OT.CO Clinic (Dr. Piotr Turkowski)

OT.CO Clinic is a specialized hair restoration and trichology center established in 1991. The clinic operates two locations in Warsaw, in the Bielany and Mokotów districts. Co-founded by Dr. Piotr Turkowski and Dr. Katarzyna Osipowicz, the facility provides both surgical and non-surgical solutions for hair loss. The medical team specializes in treating various forms of alopecia and scalp diseases.

Accreditations and Achievements

OT.CO Clinic holds recognition from international medical organizations including ISAPS and TOP DOCTORS. Dr. Piotr Turkowski is an early registered member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS). In 2022, the clinic reported conducting clinical research on the largest group of patients with alopecia areata globally. The clinic performs up to 170 hair restoration procedures every year.

Hair Restoration and Scalp Treatments

The clinic's flagship surgical procedure is FUE hair transplantation. This method is stitch-free and leaves no linear scars. Surgeons perform the procedure under local anesthesia for patient comfort. Clinic data shows a 97% hair take rate for FUE transplants. Full results and new hair growth typically appear 12 months after the procedure.

Specialists also provide several regenerative scalp therapies:

• Exosome therapy – a biological treatment using microinjections to stimulate hair follicles.
• Stem cell therapy – uses the patient's own cells to improve microcirculation.
• Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) – uses concentrated platelets to treat androgenetic and telogen alopecia.
• Scalp mesotherapy – delivers vitamins and peptides directly to hair follicles via microinjections.
• Scalp carboxytherapy – uses carbon dioxide to oxygenate follicles and support scalp regeneration.

First results from stem cell therapies often appear three months after the treatment series. These regenerative options can serve as alternatives or supplements to surgical hair restoration.

Hair Loss Diagnostics

Every treatment begins with a detailed medical history and physical inspection. The clinic uses trichoscopy as its primary diagnostic tool. This non-invasive imaging method magnifies the scalp to assess hair density and follicle condition. It helps specialists spot miniaturization, inflammation, or flaking to pinpoint the cause of hair loss.

Additional diagnostic tests available at the clinic include:

• Trichogram hair root analysis
• Elemental hair testing
• Hormonal blood panels for thyroid and adrenal function
• Vitamin and mineral deficiency screenings

These tools allow doctors to create individualized action plans for each patient. Regular trichoscopy sessions also track how well a chosen therapy works over time.

Specialized Care for Scalp Conditions

Beyond hair loss, the clinic treats chronic scalp diseases such as seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis. Specialists use photochemotherapy and immunotherapy to manage severe cases of alopecia areata. Photochemotherapy involves UV light treatments combined with psoralen three times weekly. For dermatitis, the clinic provides post-treatment protocols including specialized antifungal shampoos and seboregulating peels.

Services for International Patients

The clinic supports patients traveling from abroad for hair restoration. Staff members provide services in English and Polish. Online consultations are available through the clinic's platform to help patients plan their visit. This allows for a preliminary assessment of hair loss before traveling to Warsaw.
