I started playing with the idea of having a HT in 2023. In January 2024 I met a guy at work who referenced the Vera Clinic in Istanbul. With a lot of hype I started researching about HTs. The more I dig in the more I become aware what could wrong and how difficult it is to find a proper clinic. There are just too many clinics in Istanbul all promising the same being the best. Well, after some investigation, I found out that the Vera Clinic was rated very well on Youtube by Doctor Gary Linkov and Let’s get hair. With the extra real references from work to whom I personally spoke to I was confident enough to get the show started. At that point (end of January), I already had asked multiple clinics and the Vera Clinic cared much more about me than others. I wanted to have an appointment as soon as possible to be ready for the summer . Honestly, I was kinda surprised I could get my HT on the 5th of February, which was also a bit scary.
I went to Istanbul a few days before the surgery to explore the city a bit. Guys, Istanbul is simple and freaking awesome. Just get some money and enjoy the vibes of Bosporus! On the third day, the shuttle service picked me up from my Airbnb to bring me to the hotel. The next day I was picked up for the surgery on time and everything went very quickly. In the clinic Feyza introduced herself to me as my personal translator. She guided me quickly, thoroughly, and adequately through the whole procedure. Firstly, doctors had a quick look at my head clarifying what is possible to do. Next, a hairline was drawn and corrected in the way I wanted it to have. Afterwards, I got my hair trimmed and the surgery started. They began with the anesthesia and then with the extraction of the grafts. Next, I was still not completely agreeing with the doctors advice how much grafts should be transplanted where but I had to decide before the doctor would prepare the transplanted area. At that point, I find it very crucial that Feyza helped me a lot to communicate with the doctor asking him for his advice on different options where to put the extracted grafts in. After a couple of minutes of discussion hearing his expertise I went for a way I was satisfied with. From this point on I just had to wait 5 extra hours lying lazy on the chair and enjoying the professional surgery. After the surgery, the shuttle drove me to the hotel, I ate a lot and slept for a couple of hours before going to the clinic again for a hair wash. Second day was very easy, nearly no pain at all and Feyza was also there helping me again. Washing was simple and after a couple of talks with others and the two Oxy Cures I flew back home.
Looking back, I have to say the whole process the Vera Clinic is providing is just astonishing. Everything is super automated, well defined and performed on such a professional level with so much experience, I really doubt any kind of doctor in Germany could do a better job even for 10x more money. All my barriers are completely gone nowadays and I am very happy that I decided to go there for a HT. It was so simple and easy. I kinda don’t know why I hesitated for a while at all. Also the post operation rules they provide work super well for me and I enjoy seeing my hair growing every single day.
At the end, I have a good advice for all the people going there for a surgery: everything is possible there and the stuff perfectly knows their job! The only thing you need to know upfront is what you really want! Keep in mind, you will get what you ask for and if it’s possible. Therefore, research to get a feeling what can be done in which way. The Vera Clinic cares a lot about the donor area and won’t perform any surgery that could harm it (my donor area looks really amazing). Don’t expect magic but expect high professionals and very good treatment!
Once again, thank you so so much for such a great experience and service! Special thanks go to Feyza who really made a difference there. Keep it up like that guys !
