Hair transplant in a 34-year-old man, before and after 10 months, Sapphire FUE method |
Distance
Just an hour's flight from Rome and you're in Tirana, from Bari, Ancona, or Foggia in even less time. From Milan, it takes an hour and a half. While from Italy to Istanbul, it takes at least 3.5 hours and more than 5 hours to the capital of Turkey, Ankara. We must mention here that travels from Italy to Ankara are mostly layovers, and direct flights are rare, making it almost impossible to coordinate with clinics, hotels, work schedules, etc.
Standard of living
The standard of living in Albania is relatively better than in Turkey, but compared to Italy, it is lower. This, the culture, and the geographic distance from Europe, as well as Albania's prospect for the EU, have attracted many Turkish doctors and celebrities to live and work in Albania, and the field of hair transplantation is no exception. And here, of course, the quality will be high. On the other hand, salaries are about half of what they are in Italy, and this definitely affects the price of hair transplantation. Let's not forget that Albania is also rapidly developing internationally. Albanians can easily go to America through 10-year visas, soon travel to Japan for Albanians will be visa-free, etc.
Taxes
Due to the importance of medical tourism, the Albanian government has created significant tax benefits for clinics dealing with medical tourism.
