Best hair transplant and blepharoplasty (upper) package Turkey

Coordinating the order of combined treatment

A combined plan at Plastic Surgery Turkey begins with multidisciplinary screening, not with fitting two services into one calendar. Eye health, lid anatomy and healing needs are assessed independently from the hair procedure. Each clinical team confirms its own suitability criteria, and the treatment order is agreed only after those assessments are complete.

Combining procedures is not automatically the fastest option. One treatment may need to come first, be separated by recovery time, or be removed if anaesthesia, medication, healing or practical timing makes a combined stay unsuitable.

Clinic hand-offs with clear responsibilities

For this combination, the coordinator should make the hand-off visible: which clinic reviews each part, who gives pre-treatment instructions and who is the contact after discharge. Keep medical history, medicines and previous procedures consistent with every team.

Ask for an itinerary that identifies assessments, treatment days, first reviews and rest days. It should leave room for clinical decisions rather than treating airport times as the only fixed priority.

Recovery priorities when procedures overlap

Recovery restrictions can differ between the procedures, so the more cautious instruction leads. Different restrictions can apply to each procedure; the stricter instruction normally governs the shared recovery period. Do not add exercise, cosmetic services or sightseeing commitments until the relevant clinician agrees.

An itemised multi-service quote

A useful written offer separates each procedure, anaesthesia or sedation where applicable, tests, hotel nights, transfers, medication, planned reviews and optional extras. It should also state what happens if one service is clinically deferred.

How is a safe donor-area limit worked out, and what should remain afterwards?

Hair at the back and sides is usually the more stable donor supply, but a safe extraction plan is not a simple grafts-per-square-centimetre calculation. It should take account of hair thickness and curl, scalp-to-hair contrast, the likely pattern of future loss and how visible the donor zone may become. Removing beyond that sustainable supply can leave diffuse thinning and make individual FUE dots more apparent. Ask the clinic to show the planned extraction pattern and the reserve it expects to preserve, rather than relying on a headline graft total. Source: ISHRS position statement on physician practice.

What exactly do FUE and an implanter pen describe in my plan?

ISHRS treats donor harvesting and creating recipient sites as separate surgical steps. FUE describes removal of individual grafts; DHI or a Choi implanter describes placement of prepared grafts and does not replace FUE. The written plan should identify both the harvesting instrument and the placement instrument. Source: ISHRS position statement.

Which named clinician is responsible for each surgical step and for follow-up?

The plan should name who diagnoses, designs the hairline, harvests, creates recipient sites, places grafts and provides aftercare. ISHRS says diagnosis, planning, donor harvesting, hairline design, recipient-site creation, medical-problem management and aftercare belong to a licensed physician trained in hair restoration; it considers surgical work by an unlicensed person unethical. Graft placement should still be expressly allocated, alongside long-term management of continuing hair loss. Source: ISHRS position statement.

Before eyelid surgery, how will dry eye and complete eyelid closure be assessed?

For lower-lid surgery, AAO EyeWiki calls for documenting dry-eye symptoms, drops, contact lenses, tear film, blinking, Bell’s phenomenon, lower-lid laxity, existing incomplete closure and forward prominence of the eye over the cheek. Uncontrolled dry eye is a reason to defer surgery; ASPS notes that a Schirmer test may be appropriate with a dry-eye history. Severe dry eye, absent Bell’s phenomenon or inability to close the lid may contraindicate blepharoplasty. Failed snap-back with more than 6 mm distraction increases ectropion risk and can require canthopexy or canthoplasty. Excess skin or orbicularis removal can prevent closure and worsen dryness. Incomplete closure, dry eye, ectropion, lid retraction, temporary or permanent vision change and very rare blindness are recognised risks.

After I return home, what happens if vision changes, an eyelid will not close, facial weakness or haematoma occurs?

Urgent symptoms vary by procedure. After face, neck, brow or temple lift, rapidly enlarging one-sided swelling, pain, breathlessness or new facial weakness require review. After eyelid surgery, inability to close the lid, severe pain, a pushed-forward eye or reduced vision needs urgent assessment; after facial fat injection, sudden visual loss is an emergency. ASPS lists blindness as a very rare eyelid-surgery risk, and a significant haematoma may need evacuation. Fat entering a vessel needs emergency eye assessment. The NHS advises settling in writing where complications are reviewed, what further surgery and return travel cost, and whether clinic insurance applies; travel insurance usually excludes surgical complications. It uses 7–10 days after facial cosmetic surgery as a flight-planning window, while the surgeon gives individual clearance. In the UK, follow-up after surgery is the operating surgeon’s responsibility; an overseas clinic may not offer equivalent follow-up or arrange a doctor at home. The 7–10 day facial-surgery travel window reflects clot risk, while individual clearance remains the surgeon’s decision. This page does not promise partner payment for admission, revision or travel.
