Hair Transplantation

One of the most common cosmetic problems today is hair loss. Although it is thought to be specific to men, it is a problem that women also face from time to time. It is normal to lose between 50 and 100 hairs on a daily basis. If there is a spill in the numbers above this, a specialist should be consulted. Although hair loss can be reduced or prevented with various hair treatments such as hair laser and PRP, hair transplantation is performed as a permanent solution for people who have experienced intense hair loss.

Hair transplantation is a natural and permanent solution to the problem of thinning and baldness caused by hair loss. With the hair transplant operation, hair follicles that are genetically resistant to shedding are collected from the nape of the patient and transplanted into the channels opened in the parts where baldness or thinning has occurred. Hair transplant operation is a microsurgical operation performed under local anesthesia. For this reason, it should be performed in a hospital environment and in the presence of an anesthesiologist.

Basic Stages Of Hair Transplantation 

Hair transplant operation is performed in three basic stages;

1. Collection of hair follicles

After the donor area is prepared for the procedure, the hair follicles are collected one by one with the FUE motor. In the meantime, it is very important that the roots are not damaged. Each of these roots, called grafts, contains an average of 2-3 hairs.

2. Opening of channels

Opening the channels at the right size and depth according to the area where they are located affects the rate of hair growth. Care should be taken to open channels suitable for the size and length of the hair follicle to be transplanted. The angle of the channel should also be well adjusted to achieve the most natural look.

3. Planting the roots in the opened channels

In the last stage, the collected follicles are placed one by one in the opened channels at 40 – 45 degree angles and the hair transplant operation is completed.

 The Most Popular Hair Transplant Technique: FUE method

The most up-to-date technology in hair transplantation is the FUE technique, which is a microsurgical procedure performed under local anesthesia in which the follicles are collected with the help of a micro motor. This technique is the basis for all hair transplantation methods.

The basic stages are the same in all hair transplantation techniques. The roots are taken, the channels are opened and the removed roots are planted in these channels. The differences that distinguish hair transplantation methods from each other are caused by the device used when removing the roots, the medical instruments used when opening the channels and during transplantation, and these differences lead to different naming of hair transplantation techniques.

Hair Transplant Operation And Post-Process 

 How many hours does the Hair Transplant Operation take and is it comfortable?

The operation takes an average of 6-7 hours. General anesthesia is not performed during the operation and anesthesia is not given to the patient. The patient, who is undergoing local anesthesia or sedation, receives the procedure by chatting.

 Is Pain Felt During Hair Transplant Operation?

Since hair transplantation is performed under local anesthesia, the feeling of pain or pain is minimal. Another method used in addition to local anesthesia is sedation. With sedation hair transplantation, we are able to offer a dream-like hair transplant experience to our patients who are easily excited and have a high level of anxiety.

How Many Days Should I Allocate for Hair Transplant Operation?

It will be sufficient for the patient to allocate 2 days for the hair transplant operation, taking into account the processes before and after. In this 2-day period;

• 1st day (transplantation):

Hair transplantation and PRP treatment procedures are completed in our hospital.

• 2nd day (Control and Solution Application Without Washing):

Our patient is re-hosted in our hospital and it is checked whether there is any damage, bleeding or infection in the roots. A special care solution in the form of a spray is applied to the area where hair transplantation is performed by our clinic’s specialist doctors and experienced team. With fast-healing hair transplantation, a brand new and comfortable recovery period is offered.

• Process after the 2nd day

The spray solution, which has moisturizing, germ-breaking and wound-healing properties, is sprayed 10-15 times every 3 hours for 6-7 days after hair transplantation and applied with very light touches. 9-10 days after hair transplantation, the scalp heals almost completely and sheds its crusts.

Full results take place in a period of 6 months to 18 months.
