My surgery was very straightforward ,smooth but had strong pain next few days (which was normal) .I had liposuction done by Dr. Hakan, he was brilliant, explained everything in the consultation before surgery and what should I expect.
Before & after surgery a lady called Silin (she was great ) she kept checking I鈥檓 ok for few weeks even after I flew back home
Another lady met me at the hospital to check in, helped explaining the next steps before surgery , made me sign some papers and took rest of the payment required
…They were all great
Clinic Center is like a third party marketing company who arrange reservations with hospitals & doctors . they try to get you a good deal with and assist you while you stay in Turkey, Dr Hakan and Clinic centre agent spoke english (it鈥檚 very important you understand what鈥檚 going on there ) so it was really good for me.
You will find cheaper deals somewhere else , but bare in mind that you鈥檒l be risking your own body .. so be careful do your research ..
I would definitely recommend these guys as they were very professional and organised in what they do
,
Hospital was clean and the staff was helpful, thats why they assign you a host who helps you with translation and other stuff. Overall I'm happy and I can recommend clinic center to everyone for hair transplants.

Great company

Booking was easy, and I tried to check out as many reviews as I could. The reviews were mostly positive (some of the reviews looked a little "dodgy" which made me a little nervous, but I'm guessing they were written by people whom English wasn't their first language). The negative reviews that I remember were mostly because off the process (feeling intimidated during the procedure, people speaking Turkish and not understanding what was going on etc etc), there were a few negative reviews from Tummy Tucks going wrong, but I understand these all sounded like risks of surgery (especially in the overweight) so it didn't worry me too much – I was just concerned about it being legit as there were so many to choose from.
When I was picked up in the airport I shared the mini bus with another guy who said he knew 2 people who had used clinic centre and got good results, so that encouraged me quite a bit.
The procedure day itself was fine, I went in at 8am (ish – I forget really) but was advised no coffee or alcohol for a few days before (I broke this rule – me without coffee is NOT good) I think this may have been why I bled a lot during the procedure, and I think it took a bit longer because of this (about 9 hours in total). The translator stayed for the first hour or so, but then it was down to me, the doctor and nurse to figure things out – they spoke basic English and it was fine because I understood what was going on, but if I didn't work in this field I may have found things quite intimidating… (people coming in and out, commenting on the process etc etc)
I suffered virtually no pain, the local anaesthetic was painful to go in (which I expected) but this process took about 10mins, after this it was easy, if at times just a bit boring because it took so long. the doctor harvested the transplants, made the holes for the new hairs but the nurse assisting placed the new hairs – I had NO issue with this, it cuts costs and (I imagine) doesn't require intensive training (ie years of medical school) – I note some people took offence to this on some reviews – shrugs shoulders
After the procedure was done I was told no coffee or alcohol for 12 days, after the doctor saw the look of horror on my face she said 5 days would "probably be ok" – I lasted 2 hours without coffee (it was for the people around me not myself). Again, I think this is maybe why I bled more than I should have, but the end result was still good!
I went back after a few days for a hair wash and to be shown how to care for it myself, they encouraged me to take a video on my phone, but I never actually watched it again.
I went through ups and downs, after the initial buzz of going through the experience, then after a month or so I thought it had all gone wrong, it seems to grow more on one side then the other, then it seems to improve but still looked weird – I didn't really see what it was going to look like for at least 6 months, probably quite a bit longer. Now, almost a year later, I think it looks great, I'm really pleased with the outcome – but I'm glad I told friends/colleagues I was having it done – there is NO WAY I could have hidden what i'd done, it's so obvious, at least for a few months after!
So:
Pros:-
Cheap (I could never have afforded it in UK)
Istanbul is a wicked city, I stayed for longer with friends and got a week's holiday from it!
I'm really pleased with the outcome.
Cons:-
It would have been intimidating had i not understood what was going on
Aftercare/checkup is virtually nothing (although, I didn't have any problems/ask for any!)
They should have given extra dressings for the donor area – I "leaked" all over my pillow in the hotel

From my initial enquiry, until now, I have to say that everything has been great.
My coordinator Aykut has been amazing, and was always on hand to answer all questions I had – night & day & weekends also!
Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he works hard to provide a personable and professional service.
Yi臒itcan escorted me to the hospital and was great with dealing with all the admin. He gave me a lot of reassurance in prepping me for my surgery. He also visited me post op at my hotel to get some feedback, which I thought was really good!
Emel collected me from the hospital after my procedure and I honestly cannot praise her enough! She is just the sweetest! She was so kind, caring, compassionate & helpful.. She is the perfect person to collect you following surgery!
Iigin escorted me to my post op check-up, and again, he was so kind and genuine.
Aykut has checked in on me since returning home, and has also provided me with a nurse contact for any aftercare I may need – I have never received any such aftercare from other clinics abroad that I have visited!
The hosts at Clinic Centre are an absolute credit to them, and they should work hard to keep hold of such assets.
My surgeon was Dr Hakan G眉do臒an – What a talented surgeon he is! If I ever decide to have any more procedures in the future, I would not hesitate to use him again!
I had booked for an additional procedure on my eyes – which he very honestly said I didn't need. He could easily have done it, and taken my cash… That kind of honesty is rare in this competitive market!
Dr Hakan is an unbelievable surgeon, with exceptional people skills to match!.. I have recommended him to everyone I speak to, and already have friends booked in with him!
Heartfelt thanks to all at Clinic Centre!

Started looking into having a hair treatment for 10 years I looked at thickening shampoo etc and one day during my work in the NHS trust ( English review) I looked at my hair and said to myself that it …
I found this clinic as Brighton and Hove football team sponsor the clinic my local premiership football team.
Then got chatting on WhatsApp with (Aykut) from The clinic centre who explained so much information to me in a very professional and relaxed way. After that I sent some photos etc.. Over time I built up trust with him and went for it. He is brilliant at everything you need to know.
Booked flights gave them my flight number they (Aykut) booked the hotel and paid the deposit 拢150 I think.
Flew out 10 weeks later hotel is brilliant breakfast was massive great views looking over the city. On the day of the transplant 3000 grafts met (Saliha) who met me in the hotel and we travelled to The Clinic centre together great thing about my host she explained everything in English (as I'm a typical Englishman and know no other languages) she automatically read my mind and explained the situation and procedure in a professional manner that made me feel better right from the first few minutes.
The procedure 3000 hair grafts to my front and crown last 6 hrs the needles are the worst part but (Rojbin) my trichologist was so patient and yet again very professional with me and her experience made me relax during my time in the clinic.
The next day my hair was checked and washed with a month supply of foam spray shampoo and shampoo for the donor site
I'll post a photo on their Instagram site so you can check it spearallnutt on The clinic centre page
Many thanks to all the clinic centre team you've been stars

My rating to the Clinic Center in Istanbul is 5 star. The rating is for three things, First, 5-star rating for those people who I contacted first to inquire about my operation at the Clinic Center. Staff were very professional, quick in their responses and answers to all my inquiries and questions. very supportive and helpful. They clarified and explained me all I need to know in terms of my transportation, hospital, accommodation and the Doctor who will do the surgery. Simply they organized everything for my trip,
Secondly 5-star to the patient service coordinator who made sure my transport, accommodation and surgery appointments with the Doctor easy and smooth. She has been very supportive and caring till the last minute of our stay in Istanbul.
Thirdly, 5-star for the Hospital in which I had the operation done. The hospital is so clean, staff are very caring, gentle and helpful. The Doctor would deserve more the just 5-star rating. Dr Aydin is a professor in his field. He has a lot of experience which I experienced from my operation. After the operation which was a neck-lift and lower face lift I didn鈥檛 experience any of the side effects that most people experience after the operation like big bruising, tightness or tingling or different sensations such as burning or pulling or numbness. The only thing I experienced after the operation little bruising and swelling of my face that started to clear in 2 weeks鈥?time. My neck movement was flexible and normal.
I advise people want to do operations in Istanbul to contact the Clinic Center and they will make your trip easy and relaxed from A 鈥?Z. You also ask for Professor Doctor Aydin who is a great, highly experienced and gentle doctor.
Thank you all at the Clinic Center for all your arrangements and hard work to make my trip and operations easy, relaxed and soothing.

Cannot thank them enough for among my journey comfortable

Transfers between the airport and hotel was comfortable in a Mercedes Vito.
The hotel was relaxing and clean and the hotel staff were very helpful. The breakfast wasn't great but it was fine.
The clinic was well decorated and clean. The staff were friendly and professional, although most of them do not speak English which was a problem at times, but the our rep was there to help translate.
The operation was 5-6 hours so take some earphones to listen to music. I would also recommend you take shirts or zipped tops with you because after the operation it is difficult to take normal tops on and off.

I would like to highly recommend Clinic Center, I found out about them with a Google search, and lots of positive reviews from lots of patients caught my attention. I decided to have the free online consultation with them, they were absolutely professionals. I asked probably 100 questions and they answered all of them. After paying the deposit, my coordinator Asli took over and was extremely helpful, booking my hotel, airport transfer, arranging the pick up time for the surgery and making sure I was ok the whole time I stayed in Istanbul. Asli also reminded me of each of my appointments, my pick up time back to the airport (I completely forgot that I had one) and when I went to the hotel to ask about the shuttle to the airport they told me it鈥檚 going to be 鈧?5 which is expensive for Istanbul; a moment later Asli text me to remind me of my pick up time to the airport, and that it was included in the package as well, which was absolutely awesome.
I would like to also thank our first host Talha. He picked us up the day of the surgery and he stayed with us the whole time while the nurses were preparing me for the surgery. I was amazingly surprised that he stayed even after the surgery, and when my husband asked him to show him around the area, he was a great guide. He was highly professional, very intelligent and friendly, with a good sense of humor. Around the evening time when his duty finished, he still came to check on me after the surgery.
The next time I had a different host Emal, she was my host when I got released from the hospital, she鈥檚 a very nice, sweet and friendly. She was very helpful when we were asking her about places in Istanbul to see… Thanks to Emal as well.
And of course I would love to thank my doctor: Dr. Hakan Gundogan, he was such a professional doctor. I was very nervous before the surgery but he did such a good job reassuring me that everything was going to be ok. I didn鈥檛 feel any pain after the surgery, everything went so smooth, the nurses were checking on me 24 hours. The hospital was magnificent, very modern, very clean, I was very surprised, and the meals in the hospital were very healthy as well. After 6 days I met my doctor again, he took the splint off my nose and that鈥檚 the moment I saw my new nose and I absolutely loved it, the doctor has done such a good job and it looked more beautiful that I actually expected… Dr. Hakan Gundogan give me all the instructions I needed to follow and the Clinic Center will be following up with me for 1 year, which is fantastic!
If you are thinking about doing any kind of plastic surgery, I highly recommend Clinic Center, it鈥檚 incredible value for the price, I do not believe you could have a better experience if you spent 5 times the amount
