Editorial Policy

This page explains who publishes albaniahairclinic.com, how the information on it is produced, who is named on it, and what we will and will not publish. It applies to every article, guide and treatment page on this website.

Who publishes this website

albaniahairclinic.com is published by Albania Hair Clinic, a hair transplant clinic based in Tirana, Albania. We are the clinic that provides the treatments described on this website, so these pages are written by the provider, not by an independent third party. We say so plainly because it affects how you should read them.

This website is published in Italian, English and Albanian. Where a page exists in more than one language, the versions are meant to say the same thing. If you find a discrepancy between them, please tell us.

What this website is, and what it is not

Everything we publish is general information about hair loss, hair transplantation and related treatments. It is not medical advice, not a diagnosis, and not a treatment recommendation for any individual. No page here replaces a consultation with a qualified doctor who has examined you and reviewed your medical history. If you have a health problem, speak to a qualified healthcare professional. In an emergency, contact your local emergency service immediately.

How an article is produced

Our production process has four steps, and every published page has been through all four:

  1. Topic and research. We choose topics from the questions patients actually ask us, and gather what is known about them from our clinical experience and from published external sources.
  2. Drafting. Drafts are produced with the help of AI writing tools. We use them as a drafting aid, not as a source of facts, and we disclose it here rather than leaving you to guess.
  3. Human editing and fact checking. No AI draft is published as it arrives. A member of our team reads it, removes anything it cannot support, checks every figure and every claim against a source, and rewrites what needs rewriting. Claims we cannot source are deleted, not softened.
  4. Attribution. Each article records a named author, and clinical topics also record a named medical reviewer. Both names are shown on the article itself.

Who is named on our articles

Every article on this website carries the name of the person who wrote it, and clinical articles also carry the name of the clinician who reviewed it. The clinical team, with each clinician's field, is published on our Our Surgeons page. We publish our clinicians under their first name and surname initial, which is how they are identified in our records and on this website.

What we will not publish

These are hard rules, not preferences:

  • No invented statistics, and no number attributed to an organisation that did not publish it.
  • No invented patient cases, invented quotes or invented testimonials.
  • No promise or guarantee of a particular result. Hair transplantation is a medical procedure and outcomes differ between individuals.
  • No before-and-after photograph presented as a typical or expected result. Each one shows an individual case at a point in time — you can see them in our before and after gallery.
  • No qualification, membership or accreditation claimed for a clinician unless we hold the document behind it.

Dates, updates and corrections

Articles carry the date they were published. When we revise a page in a way that changes its meaning, we update it rather than quietly replacing it, and we do not backdate. Medical information ages, so pages are revisited and refreshed. If you believe something on this website is inaccurate, out of date or misleading, please tell us — the process is set out in our Corrections Policy.

Where our facts come from

How we choose, use and link external sources is set out in our Sourcing Policy. Whether and how we would publish paid or sponsored material is set out in our Sponsored Content and Advertising Policy. How images on this site are licensed and credited is set out in our Image Licence and Attribution Policy.
