It was teeth, now it’s hair: The boom in Turkey’s cosmetic industry

There’s a new tourism boom. It’s all about cosmetic surgery, dentistry – both remedial and cosmetic – and hair transplants. Aussies are flying to Turkey, to undergo procedures too costly here in Australia.

In this episode of the Briefing, we meet Michael, one of thousands of Australians who’ve been to Turkey for a hair transplant; and Dr Nicola Dean, the president of Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Is it safe? And is it actually cheaper than getting the procedure here in Australia, given you have to fork out for flights and accom as well as the surgery. In today’s Briefing, would you travel to Turkey for a boob job or hair transplant?
