Why is Turkey the top choice for professional hair treatments?
Turkey is the world’s leading destination for hair transplants — thanks to government incentives and lower operational costs.
What that means for you: lower prices combined with the highest quality and the most advanced treatment methods. Benefit from the experience of top experts without compromising on results.
Your flight to noticeably fuller hair
At Elithair, we take care of everything for your perfect hair transplant — almost everything. For logistical reasons, you cover the cost of your flight.
Once we receive your flight confirmation, we reserve your appointment at the world’s largest hair clinic.
Even with the flight as your own expense, the total cost in Turkey remains far lower than in the US — at the highest quality.
Reducing the cost of a hair transplant: what are the options?
With Elithair, you can finance your hair transplant — either in flexible installments or through external lenders.
In most cases, insurance does not cover the cost. Exceptions can apply — for example, when hair loss is caused by an accident — and a coverage request can be successful.
Avoiding hidden costs: what to watch out for

If a quote seems too good to be true, examine it carefully and read patient reviews. Reputable clinics disclose their pricing and provide full transparency on what’s included.
A strong indicator of quality is a thorough hair analysis, which forms the basis for a personalized quote.
Protect yourself from hidden costs and disreputable providers by comparing prices and getting a comprehensive consultation.

FAQ
How much does a hair transplant cost?
Hair transplant cost is individual to every patient. The factors that most often influence the total price are the number of grafts being transplanted and the technique chosen.
We always use the modern FUE method (Follicular Unit Extraction) for extraction. Compared to the outdated FUT technique (Follicular Unit Transplantation), it leaves no unsightly linear scar when treating androgenetic alopecia.
Every patient receives a thorough consultation in advance and a no-obligation cost estimate.
Are prices different for men and women?
At Elithair, every patient — both men and women — receives hair transplant pricing tailored to their personal needs.
The cost of the hair transplant is calculated based on the number of hairs transplanted and the method used.
How long does the transplanted hair last?
A hair transplant delivers a lasting, satisfying result through transplanted hair follicles that last a lifetime. So you can view the cost of your hair transplant as a smart, effective investment.
Unlike topical hair-loss products, in most cases a single treatment of the bald areas is enough to restore naturally full hair.
Can I pay for the hair transplant in installments?
Yes — that’s possible. Through our in-house financing, we offer all patients 0% financing for the cost of their hair transplant.
You’ll get more details about financing options for your hair treatment during your no-obligation consultation with our experts.
