I was looking for.
My coordinator Şevval were always on hand regardless of the time of day, to answer any queries, concerns or basic questions I had. No query was to pig or to small.
My hotel nurse Beyza was extremely friendly and so helpful in my aftercare. Again no query or request was to big or to small. She checked on me a few times a day each day and was always available through the WhatsApp group. She made my after care stay so much more comfortable.
Even after I have returned home they are still in contact to offer support and ensure everything is going well.
I would definitely recommend badge clinic for anyone seeking cosmetic surgery. I myself was recommended badge and I am so glad I chose them. My procedures were a fraction of the cost of the UK but this did not take away from the level of care and support that was provided

I had a really positive experience from start to finish. Everything was so easy to book, and the whole process was organised really well. As soon as I arrived in Turkey, I was picked up from the airport and taken straight to the hotel, …
The crew was very helpful and informative. It’s clear that they want you to be as comfortable as possible throughout the process. The consultant is just one message away and fast in responding to your questions and every need. The surgery went well and I can’t wait to see the results. The transportation was also very precise and on time for every trip. 👍🏾
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.
I am very pleased with the services of the clinic, the team of doctors and nurses are very helpful in every situation. The procedure was successful, tummy tuck with 360 liposuction, I am very pleased. A wonderful hotel designed for rest, drivers always on time. A clinic worth recommending.
I would like to firstly thank aleyna , irem and Nesrine for all their amazing support help and although so friendly but very professional. They made me feel part of The Badge family .. I also want to thank wonderful surgeon Muhammad Eren Șimșek he has done amazing. Feel a million dollars no pain but perfection. My second time now at the Badge and I will most certainly be back. Again from the beginning in contact with admin to flights to the driver to the hotel.. everything runs so smoothly and the people are just gorgeous. I literally will miss them. I’m so happy with the whole process❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your dream appearance is closer than ever — guided by professionals and delivered through four simple, trusted steps.
Sapphire FUE is a minimally invasive hair restoration method that involves extracting hair follicles individually and implanting them into recipient sites created with sapphire blades. The V-shaped sapphire tips enable more controlled incisions, allowing for denser and more natural-looking hairlines.
This technique is especially effective for:
The procedure follows these main steps:
Donor Area Preparation: Hair follicles are harvested one by one from the donor area (usually the back of the scalp).
Sapphire Blade Channel Creation: Using fine sapphire blades, the surgeon creates micro-channels in the recipient area with extreme precision.
Graft Implantation: Extracted follicles are placed into the channels at the correct angle and depth to mimic natural growth.
The sapphire blades reduce trauma, resulting in quicker recovery and higher graft survival. The procedure typically lasts 6–8 hours.
Patients usually experience minimal discomfort after Sapphire FUE. Redness and swelling are less compared to traditional FUE due to reduced tissue trauma.
2–3 days: Patients can return to work and light activities.
1 week: Redness and scabs usually heal.
3–4 months: Initial new hair growth begins.
6–12 months: Noticeable density and natural results.
With proper aftercare, Sapphire FUE delivers permanent results and a seamless, natural appearance.
Sapphire FUE is a safe procedure, but minor risks such as temporary redness or swelling may occur. Choosing an experienced clinic like Badge Health ensures minimized risks and excellent outcomes.
