Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure in which hair follicles are taken from a healthy area and transplanted to the areas where hair loss or baldness occurs..

What is Hair Transplant?

Hair transplantation is a surgical intervention performed on people with hair loss or baldness in order to regrow hair. This procedure involves taking hair follicles from areas where hair follicles are more dense and transplanting them to sparse or shedding areas. In hair transplantation, the patient’s own hair is usually used and the results provide natural-looking hair regrowth. This procedure is a widely used treatment method to solve hair loss problems in both men and women.

In which cases should hair transplant treatment be applied?

Hair transplantation treatment can be considered and applied in the following cases:

  • Androgenetic alopecia, i.e. male pattern hair loss, is a condition of thinning or loss of hair due to genetic factors. In such a case, you can apply for hair transplantation treatment
  • Hair loss occurs in women due to hormonal changes, aging or other reasons. When such a situation occurs, hair transplantation treatment can be applied.

There is a suitable hair transplant treatment option and technique for every situation. Hair transplantation in Turkey is performed according to a personalised plan, taking into account the person’s general health status, hair structure and expected results.

To whom can hair transplant be applied?

Candidates for hair transplantation are first evaluated for the applicability of this procedure as a result of their medical history and examinations. Individuals who are suitable for hair transplantation can be as follows:

  • Those who experience hair loss due to genetic or hormonal factors.
  • People who have had hair transplantation before but were not satisfied with the results.
  • Those with insufficient hair density or sparse hair.
  • Individuals who cannot devote enough time to hair care and treatments.
  • Those who experience hair loss or thinning due to different health problems.
  • People who are not pregnant.
  • Individuals without heart disease or chronic disease.

Am I a Suitable Candidate for Hair Transplant?

A detailed examination by a hair transplant specialist or plastic surgeon is required to assess whether you are a suitable candidate for hair transplantation. However, in general, suitable candidates for hair transplantation should meet the following criteria:

  • Ideal candidates are people with hair loss or baldness. The degree of hair loss may affect the suitability for hair transplantation.
  • The hair follicles and scalp of the person to undergo hair transplantation must be healthy. Hair follicles should be suitable for the growth of new hair after transplantation.
  • Since hair transplantation is a surgical procedure, candidates should be in good general health. Chronic health problems or serious medical problems can make hair transplantation risky.
  • Hair transplantation is generally preferred after the hair loss problem is completely settled. Therefore, it is important to determine the most appropriate time depending on the age of the candidate and the course of hair loss.
  • The hair follicles to be used for hair transplantation are usually taken from a healthy hair area called the donor area. It is important that the donor area can provide enough hair follicles.
  • To determine whether you are a suitable candidate for hair transplantation, you should consult a hair transplant specialist or plastic surgeon. The specialist will evaluate your hair structure, health status and expectations and recommend the most suitable treatment plan for you.

How is Hair Transplant Performed?

The hair transplant operation is performed in three 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 not to damage the follicles. Each of these follicles, called grafts, contains an average of 2-3 hair strands.

2. Opening the channels
Opening the channels in the right size and depth according to the area where the transplanted hair is located affects the growth rate. Care should be taken to open the appropriate channel for the size and length of the hair follicle. The angle of the channel should be adjusted well to achieve the most natural appearance.

3. Transplanting the roots into the opened channels
In the last stage, the collected roots are placed one by one in the opened channels at 40-45 degree angles and the hair transplant operation is completed.

What are Hair Transplant Methods?

Hair transplantation is performed with different methods in the light of modern technological developments in the collection and placement of grafts. These methods are applied in accordance with the size of the area to be transplanted and the needs of the patient. These techniques used in the collection and transplantation of hair follicles have been developed to achieve precise and natural results in hair transplantation. Hair transplantation methods we apply in our clinics:

Fue Hair Transplant

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplantation is a modern hair transplantation method in which hair follicles are extracted and transplanted one by one. In this method, healthy hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area (nape or sides of the head). Each follicle is a unit with natural groups and contains 1 to 4 hairs. These follicles are transplanted to the required areas. The advantages of the FUE method include minimal scarring, fast healing process and natural results.

DHI Hair Transplant

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplantation is a hair transplantation method in which hair follicles are directly implanted using a special pen, the Choi Pen. Choi Pen performs the processes of taking, storing and transplanting hair follicles with the same device. With this method, the grafts can be placed more precisely, so that the natural appearance of the hairline can be better shaped. The DHI method is preferred for fast recovery, minimal scars and natural results.

FUT Hair Transplant

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) is a hair transplantation method in which hair follicles are taken in strips and grafts are obtained from these strips. The grafts are separated into natural hair groups and transplanted to the required areas. In the FUT method, since hair is removed from a certain area, a stitch scar may remain in this area. However, this scar can usually be covered with hair. FUT can be preferred in cases where large graft amounts are required.

Women (Female) Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation in women is usually performed with methods such as FUE or DHI. Women’s hair loss can be in different patterns, and while the front line and forehead area are usually preserved, other areas may become sparse. In hair transplantation, it is aimed to achieve natural and aesthetic results for women by taking these special conditions into consideration.

Afro-American Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation for individuals with Afro hair structure should be performed in accordance with the natural shape of the hair. Afro hair is usually curly and thick. For this reason, hair transplant specialists take care to place hair follicles at the right angle and density, taking into account the Afro hair structure.

Unshaven Hair Transplant

Unshaven HT is a method in which the hair does not need to be completely shaved during the hair transplantation process. With this method, the areas to be transplanted are trimmed or cut in a certain way, but the hair is not completely shaved. In this way, patients can perform hair transplantation without shaving their hair.

Robotic Hair Transplant

Robotic Hair Transplantation is a method that performs the removal and transplantation of hair follicles using special robotic devices. Robots can take and place hair follicles more precisely. This method can help to place hair follicles at the right angle and density

Other HT Techniques

In the field of hair transplantation, different hair transplantation techniques are being developed with the ever-evolving technology and techniques. These techniques aim to optimise hair transplantation results by improving existing methods or adopting different approaches.

Each hair transplantation method has its advantages and disadvantages. To decide which method is most suitable for an individual, factors such as hair structure, personal preferences, expectations and the surgeon’s recommendations should be taken into account. Before making a hair transplant decision, it is important to have a comprehensive consultation with a specialised hair transplant doctor.
