In hair transplantation centers under the supervision of doctors affiliated with the Ministry of Health, the following procedure is followed:
1) First, all hair is shaved and completely cut off.
2) Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure. Although the patient is awake during the procedure, the area to be transplanted is numbed with local anesthesia and the patient feels almost no pain.
3) Hair follicles in the donor area are removed and kept in a special solution. The number of hair follicles to be removed from the donor area is directly proportional to the number of grafts to be transplanted.
Hair follicles are removed with a punch biopsy procedure. The biopsy pen works with a very sensitive motor.
The apparatus at the end of the punch biopsy pen can be changed according to the structure of the donor area. While thicker-tipped apparatus is used in some areas, thinner apparatus can be used in some areas.
4) The hair front line, which is the line that appears at the point where our forehead and hair meet, is determined. Determining this line correctly is very important for the result you will get from hair transplantation to look natural.
The person's face shape, age and gender are the main factors that determine the front hairline.
Its indentations and protrusions should be taken into account, the natural growth direction of the hair, the patient's expectations and whether the hair loss continues should be calculated together.
This process requires experience in particular so that it is not expected that the hair transplantation has been done and the person has natural looking hair. Otherwise, the grass man appearance can be very obvious that the person has had a hair transplant.
5) Channels are opened in the area where the transplantation will be made according to the shape and direction of the hair growth before it fell out. Transplantation is started in the areas where the hair channels have been opened.
An experienced team pays attention to the following points while performing the transplantation.
More or less grafts should not be transplanted in a way that will deviate from the natural appearance.
Hair follicles should be distributed asymmetrically, not in a certain order that is suitable for the nature of the hair.
If there are not enough grafts in the donor area, the grafts at hand should be evaluated well, and the hairline and the top areas of the scalp should be transplanted more densely because these areas are the first to attract attention.
6) After the hair transplantation is completed, the area where the roots were taken is closed and the points to be considered after the hair transplantation are shared with the person.
