As seen in:
How many operations are performed each day?
At Elithair, we spend around 10 hours with each patient. Thanks to our medical team of over 500 specialists, we are able to perform around 80 hair transplants each day – making us the market leader in Europe.
This high number of operations is no coincidence, but rather the reason for our exceptional quality.
Specialised experts for every step:
We do not have all-round doctors working on all processes. Instead, we have teams that spend the entire day perfecting their specific area – e.g. graft counters, extraction experts, DHI specialists or our own anaesthesia team for the Sleep-Deep method.
Maximum routine & experience:
Due to the enormous number of patients, we have seen every conceivable hair situation. This means we are familiar with all eventualities and can make the best possible decision for each patient.
Modern procedures at no extra cost
Systems such as our Pre-Test-System or the Sleep-Deep method require doctors from different specialist areas. In smaller clinics, this would be unaffordable and would mean prices of £10,000 or more. At our clinic, you benefit from these advanced methods at no additional cost – made possible by our size and specialisation.

How Much Does a Hair Transplant Cost?
- From consultation to aftercare,
everything is taken care of for you. - No hidden costs
- Tailored to your needs
Each year, prospective patients flock to Turkey to avail of high quality care for a fraction of the cost. At Elithair, you can be guaranteed European standards at a much lower price point.
Our costs include everything from the procedure itself, to your accommodation, VIP airport transfers, aftercare and thorough medical testing. The only thing you need to take care of is the flights.
Discover Our Advanced Hair Transplant Techniques
We believe that your care begins before you even arrive at our clinic. When you choose a hair transplant with us, you will receive a NEO FUE® kit to use prior to your procedure, to prepare your follicles and ensure better graft survival.
We understand that any surgical procedure can be nerve-wracking, which is why we use Sleep-Deep prior to anaesthesia for your comfort and relaxation. The result? A stress-free, painless experience.
The CHOI pen is our medical staff’s tool of choice for performing the most precise and natural-looking graft implantations. This technique allows for a bespoke hair transplant tailored just for you.

How Does Elithair Support Patients from Consultation to Recovery?
NEO FUE® Preparation
Before your procedure you will receive your NEO FUE® kit – It includes two bottles of the biotin-rich serum and a dermaroller. By applying the serum to your scalp using the dermaroller seven days before your procedure, and one day before your operation, your hair follicles can be in the best possible condition for extraction and implantation.
Pre-Test
Your free Elithair consultation is just the beginning. Once we’ve established that you’re a good candidate for hair transplantation, you’ll be subject to our Pre-Test-System ahead of your procedure. This six-step system will assess your health and your individual hair needs, ensuring the best possible outcome for your surgery.
In-Clinic Procedure
The day has arrived! At the beginning of your procedure you will be given our Sleep-Deep anesthesia for your comfort, after which your FUE team will begin extracting grafts from your donor area. Following a small break where you will be provided with a meal, the DHI team will begin the implantation process.
Recovery & Ongoing Support
Before departing Turkey, you’ll receive a thorough post-op consultation at our clinic. You will be given information on how to care for your hair in the weeks following your procedure, including what activities to avoid. With the Elithair App, you can avail of additional aftercare advice and assistance from anywhere in the world, at any time.
