A Life-Changing Experience with Dr. Utkan — Exceeded Every Expectation
After countless hours researching and interviewing hair transplant clinics, I was beginning to lose hope. The clinics I encountered employed a revolving-door model — leveraging their doctors across multiple teams of technicians in a single day, and rushing through patients like parts on an assembly line. Some even refused to take my case, citing my age (62) and Norwood 4–5 classification as too advanced or “not ideal.”
The deeper I dug into the world of hair restoration — particularly the well-known hair mills of Türkiye — the more wary I became. Stories of overharvesting, excessive scarring, unsanitary conditions, extreme swelling, and impersonal service were common complaints. I wanted something different: skill, safety, and a team I could trust.
Enter Dr. Utkan and his extraordinary team.
Being referred to Dr. Utkan was a profound relief — like finally breathing after weeks of holding my breath. From the moment I made contact, it was clear this clinic operated in a league of its own. The entire office is devoted to one patient per day — a model that ensures undivided attention, meticulous care, and a level of craftsmanship that simply does not exist in larger, high-volume clinics.
Dr. Utkan and his team are tender, compassionate, and incredibly precise. Before a single incision was made, he and his lead technician spent nearly an hour designing my hairline — carefully analyzing an asymmetry in my facial structure and incorporating a beautifully natural-looking correction, including restoration of my temples. This level of artistry and personal involvement was far beyond my expectations. I cannot imagine a larger clinic would go to such lengths.
Dr. Utkan personally performed all 4,250 incisions — ensuring every follicle was placed to grow in the natural direction, replicating the original crown whorl and native flow of my hair. This is critical work, and not something to be delegated. His deep involvement throughout the day gave me complete peace of mind. They were also the only clinic I found that offered the latest in stem-cell treatment, as an option.
The clinic itself was pristine, with impeccable hygiene and a team that works like a family — calm, confident, and completely focused. Despite the high level of care, pricing was comparable to the larger clinics I had considered, yet the value I received was on an entirely different level.
Post-op care has also been excellent. Their patient portal is simple to use, and their communication has been proactive and reassuring. I experienced no swelling, infection nor scarring. I was grateful for minimal itching, and fast healing. Just two weeks post-op, scabbing was nearly gone. The harvest area soon looked completely normal — no visible thinning, no patchiness.
My procedure was performed on May 12, 2025, and now, just two months later, the results are progressing exactly as expected. I see healthy signs of growth and feel confident that the best is yet to come.
If you’re looking for a clinic that puts skill, integrity, and patient care above all else, look no further. Dr. Utkan and his team deliver a truly boutique experience with world-class results.
Book with 100% confidence. Your hair — and peace of mind — will be in the best hands imaginable.
