Renew Your Self Confidence
Are you tired of dealing with thinning hair or bald spots that affect your confidence and self-esteem? A hair transplant could be the solution you’ve been searching for. This minimally invasive procedure involves transferring healthy hair follicles from donor areas to areas experiencing hair loss or thinning. Whether you’re experiencing male pattern baldness, female pattern hair loss, or hair loss due to aging, a hair transplant can help restore your natural hairline and give you back the thick, full hair you desire. What’s more, undergoing a hair transplant in Turkey offers a cost-effective solution without compromising on quality. Our world-class facilities and experienced surgeons ensure that you receive the highest standard of care at a fraction of the cost compared to North America.
Techniques
The two primary techniques used in hair transplant procedures are Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT).
FUE: Individual hair follicles are extracted from the donor area using specialized instruments and then transplanted into the recipient site. This technique leaves minimal scarring and offers a quicker recovery time.
FUT: A strip of scalp containing hair follicles is harvested from the donor area and then dissected into individual follicular units for transplantation. While this technique may result in a linear scar, it can yield a higher number of grafts in a single session.
How It Works
1. Pre-operative Preparation
Before your hair transplant, you'll undergo a consultation with our expert surgeon to discuss your goals and expectations. You may be advised to avoid certain medications and lifestyle habits, such as smoking, to optimize healing.
2. Donor Hair Harvesting
Healthy hair follicles are carefully extracted from the donor area, usually the back or sides of the scalp, using FUE or FUT technique.
3. Recipient Site Preparation
Tiny incisions are made in the recipient area, following the natural hairline and pattern, where the hair will be transplanted.
4. Hair Transplantation
The extracted follicles are meticulously implanted into the recipient sites, ensuring proper placement and a natural-looking result.
5. Post-operative Care
Following your procedure, you'll receive instructions on caring for your scalp and transplanted hair. This may include gentle washing and avoiding activities that could disrupt the healing process.
