Hair transplantation is the process of transplanting hair follicles, usually from the back or side of the head, to bald areas. The most common methods are FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation).
Individuals who experience hair loss, have sufficient donor areas and are in good general health are suitable candidates for hair transplantation.
Hair transplantation is performed under local anesthesia, so there is no pain during the procedure. However, there may be slight sensitivity after the procedure.
Recovery after hair transplantation usually takes 7-10 days. Crusting and redness will subside within this time.
Hair transplantation is usually a permanent solution as healthy hair follicles taken from the donor area are used. However, the person's general hair loss status should be monitored.
The transplanted hair usually starts to grow from the 3rd month onwards and the final results are seen within 12-18 months.
The lower age limit for hair transplantation is usually around 20 years old, but there is no upper age limit. The general health status of the candidate is the determining factor.
Yes, hair transplantation provides a natural look. An experienced specialist designs the hairline and density to look natural.
The procedure time varies between 6-8 hours depending on the number of grafts to be transplanted.
For the first few days, the transplanted area should not be touched, heavy physical activities should be avoided, and the care instructions recommended by the doctor should be followed.
