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!

Very happy with academy clinic as a whole. From stepping of the plane right until the end. The staff have been amazing and helped me every step of the way. If I needed anything they responded to me very fast and helped with whatever I needed.

Excellent customer care from Nesrine and Miray. I am very happy with service I received- my new nose looks amazing. Nurse Team was always available and ready to assist. Nesrine who was my medical coordinator went above and beyond to help me out, she even done shopping for me when I couldn’t go out from the hospital! I felt like I was a part of a family rather than just a client. Everyone was professional and so supportive. I will definitely be coming back to academy clinic in the future! Thank you
Debbie B.
I would like to firstly thank aleyna , irem and Nesrine for all their amazing support help and although so friendly but very professional. They made me feel part of The Badge family .. I also want to thank wonderful surgeon Muhammad Eren Șimșek he has done amazing. Feel a million dollars no pain but perfection. My second time now at the Badge and I will most certainly be back. Again from the beginning in contact with admin to flights to the driver to the hotel.. everything runs so smoothly and the people are just gorgeous. I literally will miss them. I’m so happy with the whole process❤️❤️❤️❤️

academy clinic get 5 stars and more for me. In my opinion there is no other clinic I would go to now. This is my second visit to academy clinic. I previously came for breast augmentation in 2020 so when I decided I wanted a tummy tuck and lipo, there was no other clinic I trusted. Dr Burak and his team are absolutely brilliant at what they do and I’m so impressed with my latest procedure. Their aftercare team is second to none and nothing is too much for these guys. They definitely go that extra mile to make you feel welcome and at ease. Love you guys, can’t wait to come back next year for even more procedures! ❤️❤️
Paulina U.
I highly recommend academy clinic. From the beginning to the end they were really supportive! All nurses and doctors above and beyond professional. Me and my partner were treated like in 5 star hotel. I got much more than I expected. So happy to be here for my breast uplifting and enlargement. I wish to give them 10 out of 5 if I could. Really nice experience and I felt really safe. I just want to say thank you to all personel from a academy clinic!!
Catalin A.
A great service with amazing people. At the beginning i was quite nervous for the fact that my teeth were a mess. I was always afraid of dentists but their excellent way of working made me confident that i am in very good hands. Thank you and i will definitely see you again.🙏

Not sure where to start! 10 out of 10. academy clinic is the best thing that ever happened to me. Surgeons are professional and can’t say thank you enough to the nurses at the hospital and the hotel. They were caring and helpful. My coordinator Miray was explaining everything in detail so I was aware of everything. She still messaging me after I was back in UK. 🥰 Can’t thank this team enough! Thank you ❤️🙏
Saipriya H.
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.

I recently underwent a breast lift with implants and 360/back liposuction at academy clinic, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience.
First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to Nurses Irem and Aleyna. Their friendliness and willingness to help made me feel at ease throughout my stay. Their professional care truly stood out.
A huge thank you to Dr. Mete for his incredible work. His expertise in performing my procedures was evident, and I am thrilled with the results after 3 days. His attention to detail and commitment to patient satisfaction are commendable.
I also want to thank Nesrine for her excellent organizational skills. She took care of everything, from coordinating my stay to managing transfers between the hotel and hospital, ensuring that everything ran smoothly.
The team at academy clinic is remarkably organized and dedicated to their patients’ well-being. I wholeheartedly recommend academy clinic to anyone considering these procedures.
Peter D.
A life changing procedure for me that was made a lot easier with the help of academy clinic. Fantastic facilities with the amazing doctors and nurses who helped me recover from my gastric sleeve surgery. Will always be grateful
Nicole S.
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.
Dominique F.
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 ❤️

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.

My whole journey with academy clinic was very professional, everyone was very friendly and helpful, from the first consultation and later on site in turkey.

A hair transplant is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which healthy hair follicles are taken from a donor area (usually the back or sides of the scalp) and transplanted into areas experiencing thinning or baldness. The transplanted follicles continue to grow naturally, providing long-term coverage and density.
Hair transplants are commonly performed to:
Restore receding hairlines
Increase density on the crown or top of the head
Correct thinning in the temples
Provide natural-looking, permanent hair restoration
How is Hair Transplant Performed?
There are two main modern techniques used at Academy Health:
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction): Hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area and implanted into the recipient site. This method leaves minimal scarring and ensures fast healing.
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation): A specialized Choi Pen is used to implant follicles directly into the scalp without prior incisions. This technique allows for greater precision and higher density.
Both methods are performed under local anesthesia and take 6–8 hours on average, depending on the number of grafts.
Advantages of Hair Transplant
Permanent and natural-looking results
Minimally invasive with quick recovery
Restores youthful appearance and self-confidence
Hair can be cut, styled, or dyed naturally after growth
Effective for both men and women experiencing hair loss
Recovery After Hair Transplant
Most patients return to normal daily activities within 2–3 days. Mild redness, swelling, or scabbing may occur, but these side effects disappear within 1–2 weeks.
Academy Health provides patients with detailed aftercare instructions, medical support, and follow-up care to ensure optimal outcomes.
Risks and Considerations
Hair transplants are generally safe when performed by experienced surgeons. Minor risks may include temporary swelling, redness, or follicle shock loss. At Academy Health, these risks are minimized through advanced techniques, sterile environments, and personalized care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Considering a Hair Transplant? Find answers to some of our most frequently asked questions here.
Compared to the UK, you can get considerably lower prices for hair transplant operations in Turkey. But the real benefit is not only the financial advantage. Being a world-renowned destination for health tourism in the world, Turkey offers exceptional services in hair transplantation thanks to the meticulously trained and well-experienced professionals in the field.
The procedure is practically painless and causes less irritation than a tattoo. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia so that the patient can relax, listen to music, watch TV, enjoy a light lunch and even nap during the procedure.
There will be no scarring or mark after the DHI technique, only a slight reddening in the donor area, which will be completely relieved over the course of a week. After finishing the procedure, the donor area or the area where the hair is removed will be bandaged to prevent any infection. This can be removed the next day.
Small groups of hair are harvested in a larger area around the head and then implanted into the desired site during the procedure. The surgeon will make tiny holes with a needle in the area of your scalp that’s receiving the hair transplant. They will gently place hairs in these holes, with the process repeated until the surgeon has enough follicles to cover the treatment area. A hair transplant session can take six hours or more.
When you choose our hair transplant service in Turkey, your package encompasses more than just the procedure itself. It comprises a comprehensive experience, featuring expert hair transplantation, luxurious accommodation, complimentary transfer services in Istanbul, and a range of post-surgery care products to ensure your comfort and recovery.
Reaching out to us at Badge Hair is easy. You can connect with us through multiple convenient channels, including by phone at +90 (535) 394 09 09, or by dropping us an email at mail@academyhealth.net
Your first consultation with one of our experienced surgeons is entirely complimentary. We believe in providing you with the opportunity to discuss your needs and expectations without any financial burden. From there, you can decide if you want to go ahead with your hair transplant procedure.
At our hair transplant clinic, we offer the possibility of up to 4000 grafts in a single session, typically completed in one day. However, this number may vary based on individual factors such as the extent of your receding hairline and the availability of donor grafts. Rest assured, our primary focus is to preserve the donor area for your long-term satisfaction.
Yes, we offer a 10-year warranty for the transplanted hairs. This reflects our commitment to delivering lasting results and your satisfaction with our services. If, for any reason, you need to talk to us about your transplant post-surgery, simply give our friendly team a call.
It is perfectly normal to experience some graft loss in the early stages following the procedure. However, be assured that the newly implanted follicular units will regrow, resulting in the fuller, natural-looking hair you desire. Graft loss is not a cause for panic, so give your hair time to settle after the procedure.
According to feedback from our past patients, the hair transplantation procedure is typically quite painless. You may experience a mild itching sensation on the scalp during or after the surgery, which is generally well-tolerated.
At Badge Hair, we primarily employ the FUE and DHI Sapphire methods for hair transplantation, which leave no visible scars discernible to the naked eye. Unlike some older techniques, such as FUT, which are not utilized by premium hair transplantation clinics and can result in visible scarring.
You can confidently return to your social life approximately three days after the procedure. Our goal is to ensure a smooth and swift recovery process, allowing you to enjoy your revitalized appearance and newfound confidence.
