Travelling abroad for a hair transplant

Why do many people consider Turkey?

  • A lower price level than in Sweden
  • Packages with flights and accommodation are often marketed aggressively
  • High patient throughput at many clinics

But what does it actually cost?

  • Travel, accommodation and any return trips
  • Time away from work and family
  • The value of local follow-up if something needs adjusting
  • The risk of add-ons that were not part of the first quote

Important risks to weigh up

Technicians instead of doctors

  • The procedure is often performed by technicians without a medical licence
  • Weaker conditions for handling medical complications
  • Higher risk when medical expertise is missing along the chain

Follow-up suffers

  • Difficult to arrange regular follow-up on site
  • No local clinic to turn to day to day
  • Return trips for check-ups quickly become expensive

Complications and problems

  • Harder to get quick help if the result is not what you hoped for
  • Language barriers when urgent questions come up
  • Legal claims across borders can be complicated
  • A limited or non-existent guarantee in many cases

Advice before you choose
