If you are travelling to Mersin, Turkey for a hair transplant, here is what helps you plan the trip.

## How many days should you stay?

Three days are enough for most patients:

1. **Day 1:** consultation, blood tests and planning.
2. **Day 2:** the transplant.
3. **Day 3:** check-up and first wash, then travel home.

A pre-assessment done online before you travel can shorten the plan.

## Travel

Mersin is about an hour by road from Çukurova International Airport (COV). Adana and Istanbul airports also connect to the region. Check visa requirements for your passport on the official Turkish e-Visa website, [evisa.gov.tr](https://www.evisa.gov.tr).

## Language

You can reach us on WhatsApp before you travel. Tell us your preferred language when you book so we can plan the consultation and any interpreting you need.

## Follow-up from home

In the months after the transplant, you can send photos on WhatsApp so your progress is followed. A check-up at month 12 is recommended.

## What to bring

- A list of the medicines you take and any recent test results,
- Comfortable shirts that button at the front,
- A loose hat for the journey home.
