“Hi, I’m Atakan Akay. I have 12 years of experience in DHI and Sapphire hair transplant techniques, with 10 of those years spent at UniquEra Clinic. Here, I had the chance to further develop my skills with a company that shares my ethical values, and I’m grateful to share this journey with our patients. For me, UniquEra ranks as the number one clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, for hair transplants due to its unique approach. The difference lies not only in the precise processes but in the personal care and attention given to each patient. Each phase—before, during, and after surgery—is treated with special care, as we prioritize tracking and supporting every step of the patient’s journey.

Quality and high standards are essential here; without that commitment, you can’t be part of this company. Hair transplantation and aesthetics are valuable not only for men but also for women, as they can restore self-confidence. This work brings a sense of fulfillment, as many patients seek happiness through these transformations. Some of my happiest moments are when patients return for follow-ups or additional procedures, bringing positive feedback and memories with them. I remember one patient who returned a year after his first session; he immediately hugged me, and although I couldn’t recall him at first among the many patients we see, the moment was deeply rewarding. He even brought a watch as a gift, which I still wear.

I’d also like to mention the differences between DHI and Sapphire techniques. Both are effective modern methods, but DHI is ideal for areas with existing hair, as it minimizes the risk of damaging hair follicles. The Sapphire technique, on the other hand, is often used for larger bald spots, though it has a higher risk of affecting surrounding roots. Each technique is carefully chosen to match the unique needs of each patient.”
