About
Turkey Hair Index is an independent research publication covering hair transplantation, clinic selection, clinic practices, and industry evidence in Turkey.
Why it exists
Marketing pages make many providers appear interchangeable. The people responsible for clinical decisions, the way teams work, the number of patients treated, and the evidence behind public claims can differ substantially.
What we research
We publish hair transplant education, clinic-selection guidance, structured clinic profiles, and original Turkey Hair Index research. A clinic listing is one part of the publication, not its organizing purpose.
Clinics are not added automatically. We publish a profile only when enough reliable information exists to make the assessment useful.
What we are not
Turkey Hair Index is not a clinic, medical tourism agency, or referral funnel. It does not arrange procedures and its editorial information is not individual medical advice.
How we work
The first version of Turkey Hair Index was developed through approximately six months of research and methodology work. That period describes the project's initial development and research phase as a whole, not six months of investigation into every clinic.
Information was compared across multiple reputable online sources, clinic materials, and patient-facing information rather than relying on a single review platform or marketing claim. The sources used depend on the question and do not all carry the same evidential weight.
Define the question and the information needed to answer it.
Cite sources, dates, and the basis for material factual claims.
Publish the method and limitations of each original report.
State what is unknown, unconfirmed, or outside the evidence.
Record substantive updates and correct supported factual errors.
Independence
Turkey Hair Index has no commercial relationships with any clinic. A partnership or sponsorship is disclosed separately. It does not verify a clinic, change the evidence record, or influence a THI Score. Commercial participation also never guarantees editorial inclusion.
Education is credited to Turkey Hair Index Editorial and original studies to Turkey Hair Index Research.
Named authors and medical reviewers are credited only when they have genuinely contributed or reviewed the work.
Material errors are reviewed against evidence and substantive research updates are dated.
