This is my second time with academy clinic and from the aiport to the hostpital to now leaving back to my hotel. I have felt comfortable and safe the whole time.the nurses and doctors answered any questions i had and i feel very happy already with my results. I will definatley continue to recommend academy clinic. Thank you for everything!
I did the hair transplant. Everyone was super cool and nice. My Coordinator Nisrine walked me through all of the steps so I knew what to expect through the procedure and for my after care. The whole process they make sure you are comfortable and accommodated. The hotel they put you up at is really nice, the Free Breakfast Buffet is the BOMB and so is the room service menu. I had a nice stay and my procedure was as painless as possible. 10/10 Would recommend to a friend!
I had a hair transplant a week ago and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help me through the process than academy clinic. The transfers from the airport to the hotel to the clinic were great.
From the initial enquiry, through booking, surgery and post operative care badge were extremely helpful and reassuring.
The hospital was clean and comfortable and were accommodating to both myself and my companion.
Dr Mete listened to what I wanted whilst offering his professional opinion and giving me the results that I was looking for.
My coordinator Şevval were always on hand regardless of the time of day, to answer any queries, concerns or basic questions I had. No query was to pig or to small.
My hotel nurse Beyza was extremely friendly and so helpful in my aftercare. Again no query or request was to big or to small. She checked on me a few times a day each day and was always available through the WhatsApp group. She made my after care stay so much more comfortable.
Even after I have returned home they are still in contact to offer support and ensure everything is going well.
I would definitely recommend academy clinic for anyone seeking cosmetic surgery. I myself was recommended badge and I am so glad I chose them. My procedures were a fraction of the cost of the UK but this did not take away from the level of care and support that was provided
I went to Turkey to get my new healthy Hollywood smile. academy clinic was recommended to me and my initial experience with Miray was very positive. On my arrival I met Nesrine – my medical coordinator. She took excellent care of my dental journey. She was professional, always available and ready to help me. Nesrine went above and beyond to assist me and I am forever grateful for her effort. I would recommend academy clinic to everyone. Their customer service and care are exceptional. Thank you Nesrine and Miray!
Honestly could not knock my experience
Honestly could not knock my experience. Flying solo I was very nervous. I had Nesrine guide me through it all who is an amazing coordinator. I got to the hospital and again was very nervous but was soon reassured. I then got settled in a lovely hospital room. I had bloods taken, chest x-ray and an ultrasound scan on tummy. I then met with my doctor Professor Dr. Cengiz Eriş who was very knowledgeable and made me at ease. I then got given the go ahead for Gastric sleeve surgery. It has been an experience and I’m
So glad to say a success. I was up walking a few hours after. Day 2 is probably the worst but once you get through it your on cloud 9. I met with my dietician and given all my protein shales and vitamins. Then got discharged day 3 post op. I got transferred to a beautiful hotel where I am relaxed and it’s beautiful. Thankyou for everything ❤️
My girlfriend had breast augmentation with Dr. Mete in May 2024, and it’s been 2 months. We really love the results. What a professional team! Thanks to my medical consultant, Joey, for helping us through everything.
Felt welcomed as soon as I arrived.
I had Dr mete who was absolutely lovely.
All the nurses have been great with me here! Clinic is so clean. Overall experience has been great.

Just had Gastric Sleeve Surgery and a Gastric Band removal surgery completed on 24/05/24 by Prof. Dr. Cengis Eris at the hospital in Istanbul. From start to finish the entire Badge team have been nothing short of amazing. From pick up at the airport to your return back home they have been in contact and making sure I fully understand what is happening and what to expect. My Co-ordinator Nesrine has been amazing. I traveled by myself and was worried this was going to be too much but the team at Badge really take fantastic care of you. If you are debating if this is right thing to do or if this is the right place to have your surgery I can’t stress enough just how amazing and resasurred the team has made me feel. Although I’m only really a couple of days out and will see the results over the next coming weeks and months. I am relatively pain free and able to manage my normal activities which surprised me but shows just great they are at what they do.
I wholeheartedly endorse this dental clinic for their exceptional patient-centered approach. Their quality of care is unmatched, accompanied by thorough explanations throughout the treatment process. They attentively address concerns, offer invaluable advice, and extend continuous support. Thanks to this clinic, my dental concerns are resolved, bringing immense happiness. I enthusiastically encourage everyone to experience their outstanding services!
academy clinic was amazing! I had nurses with me 24/7 who were there to help me understand what was happening during the procedure! Dr. Sarper was very kind and has done 100 liposuctions! He never made me feel uncomfortable and made sure I understood what was best for my body! Highly recommend!
I got a breast augmentation and otoplasty with Dr Mete. He was very friendly and gave me exactly what I asked for. I am very happy with my results so far. The nurses were also very friendly and helpful.
I had my rhinoplasty at this clinic and had a very positive experience. The staff were professional and supportive from the consultation through recovery, and everything was well organized. The surgeon explained the procedure clearly, and I felt comfortable and well cared for throughout. I’m happy with my results and would recommend this clinic to anyone considering rhinoplasty.
Personnel compétent à votre écoute. Très bonne organisation pour les transferts : aeroport-hotel-hopital. Parlent plusieurs langues différentes et répondent rapidement aux questions. Sont également présents lors de vos consultations avec vos différents médecins si vous ne parlez pas la langue. Je recommande
My experience with academy clinic has been amazing. The help and support I received both before and in Istanbul has been flawless. My coordinator Enes has been very helpful and answered all my questions. While I was in Istanbul my Coordinator Nebia has been extremely pleasant and made me feel welcomed. My surgeon Dr Mete has done a great job and for once when he asked if I had any questions I was speechless. My experience thus far has been amazing and I would definitely recommend academy clinic.
I am a patient from the UK who travelled to academy clinic in Turkey upon recommendations. The level of service from start to finish was 5 star. I had surgery done with academy clinic and everything from their part was so well planned out. Everyone representing the clinic was very friendly and took such good care of me. The communication was 5 star. As my surgery was a few days ago, i haven’t been able to see my final result but from what I have seen, I am extremely happy! Thank you academy clinic! I will be visiting again.
My experience with The academy clinic has been amazing- everyone that I have spoken to have been so kind, thoughtful and patient. I had a surgery in the UK 5 years ago and I am much happier with my result and the whole process this time around. I would recommend The academy clinic to anyone!
I had breast augmentation with academy clinic. The experience from start to finish has been very smooth. The hospital is very clean and staff as helpful as can be. Slight language barrier with some nurses but was fine overall. Very happy with my results and would recommend to anyone thinking about coming to Turkey for the same surgery.

Your dream appearance is closer than ever — guided by professionals and delivered through four simple, trusted steps.
A facial hair transplant is a cosmetic procedure that involves harvesting hair follicles from a donor area (typically the back of the scalp) and transplanting them into areas of the face that lack density or coverage. This procedure is commonly performed to enhance:
The transplanted follicles grow naturally over time, giving patients the freedom to trim, shave, and style their facial hair as desired.
The procedure typically follows the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method:
Donor Area Selection: Hair follicles are extracted individually from the donor area at the back of the head.
Follicle Preparation: Extracted grafts are carefully preserved to maintain survival rates.
Implantation: Tiny incisions are made in the facial area, and follicles are implanted at precise angles and directions to mimic natural hair growth.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and usually takes between 4–6 hours, depending on the number of grafts required.
Most patients experience mild redness and swelling for a few days after the procedure. Tiny scabs may form around the transplanted follicles but heal within 7–10 days. Patients can resume daily activities within 1–2 days, with full hair growth results becoming visible after 6–12 months.
Academy Health ensures a smooth recovery process with detailed aftercare guidance and continuous medical support.
Facial hair transplant is generally a safe procedure, but as with any surgery, minor risks exist, such as temporary swelling, redness, or mild infection. With Academy Health’s experienced surgeons and advanced facilities, these risks are minimized, ensuring patient safety and satisfaction.
