Which tests are used in longevity-focused care processes?

The longevity assessment begins with a detailed clinical consultation. Before any treatment commences, a precise biological profile is established through comprehensive measurements—including advanced hormone testing, whole-body imaging (MRI), metabolic assessment, and cellular health screenings. Hormone profiles, biological age, and metabolic health are considered in conjunction, with results evaluated through a holistic approach rather than in isolation. At Dr. Ebru Ünal’s clinic in Istanbul, a personalized roadmap for longevity and hormone care is developed based on these findings. Consequently, no two patients in our "Unal Vitality Longevity Camp" program follow the exact same protocol, as every regimen is uniquely tailored to the individual.At Ebru Ünal, MD’s clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, within the Unal Vitality approach, clinical assessment forms the foundation of a personalized longevity program, attracting both local and international patients seeking longevity care in Istanbul.

In the longevity approach, clinical assessment is conducted from a holistic perspective that encompasses biological balance, hormone profiles, metabolism, and lifestyle factors. The goal is not to focus on a single parameter, but to understand the body as a whole. At the Dr. Ebru Ünal Clinic in Istanbul—which operates using the Unal Vitality system—these assessments help create a personalized roadmap based on the data obtained.

Which Areas Are Evaluated in a Longevity Assessment?

What tests are performed at Longevity?

The tests used in the Longevity approach aim to understand the body's overall balance and the aging process. The goal is to holistically assess a person's current condition.

Why are longevity tests different from standard blood tests?

Longevity tests are not only done to identify normal or abnormal values; they are evaluated together to understand how the body works.

What is assessed during the initial longevity examination?

The initial examination includes a review of health history, lifestyle, and general well-being. Test results are interpreted in conjunction with this information.

Why is longevity assessment done on a personalized basis?

Each individual has a different biological makeup and different needs. Therefore, longevity assessment is not standardized but is planned individually for each person.

Does hormonal imbalance affect the aging process?

Yes. Long-term hormonal imbalances can reduce the body's ability to recover. This can cause the aging process to progress more rapidly.

Could low energy levels be related to hormones?

Persistent fatigue and weakness may be related to hormonal imbalances. Thyroid and stress hormones, in particular, play a significant role in this.

Why do hormones change as we age?

Hormone production can naturally decrease with age. However, stress, lifestyle, and environmental factors can accelerate this change.

Are longevity tests and initial examination procedures available in Istanbul?

Yes. In Istanbul, the Unal Vitality approach, implemented by Dr. Ebru Ünal, involves personalized longevity tests and initial examinations.
