Hair loss affects millions of men and women across the world, but today’s advanced medical techniques make it possible to restore not only your hair but also your confidence. When considering a hair transplant in Turkey, two techniques dominate the field: FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation). At Clinic Prime, both procedures are offered with the highest medical standards, experienced surgical teams, and all-inclusive packages that attract patients from across Europe, especially the UK.
But which one is better? The answer depends on several factors including your hair loss pattern, expectations, budget, and desired aesthetic outcome. Let’s take a deeper look at both options to help you make an informed decision.
FUE is one of the most widely used and trusted techniques in the world of hair transplantation. The method involves extracting individual hair follicles from a donor area—typically the back or sides of the scalp—and implanting them into thinning or balding regions. One of the key advantages of FUE is that it leaves no linear scarring, making it a great option for those who prefer shorter hairstyles. Recovery time is generally quick, and the results can be very natural when performed by experienced surgeons like those at Clinic Prime. FUE is particularly effective for treating large areas of hair loss, and it’s known for its consistency, efficiency, and affordability.
DHI, on the other hand, is a more advanced and precise version of FUE. While the follicle extraction process remains similar, the implantation stage is where DHI stands apart. Instead of making incisions and placing grafts manually, DHI uses a specialized tool called a Choi implanter pen. This allows surgeons to control the depth, angle, and direction of each hair follicle as it is implanted directly into the scalp. The result is a denser, more natural hairline with minimal trauma to the surrounding tissue. Because of this, DHI is often the preferred method for patients looking to restore frontal zones or refine their hairlines with the highest level of precision.
When it comes to the cost of a hair transplant in Turkey, both FUE and DHI are significantly more affordable than procedures in the UK, US, or most of Europe. At Clinic Prime, our all-inclusive Turkey hair transplant packages start from just £2,099 for FUE and around £2,499 for DHI. These prices cover everything—airport transfers, hotel accommodation, blood tests, consultation, surgery, aftercare products, and follow-up support—making it a seamless and stress-free experience for international patients.
So how do you choose between DHI and FUE? It largely depends on your individual needs. If you’re experiencing widespread hair loss and want the most coverage for the best value, FUE is likely the better option. However, if your goal is to achieve the most natural-looking results in smaller or more sensitive areas like the hairline or temples, DHI may be worth the slightly higher investment. At Clinic Prime, we offer a free consultation to assess your scalp condition, discuss your goals, and recommend the best treatment plan tailored to you.
Regardless of the method you choose, Turkey remains one of the top destinations for hair transplants—not just because of cost savings, but because of the exceptional level of expertise available. With its state-of-the-art facilities, English-speaking medical staff, and thousands of successful cases, Clinic Prime continues to be a leading name in Turkey hair transplant care.
