Voila Health Tourism’s website immediately captivates with its sleek design upon landing. Navigating the site is effortless, thanks to its user-friendly layout, ensuring an optimal browsing experience. While the website clearly delineates the offered procedures, the absence of specific details about the surgical team raises initial concerns.
The clinic offers various contact options, including a form on their website where you can provide your name, email, and phone number for them to reach out. Additionally, they can be reached via WhatsApp chat and Instagram. However, the responsiveness across these channels varied; they promptly replied to my Instagram message, responded to my WhatsApp message a few hours later, while the message I left on their website form remained unanswered. In this Voila Health Tourism review, I will concentrate on evaluating their hair transplant procedures and related services.
2 / 5
Voila Health Tourism’s booking process appears straightforward. By providing necessary details and photographs, prospective patients initiate the customization of their hair transplant package. However, the absence of a predefined price list could be a point of contention for individuals seeking transparent cost information before committing to the procedure.
However, after you contact them and provide more details on what you seek to change about your hair loss experience, a consultant will give you the hair transplant options that are most adapted to your needs.
2 / 5
Prior to the actual procedure, Voila Health Tourism guarantees that each patient undergoes comprehensive pre-operative consultations. These consultations are carried out by highly experienced doctors who carefully evaluate the patient’s hair loss condition, engage in discussions about the desired results, and formulate a personalized treatment plan.
3 / 5
One of Voila Health Tourism’s Clinic’s strong points lies in its accommodation offerings. Clients are assured of a comfortable stay in a 5-star hotel, coupled with VIP transfers for a seamless experience. The inclusion of these amenities reflects the clinic’s commitment to providing a luxurious and stress-free environment for its patients.
However, the website doesn’t specify whether meals are included in these packages, which could be an important factor for clients planning their budget. Clarification on this aspect is essential to avoid unexpected costs during the stay.
2 / 5
The Voila Health Tourism Clinic website showcases their commitment to patient comfort, with mentions of ergonomic chairs, entertainment, and meals. However, I believe that there could be more specific details concerning these amenities. Transparency regarding the comfort and facilities provided can play a crucial role in easing potential patients’ concerns.
Voila Clinic highlights its commitment to providing high-quality treatments with advanced technologies. While they mention these technologies, specific details about them, such as Laser Measured Hairline or Density Measurement, are not provided on the website. More information about these technologies can help clients understand the procedures better.
The hair transplant procedure usually spans a duration of 4 to 8 hours, a timeframe largely contingent on the quantity of grafts being transplanted. Employing cutting-edge technology and equipment, the internationally accredited facility ensures the utilization of the latest advancements in hair transplant techniques.
With an A-License certification, the clinic upholds stringent standards of sanitation, prioritizing the well-being of every patient. Each individual is assigned a private room, enhancing their comfort and ensuring a personalized and dedicated care environment.
4 / 5
Voila Health Tourism provides an overview of the hair transplant procedures they offer, including FUE and DHI. There is also detailed information about the surgical team’s qualifications and a user-friendly presentation of each specialist on their social media channels (as seen on a highlight called “Our Doctors” on their Instagram account, for instance). However, I believe there should be more available information concerning the presence of translators.
3 / 5
While Voila Clinic mentions aftercare services as part of their packages, with mentions of painkillers and additional medications, the specific components of their aftercare package remain undisclosed, at least this is what I saw upon consulting the information available on their website. Clear communication about post-operative care, including the provision of aftercare products and consultations, is essential for ensuring a smooth recovery process.
However, after looking up the rest of their social media channels, such as TikTok , YouTube and Instagram, there are several videos and pictures of patients that agreed to share the details of their hair transplant/recovery process, which makes up for valuable information to any potential future patient of Voila Health Tourism and is undoubtedly reassuring.
2.7/5.0
Upon investigating Voila Health Tourism’s TrustPilot reviews, a slightly concerning pattern emerges. While most reviews are positive, there are alarming 1-star testimonials that demand attention. Several clients reported distressing experiences, including inadequate post-operative care leading to complications, lack of transparency, and unprofessional conduct.
Voila Clinic has faced some criticism for its lack of transparency and misleading practices, with clients expressing frustration over insufficient information about procedure risks, leading to unpleasant surprises. Numerous reviews detail inadequate post-operative care, citing unresponsiveness, dismissiveness, and negligence from clinic staff. TrustPilot reviews highlight significant gaps in patient care and ethics at Voila Health Tourism, urging potential clients to approach with caution, conduct thorough research, and consider these testimonials seriously before deciding on cosmetic procedures.
While Voila Clinic demonstrates potential, the existing challenges in transparency, communication, and patient care must be addressed to ensure a positive and safe experience for all clients. Prospective patients are strongly urged to approach Voila Clinic with skepticism, conduct comprehensive research, and consider the testimonials seriously before making any decisions. Engaging in open communication with the clinic and seeking detailed, written assurances regarding all aspects of the procedure and aftercare is essential to mitigate potential risks and ensure a satisfactory outcome.
My Lipo 360 and Hip Fat Injections Experience
I recently underwent Lipo 360 (liposuction on my stomach, back, and arms) combined with a fat transfer to my hips, performed by Dr. Furkan through VOILA Health Tourism in Turkey. I spent nine days there, and overall, it was a challenging yet positive experience.
Why I Chose This Surgery
I’m a young woman with a slim-normal build. 166cm Before the surgery, I weighed about 72–74kg and struggled with stubborn fat on my stomach, back, and arms that I couldn’t get rid of through exercise. Additionally, I wanted to smooth out my hip dips for a more balanced and natural look. My goal was not a dramatic change but a proportional body shape.
A friend who had a great experience with Dr. Furkan recommended him, and after researching his expertise in plastic surgery, I felt confident choosing him. I prepared two months in advance by adjusting my diet and exercise routine, managing to lose about 8–9 kg. By the day of the surgery, I weighed 64 kg. I understood that liposuction isn’t a weight-loss procedure but rather a way to contour and reshape the body.
Arrival and Surgery
VOILA Health Tourism organized everything professionally. I traveled alone from Munich, which was nerve-wracking for such a major surgery, but the team made me feel supported. Upon arrival, I was picked up at the airport by a private chauffeur and taken to my hotel.
The day before the surgery, I met Canan, the coordinator, who was very helpful and made the process smooth. Her support and professionalism added to the overall positive experience. I also had a quick consultation with Dr. Furkan. He listened to my goals and immediately understood what I wanted: a natural, proportional look. No unnatural mega body shape. He suggested slightly overfilling my hips to account for the fat that would dissolve over time, which made sense. His professionalism reassured me, and I felt confident in his approach.
The surgery itself went smoothly, but the first four days of recovery were very very challenging. The swelling and bruising were far worse than I anticipated, and it was difficult to move around. During this time, I was absolutely dependent on the nurses for everything—getting out of bed, moving around, and managing the drainage tubes. The nurses, especially Irem, İram, and Sheyda, were incredibly kind, patient, and supportive, and I truly couldn’t have managed without them.
While my hotel stay was comfortable and breakfast included, the food delivery policy was a major inconvenience. After surgery, I relied on food delivery for lunch and dinner as it was more affordable and offered variety. However, the hotel wouldn’t allow drivers to bring food to my room, so I had to pick it up from the lobby myself.
This was especially difficult during the first four days post-op when I was swollen, in pain, and wearing drainage tubes. Walking to the lobby in that state was both uncomfortable and unnecessary. I strongly recommend that VOILA Health Tourism work with the hotel to arrange better support for patients in those critical early days. By day five, it’s manageable and I was able to take care of myself.
Results and Recovery
Now, ten days post-op, I’m happy with the results. The incisions are tiny—less than a centimeter each—and I’m confident the scars will fade completely. Considering the multiple areas I had treated (stomach, back, arms, and hips), the minimal scarring is impressive.
The lymphatic drainage massages were crucial for my recovery. I booked five sessions with the physiotherapist, who was very skilled and focused on reducing swelling and making me more comfortable. I would highly recommend these massages, as they made a significant difference in how I felt post-surgery.
I was also pleasantly surprised by how quickly I regained mobility in my arms. Despite the swelling, I was able to lift light objects like my suitcase within a few days, which was reassuring.
On my last day, I had a quick check-up with Dr. Furkan. He was calm, attentive, and reassuring, explaining that the swelling would continue to subside over the next few weeks. It was a simple yet professional way to wrap up the process, and I left feeling confident about my recovery.
Dr. Furkan is an experienced and attentive surgeon who delivered exactly what I wanted. The nurses, especially Irem, İram, and Sheyda, were incredible and made my recovery much easier with their kindness and care. Also much love to the nurses in the hospital. Angels
While the first few days were tough, I’m confident the results will continue to improve. If you’re considering any body contouring or fat injections, I highly recommend VOILA Health Tourism and Dr. Furkan. If I decide to have another procedure in the future, I’ll definitely return to him.
Hi, my name is nancy and I come from London for my procedure with doctor Forkan. From the first to the last day of procedure, everything 5 stars! Feel so comfortable, nurses come in a second to help. I would really recommend this place to people and before I go, I wish I had more treatments here. Maybe next year I’ll come back for my sister in law’s tummy tuck. It feels like your a baby in safe hands in the hospital
Ich wurde am 25.12.2024 operiert von dr Furkan Certel und bin sehr sehr überrascht von dem Ergebnis was ich bis jetzt habe. Er hat meinen Erwartungen übertroffen und ich habe mir nicht gedacht dass er aus meinen Körper so ein krasses Ergebnis bekommt. Er ist ein Seher herzlicher Arzt. Sein Team ist sehr Aufmerksamkeit immer für einen da. Traumhaft alles
The service and quality were excellent. I really liked the doctor and his approach to work. All the nurses were very friendly and responsible. The only downside was the hospital staff right after the surgery. They didn’t monitor the IVs, often forgot to leave the call button, and I had to do everything myself. Thank you very much.
I am extremely happy with the result of my breast augmentation, followed by a facelift and my liposuction. Doctor Mehdi did an excellent job. The whole team was very kind and attentive, I highly recommend them with my eyes closed, very high-quality care, which did me a lot of good morally
Ich bin so froh mich entschieden zuhaben zu Voila zu gehen!
Das ganze Team war sehr zuverlässig, hilfsbereit und sehr nett. Da ich eine transfrau bin und schon negative Erfahrungen gemacht hatte , aber dort hatte ich keine homophonie
gemerkt also wirklich alles sehr toll ! Besonders wohl habe ich mich bei Melek und Irem Gefühl , aber trotz allem waren alle wirklich toll ich würde mich immer wieder in die Händen der Krankenschwestern begeben 🙂
Ein großes Dankeschön an alle Beteiligten, die die Reise so angenehm wie möglich gestalten haben.
Canan – du bist so eine liebenswerte und empathische Person. Du hast mir so ein sicheres und aufgehobenes Gefühl gegeben. Danke dafür. Danke , dass du mich immer so schnell wie möglich über alles informiert hast und meine Reise so angenehm gestaltet hast.
An die andere Canan bitte ausrichten, die mich am OP-Tag begleitet hat – ich bin dir unglaublich dankbar, weil du mich so schnell auf andere Gedanken bringen konntest und ich echt so kurz davor war einen Nervenzusammenbruch zu bekommen Danke dass du mich begleitet und mit deiner Hand unterstützt hast.
An das „Nurse-Team“ einen großen Lob, dass IMMER jemand und schnell erreichbar war. Auf euch war immer Verlass und auch hier war jede Einzelne unglaublich lieb.
Danke auch an den lieben Fahrer.
Zum Schluss ein Riesen Lob an Dr. Caner ausrichten. So motiviert wie sie am OP Tag waren, hat man ihre Leidenschaft für ihren Beruf schon förmlich gespürt. Sie haben eine ganz besondere Aura und Gott segne ihre Hände für die Arbeit die sie geleistet haben und weiterhin leisten werden. Abgesehen davon dass meine Nase noch sehr angeschwollen ist, bin ich sehr zufrieden.
Vielen Dank für diese Erfahrung. Würde ich jedem weiterempfehlen
I made my breast with Dr.Furkan he was great, such a talented doctor. Voila is like a family everyone is so close everyone is connected they were with me the whole tome they gave me a great care
I had lipo 360, arm lipo with skin tightening, tummy tuck and banana rolls lipo with doctor ekrem. No words can praise voila enough! Everything was sensational from my surgery results to treatment and care from dr ekrem and the nurses. 24 hour tending to my every need. I am extremely happy and grateful.
Hi, I had a 360 liposuction by Dr. Mehdi. It’s my second visit to Voila and I’m very happy. The doctor fulfilled my wishes and did a great job.
The service and the nurses were also fantastic and super nice. I would do it again at any time and can recommend Voila to everyone!
My experience with Dr. Furkan was amazing. After the operation the nurses took care of me whenever I needed assistance. I didn’t chase any language before or after the procedure.
Canan was great for someone coming from a German speaking country and made me feel less nervous before the surgery. The results are great and I am looking forward to see the final results.
Ich habe eine bbl mit 360 lipo bei dem arzt dr mehdi gemacht und bin hoch zufrieden!! bin gerade mal 3 tage post op und mir geht es schon sehr gut. Die Krankenschwestern sind alles sehr lieb und rund um die Uhr verfügbar. Man hat eine whatsapp gruppe wo man alle seine bedenken äußern kann. Besonders danke ich Canan und Reyhan die immer für mich da waren. Das Krankenhaus macht auf den ersten Blick einen etwas altmodischen Eindruck, aber auch dort waren alle super lieb und haben mir immer geholfen nur leider können die meisten dort kein englisch aber man konnte sich trotzdem gut mit google übersetzter verständigen. Das Hotel ist klasse, es ist sogar mit einer waschmaschine und küche! Bin mit meiner kleinen tochter hier und die Krankenschwestern sind alle immer sehr süß zu ihr. Obwohl alles noch geschwollen ist hat dr mehdi hammer arbeit geleistet, ist genau so wie ich es wollte.
Founded in 2021, the clinic may be relatively new, but its medical teams and coordinators boast extensive experience in their respective domains. Dr. Certel, a graduate of Istanbul University in 2009 with a specialization in Anaesthetic, Plastic, and Reconstructive Surgery, earned recognition from the European Board of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in 2016 with his EBOPRAS certificate.
In addition to Dr. Certel, the clinic collaborates with several contracted doctors, each a specialist in their fields, encompassing plastic surgery, ENT, Bariatrics, and IVF. The entire medical team, as well as the support staff at Voila Health Tourism, brings a wealth of experience to ensure comprehensive and proficient services.
While exploring Voila Health Tourism, we came across a collection of Before and After hair transplant pictures that effectively showcase the outcomes of their procedures. Regrettably, the provided information lacks details regarding the number of grafts employed to achieve these visible results.
The clinic specializes in Direct Hair Transplants (DHI) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedures, utilizing the advanced Sapphire FUE Transplant method.
In DHI (Direct Hair Implantation), a specialized tool, known as the Choi pen or implanter pen, is employed. This technique involves individually extracting hair follicles from the donor area, making it particularly advantageous for individuals in the early stages of hair loss seeking a protective solution through hair transplant surgery.
FUE Hair Transplant represents a minimally invasive approach aimed at achieving natural results. This technique involves densely implanting more hair, incorporating both single hair and multi-grafts. What sets the Sapphire method apart from standard FUE hair transplants is the use of a sapphire blade, proven to cause less tissue damage and facilitate faster healing.
The total cost of the package is contingent upon the specific procedure chosen and the number of grafts to be transplanted. To receive a quotation for a hair transplant Turkey package from Voila Clinic, prospective clients are required to furnish their details along with four head pictures. Following this, a consultant will craft a personalized package.
Typical inclusions in Voila Clinic Turkey packages consist of:
Before you can truly commit to a hair transplant it is important to understand hair loss.
