In safe hands: who performs your hair transplant
Published Last updated Content: Swiss Hair Life editorial team
A hair transplant is a personal step. It is not just about hair, but also about self-image, well-being and identity. That is why it is important to know who you are placing your trust in. Our transplant team includes Berna and Murat, who have specialised in hair transplants for many years.
The team has since grown: Enis Balikci leads the transplant team in Zurich as lead transplant specialist, and Erva Balikci supports the team in Oftringen as an assistant for the Sapphire FUE technique. Medical leadership lies with Dr. Sabrina Tahery in Oftringen and Dr. Moustafa Kassar in Zurich. We introduce the whole team on our About us page.

Our specialists: Berna and Murat
Berna and Murat completed their training and practical specialisation in Turkey. Hair transplants are among the most frequently performed cosmetic procedures there, which has allowed them to carry out a large number of hair transplants over the years and develop highly practised fine motor skills.
- Berna: over 10 years of professional experience, involved in over 3,600 procedures
- Murat: over 8 years of professional experience, involved in over 2,400 procedures
Both of them perform transplants every day and have a trained eye for how a hairline looks when you talk, laugh or move. The hairline should not stand out; it should look as if it has always been there.
As Berna puts it: “A hairline is not just a line. It is expression. It has to suit your face, your facial expressions and your personality.”
How the hairline is drawn
Planning the hairline is one of the most important steps. It does not follow a template. The following factors are taken into account:
- Facial anatomy and proportions
- Natural head movements and facial expressions
- Hair texture and density
- Original position of the hair whorl
Planning takes time. The procedure only begins once the line looks natural. You can also see how we plan the hairline and the distribution of the grafts on our hair transplant page.
Years of craftsmanship and the highest hygiene standards for the best possible results
Berna and Murat bring experience from a country with a very high degree of specialisation and a very high caseload. In Switzerland, this surgical procedure is carried out in a clinical setting that is subject to clear medical requirements. This is how we combine practical precision with clear safety and hygiene standards.
The combination of:
- precise extraction of individual hair follicles
- careful placement following the natural direction of growth
- medical care before, during and after the treatment
has one aim: results that look natural.
Personal support during the operation
Beyond the questions already answered in the consultation, Berna and Murat also take time for their patients during the operation. They are available at all times, explain every step calmly and clearly, and offer reassurance at a moment that feels very personal for many people. This creates an atmosphere in which you feel well looked after, even during the procedure itself.
As Murat says: “A good result also comes from calm. No one should feel alone or not know what is happening.”
Medical note
“A hair transplant is a procedure that demands fine motor skills. Quality does not come from speed or the number of grafts, but from the precise alignment of each individual follicle. What matters is that the hair later grows in its natural direction and blends in visually with the rest of your hair.”
Key takeaways
In a hair transplant, it is not only the technique that counts, but also the eye, the experience and an understanding of what looks natural. Berna and Murat work calmly, precisely and with respect for each person’s individual appearance. The combination of experience, careful planning and medical care leads to results that bring harmony to the face.
