HAIR
TRANSPLANTATION-
Location:
ISTANBUL / TURKEY
Benefits
The results
are permanent. After the hair transplant has been performed,
additional surgical procedures will not be necessary. It
will give you that natural and younger-looking appearance
that has a positive psychological effect on everyone you
meet. This procedure can be cheaper than other approaches.
Surgical
technique
Many micrograft
hair transplant procedures can be performed with local anesthesia
and do not require a stay in the clinic once completed.
Other hair tissue shifting techniques, however, can only
be done with general anesthesia and will require that the
patient stay at least one night in the hospital.
Six weeks
after the micrograft has been done, the hair that was transplanted
will fall out and new hair will begin to grow within 3 months.
In order to achieve the desired hair density, it may be
necessary to perform more than one operation. During the
hair transplant procedure, a strip of skin with hair is
taken from the back of the neck and this strip is divided
into micrografts, pieces that contain one or more hair roots.
These grafts are implanted in bald areas or places where
the hair is thin. A very natural effect is achieved as the
hair growing from these transplanted micrografts lengthens.
 Your
choice of a plastic surgeon is very important. Because it
is a long-term procedure and requires meticulous planning,
success depends critically on your choice of an experienced
team with specialized training in the area of micrografting.
Your plastic surgeon will remove a strip from the productive
region on the back of the neck. The other members of the
team will divide this strip into micrografts on the table
while your plastic surgeon closes up the area on the back
of your neck. Then the plastic surgeon will prepare the
slots to put the micrografts in and the transplant procedure
will be performed by at least two accomplished personnel.
This simultaneous procedure reduces to a minimum the time
required. The transplanting of hair grafts must be performed
in a clinic specialized in this field with operation room
conditions and a sterile environment. Remember that a hair
transplant procedure is actually an operation.
Other
important points
The hair
on the back of the neck from which the strip of skin will
be removed must be thick enough. Individuals with larger
bald areas can combine this method with other surgical procedures.This
technique requires multiple and "extended" hair
transplant procedures performed over one or two years. There
may be swelling, bruising or mild pain a couple of days
after the procedure.There
may also be numbness lasting 2-3 months on the back of the
neck from which the strip of skin was removed. It may take
a couple of days to return to normal activity.
It is important
that one have realistic expectations after a micrograft
procedure. Individual hair types and characteristics, such
as wavy or curly hair, affect the result and the density
of the hair.
