1Cost and package

How much does a beard transplant cost in Turkey?

At Milano Clinic in Istanbul a beard transplant costs from €1,600, the same price for FUE and DHI. Your final quote depends on the areas you want to fill and on your donor area, which we assess from your photos before you travel.

What is included in the package?

The package includes the consultation and beard line design, PRP treatment, the aftercare shampoo set, medication, airport and clinic transfers, an English-speaking interpreter and WhatsApp follow-up.

What is not included?

Flights and the hotel are not included. We recommend 3 nights in Istanbul and can help you book a hotel.

Can I fill only the moustache or a few patches?

Yes. The moustache, sideburns or single patches can also be filled; the price depends on the extent, which we set from your photos.

2Your trip to Istanbul

How long do I need to stay in Istanbul?

You stay 3 nights in Istanbul. This covers the procedure and a check-up before you fly home.

How is the procedure done?

Follicles are usually taken one by one from the back of the head and placed in the beard area under local anaesthesia. With FUE fine channels are opened first; with DHI a Choi pen implants the grafts directly.

How many grafts do I need?

A full beard often uses about 1,500 to 3,000 grafts, single patches far fewer. The exact number depends on the result you want and your donor area.

3Recovery and results

When can I shave again?

Do not shave the beard area for about 10 days. Small crusts and redness usually settle within the first week to 10 days.

When does the new beard grow?

Most transplanted hairs fall out between weeks 2 and 8, which is normal. New growth starts after about 3 months and the final result shows after 9 to 12 months.

What are the risks?

Temporary swelling, redness and crusts are common; infection, small spots where grafts were placed and less growth than expected are possible. Results vary from person to person.

4How to start

What should I send for a quote?

Send photos of your face from the front and both sides, plus a photo of the back of your head, by WhatsApp. Mention any illnesses and medication so suitability can be assessed before you travel.
