Harun Eymen Alakaya graduated from Istanbul University Faculty of Medicine in 2011 and has worked in hair restoration ever since — and has been at this clinic since 2014. The clinic reports his involvement in more than 12,000 procedures.
The clinic lists him as an Afro hair specialist, and his published areas of expertise include Afro and curly hair graft direction and angle planning specifically — not as a footnote to general work, but as named competencies.
How he approaches an Afro-textured case
Before recommending a plan, he assesses the cause and pattern of hair loss, donor capacity, scalp condition, hair calibre, curl pattern, age, and what you actually want long term. On coiled hair, that means accounting for the curved structure of the follicle beneath the skin, how the curl naturally behaves once it grows, and the direction each graft has to be placed in the recipient area — decisions that get made before anyone picks up a punch.
His stated priority is a natural result without overharvesting the , and without placing grafts at angles or densities that fight the hair you already have. In his own framing, a good transplant starts with appropriate patient selection and realistic planning: whether your donor area can safely support the coverage you’re asking for, explained to you before a procedure is recommended rather than after.
Beyond the clinic
He presented a poster at the Istanbul Hair Summit in 2022 on diamond blade usage in FUE, and takes part in national and international hair transplantation seminars.

This record is generated from our claim register, not written by hand — so it cannot say one thing here and something else on the rest of the page. View verification status for the whole site or read our editorial policy.
We are in the process of adding an independent registry link for this profile. Until it is confirmed, please treat the credentials above as stated by the clinic rather than independently verified by us.
