It is a procedure that involves harvesting healthy hair follicles from areas such as the back of the head and transplanting them to areas of hair loss or the hairline.
Hair transplantation is a procedure in which hair follicles genetically resistant to hair loss, such as those from the occipital region, are harvested and transplanted to the hairline, crown, or bald areas. The transplanted hair retains its original characteristics and grows permanently.
There are two methods: the incisional method (FUT), which involves incising the scalp to separate hair follicles, and the non-incisional method (FUE), which involves harvesting follicles one by one using a punch. The choice depends on factors such as scarring, recovery, and the number of follicles to be transplanted.
After transplantation, hair temporarily falls out (shock hair loss) and then grows back after several months, and the final results become apparent in about 9 to 12 months.
The transplanted area requires protection for several days immediately after transplantation, and separate medication is recommended to manage the progression of existing hair loss.
Since hair follicles from the occipital region, which are resistant to hair loss, are transplanted, the transplanted hair retains its properties and grows permanently. Separate management is required for existing hair loss.
After transplantation, hair temporarily falls out (shock hair loss) and new hair grows back after several months, with the final result appearing in about 9 to 12 months.
