Medical Specialty
The official medical specialty is recorded separately from hair transplantation. “Hair Transplant Specialist” is not used as a medical specialty; it describes a clinical focus or role, not a Turkish residency branch.
Credential Membership
No accepted hair-restoration credential membership has yet been verified for this profile.
Techniques
Technique labels are tracked separately from medical specialty and operative responsibility. A check mark identifies a technique verified in the current research record; a question mark means it has not yet been verified for this doctor.
Doctor Involvement
These five stages are tracked separately. A check mark means the doctor’s personal involvement is verified; a question mark means the public evidence is not yet sufficient to confirm that stage.
Procedures
Procedure types are shown only where the doctor's current record supports them. Unverified beard, eyebrow or revision work remains marked with a question mark rather than being inferred from clinic-wide services.
Biography and Medical Education
Uzm. Dr. Nezih Karaca is an Istanbul-based Dermatology specialist with training in dermatologic surgery and cosmetic dermatology and a documented hair-transplant practice.
Karaca studied at Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine from 1996 to 2003. He then trained in Dermatology at Ege University Faculty of Medicine, completing the programme in 2009. His academic record includes publications in dermatologic surgery, pigmentary disease, inflammatory skin disease and procedural dermatology.
Published career histories place him at Okmeydanı Training and Research Hospital's Dermatology clinic from 2009 to 2012, including clinical leadership responsibilities, with additional work at İzmir Military Hospital. He later moved into private Dermatology practice in Istanbul and currently sees patients at his Nişantaşı clinic.
In 2010 he attended a dermatologic-surgery fellowship programme connected with the University of Sydney and Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. In 2012 he completed a cosmetic-dermatology fellowship programme at the University of Miami; another biography describes a Türkan Saylan-supported Miami training period in 2013 covering Mohs surgery, cosmetic procedures and lasers.
Hair transplantation is documented in specialist congress programmes and published clinic material, and the directory owner has confirmed his inclusion as a practicing hair-transplant doctor. The reviewed sources do not provide a reliable doctor-specific allocation of each operative stage.
Education and career chronology
Current practice and evidence context
Karaca's Dermatology credentials and hair-transplant activity are supported by professional profiles, congress programmes and clinic material. Because the public evidence does not assign Hairline Design, Channel Opening, Extraction or Implantation to him personally in a stage-specific way, only Supervision is verified.
