Antalya: Combine Your Hair Transplant with a Mediterranean Getaway
Turkey's stunning Mediterranean coast offers world-class clinics in a resort setting. Perfect for those who want to recover in paradise.
Why Choose Antalya?
While Istanbul is the hair transplant capital, Antalya is emerging as a compelling alternative. Known as the "Turkish Riviera," Antalya offers:
- A more relaxed, resort-like atmosphere for recovery
- Beautiful Mediterranean beaches and scenery
- Fewer clinics but often more personalised attention
- Slightly lower prices than Istanbul's top clinics
- 300+ days of sunshine per year — perfect for a recovery holiday
- Excellent 5-star all-inclusive resorts at very affordable prices
Getting to Antalya
Flights: There are no direct flights from Canada to Antalya. You'll need to connect through Istanbul (1.5-hour domestic flight) or a European hub. Total travel time is 14-18 hours depending on your connection.
From Istanbul: Turkish Airlines and Pegasus offer frequent, affordable flights from Istanbul to Antalya (from $50 CAD one-way). Some patients choose to have their consultation in Istanbul and procedure in Antalya, or vice versa.
Airport: Antalya Airport (AYT) is well-connected and modern. Most clinic packages include airport transfers.
