Sule Hair Transplant Turkey Review Summary

This review was published in September 2023. We have also added user reviews and the possibility for you to leave your review directly.

Experience With Sule Hair Clinic: First-Hand Encounter

The first thing we did in our review process was to check out Sule Hair Turkey’s website to book a consultation. First impression matters a lot and we were definitely not impressed with the customer support.

One of the primary indicators of an Istanbul hair transplant clinic’s professionalism and reliability is its ability to provide excellent customer support. It sets the tone for the entire customer experience, as attentive and responsive staff can help answer questions, alleviate concerns, and build trust with potential patients.

Sule Hair Istanbul’s website does offer multiple ways to initiate contact, including a WhatsApp chat head, a consultation form, as well as phone and email options.

Having encountered difficulties in reaching Sule Clinic Turkey via WhatsApp, we resorted to using their consultation form and email. The form itself was structured as a 4-step process, involving the submission of your contact details, your specific hair transplant requirements (whether it be for hair, beard, eyebrows, or women), photographs of your hair, and any additional information you wished to share.

Regrettably, our experience with Sule Hair Turkey’s customer support revealed several shortcomings. Communication, at the time of writing this review, was virtually non-existent through the online channels. 

If you are looking to get any feedback or assistance from Sule Hair Transplant Clinic, it appears that a direct phone call is the most reliable means of contact. This lack of responsiveness and communication raised concerns about the overall patient experience and left us with reservations about their services.

Booking Process

The booking process at Sule Hair Clinic involves filling out the 4-step consultation form or contacting them via their contact methods. You are asked to submit photographs of your hair and the type of hair transplant procedure you want.

Now, it’s not clear if they received our booking form or not, because we did not receive any message after submitting the form. Another thing to wonder about!

Sule Hair website has enough information about their procedures and patient guides – from arrival to departure. Although they explain their packages – silver, gold, and platinum – there is no clear price list on their website and you’ll have to book a consultation before they discuss their prices.

If you choose the Silver package, you’ll not have any access to their inclusive accommodation and airport transfer offer, meaning you’ll have to take care of your accommodation, feeding, and transportation. There is also no information about the price of further upgrades if you change your mind.

For the Gold package, you’ll enjoy access to accommodation, breakfast, and VIP transfers. While the Platinum package offers all the features of the Silver and Gold packages, you’ll also get 3-months worth of supplements, access to mesotherapy, and laser hair therapy.

According to Sule Hair Clinic’s website, the cost of your hair transplant is a nebulous figure, influenced by the package you choose and the extent of transplantation required. But how, you might wonder, is this calculation made? It’s a question that lingers like a riddle waiting to be solved. 

Pre-Operational Consultations

Sule Hair Clinic’s website does not have a lot of information about the pre-operational process. However, if you choose either the Gold or Platinum packages, this Turkey Hair Transplant Hospital can arrange your airport transfer and accommodation.

As part of their pre-operational process, Sule Hair Transplant Clinic offers a 3-step process to make things “easier”. In the first step, the hair transplantation clinic will send an airport guide to meet you with a sign at either Sabiha Gökçen or Istanbul Airport.

This driver will also serve as your hotel check-in guide and make sure you have everything you need. There is no clear information on which step the pre-operational package will begin for those who chose the silver package.

If you are on either the Gold or Platinum packages, the driver will pick you up in the morning and drive you to the Sule Clinic. Your procedures begin with a blood test, no matter the package. The second step involves payment, and in the third step, the number of grafts you’ll be transplanted with is approved.

Does it make sense to wait till the day of the surgery to know the number of grafts you’ll be getting? Not sure! But, that’s how Sule Hair Clinic does it.

You are expected to be in Turkey for 3 nights to complete the entire pre- and post-operative procedures.

Arrival & Accommodation

Sule Hair Transplant Clinic is located in the İSÜ Medical Park Gaziosmanpaşa Hospital which is in the Gaziosmanpaşa district of Istanbul. This area may not be known as a major tourist center, so, it is possible to find budget-friendly hotels and accommodation (if you are on the Silver package).

On the Gold and Platinum packages, you’ll get access to a 5-star hotel for 3 nights (the exact one was not mentioned), breakfast, and airport transfers. There is also a picture of how you should plan your trip to Turkey on their website. However, we are not sure if they provide a detailed itinerary after you book your hair transplant procedure.

Facility

Sule Hair Transplant Clinic Istanbul boasts of having up to 65 doctors. However, their website only shares information about 4 doctors out of 65.

Some customers doubt if Sule Clinic even has an accredited license. Now, that’s worrying! 

However, our research indicates that Sule Hair Clinic has a certificate to operate as an international health tourism agency. No information was displayed on their website concerning having a license.

The facilities at Sule Hair Clinic are impressive. You can watch the video tour of their clinic on the website. Their clinic has a waiting room, a consultation area, a “blood sample room”, and operating rooms.

We were impressed with their video, although it did not give technical information about the facilities and technology available at the clinic. The person giving the video tour was clearly not a hair transplant expert, and you can deduce it from the way they reviewed each section of the clinic.

Surgery & Doctor Involvement

Sule Hair Clinic has doctors on ground for each hair transplant procedure. However, it’s not clear if there will be a third-party doctor auditing the operation. According to their website, only one of the doctors on the operational team can speak fluent English. We are also not sure if a translator will be available during the operation.

Aftercare

Sule Hair Transplant Clinic’s website is not clear on their aftercare procedure. However, if we are to look at what is included in their packages, then some parts of the aftercare services are only available for those who pay for Gold and Platinum packages.

If you pay for their silver package then the clinic will help you with the first hair wash, give you a neck pillow, and probably provide post-op service – not clear which one. In the Gold package, you’ll get medication and care products and the aftercare offers in the silver package.

When we compare the aftercare packages of Sule Clinic and other hair transplant clinics in Turkey, a distinct contrast emerges. For instance, let’s compare Sule Clinic Istanbul and IdealofMed, a notable player in the hair transplant industry. While Sule Hair Clinic predominantly directs its attention towards the procedure itself, IdealofMed steps into a broader role akin to orchestrating a symphony of holistic care.

Sule Hair Clinic’s focus remains primarily centered on the transplant procedure, leaving a noticeable gap in the post-transplant journey. They do offer some aftercare services, with variations depending on the package chosen. The Silver package includes the first hair wash, a neck pillow, and a somewhat nebulous reference to post-op service. Scaling up to the Gold package introduces medication and care products, essentially echoing the offerings of the Silver package.

In contrast, IdealofMed emerges as a harmonious conductor of care, not merely limiting their involvement to the transplantation process. They enrich the patient experience with an ensemble of post-transplant essentials, including hair vitamins, specialized shampoos, and aftercare supplements.

The problem here is that we are not sure what they mean by post-care services. There is also no clear indication of how much these services cost if you want to upgrade. On the Platinum package, you’ll get 3 months supplement together with the post-care services in the Gold package.

There is no mention of financing or satisfaction guarantees on their website.

Sule Hair Transplant Clinic Background Information

Team

Sule Hair Clinic Hair Transplant Team is Led By Dr Sule Olmez

Sule Hair Transplant Clinic’s history appears to be cloaked in a shroud of uncertainty. According to their website, it was founded in 2016 by Hair Specialist Sule Karatas Olmez. Yet, a perplexing twist emerges as the website also credits Prof. Dr. Hakan Hanimoglu as the clinic’s founder. It’s a puzzling contradiction that leaves one to question the accuracy of the information provided.

Dr. Sule Olmez takes the helm as the lead doctor, wielding over 12 years of experience in the intricate field of hair transplantation. Her extensive repertoire includes a diverse set of skills and certifications spanning hair transplantation, medical aesthetics, ozone therapy, and dedicated patient care.

Adding to the intrigue, Dr. S. Alptuğ Yilmaz finds a place on the roster as a “responsible doctor at Sule Clinic.” Curiously, despite the clinic’s claim of housing over 60 healthcare professionals, the website spotlights only four.

The incongruity in the figures presented by Sule Hair Transplant Clinic raises a legitimate cause for concern. When a clinic asserts it has conducted “over 13,000 transplants” since 2016, it should logically follow that a substantial team of healthcare professionals and doctors would be essential to handle such a sizable caseload. 

However, the conspicuous absence of corroborating information on their website, which lists only four doctors and offers no detailed insights into the extensive medical team required for this volume of procedures, leaves us with more questions than answers. This discrepancy invites scrutiny and prompts one to question the transparency and reliability of the clinic’s assertions.
