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.
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
- English website available
- Free hair loss consultation
- Detailed information of procedures
- Team information available
- Clear price list available
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
- Clear itinerary before trip
- Possibility to reschedule booking for free
- Pre-operational consultations included
- Nutrition advice and supplements
- Pre-operational kit included
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
- Not included in all packages
- English speaking driver/coordinator available
- 5 star Western standard hotel included
- VIP Transfers included
- 3 nights stay standard (allowing for 1 day of rest)
- Blood test done upon arrival
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
- Comfort, including lunch, entertainment, clothes and ergonomic chair and bed
- Laser Measured Hairline, Density Measurement- and Donor Area Selection Tool
- Regulated EU Accredited Private Hospital with own room for surgery
- Hospital Level of Sanitation and Guaranteed Operation
- A-license (regulated by the Turkish government)
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
- Not included in all packages
- Nurses Part of Operational Team
- Third Party Doctor Auditing of Operation for Perfect Result
- English Speaking Medical Team
- Needleless anesthetics
- Reputable Doctor Part of Operational Team
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
- Standard Post Treatment Packages included
- Post-operational consultations
- After-care products provided for free
- 90% hair growth guarantee
- Financing options available
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.

Résultats trop décevant
J’ai choisi cette clinique après avoir cherché sur internet, et franchement, j’aurais mieux fait d’en sélectionner une autre. Seuls l’hôtel, les charmantes traductrices et le service de transport étaient à la hauteur ; le reste, c’est une vraie plaisanterie. Ma greffe a eu lieu en mars 2023, non pas dans la clinique, mais à l’hôpital américain. Le Dr Serkan s’est contenté de tracer une ligne en cinq minutes. On m’a rasé la tête avec une tondeuse sale, pleine de cheveux et de peaux d’autres clients. L’opération a été réalisée par des apprenants, avec juste un superviseur qui s’est occupé de ma ligne frontale – la seule partie bien implantée. Le reste a été fait par ces novices. Six mois plus tard, le résultat est désastreux : hormis la ligne frontale, les cheveux sont trop clairsemés, espacés de 3 à 5 mm, comme ceux d’une poupée bas de gamme. C’est affreux, et on voit encore clairement un golfe.
J’ai contacté le service, qui a accepté une retouche en septembre 2024. Mais rebelote : mêmes apprenants, cette fois dans la clinique. Ils ne m’ont pas rasé les cheveux – une erreur de ma part, car ça prend beaucoup plus de temps. Du coup, au lieu des 2500 greffons promis, ils n’en ont posé que 1100. Résultat : les espaces sont toujours visibles, et le golfe est à peine comblé. Très déçu, j’ai consulté une clinique en France pour un bilan. Selon eux, les greffons ont probablement péri à cause d’un délai de réaction trop long des médecins ou d’une mauvaise conservation. Pire encore, ils estiment que j’ai reçu bien moins d’implants que ce qui m’avait été promis. Bref, des greffons perdus à jamais à cause de cet amateurisme. Moralité : mieux vaut dépenser 4000 € de plus et aller en Belgique, en France ou en Espagne.

The organization and planning is straight forward and easy. They are very arranging and every step of the process goes smoothly. The hotel you stay in are great and I even been able to come with my girlfriend without additional cost.

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.

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.
Before you can truly commit to a hair transplant it is important to understand hair loss. Together with the experts at IdealofMeD, we wrote an e-book explaining everything you need to know about hair loss. From hair loss causes to practical tips on how to deal with hair loss and the best hair loss products.

No, procedures are carried out in a licensed clinic. There are blog posts and videos detailing how the clinic is maintaining its high standards of hygiene.
No, the clinic does not have an A-licence. Not having an A-Licence means that the clinic can only conduct one transplant per doctor per day. If a medical emergency arose, the patient would be transferred to a local hospital.
