What to Expect From a Hair Transplant in Turkey vs the UK

As a doctor practising in the UK, I regularly speak with patients considering travelling abroad—often to Turkey—for a hair transplant. While the lower cost is an understandable attraction, the clinical reality is more nuanced. There are critical differences between the experience, safety profile, and long-term outcomes of undergoing a hair transplant in the UK compared to Turkey.

In the UK, a Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) transplant typically involves detailed consultation, careful donor area planning, and procedural oversight by a GMC-registered surgeon. The standards set by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and General Medical Council (GMC) are stringent. Clinics are regularly inspected, and medical professionals must comply with robust ethical and clinical guidance. At My Hair UK, for example, FUE procedures are carried out with strict attention to patient selection, follicle viability, and graft density planning. Follow-up care is structured and personal. Prices in the UK generally range from £2,499 for smaller procedures to £4,899 for larger sessions of up to 3,500 grafts.

By contrast, Turkey has become a global hub for cosmetic surgery tourism, with hair transplants being the most commonly sought procedure. The pricing is significantly lower—often between £1,500 and £2,000 for large sessions. This cost difference is primarily due to lower wages, less regulatory overhead, and a higher volume, production-line model used by some clinics. While there are experienced surgeons practising in Turkey, many clinics delegate the majority of the surgical work to technicians, which raises concerns regarding surgical skill, sterility, and graft survival. A 2019 article in the Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery reported increased complications in patients treated at overseas clinics, particularly when non-medically qualified personnel performed the extraction and implantation steps PMID: 31772434.

Patients returning from Turkish clinics often report a lack of post-operative support, language barriers, and difficulty obtaining revision procedures if the outcome is unsatisfactory. Scarring, poor graft placement, and overharvesting are not uncommon complications when technician-led surgeries are performed without adequate medical supervision.

The decision ultimately hinges on more than cost. A UK-based procedure offers transparency, regulatory protection, and continuity of care, which may translate into higher graft survival rates and safer outcomes in the long term. The lower upfront price of a transplant abroad can come at the expense of post-operative recovery, ethical oversight, and—most importantly—clinical safety. The financial and emotional costs of a corrective procedure are not insignificant. Before committing, ask yourself: will you have access to the surgeon after the procedure if something goes wrong? In the UK, that reassurance is built into the process.
