Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure that allows natural and permanent relocation of hair to thin or bald areas. Typically, hair follicles, in the form of small tissue pieces called "grafts," are harvested from the donor area (usually the back of the head and beard area) and then implanted into the recipient areas where they are needed.
In hair transplantation, the hair roots are extracted from the entire backside of the head, including above the ears and neck, which we call the donor area. The number of roots is determined according to the volume and quality of the bald area, and the extraction is done homogeneously. Since the extracted grafts from this particular donor area are immune to shedding from birth and are genetically coded against shedding, they do not shed and last a lifetime. Indeed, it is determined according to the knowledge and skills of the doctor who extracts these hair roots in a quality way and performs the hair transplant. Hair grafts are found in the donor region as a triple, double, and single hair. In addition, this grouped form differs from person to person. The important thing is to extract these grouped hair roots without cutting, destroying, and damaging them. People who do not have hair follicles in the donor area, either have been treated for cancer or are struggling with a different disease.
As a result, the transplanted roots never fall out again.
After the hair transplant has been done, our medical consultant assistant will, without stint, follow the whole process with you until you achieve the best result. We will describe to you the growth process of all the hair grafts, respectively.
1-On the 10th day, the process of cleaning scabs will be done.
2-After one month, implanted hair begins to shed moderately.
3-The implanted hair enters the shock hair loss during the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th month, called the resting phase. During this process, you will face a view as if no hair transplant has been done.
4-At the end of the 4th month, the implanted roots will gradually start to grow progressively, and each month will grow faster and more hair than the previous month.
5-In the 7th month, almost 70% of the transplanted hair ultimately grows.
6-All transplanted hairs may take 12 months for the front zone and 14 months for the crown region to grow
The regrowth period of the transplanted hair may vary from person to person. It is a fact that hair roots come out earlier or later than expected, depending on a person's habits such as smoking, alcohol, drugs, and eating habits.
Before the hair transplantation, the estimated number of hair grafts is given after the evaluation of pictures by doctor. We do not want to raise expectations too much, as the pictures can often mislead hair transplant doctors. Therefore, we do not want to give you the wrong information by saying a little less than the number of grafts we can implant. However, we work with the maximum number of hair grafts in every operation. While performing this extraction process, it is done completed by paying attention to the homogenization without harming the donor area. The number of grafts is essentially determined by the size of the person's planting area and the quality of the donor area. Of course, it is imperative how many grafts will be implanted, but implantation in good health is at least as necessary as the number of grafts. The grafts are found in groups in the donor area; they will come out simultaneously if you extract and implant them with their group. But if you cut these grouped grafts, for example, if you extract a graft with three hairs, reducing the number of hair strands to 2 or 1 will not be a successful hair transplant. No matter how high the number of grafts is, it is impossible to achieve a successful planting if they are not taken in good quality.
Hair transplantation is generally considered a permanent solution. The transplanted hair, which typically consists of hair follicles taken from the donor area, does not fall out. The hair follicles in the donor area are genetically programmed to be permanent, so they do not have a tendency to shed. Therefore, there is no hair loss in the areas where hair transplantation is performed.
