FUE Hair Transplant

FUE Hair Transplant (follicular unit extraction) is a current technique used worldwide for the permanent solution of hair loss and baldness problems. FUE Hair Transplant, which is a three-stage procedure, is based on the principle of transplanting hair roots (grafts) collected from the hairy area on the head to areas experiencing hair thinning. Thanks to FUE Hair Transplant, people experiencing hair loss, by dedicating only 7-8 hours of their time, obtain natural, healthy and full hair made from their own hair roots, which they can use for a lifetime. FUE Hair Transplant, which is among the most preferred aesthetic applications by men today; allows both men and women to obtain healthy hair that looks as natural as their own hair in a safe, painless, quick and comfortable way.

FUE Hair Transplant, which has been safely applied worldwide since 2004; can also be applied in combination with other methods that increase comfort and patient satisfaction, such as Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant, unshaven hair transplant and sedation hair transplant.

Collection of hair roots:
After consultation and planning, the hair is shaved and the person is prepared for the hair transplant procedure.
The donor area from which hair roots will be collected is disinfected and anesthetized with local anesthesia.
The reason for collecting hair roots from the nape area is that the roots in this area have a very strong structure and never fall out. This ensures that the results of the FUE Hair Transplant procedure are permanent.
The healthiest and most suitable roots are collected from the donor area using very fine-tipped micromotors. The collection of roots in a manner suitable to their exit angle from the channel (follicle) in which they are located and without damage plays a major role in increasing the success rate of the hair transplant procedure. At this stage, the doctor's expertise and manual skill come into play.
Healthy hair roots are removed from the donor area in a manner suitable to their exit direction; without breaking, damaging and without harming the surrounding roots. If the donor area is suitable, 2000-2500 roots can be collected in one session.
Each hair root contains approximately 2.7 hair strands. This means that approximately 6,000 hair strands are implanted in a hair transplant operation. While the team carefully collects hair roots on one hand, on the other hand they quickly clean them and place them in a special solution.

Opening channels in the area where implantation will be performed:
In the second stage of the FUE Hair Transplant technique, the area where implantation will be performed, i.e., where channels will be opened, is sterilized and anesthetized with local anesthesia.
The doctor opens very small microchannels with steel slits in pen form (openers) in the area where hair transplant will be performed, at a determined number and at an angle suitable to the natural exit direction of the hair.
These barely visible channels heal a few days after implantation; after at most ten days, no trace of the procedure remains.

Implanting the collected roots into the opened channels:
In FUE Hair Transplant, the collected hair roots are individually implanted in a manner suitable to the natural exit direction of the opened channels and the hair in that area, with the meticulousness of a jewelry expert.
In this process that requires considerable attention, the team's synchronized work and manual skill are of great importance.
In FUE Hair Transplant, all these procedures are completed on the same day, within 7-8 hours. If the person does not have any aesthetic concerns on the day of the hair transplant, they can easily return to their social life.

FUE Hair Transplant is a minimally invasive technique. The procedure of collecting and transferring hair roots through small micro holes shortens surgical intervention and healing time.
No stitches or incisions are made during the FUE procedure. For this reason, no stitch marks form. At the same time, the marks from hair roots are very small and heal quickly.
FUE Hair Transplant allows hair roots to be collected and implanted individually. This ensures that the hair has a natural density and distribution, ensuring that the results look natural.
FUE is suitable for different hair types and colors.
FUE Hair Transplant is performed painlessly and without pain under local anesthesia.
The healing process after FUE Hair Transplant is generally rapid. It is possible to return to normal daily activities within a few days after the operation.
The donor area from which hair roots are collected heals faster with the FUE method and generally returns to its normal appearance after a short period of time.
FUE Hair Transplant allows hair roots to be carefully selected and placed, which allows for personalization of the procedure and obtaining results suitable for each patient's needs.

The difference between FUE Hair Transplant and DHI becomes evident in the method of graft placement: In FUE, grafts are collected individually from the donor, channels are opened in the implantation area and grafts are placed in these channels; that is, the channel opening and placement stages proceed separately. In DHI, however, grafts are generally collected similarly, but since channel opening and placement can be done simultaneously with a special implanter pen, in suitable cases, angle-depth control and especially thickening applications between existing hair can provide more practical work. However, which method is more appropriate depends on factors such as the width of the bald area, the targeted density, the number of grafts, donor capacity and the team's experience; the most important factor determining the results is proper planning and quality application.

The time to achieve the targeted results in hair transplant varies depending on your hair and skin structure, age and the rate of hair loss. Within approximately three months, the implanted hair begins to show itself. Within 6-7 months, 70% of the hair emerges. Although hair varies from person to person, it takes its final form within approximately one year as planned. Applying supportive hair treatments after hair transplant accelerates this process.
