A decision before a trip

A useful plan starts with your donor area, not a sales target.

A high graft number is not automatically a better plan. The independent clinic first considers the pattern of hair loss, donor supply, age, health history and the coverage you want.

  • Seven clear photos. Show the full head in good light and sharp focus from about 12 inches (30 cm). If the scalp was shaved, allow at least two weeks of regrowth; beard assessment requires at least three days of growth.
  • A preliminary clinic answer. Suggested method, approximate graft range and whether an in-person evaluation appears worth pursuing.
  • No commitment at this stage. No consultation fee, clinic visit, test or deposit is required for the initial photo review.

Cost in context

Compare the full scope, not just the procedure line.

A published U.S. price range gives you a reference point. Your real comparison should also include graft scope, hotel, local transfers, aftercare, airfare and who will lead the procedure.

Published starting points

U.S. benchmark vs. Istanbul package

Bosley published typical U.S. range $4,400–$12,000 Technique, grafts and location vary
Flymedica-coordinated DHI package ≈ $3,962 €3,400 current published promotion · airfare excluded

This is a benchmark, not a savings promise. The services are not automatically like-for-like. The clinic must review your case, and the package scope should be compared in writing before you book.

How the figures were calculated

The euro prices come from Flymedica's current hair transplant page. The U.S. range is from Bosley's published cost guide. Dollar estimates use the ECB reference rate for September 9, 2026: €1 = $1.1652. Exchange rates and personal quotes vary.

Current published packages

Two options. The clinic recommends the method.

Both packages cover the standard three-day clinic program. A higher-priced technique is not necessarily the right one for your hair loss pattern.

A companion sharing your room, breakfast and listed transfers is currently €40 for the two-night stay; confirm this before booking. Payment at the clinic is in cash in euros, and €500 notes are not accepted. The clinic confirms candidacy, method, graft count and final price after review. The package can cover up to 5,000 grafts when the operator considers that number appropriate.

Method without the hype

FUE describes extraction. DHI describes placement.

These labels are often advertised as competing procedures. In practice, the clinic may combine FUE extraction with DHI implantation and select details around your donor area and design.

01

FUE

Follicular units are extracted individually from the donor area. The recipient sites and placement approach are planned separately.

02

DHI

Grafts are placed with an implanter pen. It can support controlled angle and direction, but the result still depends on planning, handling and patient factors.

03

No-shave DHI

The visible recipient area may remain unshaved. This can make the early stage less noticeable, but it is not suitable or necessary for every case.

Know who leads the procedure

İbrahim Koç is named before you decide.

Flymedica's current program states that İbrahim Koç personally conducts each Flymedica procedure at Ibrahim Koc Hair from beginning to end, assisted by his clinical team.

20+ yearsexperience in medicine stated in the published profile
15+ yearsfocused on hair transplantation
1 patient/daystated scheduling model for Flymedica patients

His published profile states more than 20 years in medicine and more than 15 years focused exclusively on hair transplantation. The independent clinic is responsible for medical qualification, treatment and all clinical decisions.

Ask for the name and role in writing. “Doctor-led” and “clinic-led” can mean different levels of involvement. Your written plan should say who evaluates you, designs the hairline, extracts grafts and places them.

Real published cases

Look for cases that resemble your pattern.

Hairline, crown and diffuse thinning are different planning problems. These patient images were supplied by Flymedica and published with consent.

Results vary. Photos do not predict your result. Donor supply, hair caliber, pattern, health, healing, treatment plan and continued hair loss all matter. Final assessment is commonly made around 12 months; crown growth can take longer.

A realistic recovery horizon

The trip takes days. Hair growth takes months.

Your clinic gives the instructions that apply to you. This general timeline helps set expectations, but it is not a promise of timing or outcome.

Days 1–15

Visible healing

Redness, scabbing and swelling can occur. Flymedica.pl states that scabs usually heal within 10–15 days; follow your clinic's individual instructions.

First two weeks

Care matters most

This is the key period for washing and protecting the grafts. Limit activity when possible and follow the clinic's work and exercise guidance.

Following months

Gradual growth

Density and texture develop over time. Continued natural hair loss may still affect untreated areas.

Around month 12

Result review

The clinic commonly reviews the result at about 12 months. The crown can require longer.

Is a photo review worth doing?

The answer depends on donor supply and expectations.

Worth assessing

  • You want to understand a receding hairline, crown loss or diffuse thinning.
  • You are willing to compare realistic coverage with the available donor area.
  • You want a named operator, package scope and process before buying flights.

Needs careful clinic review

  • You expect unlimited density or a guaranteed result.
  • Your donor area may be limited or you have had a previous transplant.
  • You have an active scalp condition, significant health history or medications that may affect treatment.

Frequently asked questions

Does Flymedica perform the hair transplant?

No. Flymedica provides information, communication and travel coordination. Qualification, treatment, prescriptions and medical decisions are handled by the independent clinic in Turkey.

How much does the package cost?

Flymedica.pl currently lists the promotional DHI package at €3,400 and no-shave Long DHI at €3,600, with €4,110 displayed as the regular comparison price for each. Dollar figures use the ECB reference rate of September 9, 2026. The clinic confirms the method, scope and final price after review.

What is included, and are flights included?

The published packages include the online consultation, VIP Istanbul transfers, blood tests, soft sedation before local anesthesia, the selected procedure, PRP, post-procedure supplies, two hotel nights with breakfast, an interpreter at every clinic visit, one trichoscopic exam in Poland and WhatsApp coordination for up to 18 months after treatment. International flights and travel to Poland for the trichoscopic exam are not included.

Can I bring a companion?

Yes. The current published supplement is €40 for the full three-day stay when the companion shares your room, breakfast and listed transfers. Confirm availability and the current amount before booking.

Will I need to shave my head?

Standard DHI normally involves shaving as instructed by the clinic. With Long DHI, the recipient area is not shaved, though donor-area preparation may still be necessary. The clinic determines what is feasible for your case.

How many grafts can be transplanted?

The published package can cover up to 5,000 grafts per procedure, but that is a limit, not a target. The operator selects a graft number that protects the donor area and fits the treatment plan.

When will I see the final result?

Growth is gradual and individual. Temporary shedding can occur before new growth. The clinic typically assesses the result around 12 months, while crown growth may take longer. No exact density or outcome can be promised.

How is the clinic paid?

The current published information says payment at the clinic is made in cash in euros and €500 notes are not accepted. Confirm the amount, method and receipt details with the coordinator before travel because payment rules can change.

Does the transplant stop future hair loss?

No. Untreated native hair can continue to thin, and not every transplanted graft necessarily survives. The clinic may discuss maintenance treatment when medically appropriate. Ask about the long-term plan, not only the procedure.

How does the guarantee work?

A claim can be submitted from month 12 through month 18 with current full-scalp photos. İbrahim Koç assesses the documentation and technical feasibility. If approved, the corrective procedure itself is complimentary; return flights, accommodation and airport transfers remain your cost. The terms also require scheduled photos, compliance with clinic instructions and prescribed maintenance therapy when not medically contraindicated. Untreated areas and natural future loss are excluded. Read the full written conditions before booking.
