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

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
Dr. Meltem Şentürk is an Antalya Dermatology specialist and co-founder of DK Klinik whose official biography records medical graduation in 1994, dermatology specialization in 2000 and continuing dermatocosmetic education in Belgium.
Meltem Şentürk graduated from Akdeniz University Faculty of Medicine in 1994. She subsequently completed formal training in Dermatology and received the Dermatology specialist title in 2000. Dermatology is therefore the medical specialty recorded on this page; hair transplantation and dermatocosmetic procedures are treated as fields of clinical practice.
Her official biography records advanced dermatology, dermatocosmetology and laser training at Vrije University in Belgium in 1998. In 1999 she completed courses and an examination leading to a Certificate in Dermato-Cosmetic Sciences. These activities form part of the education timeline but are not presented as separate Turkish medical specialties.
Şentürk worked as a Dermatology specialist at Antalya State Hospital from 2000 to 2009. The official clinic history dates the foundation of DK Klinik to 2002, creating an overlap between her public-hospital career and the development of the private clinic. DK Klinik later expanded its work in dermatology, medical aesthetics and hair transplantation and obtained health-tourism authorisation.
The professional biography lists participation in dermatology and aesthetic-medicine organisations and educational meetings. ISHRS membership is shown because the directory owner supplied an official membership roster naming Meltem Senturk as a Full Member. Other society listings are kept as professional affiliations rather than converted into credential badges.
Her public profile combines hospital dermatology, private clinical leadership and continuing education. The clinic's provision of hair-transplant services establishes the practice context, but it does not automatically prove personal performance of extraction, channel opening or implantation in every case. Operative-stage indicators therefore remain limited to the evidence available for the individual doctor.

Operating Model
DK Klinik publishes physician-led consultation and hair-transplant information under Şentürk's name. ISHRS lists her Antalya location, Full Member status and procedure scope.
The public material establishes the physician and clinic relationship but not a complete operator map. Extraction, recipient-site creation and implantation should each be confirmed for the chosen procedure.
This is an operating-model classification, not a quality ranking, safety guarantee or recommendation. The actual team can vary by date, package and patient.

Public Record and Discussion
We separate official records, provider claims and patient testimony. Discussion themes describe what is publicly documented; they are not findings of clinical fault or proof of treatment quality.
Physician interview
The DK Klinik interview is useful for professional identity and the clinic's approach, but it remains provider-published material rather than an independent audit of operative roles.
Credential record
ISHRS membership is independently verifiable through the society directory; it does not replace stage-specific evidence.
Review scope last checked 29 August 2026. Anonymous reports are treated as testimony and are not converted into verified facts about a doctor or clinic.
