In recent years, the demand for hair transplants has increased significantly, but unfortunately this increase is accompanied by an increasing number of malpractices and misinformation. Our clinic, a renowned international center for hair transplantation, feels the urgent need to raise public awareness of the dangers of carelessly performed hair transplants. We want everyone to be aware of the risks of ‘too good to be true’ offers.
In our clinic, we are regularly confronted with harrowing stories of people who suffer serious psychological and emotional consequences from a failed hair transplant. These patients suffer particularly badly from a previous, incorrectly performed procedure. Some of them are hindered in their daily lives, both professionally and socially. This is not just a personal setback for those involved: it is a social problem that we can no longer ignore.
We are often asked about ‘the risks of hair transplants in Turkey’. We want to emphasize that we are not against Turkey as a location; there are skilled hair transplant surgeons working there. Our concern is about the dangerous malpractices that unfortunately occur all too often, all over the world. The recent case of a real estate agent who performed a hair transplant, with a fatal outcome for the patient, underlines the seriousness of this issue. It is necessary to consciously choose a recognized specialist with the right medical experience and expertise.

Why are we informing you?
As an internationally recognized hair transplant clinic, we receive requests every week from people seeking help in repairing previous, incorrectly performed hair transplants, namely repair hair transplants. Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to help everyone “in time”. The demand for corrective treatments exceeds our capabilities, and this is a warning signal. The time to take action is now: we want to raise awareness and encourage people to inform themselves well.
Educate Yourself
Hair transplantation is a major, irreversible decision that requires careful preparation. It is essential to know in whose hands you are putting yourself. Your donor hair is limited – you only have one “donor bank”. There is currently no technology to clone hair, which means that the available hair must be carefully used with an eye to the future.
It is important to be aware of the following factors:
- The current hair loss pattern and future hair loss.
- The family history of hair loss.
- The age, lifestyle, and expectations.
- The nature and health of the existing hair.
- Don't fall for offers that seem too good to be true: cheap will become expensive.
- Question who is treating you, what expertise this person has and whether the expected results are realistic. Our message is clear: spend your valuable donor hair wisely and choose quality and certainty. Let yourself be informed by reliable and recognized experts in the hair transplant industry.
We are here to help and to point out the risks of hair transplants without proper education. Together we can ensure that more people make the right choice and that tragic stories like the one recently in the news do not happen again.
