Hair Transplant
Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure under local anesthesia, in which hair follicles are removed from the hair-rich part of the head to replant them on another part that lacks hair.
Hair transplantation aims to treat genetic baldness, hair loss in diseases such as alopecia, and also to intensify chest hair or beard
The process continues for 4 to 6 hours, depending on the number of transplanted grafts, with a break every two hours
Rest after the operation for two days.. and resume all activities, including sports, after 30 days
Hair transplant techniques
FUE technique
The extraction technique consists in removing the hair follicles from the donor area, which are then transplanted individually.
Sapphire technology
The Sapphire technique is an advanced procedure of the classic FUE technique.
This technique provides greater comfort, faster recovery, and no marks or scars.
But this technology takes longer and costs a little more than the older technology.
In this way, the extracted follicles are implanted into pre-prepared incision sites.
Choi DHI pen technology
Hair transplantation is done directly using special needles known as Choi pen. This tool allows the doctor to control the implantation depth, angle and direction step by step for each hair follicle.
This technique does not require the head to be shaved and is performed without the need for any incision, which leaves no scars and results in a completely natural and dense result.
Hair transplantation for women
One of the main causes of hair loss in women is the increase in androgen hormone (the male hormone).
The most used technique for hair transplantation for women in Turkey is the FUE technique .
preoperative stage
The patient undergoes a preoperative consultation that allows him to discuss his wishes with the surgeon more precisely. Our doctors check the capillary density of the head and also perform trichoscopy.
The surgeon will ask you about your expectations in terms of a future hairstyle that will be necessary to develop your medical profile.
A hair transplant doctor explains what is possible and what is not in order to achieve an aesthetically sensible and successful strategy in the short, medium and long term.
postoperative stage
The patient may feel pain at the level of the scalp, and may need to take medication after the hair transplant , including:
- Painkillers
- Antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection
- Anti-inflammatory medications to reduce swelling
Most patients can resume work several days after hair transplant in Istanbul.
It is normal for the transplanted hair to fall out two to three weeks after the surgery, which stimulates the growth of new hair.
Most people will notice new hair growth 8 to 12 months after surgery.
