Hair Transplant
Hair transplantation is a popular cosmetic surgery procedure that has received considerable attention in recent years. This procedure involves taking hair from a donor site and transplanting it onto a scalp with little or no hair. Hair transplantation has become more and more popular in recent years and people are using it to improve their appearance, boost their self-confidence and cure hair loss. Istanbul has become a popular destination for hair transplants and many people come to the city to get this procedure.
Hair transplant process
The hair transplantation procedure includes two main methods: follicular unit transplantation (FUT) and follicular unit extraction (FUE). FUT involves removing a strip of scalp from a donor site, usually at the back of the head. The strip is then cut into individual hair grafts, which are transplanted to the recipient site. FUE involves the removal of individual hair follicles from the donor site using a special tool and then transplanting them to the recipient site.
The technique used in a hair transplant procedure will depend on the needs of the patient, the nature of the hair loss, and the number of grafts needed. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes several hours, depending on the number of grafts needed.
Hair Transplant Safety
Hair transplantation is generally a safe procedure and the risks associated with it are minimal. To ensure the safety of the procedure, it is important to choose a reputable and experienced hair transplant specialist that Dr.Turka works with.

Frequently Asked Questions
During the transplantation of a patient's own hair, the existing hair is redistributed. The surgeon removes the hair root units that are genetically programmed for lifelong growth from the back of the head. These root units are then implanted in bald areas such as the high forehead. The hair root groups grow at the new location. The treatment can usually be finished in just one day, and it stays for life.

Hair transplantation requires a considerable amount of time and effort. The hair removal technique has a significant influence on the duration of the operation. The modern FUE technique with single hair removal takes considerably longer than the FUT technique with strip removal. If the hair root groups are removed individually during the FUE technique, the entire treatment can take up to two days in more extensive cases but delivers a much better result
Hair loss only becomes visible when about 50% of the hair has fallen out. The natural hair density has up to 100 hair root units per cm². However, a natural appearance can be achieved from as little as 25 units per cm², which can be achieved by a successful hair transplantation operation. Our clients consult with our medical specialist at Dr. Turka to decide if the right time has come for hair transplantation.
Yes! Since the transplantation is merely a redistribution of your hair, its structure and growth will be the same as the original hair. You should allow your hair to rest for two to three months after the hair transplantation. After that, you can style your hair as you wish.
