Hair Transplantation with FUE Technique

1. Consulting and Planning

Before starting the FUE procedure, patients undergo a detailed counseling process. At this stage, the doctor assesses the patient's hair loss pattern, reviews their health history and discusses whether the procedure is in line with expectations. In addition, the number of hair follicles to be transplanted and the area where they will be placed are planned.

2. Preoperative Preparations

Local anesthesia is applied to the patient, so they do not feel pain during the procedure. The FUE technique is a procedure performed under local anesthesia. The area to be transplanted and the follicles to be removed are cleaned with antiseptic solutions.

3. Follicular Unit Removal

In the FUE procedure, hair follicles are removed one by one. Specially designed microsurgical instruments are used for this procedure. Each follicle is carefully selected and removed without damaging the surrounding tissue. This method leaves minimal scarring in the donor area and speeds up the healing process.

4. Preparation and Storage of Hair Follicles

The extracted hair follicles are stored in a special solution for the transplantation process. This process preserves the viability of the follicles and is important for a successful transplantation. Careful sorting and preparation of the follicles ensures effective placement during transplantation.

5. Transplantation of Hair Follicles

Very small incisions are made in the area to be transplanted and the follicles are placed one by one in these incisions. Placing the follicles in accordance with the natural growth direction ensures that the results look natural. This stage requires the experience and skill of the doctor.

6. Recovery and Aftermath

After hair transplantation with the FUE method, mild swelling and discomfort may be felt. This usually subsides within a few days. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days after the procedure. It takes a certain period of time for the transplanted hair follicles to hold and grow in a healthy way. Results are usually visible within 6 months to a year.

7. Advantages and Cautions

The FUE technique is preferred for its minimal scarring, fast healing process and natural-looking results. However, it is important that it is performed by an experienced doctor to achieve the best results. In addition, factors such as the cost of the procedure, the number of follicles required and the general health of the patient should be taken into consideration.

The FUE technique is considered an important innovation in the field of hair transplantation and can offer effective results in the right candidates. However, as with any surgical intervention, it is important to be informed about possible risks and side effects and to make a comprehensive evaluation before the procedure.
