Este Favor Saç Ekimi & Estetik

Este Favor is a private hair restoration clinic in Istanbul's Nişantaşı district. It was established in 1951 and operates from a single dedicated building. The Turkish Ministry of Health licenses the clinic as a medical provider. Its approach to hair restoration and aesthetic medicine puts medical care first.

Accreditations and Global Recognition

The clinic holds several international quality certifications. One of them is JCI (Joint Commission International) accreditation. This means the clinic meets global standards for healthcare safety. It also holds TEMOS and ISO 9001 certifications.

Este Favor has won industry awards and drawn media attention:

• Recognized as the Most Successful Hair Transplant Center in Turkey in 2026.
• Winner in the hair transplant category at the International Istanbul Awards.
• Featured in global media, including Forbes, Reuters, Fortune, and USA Today.

This recognition reflects the clinic's standing in Turkey's medical tourism sector.

Hair Restoration and Surgical Techniques

Dr. Serkan Aygın leads the surgical department. The center specializes in treating alopecia (hair loss) with several microsurgical methods. Every patient gets a digital graft analysis first. This shows which technique will work best for their hair type.

The clinic uses several advanced implantation methods:

• DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) with Choi Pen technology for direct follicle placement.
• Sapphire FUE with micro-sapphire blades that create precise channels.
• Hybrid Tech, which combines Sapphire FUE and DHI in one session.
• Unshaven hair transplantation for patients who want a discreet recovery.

For facial hair, the clinic performs beard and mustache transplants. These procedures have a reported 96% to 99% graft survival rate. Eyebrow transplants are available too, designed to match natural facial proportions.

Specialized Protocols and Technology

Este Favor uses its own technology to improve results and patient comfort. The AI Hair Mapping system analyzes the donor area down to the millimeter. This lets surgeons plan the harvest precisely. During extraction, the Precision Extraction System takes grafts evenly, which protects the donor site.

Several dedicated workflows protect graft health and patient safety:

• Fibroblast Healing System to support fast tissue repair and high graft retention.
• Storage (Cold Storage) Technology, which keeps grafts in nutrient-rich solutions at 0–4°C.
• Doctor-Only Protocol, where the physician personally makes all surgical incisions.
• Comfort-In System for needle-free local anesthesia, which makes numbing less painful.

During their visit, patients can watch sterilization protocols live. If the first results don't meet clinical standards, the clinic offers a free revision.

Aesthetic Medicine and Cosmetology

Beyond surgery, the center offers non-surgical aesthetic treatments. Its dermatology team uses FDA-approved fillers to contour the face and lips. These hyaluronic acid injections restore volume through micro-tip inserts.

Available aesthetic procedures include:

• Exosome therapy and cellular treatments such as Fibroblast and Alloblast.
• Laser Skin Rejuvenation with fractional laser technology.
• Wrinkle treatments, including Youth Vaccine and Paris Sparkle protocols.
• Mesotherapy and exosome therapy to support hair density.

Each aesthetic procedure starts with a blood test. This confirms the body is ready for treatment.

Services for International Patients

Este Favor offers VIP medical tourism support for patients traveling to Istanbul. Free online consultations let patients plan treatment remotely. Once they arrive, translators fluent in 20 languages are available, including English, German, and Russian.

The international service package covers travel logistics:

• VIP airport pickup and private transfers between the clinic and hotel.
• Accommodation in luxury 4-star hotels in central Nişantaşı.
• A 12-month structured remote follow-up program with scheduled photo reviews.

A dedicated coordinator is the main point of contact throughout the first year of recovery.
