With the classic FUE technique, follicles are taken from the donor area one by one, fine channels are opened at the angle of your natural growth, and the grafts are placed. At Sima that happens in a licensed clinic in Aleppo, with the same instruments and the same specialists as our Istanbul centre. The consultation is free, the figure is in writing before you book a seat, and the aftercare kit comes with instructions in English. Three or four nights near the clinic, then home, with follow-up until the twelfth month.
One follicle at a time, to the Istanbul standard

Istanbul's hands, brought to Aleppo
People fly to Istanbul for the FUE technique, because Istanbul is the city that put hair transplants on the medical map. Sima turned that journey around. We did not send you to the specialists; we brought the specialists to you. The hands that operate in our Istanbul centre, Your Hair Center, are the hands working in Aleppo today, with the same protocol. An English-speaking coordinator carries the conversation from your first message, and the follow-up does not stop at the border.
Why Türkiye, and why here
- Türkiye’s global record in hair restoration is the trust signal. Sima rests on it without borrowing it, because the Istanbul practice is our own.
- The same hands, the same instruments, the same protocol, the same expected result.
- A procedure room where an English-speaking coordinator knows your case and respects your privacy.
- A licensed clinic in Aleppo, which keeps you inside a regulated medical framework from the first day to the twelfth month.
How the FUE technique works
A short definition after the proof, not before it. FUE stands for follicular unit extraction, and these are the actual steps as you will experience them, in plain English.
Extraction
The specialist takes healthy follicles from the donor area at the back of the head one by one, with a fine micro-punch and no long incision.
Channel opening
The specialist draws the new hairline and opens fine channels at the angle and direction of natural growth. This is where density and the natural look are decided.
Placement
The follicles are placed into the open channels in a studied order and distribution, so the new hair reads as one with your own and shows no visible border.
FUE vs DHI, the difference in one table
| Factor | Classic FUE | DHI |
|---|---|---|
| Placement method | Channels are opened, then the grafts are placed by hand | An implanter pen opens and places in one step |
| Density | High, through precise control of the channels | Also high, through the implanter pen |
| Shaving | The donor area is shaved | Usually limited shaving |
| Recovery period | 7 to 10 days | Very close to the FUE period |
| Number of sessions | One long session in one day | Comparable |
| Ideal candidate | Most cases, especially wider areas | Targeted areas, and cases that prefer less shaving |
What the FUE technique costs at Sima
The ranges below follow the expected graft count for your case. The final figure comes after the donor area is examined and the right density for your hairline is set. Set against the equivalent trip to Istanbul, roughly ~$2,570 to ~$4,800 once flights, hotel and lost working days are counted, a typical FUE case at Sima comes to around ~$1,500. Your figure is confirmed in writing after the consultation, by graft count and donor area. Travel, hotel and airport pickup are arranged by Sima and billed separately at cost.

Your journey with us, as a visitor
WhatsApp message
Your first message is answered within an hour on working days. We collect photos of your hair as it is now, your goals, and the dates that fit your trip.
Procedure day
One full day at our clinic in Aleppo. It opens with the in-person consultation and hairline planning and ends with your return to the hotel in the evening.
One week
The first wash is done at the clinic before you fly. The seven-day check of the donor area and the placed grafts is in person if you are still in Aleppo, and over WhatsApp with photos if you are home.
One month
The shedding phase. A natural stage that does not signal a failed result, but the follicles entering their new growth cycle.
Three to six months
Real growth becomes visible. Early density and a hairline taking shape, with WhatsApp follow-up to track progress.
Twelve months
The final result. A closing assessment and a comparison with the first photos, with the case documented only with your consent.
Days 1 to 7 in detail
- Day 1. Back to the hotel after the procedure, sleeping and eating instructions, and a WhatsApp check-in in the evening.
- Days 2 and 3. The gentle wash protocol starts at the clinic, then continues at the hotel and at home.
- Days 4 to 7. The crusts fall away naturally and a light routine gradually returns, with the week’s check in person or over WhatsApp, depending on your flight.
Recovering as a visitor, then at home
Daily guidance
- Sleeping position. On your back with the pillow slightly raised for the first week, at the hotel and on the flight home where you can.
- Wash protocol. Gentle washing from day three to day ten, with the products we give you.
- Sun protection. Four weeks without direct exposure, and a loose cotton hat outdoors, including at the airport.
- Back to sport. Light activity from the second week, strenuous exercise from the fourth week onwards.
- Food and hydration. Enough protein, plenty of water, and as little smoking as possible in the first two weeks.
- Prayer and wudu. If you pray, keep the forehead off the ground for the first ten days and wash the head gently without rubbing in the first week. Normal practice usually resumes after ten to fourteen days on the doctor’s advice, and your own scholar has the final word.
Daily WhatsApp check-ins from day one to day seven, wherever you are.
Before you fly home
- The return flight. Book it after the first wash at the clinic. Most visitors stay three or four nights and fly on the fourth or fifth day.
- The second wash. Day ten, guided over WhatsApp wherever you are, with the products from your kit.
- The flight itself. A loose cotton hat, nothing pressing on the grafted area, and the raised-pillow position where you can manage it.
- After you land. Monthly photo follow-up over WhatsApp until the twelfth month, included in the price.
Most Western governments advise against travel to Syria. Their advice is linked on the travel guide, beside what operates on the ground. If you are Syrian and coming home, time the procedure with the visit; the team stays with you over WhatsApp after you fly back.
Questions visitors ask about the FUE technique
Is the result of the FUE technique in Aleppo different from Istanbul?
The same hands, the same protocol, the same approved instruments. Sima is the Aleppo clinic of Your Hair Center, Istanbul, and the specialists rotate between the two centres. The difference is not the result but your experience around it. A calmer and far cheaper city to stay in, a Syrian bill, and the same monthly follow-up over WhatsApp after you fly home. If your case would be better served in Istanbul, we say so and book you there.
When do the final results show?
The first visible result begins between the third and sixth month. The final density and the completed hairline appear at the twelfth month. Sima documents every stage with photographs, and the final file reaches you at the closing review, in person or over WhatsApp.
How long does the procedure take?
One session takes between six and eight hours in a single day. It includes the in-person consultation, hairline planning, extraction, channel opening and placement. You leave in the evening for your hotel with the complete aftercare kit.
What exactly does the cost include?
The free consultation, the procedure in all its stages, local anaesthetic, the aftercare kit, the check in the first week, in person or over WhatsApp, and the follow-up schedule over WhatsApp until the twelfth month. There are no hidden fees. Your figure is confirmed in writing after the consultation, by graft count and donor area, and that is what you pay. Travel, hotel and airport pickup are arranged by Sima and billed separately at cost.
When can I return to work?
Desk work, including from your hotel or on the flight home, is possible from the second or third day with a cotton hat. Work that needs physical effort or sun exposure waits until after the first week, and strenuous sport until the fourth week.
Is the FUE technique performed for older clients?
Age alone is not a barrier. What decides candidacy is a settled loss pattern, the density of the donor area and general health. Many of our successful cases were in their fifties and sixties, and the in-person assessment is decisive there.
How many nights do I need in Aleppo, and how do I get there?
Three or four nights covers the in-person consultation, the procedure day, the first wash at the clinic and a day of rest. Aleppo airport has direct flights from Istanbul, Sharjah and Kuwait, and most passports receive a visa on arrival, paid in cash. Most Western governments advise against travel to Syria; their advice is linked on the travel guide, beside what operates on the ground. Travel, hotel and airport pickup are arranged by Sima and billed separately at cost.
Is a hair transplant permissible in Islam?
Most contemporary scholars permit it, as the restoration of something that exists naturally rather than a change to creation. The detailed ruling varies from case to case, and we recommend asking a scholar you trust about yours.
