What is hair transplantation?
Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure that involves moving the patient’s own hair follicles from the nape of the neck or above the ears to the desired area. Therefore, the transplanted hair is real hair that can grow naturally.
Who is hair transplant suitable for?
1. Individuals experiencing hair loss, thinning hair, receding hairline, and hereditary baldness.
2. Individuals experiencing severe hair loss, thinning hair, receding hairline, and baldness due to DHT hormone levels.
3. Those who cannot treat hair loss or thinning with other methods such as medication, injections, or laser treatment.
4. Individuals who have lost confidence due to thinning hair, receding hairline, and baldness.
5. People with scars may have difficulty growing hair naturally.
6. For those who desire a treatment for hair loss, thinning hair, and baldness with noticeable and permanent results.
What is a hair graph (Graft)?
A hair graft is a clump of hair, or hair tissue, that a doctor extracts using a special tool for hair transplantation. Each graft contains approximately 1-4 hair follicles. This means that if you see an advertisement online saying “hair transplant 1 graft,” it doesn’t necessarily mean one hair follicle. Typically, a maximum of 2,000 grafts can be transplanted per procedure. However, the exact number depends on the area to be transplanted and the doctor’s discretion. The
most commonly used grafts are from the nape of the neck or behind the ears, as these areas have the strongest grafts, resulting in the most natural-looking results. MEDA
Procedures and methods for FUE with DHI Hair Transplant technique.
The specialist will administer a local anesthetic or give the patient a mild sedative, and then begin the hair transplant treatment using the FUE with DHI Hair Transplant technique with a special punch instrument.
A small needle, 0.6-0.9 millimeters in size, is used to puncture the scalp around the designated hair follicle, penetrating deep into the hair root. Hair follicle cells from the back of the head are selected and extracted. The doctor then makes another small incision (0.6-0.9 millimeters) on the scalp where hair transplantation is desired and calculates the number of grafts (hair follicle cells) to replace the existing ones, similar to a hair follicle transplantation technique.
The hair transplant procedure requires meticulous precision and specialized skill from the doctor because if the doctor is not skilled in drilling, the hair follicle cells may be damaged. Besides causing problems for the hair follicle cells, this can result in unnatural-looking new hair growth and negatively impact the treatment lifespan.
Although this method uses a robot to collect the resulting graphs, every step of the process must be performed by a specialist physician. This means that the heart of this method lies with the treating physician and their skilled assistant team. FUE with DHI Hair Transplant techniques are divided into two types:
Treatment provided by a specialist physician.
Treatment by robot or a combination of techniques.
It is certain that the results and differences depend primarily on the person overseeing the treatment. The FUE with DHI Hair Transplant technique requires meticulous attention to detail and precision. After the FUE with DHI Hair Transplant procedure, patients should avoid touching, wiping, or washing the wounds, and must prevent the transplanted area from getting wet for 24 hours.
Advantages of hair transplantation
1. Increase self-confidence.
2. Long, thick, natural-looking hair.
3. Permanent eyebrow growth is achieved from the first treatment.
4. Transplanted hair is less likely to fall out.
5. You’ll look younger because hair growth contributes to a more youthful appearance.
Preparation before hair transplantation.
1. Clients should refrain from taking any medications, such as vitamins, at least 1-3 days before hair transplantation.
2. If you have any pre-existing conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure,
heart disease, etc., you must inform the doctor before hair transplantation.
3. We recommend that clients cut their hair short before hair transplantation (if this is not convenient, please inform the staff).
4. Refrain from consuming any alcoholic beverages 2-3 days before hair transplantation.
5. If you have any allergies to medication, please inform the doctor on the day of your consultation before hair transplantation.
6. You will need to have a blood test at least 3 days before hair transplantation.
7. On the day of hair transplantation, we recommend wearing a shirt with front buttons or a button-down shirt, and having a family member pick you up and drop you off (if this is not convenient, please inform the staff; the clinic provides pick-up and drop-off services).
Post-Hair Transplant Care Instructions
1. Immediately after the procedure, have the client lie on their back with a pillow at a 45-degree angle, in a straight position.
2. During the first 7-14 days, patients should eat soft foods (pork only), and strictly avoid alcohol, chicken, and eggs. They should also avoid foods that may cause inflammation or other adverse reactions such as crab, fermented fish, raw food, and pickled foods, as these may worsen the condition.
3. Refrain from exercising for the first 2-4 weeks.
4. Avoid swimming for 4 weeks. Avoid sports. Avoid strenuous work or work that involves excessive impact.
5. Avoid dust or prolonged sun exposure; stay in a cool place after hair transplantation.
6. After hair transplantation, you can shower and wash your face as usual (with caution).
7. Avoid touching the transplanted area at all costs.
8. After hair transplantation, clients should return to the clinic for wound cleaning every 3 days, and we will instruct them on the correct way to clean the wounds.
9. Clients can wash their hair 3 days after hair transplantation. The clinic will wash their hair for the first time and instruct them on the correct washing method using only baby shampoo. Washing daily is not recommended as it may cause the transplanted grafts to fall out easily. Washing every 2 days is recommended. This should be strictly followed for 3 months. After that, you can wash your hair daily.
10. After hair transplantation, the transplanted hairs will scab over and shed during the first 2-4 weeks. After that, the process returns to normal. The implanted hair follicles will not fall out with the hair strands; it takes approximately 4-6 months for the hair to grow. Do not pick or scratch the scabs under any circumstances.
Take zinc/biotin and vitamin supplements continuously for about 3-6 months.
11. After hair transplantation, clients should attend all scheduled follow-up appointments with the doctor to monitor the results.
Frequently asked questions about hair transplantation.
Do I need to take time off work for a hair transplant?
The hair transplant procedure is completed today, and you can go back to work the next day.
Do I need to shave my head before getting a hair transplant?
Only the nape of the neck needs to be shaved for the purpose of extracting the grafts. The area to be shaved will be about the size of one palm.
However, if you don’t want to shave a palm-sized area,
we have another method: concealing the scar by shaving to hide the piercing site.
How long does it take to see results after a hair transplant?
Hair transplant surgery is considered a 12-month project. The transplanted hair will fall out during the third week, then gradually begin to grow back, approximately 10-30%, in the third month, before reaching full growth in the 12th month or a full year.
