Comparing hair transplant packages in Istanbul? At The Aesthetic Works, our Standard package costs €1,800 and our Special Doctor package costs €2,800. Both include hotel accommodation and transfers, with procedures taking place in Şişli, Istanbul.
The main difference is the doctor’s involvement in your procedure. In the Standard package, the doctor provides the consultation and the clinical team performs the procedure. In the Special Doctor package, the doctor takes on specific procedural stages, with the team carrying out the remaining stages.
Here is what that means when choosing your package.

What Does the €1,800 Standard Package Include?
The Standard package includes a doctor consultation, a procedure performed by the clinical team, hotel accommodation and transfers.
The doctor’s role in this package is consultation only. It should not be confused with a package in which the doctor personally performs the surgical stages.
If you are comparing offers around this price, ask each provider to explain who will carry out your procedure. “Doctor consultation included” and “doctor performs procedural stages” describe different arrangements.
Our team can explain the Standard package and arrange an assessment before you decide whether to proceed.

What Is Different About the €2,800 Special Doctor Package?
The Special Doctor package is for patients who want the doctor to perform specific stages of their hair transplant.
For Sapphire FUE, the doctor designs the hairline and opens the recipient channels. The clinical team carries out the other stages of the procedure.
Both Sapphire FUE and DHI options are available within our Special Doctor offering, subject to assessment. If you are considering DHI, we will explain the doctor’s specific tasks and the team’s responsibilities in your proposed plan before booking.
This package does not mean that the doctor performs every stage alone. It means the doctor has a defined procedural role beyond the consultation.
The €1,000 difference reflects that additional doctor involvement. Both packages include hotel accommodation and transfers.

Does the More Expensive Package Guarantee a Better Result?
No. A higher package price should not be treated as a guarantee of a particular result.
The distinction between these two packages is who performs specific stages, rather than a promise of a certain density, graft survival rate or final appearance.
Your expectations and proposed treatment plan should be discussed during assessment. Choose with a clear understanding of the doctor’s role, the team’s role and what is realistically being proposed for you.
Which Package Should You Consider?
Start with two questions: what does your proposed treatment involve, and how much direct doctor involvement do you want?
The Standard package may fit your preferences if you are comfortable with a doctor consultation followed by a procedure performed by the clinical team.
The Special Doctor package may fit your preferences if having the doctor personally perform defined procedural stages is a priority.
You do not need to choose a technique or package before contacting us. Explain what you would like to improve and ask for a proposal that sets out the responsibilities clearly.

What If I Want to Keep My Existing Hair Long?
If avoiding a full-head shave is your main priority, ask about our Long DHI package at €2,000, including hotel accommodation and transfers.
With our Long DHI approach, a small donor area is shaved while the existing hair in the recipient area is left long. It is not a completely unshaven procedure.
Long DHI and Special Doctor describe different aspects of an offer: one concerns the treatment approach, while the other concerns doctor involvement. Do not assume the €2,000 Long DHI package includes the Special Doctor arrangement.
