DHI · Choi implanter · Istanbul
Your hair back, in one trip to Istanbul.
One carefully planned DHI operation — the Choi implanter opens the channel and releases the graft in the same motion. Arrange your own stay, or let us organise the hotel and transfers. Both are possible.

The method
What DHI actually does
Each follicle is loaded into a Choi implanter: the tool opens the channel and releases the graft at the same instant. There is no separate channel-opening stage. Grafts follow the natural growth angle of the area.
Why Esturkey
Every step planned, nothing left vague
Coming to another country for surgery only works when you know exactly what will happen and what it costs. Everything below is agreed in writing before you book anything.
Doctor-led planning
Your hairline and graft count are decided by a specialist before you book — not on the operating day.
We can arrange your stay
You are welcome to book your own flight and hotel. If you would rather not deal with any of it, take the all-inclusive option and we cover the hotel, the transfers and your ticket.
Someone who speaks your language
A translator is with you at the consultation, in the operating room and at the check-up.
12 months of follow-up
We stay in touch after you fly home and review your growth at months 3, 6 and 12.
Treatments
The right technique for your hair
We work with one method — DHI with the Choi implanter — and adapt it to the area being treated.
DHI (Choi implanter)
- Channel and implantation in a single motion
- Grafts follow the natural growth angle of the hair
- Less trauma to the scalp, so healing is quicker
- Typically 2,000–4,000 grafts in one session
PRP therapy
- Given to every patient after the operation
- Plasma separated from your own blood, applied to the scalp
- Used to support healing in the treated area
- Included in the price — never an extra
Beard & eyebrow
- Same DHI technique, finer placement
- Fills patchy beard, cheeks, moustache and scars
- Eyebrows follow your natural growth direction
- Usually 800–2,500 grafts
Options
Two ways to do it
The treatment is identical in both. The only difference is whether you organise your stay or we do. Your graft count sets the price, confirmed in writing after your free analysis.
Included for everyone, in both options
- Doctor’s consultation and hairline design
- DHI transplant with the Choi implanter
- An interpreter with you throughout
- Aftercare kit and medication
- First wash done at the clinic
- PRP session after the operation
- 12 months of follow-up
Treatment only
You book your own flight and hotel. You pay for the treatment, nothing else.
- Everything in the list above
- You arrange your flight, hotel and transport
- We will gladly recommend hotels near the clinic
- The lower price of the two
All-inclusive
Your ticket, your hotel and your transfers are on us. You just come.
- Everything in the list above
- Hotel accommodation for your stay
- VIP airport and clinic transfers
- Your flight ticket
- Nothing left for you to organise
Apart from the flight, the hotel and the transfers, the two options contain exactly the same treatment.
How it works
Six steps, one day
Send your photos
Four photos — front, top, both sides. Within 24 hours you get a graft estimate, the right technique and a fixed price.
Pick your dates
We hold your slot, book the hotel and send you a day-by-day plan before you buy your flight.
Arrival day
If you chose all-inclusive, you are met at the airport and taken straight to the clinic. Blood tests and the final hairline design happen that same morning, right before surgery.
Surgery, the same day
Six to eight hours under local anaesthetic, with breaks and lunch. Grafts are placed one by one with the Choi implanter. You go back to your hotel the same day.
First wash & flight home
The next morning we do the first wash at the clinic, show you how to repeat it, hand over your kit and take you to the airport.
Months 3, 6 and 12
Your coordinator checks in. Shedding at week 4 is normal, real growth starts around month 4, and the final result lands at month 12.
Before & after
Results from our patients
Every photo is shared with the patient's written permission. Results vary from person to person.
Real before-and-after photographs will be published here as soon as we have written consent from the patients concerned. We do not publish stock images or other clinics’ results.
Patient reviews will be published here once we have written consent from real patients.
Questions
The things everyone asks
How long do I need to stay in Istanbul?
The whole procedure is done on the day you arrive: consultation, blood tests, hairline design and surgery, all in one day. The next morning we do the first wash at the clinic and take you to the airport — one night is enough.
Does it hurt?
The operation is done under local anaesthetic. The injections at the start are the uncomfortable part; after that most patients watch films or sleep. Soreness for two or three nights afterwards is normal and controlled with the painkillers in your kit.
When will I see the result?
The transplanted hairs shed around week four — this is expected and not a failure. New growth starts at month four, becomes obvious by month eight, and the final result is judged at month twelve.
Will anyone be able to tell?
For the first two weeks, yes — there is redness and scabbing. Most people plan around ten to fourteen days before going back to the office. A hat is fine after day three.
How many grafts do I need?
That depends on your loss pattern and donor density, which is exactly what the free analysis answers. Be wary of anyone quoting a graft count without seeing your photos.
What if it does not grow?
Send us photos at your 12-month check. If the agreed area has not filled as planned, the touch-up is arranged under the terms in your treatment agreement — which you receive in writing before you travel.
How do I pay?
A deposit reserves your date, the rest is paid at the clinic. No payment is taken before your analysis and written quote.
