Turkey is a country that attracts many travellers, who come to enjoy the variety of its landscapes, its mild climate and its cities that are home to a rich historical heritage. But there is another reason why tourists have been coming to Turkey in recent years: the fight against baldness! Medical tourism in general has even become very popular. Combining tourism and beauty care is now possible and it would be a shame to deprive ourselves of it, especially when it happens in one of the most beautiful countries on the borders of Europe and Asia
Why go to Turkey for her hair problems?
If Turkey attracts for all that it has to offer from a purely tourist point of view, it has also become a territory that attracts many visitors who want to practice cosmetic surgery and hair transplants. Hair transplantation is a disorder that affects many people around the world, the vast majority of whom are men, but also women. For some people, hair loss is unbearable and very complicated to live with on a daily basis, but in Europe or the United States, hair transplantation represents a significant budget.
The advantages of opting for a hair transplant in Turkey are primarily financial. But this is not the reason for fearing botched work. The many clinics that offer this service perform quality work using two techniques, the Follicular Unit Transplant and the Follicular Unit Extraction. People are usually hospitalized for 4 days and the operation, under general anesthesia, lasts between 5 and 7 hours. It is estimated that 5,000 patients per year are hospitalized for a hair or beard transplant. The risk of failure is 2%. With such figures and undeniable recognition in the field, there is no longer any hesitation. A stay in Turkey is the ideal opportunity to make an appointment with a transplant expert and come back from your trip twice as satisfied!
Combining beauty care and tourism
Istanbul has several hundred establishments specialized in hair transplantation. The clinics offer packages that include the surgery, but also accommodation in a 5-star hotel, meals, logistics once on site and visits to the main sites of interest. And there is no shortage of them in Istanbul! This stay, which aims to eradicate hair problems, is also a great opportunity to stroll through the different districts of the city, including the authentic and particularly lively Vefa district. You then pass through the great bazaar and its maze of alleys dedicated to commerce. Jewellery, pottery, clothes, there is something to make people happy in a place where people like to chat, drink tea and read the newspaper. And then how to pass by the most beautiful mosques, Sainte-Sophie and the Blue Mosque, and palaces such as Dolmabahce, former residence of the sultans and true "Versailles" in Ottoman version. Before leaving, there is no shortage of people to take a cruise on the Bosphorus, the strait that connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara and which is also the border between Europe and Asia. Without forgetting the gastronomy, hummus, kofte, borek, blaklava and loukoum on the sweet side, there are a thousand and one flavors to discover in Turkey and to enjoy over a good tea. A trip to Turkey for a hair transplant seduces a growing number of people from Europe and the Middle East. And quality services in a country with countless riches still have many years to come.
