The costs of longevity clinics range from approximately 150 euros for a single intravenous treatment session to over 150,000 US dollars per year for the most comprehensive doctor-led programmes in the United States and Switzerland. The price difference reflects not only geography but also the depth of testing, the level of physician involvement, and whether your protocol is tailored to your actual genetic data or based on a standardised treatment menu applied to every patient.
This guide explains in detail what the costs of longevity clinics actually cover, why there are such significant variations, what you should look out for before making a payment, and details the cost of equivalent care in Istanbul, where the cost of the same standard of care is significantly lower than in the US or Western Europe.

What Is a Longevity Clinic and What Are You Actually Paying For?
A longevity clinic is a medical centre under the supervision of a doctor that focuses on extending healthy life expectancy – that is, the number of years spent in full health – by measuring and reducing biological age, rather than waiting for diseases to develop. The fee you pay at a longevity clinic is entirely different from what you would pay at a wellness centre or during a standard GP consultation.
The cost of the Longevity Clinic programme (Youngevity at Dr Terziler’s) consists of a combination of the following components, and understanding which components you are receiving is crucial for assessing whether the price is justified.
| Component | What It Covers | Istanbul (Turkey) | USA / Switzerland |
| Initial doctor’s consultation | Clinical history, setting of objectives, protocol planning | 0–500 EUR | 500–2,500 EUR |
| Genetic test (SNP panel) | Analysis of 23,000–700,000 known variants | 300–1,500 EUR | 500–3,000 US dollars |
| Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) | Analysis of exactly 3 billion base pairs, lifetime genetic record | 2,000 – 4,000 EUR | 5,000–15,000 US dollars |
| Biological age test (epigenome) | Organ-specific methylation clock analysis | 500–1,500 EUR | 2,000–5,000 US dollars |
| Microbiome analysis | Gut bacterial profile, short-chain fatty acid production, dysbiosis markers | 200–600 EUR | 500–2,000 US dollars |
| NAD+ IV therapy (per session) | Mitochondrial energy, DNA repair pathway | 200–400 EUR | 400–1,200 US dollars |
| Ozone therapy (per session) | Blood oxygenation, anti-inflammatory, tissue regeneration | 150–350 EUR | 300–900 US dollars |
| Myers’ IV Cocktail (per session) | B-complex, vitamin C and magnesium infusion | 150–300 EUR | 250–700 US dollars |
| Glutathione + Vitamin C IV (per session) | Antioxidant, detox, immune support | 150–300 EUR | 250–700 US dollars |
| Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (per session) | Pressurised oxygen for cell regeneration | 150–350 EUR | 300–800 US dollars |
| Medical follow-up (annual programme) | Quarterly or monthly consultations, protocol adjustments | 500–2,000 EUR | 2,000–10,000 US dollars |
| Comprehensive longevity programme (12 months) | All of the above, integrated and doctor-led. | 3,000 – 10,000 EUR | 15,000 – 150,000 US dollars |

What is the average cost of a longevity clinic in 2026?
Whilst the average annual cost of a longevity clinic under medical supervision in the United States or Western Europe ranges from 10,000 to 50,000 US dollars, entry-level programmes start at around 3,000 to 7,000 US dollars for a single diagnostic visit. The most comprehensive programmes at leading clinics in the US, Switzerland and Spain range from 50,000 to 150,000 US dollars per year and include comprehensive diagnostic tests, full-body imaging, genomic analysis and ongoing courses of intravenous treatment.
In 2026, the longevity clinic market is characterised by three main pricing tiers.
| Tier | Type | Annual Cost Range | What’s Included? |
| Entry-level | Basic health check-up and longevity programmes | US$3,000 – 10,000 | SNP genetic panel, biomarker blood tests, lifestyle counselling. No protocol managed by a doctor. Reports are generally generated by an algorithm. |
| Intermediate level | Structured longevity programmes | 10,000–30,000 US dollars | More comprehensive genetic analysis, biological age testing, intravenous protocol courses, doctor consultations. Most clinical programmes in the US are included here. |
| Premium level | Fully comprehensive longevity medicine programmes | US$30,000 – US$150,000 and above | Whole-genome sequencing, multi-organ epigenome analysis, microbiome analysis, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, full IV treatment course, 12-month medical follow-up. Clinique La Prairie is one of the best programmes in the US. |
| Istanbul (Turkey) | Doctor-led, comprehensive WGS programme | 3,000–10,000 EUR | Same depth as the premium level: WGS, epigenome, microbiome, IV regimens, 12-month follow-up. 50–70 per cent below US/Swiss prices. |
At Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic, the longevity programme—conducted under medical supervision and including whole-genome sequencing (analysis of 3 billion variants), a biological age test and a comprehensive intravenous protocol course—starts from 3,000 Euro; this programme offers the same clinical depth as residential programmes in Switzerland costing between 25,000 and 80,000 Euro.

What Is Typically Included in a Longevity Clinic Programme?
A well-structured longevity clinic programme comprises a five-stage clinical process, and the key difference between a truly valuable longevity rejuvenation programme and an expensive health package lies in whether all five of these stages are present.
The first stage is genomic analysis. Without understanding an individual’s genetic predispositions regarding ageing pathways, mitochondrial function, metabolic efficiency and disease risk, a longevity protocol is being designed without its most crucial input. The quality of genomic analysis varies greatly: whilst a consumer-grade SNP panel evaluates between 23,000 and 700,000 pre-selected variants, whole-genome sequencing analyses the entire 3 billion base pairs, including new variants not yet catalogued in any database.
The second stage is the biological age test. Chronological age indicates how many years have passed. Biological age, measured via epigenomic methylation analysis, indicates how quickly your cells are actually ageing. Organ-specific epigenome profiling can reveal whether your cardiovascular system is ageing at the rate of someone ten years older or younger than you, thereby enabling intervention where it is most needed.
The third tier is a personalised IV treatment, and the Peptide protocol is derived from the first two tiers. This is where genetic and biological data are translated into action: the specific deficiencies, pathway weaknesses and cellular sensitivities identified during the testing phase determine which intravenous (IV) protocols are prescribed, at what dose and at what frequency. General IV programmes administered without a genetic context produce general results.
The fourth layer consists of the clinician’s interpretation and oversight. This is the layer most frequently missing in mid-level programmes. The numerous algorithm-based long-term reports now available on the market assess genetic variants on an individual basis, rather than within the context of the entire genome or the patient as a whole. A clinician’s interpretation takes into account how variants interact, how lifestyle factors modify genetic risk, and what the clinical priorities are based on the patient’s current health status.
The fifth layer is continuous monitoring: reassessment, protocol adjustment and a long-term relationship with a doctor who tracks your biological ageing over the years, rather than limiting themselves to a single visit.
Long-term biological age management also intersects directly with hormonal health and sexual vitality, which are among the earliest and most measurable indicators of the rate of cellular ageing. For patients whose epigenomic or biomarker data indicate accelerated ageing within these systems, Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic offers specialised programmes: Anti-ageing treatments targeting skin, cellular and systemic ageing; male sexual health, covering erectile function, testosterone optimisation and penile health. It also includes women’s sexual health, genital rejuvenation and hormonal balance. These are not separate services; they are extensions of the same clinical approach applied to the systems that age most noticeably and severely.

Why Do Longevity Clinic Programmes Vary So Much?
The costs of longevity clinics vary by a factor of 50 or more because the term ‘longevity clinic’ encompasses everything from a single serum therapy session to a 12-month programme under medical supervision that includes whole-genome sequencing. Multi-organ epigenome profiling, microbiome analysis, hyperbaric oxygen therapy and peptide protocols. The variation in cost primarily reflects the depth of coverage rather than quality, although in this field, scope and quality are closely interlinked.
Three structural factors determine the cost difference. Long-life clinics’ programmes and the market.
Genomic depth. An SNP panel evaluating 700,000 variants costs a laboratory approximately 50 to 200 euros. Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS), which analyses 3 billion base pairs, costs between 500 and 2,000 euros in laboratory processing costs alone. The interpretation of WGS data requires specialist clinical time, which is not required for SNP panel reports generated largely by algorithms. This single factor accounts for a significant portion of the cost difference between entry-level and premium programmes.
Medical involvement. Programmes that do not involve a doctor to guide the protocol based on the patient’s genomic and biomarker data, devices-based treatments—such as cryotherapy, red light panels, hyperbaric chambers and intravenous drip infusions—are significantly less costly as they require minimal physician time. Programmes based on genuine clinical medicine—where a doctor interprets genetic results, determines protocol parameters, makes adjustments based on blood biomarker responses, and maintains a clinical relationship over the years—are expensive because the doctor’s time is the most valuable input in the programme.
Geography. The same level of clinical depth that costs 50,000 US dollars at a clinic in Switzerland costs 10,000 euros in Istanbul. This does not represent a reduction in quality. It reflects the structural cost differences between the two healthcare systems: doctors’ salaries, clinic rental costs, regulatory compliance costs and liability insurance are much lower in Turkey than in the United States or Switzerland. Laboratory equipment, genome sequencing technology and doctors’ training, however, are equivalent.
Why Are Longevity Clinics So Expensive?
Longevity clinics are expensive because their most valuable components – doctors’ time, in-depth genome sequencing, specialised laboratory analyses and continuous clinical monitoring – are genuinely costly. Whole-genome sequencing requires significant laboratory infrastructure. The clinical interpretation of genomic data by a doctor requires years of specialist training. Continuous monitoring requires the doctor’s ongoing time. The additional costs at clinics in the US and Switzerland also reflect facility costs, liability insurance and regulatory expenses; these are structurally lower in Turkey, which is why Istanbul offers equivalent clinical depth at 50–70 per cent lower cost.
Do you want to avoid paying high prices for a superficial programme?
Request a review by a doctor to determine whether the programme you are considering offers genuine genomic depth, clinical supervision and follow-up.
Review my programme before making a payment.
How does the cost of a longevity clinic in Turkey compare to costs in the US, the UK and Europe?
A longevity programme conducted under medical supervision in Turkey is 50–70 per cent cheaper than an equivalent programme in the United States, the United Kingdom or Western Europe, whilst offering the same level of clinical care in terms of genomic analysis, biological age testing and intravenous protocols.
| Programme / Service | Istanbul (Turkey) | United States | United Kingdom | Western Europe |
| WGS-based full service life extension programme (12 months) | 3,000–10,000 EUR | 30,000 – 80,000 US dollars | 25,000 – 60,000 GBP | 25,000 – 150,000 EUR |
| SNP panel + biomarker programme (12 months) | 1,000 – 5,000 EUR | 10,000–25,000 US dollars | 8,000 – 20,000 GBP | 10,000 – 30,000 EUR |
| A single NAD+ IV session | 200–400 EUR | 400–1,200 US dollars | 300–900 GBP | 300–900 EUR |
| Single Myers’ Cocktail Session | 150–300 EUR | 250–700 US dollars | 200–600 GBP | 250–600 EUR |
| Epigenome biological age test | 500–1,500 EUR | 2,000–5,000 US dollars | 1,500 – 4,000 GBP | 2,000–5,000 EUR |
For international patients in Istanbul combining the longevity programme with other procedures, the cost advantage increases significantly. International patients visiting Dr Terziler’s Exclusive Clinic typically combine the Youngevity Reset Programme with other procedures. By having a hair transplant in Turkey during a single trip, you can complete both programmes at a cost equivalent to that of the longevity programme in the United States on its own.
With direct flight options from cities across the US, Europe, the Middle East and the Gulf, internationally accredited facilities and English-speaking doctors, it consistently ranks among the world’s top five medical tourism destinations.

Are Longevity Clinics Worth the Cost?
Yes, longevity clinics are worth the cost if the programme is managed by a doctor, tailored to your genetic and biological data, and structured around evidence-based interventions. However, if they offer device-based health packages or reports generated by algorithms without a doctor’s interpretation (which accounts for a significant portion of the current market), they are not worth the cost.
The economic rationale for longevity medicine is based on two calculations. The first is the balance between the cost of detection and the cost of treatment: A comprehensive longevity programme that identifies early-stage cardiovascular risk, pre-diabetic insulin resistance or genetic predisposition to a specific type of cancer can trigger interventions that prevent conditions whose acute treatment costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars. A preventative programme costing $25,000 that prevents a heart attack costing $150,000 is not an expense, but a return on investment.
The second calculation concerns the value of healthy life years. The monetary value of living an extra ten years in full cognitive and physical health cannot easily be quantified, but the effects of a decade spent in full health—such as increased economic productivity, improved quality of life and reduced healthcare costs—are measurable and significant for most individuals.
Programmes that are not worth paying for at life-extension clinics include: programmes that do not include a doctor’s interpretation of genetic results; programmes that generate algorithmic reports assigning percentage risk figures to individual variants without taking intergenic interactions into account; programmes that are device-focused rather than doctor-focused, and programmes that cannot tell you specifically which biological systems in your body are ageing the fastest and why.
“The question I’m always asked is whether it’s worth the cost. My answer is always the same: it depends entirely on what the programme actually entails. A programme that starts with your genome and builds on that has a fundamentally different clinical value to a fixed intravenous treatment menu applied to every patient who walks through the door.”

Check whether it’s worth it for you.
Are Longevity Clinics Covered by Insurance?
No, longevity clinic programmes are almost universally not covered by standard health insurance, including private health insurance in the United States, the United Kingdom and European Union countries. The reason for this is the clinical classification: most longevity medical interventions – including whole-genome sequencing for preventive purposes, NAD+ IV therapy, epigenomic biological age testing and ozone therapy – are classified within standard insurance frameworks as preventative or elective rather than medically necessary; these frameworks are designed to cover the treatment of diagnosed conditions rather than the prevention of future ailments.
Some exceptions do exist. In some countries, certain components of a longevity programme may be partially reimbursed. Some genetic tests carried out for a documented family history of hereditary cancers (e.g. BRCA1/2 testing) may be covered when requested by a doctor with a documented clinical indication. Some private health insurance policies, particularly executive health plans and certain premium international health insurance products, cover ‘preventative executive health assessments’, which may include biomarker blood tests, cardiovascular imaging and, in some cases, genomic panels. The scope of cover varies significantly depending on the policy and the country.
In Turkey, costs associated with long-term care programmes are not covered by insurance for those residing outside Turkey. Some patients request partial reimbursement from their insurance companies in their home countries for specific components, such as blood tests or imaging, by submitting detailed invoices; however, success rates vary.
The lack of insurance cover is one of the reasons why the price advantage in Istanbul is so significant: the out-of-pocket cost of a full WGS-based longevity programme in Istanbul—which is 50 to 70 per cent below US prices for the same level of clinical care—is is equivalent to or lower than the co-payments and excess costs a US patient would face for a US long-life clinic programme with partial insurance cover.
Do you need to plan your personal expenses before making a booking?
Ask them to clearly and explicitly state what is included, what is optional and what may require separate payment.
What should you look out for before paying for a longevity programme?
Before enrolling in any longevity clinic programme, there are seven questions to determine whether the price you are paying reflects the true clinical value.
- Which genetic analyses are included, and who interprets them? An SNP panel interpreted by an algorithm is not the same as Whole Genome Sequencing interpreted by a doctor. Be sure to ask the following questions in particular: how many variants are analysed, is the interpretation carried out by a doctor, and what happens when new research is published regarding the variants in my genome?
- Is there a named, qualified doctor who will oversee my protocol? Longevity medicine is a medical discipline led by doctors. If you cannot identify a specific doctor who will review your genetic data and guide your protocol, you are paying for a health package rather than a medical programme.
- Does the programme measure my biological age, and by what method? Biological age testing via epigenomic methylation analysis has been clinically validated. Programmes that claim to measure biological age via a questionnaire or a single biomarker panel are using the term loosely.
- What does the follow-up structure entail? A single diagnostic visit without follow-up does not constitute a longevity programme. Meaningful longevity medicine requires reassessment, protocol adjustments based on response, and a relationship built with the doctor over time.
- Are the selected intravenous (IV) protocols determined based on my specific data, or is a fixed menu applied? The most common reason for failure in mid-level longevity programmes is the application of the same IV protocol to every patient, regardless of their genetic makeup and biomarkers. Before making any payment, ask which protocols are being recommended to you and why.
- Is the pricing transparent, and what does it include, and what triggers additional costs? Some programmes advertise a low entry price but add significant additional costs for each component. Ask for a detailed price breakdown before committing.
- Can I review the doctor’s qualifications and published experience? The EEAT (experience, expertise, competence, trustworthiness) criteria apply just as much to choosing a doctor as they do to SEO. A programme managed by a doctor with documented academic and clinical experience in the field of genetic medicine is entirely different from one managed by a wellness specialist.

What Are the Most Cost-Effective Ways to Get Started with Longevity Medicine?
The most cost-effective entry points into evidence-based longevity medicine are structured lifestyle changes and doctor-reviewed supplements; both cost a fraction of the price of a clinical programme and, when implemented correctly, deliver real biological anti-ageing benefits.
The foundations of a healthy lifestyle—particularly 7 to 9 hours of regular sleep at night, strength training twice a week, an anti-inflammatory diet and daily application of SPF 50— have the strongest evidence base among longevity interventions and incur no cost other than time and commitment. The Blue Zones population study attributes approximately 80 per cent of the variation in longevity outcomes to lifestyle, with the remaining 20 per cent attributed to genetics.
Doctor-approved supplements represent the next accessible level. NAD+ precursors (NMN or NR), vitamin D3 combined with K2, omega-3 fatty acids and magnesium glycinate have the strongest evidence base amongst longevity supplements at affordable price points. An important caveat, however, is that the correct supplement protocol must be genetically personalised: variants in genes such as MTHFR, VDR, APOE and others significantly alter which supplements are beneficial and at what dosage. For a comprehensive, doctor-approved breakdown of the most evidence-based longevity supplements and what the research says about each one, see our guide. The best longevity supplements.
Personalised intravenous anti-ageing sessions represent the next accessible clinical step. The Myers’ Cocktail or, in Turkey, an intravenous (IV) session of glutathione plus vitamin C starts from 150 euros and offers targeted anti-ageing benefits that oral supplements cannot provide. This is the recommended starting point for patients who wish to experience the difference before embarking on a full programme.
Are you looking for the most cost-effective and clinically beneficial starting point?
Ask whether options such as a lifestyle assessment, supplement recommendations or a single session of intravenous treatment are the right starting point before beginning a full programme.

Frequently Asked Questions About Longevity Clinic Costs (Longevity)
– How much does a longevity clinic cost in the United States?
The annual cost of a longevity clinic in the United States ranges from 3,000 to 150,000 US dollars, depending on the scope of the programme. Entry-level programmes, which include a single diagnostic consultation and basic blood tests, start at approximately US$3,000 to US$7,000. Mid-tier programmes, which include genetic testing, intravenous protocols and doctor consultations, range from 10,000 to 30,000 US dollars per year. Premium programmes at leading US longevity clinics, which include comprehensive diagnostic units, genomic analysis and ongoing medical supervision, range from 30,000 to 150,000 US dollars per year.
How much does a longevity clinic cost in the UK?
The annual cost of longevity clinic programmes in the UK generally ranges from 5,000 to 60,000 GBP. The UK longevity clinic market has grown significantly since 2022, and there are now numerous doctor-led programmes available in London. Introductory programmes start at around 5,000 GBP for a comprehensive diagnostic assessment. Full programmes, which include genomic analysis and intravenous protocols, range from 15,000 to 40,000 GBP per year. The cost of longevity clinic programmes in Switzerland and Spain, which are also accessible to UK patients, ranges from 25,000 to 80,000 GBP.
+ How much does a longevity clinic programme cost in Turkey?
Longevity programmes offered under medical supervision in Istanbul start at 3,000 euros for the standard Youngevity programme (including a genetic panel, biological age test, IV protocol course and 12-month follow-up) start at 3,000 euros, whilst the full Genome Sequencing programme starts at 10,000 euros. Individual IV anti-ageing sessions start from 150 Euro. Pricing at longevity clinics in Turkey reflects the country’s healthcare cost structure rather than any differences in clinical depth, and is 50 per cent to 70 per cent lower than equivalent programmes in the US, the UK and Western Europe.
+ Are longevity clinics worth the cost?
Longevity clinics are worth the cost when they offer doctor-led protocols based on your specific genetic and biological data, rather than device-based health packages or reports generated by algorithms without a doctor’s interpretation. The clinical and economic rationale for genuine longevity medicine is strong: the early diagnosis of cardiovascular risk, pre-diabetes or genetic disease predisposition can prevent conditions that are far more expensive to treat acutely. Programmes that do not include a doctor’s interpretation of genomic data, a biological age assessment and a personalised protocol are significantly less likely to deliver this value.
+ Is a longevity test worth the cost?
Longevity tests are worth the cost only when they provide results that include not just a report, but also a doctor’s interpretation and a personalised protocol. Whole-genome sequencing with a doctor’s interpretation is a once-in-a-lifetime test: the data can be reanalysed indefinitely as science advances, which increases its value over time. The epigenomic biological age test is worth repeating annually or every two years to monitor the effect of interventions on the actual rate of biological ageing. Consumer genetic panels without a doctor’s interpretation have limited clinical value on their own.
+ What is the most cost-effective way to access longevity medicine?
The most affordable, evidence-based entry point to longevity medicine is lifestyle optimisation: sleep quality, strength training, an anti-inflammatory diet and daily use of SPF 50. These are free or virtually free and, according to Blue Zones research, account for approximately 80 per cent of the variation in longevity outcomes. The next accessible level consists of doctor-reviewed supplements containing NAD+ precursors, vitamins D3 and K2, and omega-3 fatty acids, costing between 50 and 200 euros per month. Individual intravenous anti-ageing sessions (Myers’ Cocktail, glutathione and vitamin C) start from 150 euros at Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic and are offered as standalone treatments.
+ Can a longevity programme really help you live longer?
Longevity programmes can measurably reduce biological age and lower the risk of the diseases that most commonly shorten both lifespan and healthy life expectancy: cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, neurological decline and cancer. The evidence for specific interventions – such as NAD+ supplementation for mitochondrial function, calorie optimisation for metabolic health, and lifestyle-based epigenomic modification – is robust in both animal models and a growing body of human trial data. No longevity programme under medical supervision can guarantee a specific increase in lifespan: this claim cannot be clinically substantiated. What the evidence does support is a significant reduction in biological age markers and disease risk when the programme is led by a doctor, guided by genetics, and maintained over time.
+ How much does NAD+ intravenous treatment cost?
At Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul, NAD+ IV treatment costs between 200 and 400 euros per session. In the United States and the United Kingdom, the cost of equivalent NAD+ IV sessions is generally between 400 and 1,200 US dollars. NAD+ IV therapy is one of the most evidence-based anti-ageing interventions currently available in clinical practice and, according to research by the National Institute on Ageing, restores the coenzyme responsible for mitochondrial energy production and DNA repair, which declines by approximately 50 per cent between the ages of 40 and 60. A series of sessions is recommended rather than a single infusion for lasting results.
+ How much does anti-ageing ozone therapy cost?
At Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul, anti-ageing ozone therapy costs between 150 and 350 euros per session. The 10x Ozone protocol, which concentrates the biological effects of ten standard sessions into a single session, is the premium option. In the US and Western Europe, the cost of ozone therapy sessions generally ranges from 300 to 900 US dollars. Ozone therapy supports tissue regeneration, reduces systemic inflammation and improves oxygen delivery to the blood vessels; all of which are directly related to the biological ageing process.
+ How much does Bryan Johnson’s longevity protocol cost?
It is estimated that the full personalised implementation of Bryan Johnson’s Blueprint longevity protocol, as publicly outlined, requires approximately 2 million US dollars per year in doctor’s time, tests, supplements and interventions. A simplified version of the core lifestyle and supplementation elements, however, is significantly less expensive and accessible to most people. The Blueprint’s core clinical principles—NAD+ supplementation, continuous biomarker monitoring, calorie optimisation and prioritising sleep—are implemented in longevity programmes under medical supervision at a fraction of this cost; for example, at Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul, with prices starting from 3,000 euros.
+ What is the most important habit for supporting longevity?
The only habit with the strongest evidence for longevity is consistent, high-quality sleep lasting 7 to 9 hours per night. Cellular repair, including the activation of NAD+-dependent DNA repair mechanisms, takes place during sleep. Chronic sleep deprivation of less than 7 hours per night is independently associated with accelerated biological ageing, increased telomere shortening, high cortisol levels and a significant increase in the risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and neurological decline. No supplement or clinical protocol can fully compensate for chronic sleep deprivation.
+ What is a longevity doctor and how much do they charge?
A longevity doctor is a physician specialising in preventive medicine, genetic medicine and biological age assessment, who focuses on extending healthy life expectancy rather than treating disease after it has developed. In the United States, consultation fees for a longevity doctor range from 300 to 2,500 US dollars per session, whilst fees for ongoing programmes range from 10,000 to 50,000 US dollars per year. In Istanbul, Turkey, longevity programmes run under the supervision of Dr Servet Terziler start at 3,000 euros for a 12-month full programme.
+ Which longevity clinics in Europe offer WGS-based programmes?
Many longevity clinics in Europe offer Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) as part of their programmes. These include Clinique La Prairie in Switzerland (25,000 to 80,000 euros for multi-day residential programmes) and certain specialist longevity medicine practices in Germany, Spain and the UK. In Turkey, however, Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul is currently the only longevity clinic offering full WGS (3 billion variant analysis) as a standard programme component for 10,000 euros. This represents the same level of genomic depth at a cost that is 70 per cent to 90 per cent lower than that of residential programmes in Switzerland.
+ Which is the best anti-ageing clinic in Turkey?
Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul is the only longevity clinic in Turkey to offer whole-genome sequencing (up to 3 billion variant analysis), organ-specific epigenome biological age testing, comprehensive microbiome analysis combined with red light therapy, and personalised peptide protocols; all of which are carried out under the supervision of a professor-level physician with over 20 years’ academic experience in the field of genetic medicine.
Can I combine the longevity programme with a hair transplant in Istanbul?
Yes. Dr Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul is uniquely positioned to offer both services in a single visit. International patients routinely combine their Youngevity Reset Programme consultation and initial genetic test with a hair transplant procedure.
