Estethica, a clinic for aesthetic and plastic medicine, has operated since 2008 and is part of Estethica Health Group. Over that time, the clinic has performed more than 28,000 hair transplant procedures.

Network Scale and Government Licence

Estethica Health Group in Istanbul is a network of 3 medical complexes: 448 international-level specialists, 86 premium-comfort rooms. The flagship complex is located in Ataşehir and holds an active Class A licence from the Turkish Ministry of Health (Tıp Merkezi Ruhsatnamesi No. 46, İstanbul Sağlık Müdürlüğü) — a licence number anyone can verify independently; it isn't a claim the clinic makes about itself.

Class A Hospital vs. Commercial Center — What's the Difference

A Class A hospital operates under government oversight: the Turkish Ministry of Health conducts unannounced inspections, and by law, graft extraction and channel opening — the critical stages of the procedure — must be performed personally by a licensed surgeon. At Estethica, nurses perform the implantation under his direct supervision, with no uncertified technicians involved.

At a commercial center operating without this status, these same stages are often effectively delegated to unlicensed assistants, while the doctor's role is limited to the consultation.

Technically: grafts are implanted within 4 hours of extraction and are stored in HypoThermosol — a tissue preservation solution used in biobanking and organ transplantation.
