Dr Serkan Aygın Hair Transplant Clinic Review Summary

The initial release of this review for Dr. Serkan Aygın Clinic dates back to June 2018. In order to maintain its relevance and precision, the review has been revisited and updated in August 2023. We’ve included feedback from users and now offer you the opportunity to contribute your own review directly. Should you desire to connect with past clinic patients and share your insights, you can do so through the Hair Back App.

Our Experience with dr Serkan Aygin Clinic in Istanbul: Step-by-Step

Let’s take a closer look at how the customer experience at the Serkan Aygin website unfolds. During my (Tom’s) visit to the Dr. Serkan Aygın hair transplant clinic website, I was immediately drawn to an enticing offer for a complimentary hair transplant analysis that promised to take just a mere 2 minutes of my time. The website offered various ways to get in touch, including a contact formor reaching out via WhatsApp.

Dr Serkan Aygin chat

The 2 minute analysis turned out to be a standardized form. Quite similar to the form we use on this site to calculate hair transplant cost. This kind of form proves to be effective for individuals who may be hesitant about undergoing a hair transplant and seek an initial interaction that isn’t overtly sales-oriented. Nonetheless, I had hoped for a swift response based on the information I provided in the form; unfortunately, that wasn’t the outcome.

Speaking from my perspective as someone who has undergone a hair transplant, I believe that every clinic stands to benefit from providing clear and transparent price lists early on in the process. Patients shouldn’t have to search for this information; it should be readily available.

Booking Process

2 / 5

When you visit the Dr Serkan Aygın hair transplant clinic website, you will find the offer for a free hair transplant analysis, which takes all of 2 minutes! To request an online consultation, you can use the contact form to which you need to attach photos. Directions are provided on which photos to send with the form. You can also contact via WhatsApp. The site indicates that Dr Aygın will perform the consultation. Following this, one of his assistants will contact you to discuss the procedure, clarify expectations and make arrangements for your visit to the Dr Serkan Aygın clinic.

It is a little confusing when you open the site as to whether the hair analysis is part of the online consultation, which it isn’t. You need to apply for that separately. The site has a lot of relevant information as to the procedures offered with interesting, informative blog posts and a comprehensive FAQ section. Unfortunately what it does not have is a price list anywhere on the site.

Pre-Operational Consultations

1 / 5

The website does offer a lot of information about what to expect pre-procedure and during the procedure—using a question and answer format to cover this wide subject. In fact, there may be a little too much information to take in one go. Every page has its question and answers which tells you a lot about the subject of hair transplantation, but nothing on hair transplant packages.

The site does not indicate anything about what is included if you choose to have a hair transplant procedure at Dr Serkan Aygın’s clinic. Nothing about the financial costs, except general comments on why the procedures are cheaper in Turkey than elsewhere. Neither could anything be found about the accommodation or the transfers provided.

Arrival & Accommodation

2 / 5

All patients should have had their photos seen by Dr Serkan Aygın, but then you are told an assistant will contact you. Presumably, it is at this point when you discuss the costs and packages.

The promise of VIP transfers, English speaking drivers and co-coordinators can be found on external reviews. These reviews are mixed on the standard of this service, from excellent to communication problems and late pickups. The only comment regarding a package is a comment on the site that says ‘even if you add accommodation costs to the billing…’ which leaves you asking is it included or not?

The Dr Serkan Aygın site does not provide any information on the available hotels, so, they could be from 2* to 5*, it’s a guessing game. It appears that all of this practical information is only discussed with the patients directly and not seen as an essential element to have on their website.

Facility

2 / 5

The images of the Dr Serkan Aygın clinic show a very well-designed and beautifully decorated environment. Based in the 32-storey Key Plaza in the Istanbul district of Şişli. This area is a central area of Istanbul on the European side and an easy ride to Taksim, and some of the famous historical sites.

The clinic itself is not a hospital and has not got an A-licence. It does offer a modern treatment room, maintained to high standards, alongside equipment providing Laser hair therapy, density measurement and donor selection tool. Lack of the A-licence means it does not have emergency services, and any health problems arising will entail the transfer of the patient to the nearest hospital.

Surgery & Doctor Involvement

4 / 5

Dr Serkan Aygın has an impressive CV. that is clearly stated on the website. There are references to his assistants and co-ordinators but no introduction to the medical team. The actual procedures are very well-documented as is the pre-operative patient guide, which clearly indicates what you should or should not be doing prior to the hair transplant procedure.

Aftercare

0 / 5

There is a comprehensive post-hair transplant guide on the site that covers from day 1 to 12 -18 months after the procedure, answering many questions on what to expect. The post-procedure hair wash is clearly documented and explains what to do and when. it also states Dr Serkan Aygın clinic will provide a shampoo and lotion to use in the first month following the procedure. The clinic also provides paperwork that contains detailed information on the hair transplant procedure.

We Rate Dr Serkan Aygın Clinic

1.7/5.0

Dr Serkan Aygın is an accomplished award-winning hair transplant doctor, and the clinic website reflects his knowledge and experience. The difficulty is, it’s too much information, in that it is overwhelming and spread over several pages.

The site offers several treatments including FUE & DHI for men and women, but if you are searching for prices and hair transplant packages, you will be left wanting, as neither are on the site. Nor are any costs for the hair transplantation procedures done at the Dr Serkan Aygın clinic available.

The website needs some work in providing information on the cost of procedures and what extras a patient has to pay. Information like are there any all-inclusive packages or is a deposit required? Included in the mission statement of the Dr Serkan Aygın clinic is a promise that there will be no additional charges above the quote provided. But what the quote includes is unknown.

Ma récente expérience de greffe capillaire avec le Dr. Serkan Aygen le 15 a été véritablement transformative. Le professionnalisme et l’expertise du Dr. Aygen ont été exemplaires, et son équipe m’a offert un soutien exceptionnel tout au long du processus. Je suis extrêmement reconnaissant envers Madame Kenza pour son aide précieuse tout au long de cette aventure. Sa guidance et son soutien ont été inestimables, et je suis maintenant impatient de voir les résultats de ce voyage vers la restauration capillaire.

From the initial enquiry I made through Dr Aygin’s website, the service has been spot on. They dealt with initial questions by whatsapp and once I had booked in for treatment, the clinic were in contact with me the whole time and couldn’t have made it any easier.

I had 4,500 grafts altogether and am so pleased with the results! The treatment was painless, the aftercare was faultless, and I’d recommend this clinic without hesitation to anyone considering a transplant.

When I got to Turkey, I was picked up at the airport and taken to my hotel, and each day was taken to and from the clinic by one of their drivers.

On the first day I was taken to the operating room and given a mild anaethetic before they gave me loads of local anaesthetic in my head. Two surgeons worked constantly to remove the grafts, while a team of 4 or 5 at the back of the room counted the grafts and prepared them for transplant.

Once all the grafts were out, I was given a sandwich & a drink, and then laid back down for the transplant. This went really well and didn’t hurt at all (it just felt like someone gently tapping my head for ages!).

After the surgery, I was given dinner and one of the doctors explained the process and the aftercare to me very clearly, and answered any questions I had.

I returned to the clinic the next day where they gave me laser treatment, washed my head & treated it.

They answered more questions, explained everything again and then I bought a pack of treatment creams and oils which help promote recovery over the coming months.

I was taken back to the hotel and the following day was picked up and taken to the airport.

After this, the clinic continued to stay in touch – they want progress pictures and remain on hand to answer any questions.

I’m now 1 year on from having the transplant and am so happy with the results – I can’t fault them or recommend them highly enough!!

If I had to give any advice? It would be to trust the process and do exactly what they say, especially for the first 6 months – look after the hair, use the creams and oils, be gentle, and also don’t worry when it falls out initially around month 2 to 3, because in months 7 to 9 it all comes back thick and healthy and great!!

If you ever have doubts, you don’t need to. This clinic is the one to use for sure!

5 stelle per la professionalità mostrata prima, durante e nel post-operazione. Supporto costante da parte di tutti i dipendenti ed i medici, disponibilità e prontezza nella risposta via whatsapp o telefonica. Mi ha colpito in particolar modo il fatto che tutti gli interpreti non fossero semplici traduttori italiano/turco ma professionisti altamente edotti su tutti i dettagli tecnici dell’ambito. Infine, una lode va anche alla clinica comoda da raggiungere, igienicamente impeccabile e letteralmente una galleria d’arte.

Ein absolut positives und hochprofessionelles Erlebnis. Meine Highlights waren das Ambiente in der Klinik (Kaffee-Bar, Echtkunst etc.) und das maximal sympathische Operationsteam. Lediglich das Hotel (Nova Plaza Pera) fiel da etwas ab: Gute Lage und saubere Zimmer, aber für deutsche Verhältnisse sehr schlechtes Frühstück.

Ich hatte am 22. März meine OP in der Klinik. Das gesamte Team ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Support in Deutsch war vor, während und nach der OP wirklich super, die OP selbst war ca. siebeneinhalb Stunden und wurde sehr professionell durchgeführt. Ich habe mich gut aufgehoben gefühlt, die Klinik und das Personal sind sehr professionell!

Ottima esperienza! Tutto il personale (sia medico che non) si è rapportato con sincera e gradevole cordialità.

Anche dal punto di vista clinico nulla da eccepire.

La clinica è molto bella, pulita e godibile. Il percorso del paziente è ben organizzato e fluido. Anche il supporto delle navette e dell’hotel assolutamente impeccabile.

Dr Serkan Aygin Clinic Background Information

Team

Are Dr Serkan Aygin Clinic HairTransplants Done By Dr Serkan Aygın?

According to the website, hair transplants at the clinic take between 5 -6 hours. Watching the interesting videos of the procedures on the site, it does appear that Dr Serkan Aygın does the pre-consultation on the procedure day, but it appears an assistant does the extractions with supervision from the doctor. The team at the clinic is not introduced on the website, so how many other doctors there are or how well trained is unclear, although the mission statement does refer to, “specialized doctors, all experts in their fields.”

Dr Serkan Aygın has considerable experience in the field of hair transplantation—in practice since 1996. In addition to his BA in Medicine, he has a Masters in Clinical Pharmacology and Dermatology and is a member of the International Society For Dermatology. As one of the first doctors performing DHI hair transplant and FUE hair transplant procedures in Turkey, he has considerable expertise. This experience was honoured at the 2019 European Awards in Medicine receiving the award for Europe’s Best Hair Transplant Surgeon.

Before and After Pictures

Dr Serkan Aygin Hair Transplant Before And After Results

There are plenty of dr serkan aygin clinic photos available to view on the clinic website. The clinic also has active social media accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube. The Dr Serkan Aygin reviews on Trustpilot were from 90 reviews, 2018 -2020, the majority, 86%, were favourable with 14% from bad to ok. Several reviewers commented on the lack of involvement of Dr Serkan Aygın himself in the procedures.

Methods and Treatments

Dr Serkan Aygın Clinic Transplantation Methods & Treatments

The clinic offers hair transplantation services for men and woman, including beard and eyebrow transplants. The procedures used are FUE, Sapphire FUE and DHI. The clinic also offers hair mesotherapy & hair treatments for hair loss problems alongside LLLT, Low-Level Laser Treatment. LLLT is an FDA approved therapy that Dr Serkan Aygın provides for his patients.

Dr Serkan Aygın’s experience and skill are without a doubt top-quality, but it is unclear if the top man himself will perform your procedure. So make sure to discuss this during an online consultation. As we are unaware of who the medical team are cannot review them, although images on the website indicate this is a large team. Incorporated into the Doku Medical Centre, opened 2017, hair transplantation is available alongside cosmetic surgeries, dermatology and medical aesthetics options.

Costs and Packages

Dr Serkan Aygin Cost of Hair Transplants, Available Packages And Extras

Unfortunately, we cannot comment on the Dr Serkan Aygin price for hair transplants or any packages available as not included on any of the clinic’s websites; there are three sites. Reviews on Trustpilot do not contain any costs. However, our reviewer did find an unsubstantiated review on Google. This indicated prices started from 2,500€, but not how many grafts or what else was included.

The area of Şişli is a business hub of Istanbul, and there are plenty of hotels of every grade, but there is no indication of which hotels are in use for the patients of the Dr Sekan Aygın clinic. Patients undergoing a hair transplant procedure will need at least a two-day stay in the city. More if you wanted time to explore fascinating Istanbul.
