Medical profile

About Dr. Timur Aksu

Dr. Timur Aksu leads hair restoration assessment and treatment planning at Henesis Clinic. His work begins with understanding the patient’s hair-loss pattern, donor characteristics, treatment goals, and future hair-loss considerations before a plan is confirmed.

His clinical focus includes FUE and DHI, donor-area preservation, natural hairline design, and complex cases involving tightly curled and Afro-textured hair, including Type 4A–4C follicles.

At Henesis, his approach is based on case-specific decision-making, clear communication of treatment limitations, and preserving long-term options rather than pursuing the highest possible graft number.

Treatment authority

Areas of Clinical Focus

Treatment methods are selected after individual assessment and according to clinical suitability.

Donor Preservation

Balancing present treatment goals with donor capacity, extraction distribution, and possible future needs.

Hairline Planning

Design adapted to facial proportions, hair characteristics, age, and anticipated hair-loss progression.

Corrective and Complex Cases

Assessment of previous procedures or clinically complex donor and recipient-area considerations before treatment is recommended.

Special clinical interest

Approach to Afro-Textured Hair Restoration

Afro-textured hair restoration requires planning for both visible curl pattern and the possible curvature of follicles beneath the skin. Assessment therefore considers donor density, follicle direction, extraction strategy, hairline design, and the distribution needed to create appropriate visual coverage.

Dr. Aksu’s approach emphasizes adapting the treatment plan to the patient’s anatomy while managing the donor area conservatively. Technique and instrument selection remain case-specific and are confirmed only after assessment.
