Hair Transplantation

Hair loss is a common problem among men and women and can negatively affect self-confidence. Hair loss can occur due to a variety of reasons, including genetic factors, hormonal changes, aging, stress and certain health problems. Hair transplantation is an effective surgical procedure that offers a permanent solution to hair loss. Hair transplantation is performed by transferring one’s own hair follicles or healthy hair follicles taken from areas without hair loss to areas where the hair is sparse or completely lost. Thanks to hair transplantation, the density of the person’s hair is increased and a fuller and more aesthetic hair appearance is achieved. This procedure is preferred by many people with hair loss as it provides natural and permanent results.

Hair Transplantation Procedure and Its Effects

Hair transplantation is performed by a specialist plastic surgeon or hair transplant specialist. Before the procedure, the patient’s hair loss status is evaluated and the suitability of hair transplantation is determined. The most common methods for hair transplantation are called FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation). The FUE method is a method in which individual hair follicles are extracted through a punch and transplanted one by one to the areas where they are needed. The FUT method is a method in which a strip of skin and hair follicles are taken from the nape of the neck and then the hair follicles are separated and transplanted. The FUE method is generally preferred because it is less invasive. During the hair transplantation procedure, the patient is given local anesthesia so, the procedure is painless and comfortable. After hair transplantation, there may be some crusting and redness in the area where the hair follicles were transplanted. However, the healing process is usually fast and the person can return to his/her daily life after the procedure.

After hair transplantation, the person’s hair starts to grow naturally and permanent results are achieved. Since the hair follicles transplanted after the procedure are resistant to hair loss, the person will have permanent hair for life. After hair transplantation, the hair density of the person increases and a fuller and more aesthetic hair appearance is achieved. Thanks to hair transplantation, the hairline of the person is corrected, hair density is increased and the gaps caused by hair loss are closed. This increases self-confidence and has a positive effect on social life.

As a result, hair transplantation is an effective surgical procedure that offers a permanent solution to people with hair loss. Hair transplantation increases the density of hair and helps to achieve a fuller and more aesthetic hair appearance. Hair transplantation should be performed by a specialist plastic surgeon or hair transplant specialist and a detailed evaluation process should be carried out before the procedure. Hair transplantation improves the quality of life and eliminates the lack of self-confidence caused by hair loss. However, as with any surgical procedure, it is important to remember that hair transplantation has risks and possible complications and it is crucial to make a careful evaluation before making a decision.
