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
Op. Dr. Mehmet Can Şakı is a Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery specialist whose public CV documents Hacettepe medical education, Uludağ residency, European visiting-surgeon periods and private practice in Istanbul and Germany.
Mehmet Can Şakı was born on 10 April 1983 in Gaziantep. He entered the English-language medical programme at Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine in 2001 and graduated in 2007. During medical school, the official CV records a one-month obstetrics and gynaecology rotation in France in 2005, an early international element in his medical education.
He began Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery residency at Uludağ University in September 2008 and completed specialist training in December 2014. The formal specialty shown on this profile is therefore Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery; hair transplantation is recorded as part of his clinical practice rather than as a separate medical specialty.
After residency, Şakı's CV records visiting-surgeon experience in Stockholm and Regensburg in 2015. It then places him in private practice in Ankara from 2016 to 2018, followed by a faculty appointment at Maltepe University Hospital in 2018–2019. The published CV also documents shorter university-clinic visits in Lübeck in 2017 and Bayreuth in 2019.
In 2017 he obtained the Turkish plastic-surgery qualification and passed the European Board of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery examination. These board records belong to plastic surgery and should not be presented as hair-restoration credentials. His CV lists private plastic-surgery work in Istanbul from 2020 to 2022 and the opening of his own clinic in 2022.
The later chronology records German medical approbation in 2023 and work with Dr. Henning Ryssel's clinic in Mannheim. His public professional record also lists scientific publications and international clinical exposure. This profile incorporates hair transplantation within that broader reconstructive and aesthetic-surgery career while keeping provider service claims separate from personally verified operative stages.
