Not good results

Hi

My name is Shaik Irfan. I had a hair transplant in Royal Hair Istanbul on 28 Jan 2025 now four months completed and not seen any improvement in my hair and the result is very wrost as my donor are is also got impacted not getting the hair in my donor area and the implanted area. They are not professional and they charge extra money for medical kit which is not useful. I request to the people don’t go with hair transplant in Turkey specially with Royal Hair as results are not good it’s wasting money, health and time.

I request to Royal Hair Istanbul to reimburse my money as your treatment didn’t work.

Regards

Dear Patient,

Thank you for your feedback. We understand your concerns and would like to provide some clarification about the hair transplant process.

Please note that hair transplant results develop gradually over time and go through several natural stages. During the first month to the fourth month, it's common to experience what is known as "shock loss", where the transplanted grafts fall out before they begin to grow again. This is a normal and expected part of the recovery process.

You can typically expect to see initial visible results around the sixth month, with full and final results appearing between 12 to 14 months after the procedure. Patience is essential, and we are confident that the final outcome will meet your expectations and that hair density will continue to improve over time.

At Royal Hair Istanbul, we are dedicated to delivering the best care and outcomes for our patients. All procedures come with a guarantee certificate, underscoring our commitment to quality and long-term satisfaction.

Should you need any assistance or have questions about your recovery and progress, we warmly invite you to contact our Patient Support Team via WhatsApp or at 📧 info@royalhairistanbul.com. We are here to guide and support you every step of the way.

Warm regards,
Patient Support Department

My experience with Royal Hair

My experience with Royal Hair: We got off to a good start, although the program was modified along the way; it was 80% fulfilled.
RH could have had a more ergonomic operating table. They should also have at least one of the three nurses with basic English to answer questions along the way. We agree that the lunch break during the operation wasn't important. But the nurses should also have shown some empathy for the patient and pretended they wanted to leave as soon as the operation was over (they even left before me). The extra costs, while not mandatory, should also have been disclosed in advance: if the follicles were not reached in the nape of the neck, they could be removed from the beard or freckles, which was €250 in addition, and the after care kit was another €250.
I would add points if RH reported on possible side effects of anesthesia: head deformation, partial paralysis of the face (which can last up to 3 weeks after the procedure), thereby avoiding the scare that could remain like this permanently, or worsen.
The person who, in my opinion, stood out (via WhatsApp) was Sara, who not only responded immediately but was always very attentive and efficient. I didn't subtract another star from my evaluation because of her.

Royal Hair Istanbul !
“ Rezarta The Best Consultation “
Great experience from start to finish! The friendly, professional staff at Royal Hair Istanbul made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. All went smooth, and the results was excellent. From the moment I arrived, the staff was exceptionally welcoming and professional, ensuring I felt comfortable and well-informed throughout the entire process. The team demonstrated remarkable dedication, patiently answering all my questions and guiding me through each step with clarity.
What sets them apart is their year-long follow-up care—they genuinely care about your progress. Very satisfied and would definitely recommend!

From Boston 🇺🇸 to Turkey 🇹🇷 Honest Review

I did this with my brother we both got around 5100 grafts, and it was his birthday present so we did it together and let me tell you! This was an outstanding experience I’m not gonna lie. Definitely did my research before making my decision and i do not regret it one bit. I spoke with Fiona and she was the most direct and transparent with our initial conversation compared to other companies i spoke to. They don’t charge per graft which was great and they’re transparent with the cost just make sure you get all your questions in. Hotel was AMAZING! transfers were great! Procedure was a bit tough as expected Ofcourse not going to lie because of the local anesthesia I’m not a big fan of needles so everyone may react differently to them. Just make sure you speak up about how you feel during the procedure. They do provide you with after procedure care so it was a plus. Communication was great even after the procedure. One thing I highly recommend is to come in a few nights early not just one day early, this way you give yourself time to not only explore but rest up from the jet lag. If you’re in the process of choosing DO NOT HESITATE this was the BEST deal in Turkey!

I traveled from the US to Royal Hair…

I traveled from the US to Royal Hair Clinic in istanbul Turkey and I’m extremely happy with the results of my hair transplant. The whole process was smooth, with friendly staff and the latest technology making everything comfortable and stress-free.

I especially want to thank Rezarta, who was my main point of contact. She explained everything clearly and thoroughly—from pricing and procedures to transport and hotel arrangements. What really stood out was her continued support after the transplant. She stays in touch, responds quickly, and makes sure everything is going well even after the procedure.

If you’re considering a hair transplant and want a smooth, clear experience, I highly recommend contacting Rezarta. Thank you again to her and the entire Royal Hair Clinic team!

Hair transplant:

Thanks to Rezarta, my personal assistant that explained me and organized the trip from Italy to Albania for hair transplant.
In Tirana the clinic staff was hearty and professional, just one day for the intervention and the day after back home. Now I am waiting to see soon good results on my head. Still with WhatsApp I am in contact with Turkish clinic for any doubt.

Hair Transplant At Royal Hair Istanbul

I had my hair transplant at Royal Hair Transplant, Istanbul, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the moment I arrived, everything was seamlessly arranged, making the process smooth and stress-free.

A huge shoutout to Rezarta, who took excellent care of me from start to finish! She ensured my airport pickup was hassle-free, coordinated everything at the hospital, and guided me through every step of the journey. Her constant follow-ups after the procedure, checking on my progress and answering all my questions, made me feel truly valued as a patient.

The entire medical team was highly skilled and professional, making the transplant process comfortable and efficient. The post-op care and PRP session were handled with great attention to detail, and the results so far have been very promising.

Rezarta was very professional

Rezarta was very professional, understanding and easy to work with. Took care of all the transits to and from the hospital, to the hotel and airport. She even helped try to locate a taxi that my wife had accidentally left her backpack that had a few items of minor value. She translated and seemed to at times get after the workers at the hospital for not bringing me water when I had asked a couple of times. I think the only real issue/disappointment is had was with the hotel staff. Beware, even those guys are trying to rip you off. I needed a special adapter to charge my phone and laptop and both times was overcharged for the adapter, I only found out because the 2nd guy tried to charge me double, but when I called him out on it he folded like a lawn chair. It was then that I realized that I couldn't really trust them 100%. Would honestly have given 4 maybe 4.5 stars, but Rezarta made up for their short comings.

Good a experience overall

I would like to extend a big thank you to Fiona, who took excellent care of me throughout the entire process, both before and after my surgery. She efficiently organized the surgery date, provided all the necessary information, and helped arrange my travel, including transfers from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the clinic. Everything went smoothly, and I truly appreciated her availability at all hours, day and night. Her professionalism and support made the experience much easier for me.

One of the reasons I chose Royal Hair Clinic was the quick availability of a surgery date, which was very convenient for my schedule. However, there are a few aspects I’d like to address. Despite confirming the final price for the surgery in advance and sending photos of the areas that needed attention, I was asked to pay extra euros for an additional donor area, which was not previously agreed upon. I recommend keeping some extra funds available in case of unexpected charges.

Another issue was that the crown area was not filled as thoroughly as I had expected. Very few follicles were implanted in this area, which was disappointing. Additionally, it became clear that more follicles from the chest and beard would have been necessary to properly cover the recipient area.

I also noticed that the clinic staff had limited English proficiency, so it might be useful for future patients to have a translation tool or service prepared.

Overall, while I appreciated the organization and care provided by Fiona, I believe some aspects of the procedure could have been handled better. I hope this review helps others make an informed decision.

I recommend keeping some extra funds available in case of unexpected charges.

Additionally, I found that the clinic staff had limited English proficiency, so it might be helpful to have a translation tool or service prepared.

After the surgery, I experienced significant swelling on my face for several days. After researching, I found that some hair transplant doctors suggest this could be related to hygiene, but the consultant assured me it was a normal part of the healing process. After 5-6 days, the swelling did subside.

One concern I have is that the crown area wasn't covered as thoroughly as expected. Very few follicles were implanted in this area. After an 8-hour surgery, I was too exhausted to discuss this with the doctor, but I feel it could have been addressed better.

Overall, I hope this review helps others make an informed decision.

Extremely unfavorable experience

Extremely unfavorable experience. The initial agreed price was not respected, and an additional €500 was subsequently charged. The procedure was carried out with the eyes covered, motivated by the use of a substance considered harmful to vision.
