Hair Transplantation

According to the different needs of people, the recommended treatment methods and scope for hair loss may vary. As a treatment method offered as a solution to hair loss, hair transplantation is carried out in the form of transplanting hair follicles located on the nape or any part of the body to places where there is clarity and sparseness. In this procedure, which is performed by specialists in the operating room under sterile conditions, the openings in the crown and forehead are treated by removing the hair follicles from the stronger areas one by one after local anesthesia and transplanting them where needed. This process is not painful and can take about 4-6 hours depending on the size of the area to be planted. It is extremely important that the technique applied is correct, and that the newly planted hair adapts to the scalp and grows in a healthy way.

A few weeks after hair transplantation, the hair will fall out, but the hair follicles will remain in place. After shedding hair, new hair will grow from the hair follicles that settle on the skin in a healthy way.
