Hair loss and male pattern baldness are issues that many men face as they age and can have a negative impact on self-confidence. In the UK, around 40 per cent of men will experience them to some degree by the age of 35, rising to around 50 per cent by the age of 50 – and by the age of 60, more than 66 per cent hundred of men will be dealing with significant hair loss.
Genetic predisposition, hormonal changes and lifestyle influences are some of the most common causes of male pattern baldness, or androgenetic alopecia as it’s scientifically known – which means, for the most part, it’s inevitable. But thankfully, it is no longer a condition that men have to live with.
Although early hair transplant procedures left something to be desired in terms of results, advances in science and technology have changed things dramatically since then, with the latest innovations making it possible to successfully restore a full head of hair to its former glory.
Although there are many clinics offering the treatment here in the UK, Turkey has built a strong reputation that has made it the first choice for hair transplant procedures, with experienced professionals, luxury clinics and favorable prices all leading to a medical boom. tourism in the country specifically for this treatment.
The hair transplant clinic of Dr. Emrah Cinik in Istanbul is one of the most sought after and has established itself as a top destination for people looking for effective hair restoration treatments, with a strong focus on patient satisfaction and state-of-the-art technology, and a team of highly skilled professionals.
World-class expertise and credentials
The founder of the clinic, Dr. Cynic, brings with him a wealth of experience and expertise to his practice, having graduated from Uludağ University School of Medicine and continued to dedicate his career to aesthetic medicine – more specifically, hair restoration. Never one to rest on his laurels, he makes it a priority to continue to learn and evolve to ensure the clinic consistently delivers the most outstanding results possible, and by staying abreast of the latest developments in hair transplant technology, he has ensured that patients always receive the most effective and modern treatments available.
Advanced techniques
No two patients are the same and each has their own challenges and unique set of needs, which is why at Dr. Cinik, a variety of hair transplant techniques tailored to each patient are also offered.
The two main methods offered are Follicular Extraction (FUE) and Direct Hair Implantation (DHI).
The FUE technique involves extracting individual hair follicles from a donor area – usually at the back of the head – and implanting them into areas of thinning or baldness. A minimally invasive technique that requires only a short downtime afterward, it leaves no linear scars, making it a popular choice among eligible candidates.
But some may require (or prefer to have) the DHI technique to get the results they want. More advanced version of FUE, a specialized tool used to implant hair follicles directly into the scalp without making previous incisions. This technique allows for greater precision in the placement of hair follicles, resulting in a more natural looking hairline and thicker hair growth.
Integrated patient care
While the clinic’s cutting edge treatments are of course one of the main reasons Dr Cinik has become so popular with men seeking hair restoration treatment, it is also Dr Cinik’s understanding that tradition is just as important. Patients receive comprehensive patient care and a luxurious experience throughout, starting from the initial consultation to post-operative follow-up. Each patient’s journey begins with a detailed consultation to assess hair loss and discuss the most appropriate treatment options, offering a personalized approach that ensures each patient receives a customized treatment designed to align with their specific needs and goals.
World-class treatments require world-class facilities and the clinic certainly delivers this, with the use of state-of-the-art equipment ensuring a comfortable and safe experience for patients and the clinic’s calming aesthetic ensuring they feel instantly relaxed and in safe hands.
The medical team, led by Dr. Cinik, is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of hygiene and patient care throughout the process, making the experience as stress-free as possible from start to finish.
Special post-operative support
Patients at the clinic are not just sent on their way and wished good luck once the procedure is complete, there is also an emphasis on recovery and post-operative care – both critical components of a successful hair transplant and essential to ensure the best possible results. The clinic provides thorough aftercare instructions and regular follow-ups to monitor the patient’s progress and ensure any problems can be addressed early. Ultimately, it’s about ensuring that the transplant area heals optimally so patients can enjoy a fully restored head of hair as quickly as possible, and although results don’t happen overnight and take some time and patience, with the clinic’s considered approach, his track record is consistently excellent. Patients are instructed on how to care for their new hair transplants themselves, as well as what to expect during the recovery period so there are no surprises along the way.
