Elithair was founded in 2013 and since 2022 has worked from its own building in Kâğıthane on the European side of Istanbul. Co-founder and medical director Dr. Abdulaziz Balwi is responsible for the procedures, although the clinic openly states that he does not perform every operation in person. According to Elithair, more than 150,000 procedures have been carried out over the years.
Eleven doctors are on the team. They include Dr. Imad Mustafa, who speaks Arabic, English and French, general surgeon Dr. Özgür Önbaşıoğlu, dermatologists Prof. Dr. Ülkü Çağlayan and Dr. Hazal Jafari, and anaesthesiologist Dr. Suat Çulhaöz. DHI is the standard method, with NEO FUE, manual and sapphire FUE, zero-shave FUE, Afro hair, female hair loss, beard work and PRP also available.
Selection is strict. A free hair analysis is returned within 24 hours, and the clinic turns down around 40 per cent of enquiries when a dense, natural result is not achievable. In early hair loss it often recommends PRP rather than surgery. A Pre-Test is run before treatment, Sleep-Deep sedation is offered during the procedure, and recovery is tracked in the clinic's app. Poor results from other clinics, such as unnatural hairlines and scars, are also corrected.
Packages start at €3,300, 3,000 grafts cost €3,500, and interest-free instalments are available. The price covers a VIP transfer and two nights at Elitoria, the clinic's own four-star hotel. Grafts come with a 20-year written guarantee. The clinic is certified to ISO 9001:2015 by TÜV Thüringen. Its Google profile shows 4.7 from about 2,700 reviews, and an Australian couple single out the pre-testing and the huge, spotless building.
