Hair Transplant
Hair transplantation is a popular aesthetic procedure among men and women. Hair transplantation can help people with hair loss to regain their hair and have a fuller hair structure. The procedure involves taking hair follicles and placing them in the planting area. There are many methods of the procedure, and the most appropriate method will depend on the person's cause of hair loss, hair texture, and other factors.
Here is more detailed information about hair transplantation.
Hair Transplant Methodforward
Hair transplantation methods include FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) methods. In the FUE method, hair follicles are taken one by one and placed in the transplantation area. In the FUT method, a strip is taken from the scalp and hair follicles are separated from this strip. Hair follicles are then placed in the planting area.
Hair Transplant Process
Hair transplantation is performed under local anesthesia and usually takes a few hours. The process begins with the removal of hair follicles located behind or on the sides of the scalp. Then, the hair follicles taken are placed one by one in the transplantation area. After the procedure, the patient's hair is protected by dressing for a few days and normal hair care can be resumed after a few weeks.
After Hair Transplantation Care
After hair transplantation, patients need to follow a certain care routine to protect their hair and speed up the healing process. This routine includes massaging the scalp, and it is recommended to avoid activities such as swimming, sauna and sports for a while to avoid damaging the hair.
Hair Transplant Risks
Hair transplantation is generally a safe procedure, but as with any surgical procedure, there are risks. These risks include infection, bleeding, crusting, hair follicle growth or scarring in the transplant area. However, the vast majority of these risks are extremely rare in procedures performed by a properly trained and experienced physician.
Hair Transplant Cost
The cost of hair transplantation may vary depending on the level of hair loss, the size of the area to be treated and the method to be used . In addition, the experience of the doctor who will perform the procedure, the location of the office and other factors can also affect the cost. The cost of hair transplantation is usually determined regionally and is charged per hair transplantation session.
Hair Transplant Results
The results of hair transplantation depend on the hair structure of the person who had the procedure, the skin structure and the transplantation method. However, usually after a few months, the hair follicles settle in their new places and new hair begins to grow. During the first few weeks, a slight crusting and redness may be seen in the planting area. Within a few months after the procedure, the hair will become thicker and fuller. After hair transplantation, it is recommended that patients continue their normal hair care and shave their hair regularly.
Hair Transplant Candidates
Suitable candidates for hair transplantation are people who usually experience hair loss due to genetic reasons or who experience hair loss as a result of trauma or burns. The procedure can also be preferred by people who want to regenerate the hairline or achieve a fuller hair structure.
