How is hair transplantation performed with FUE method?
Although male pattern hair loss is a common condition in all societies, it is an important problem for many men and women. Hair loss in men can usually be seen as sparseness or significant balding in the hair at the top and forehead. People resort to many methods to prevent hair loss, to ensure that the lost hair grows again or to eliminate the appearance caused by hair loss.
Hair follicles are in a cycle consisting of a long period of development followed by a short period of rest. During the rest period, the hair strand is connected to the root, but the hair does not grow during this period. At the end of the rest period, the hair strand falls out and a new strand begins to grow from the hair follicle in its place. As the human age progresses, the rest period begins to lengthen. Normally, the development period lasts about 2-3 years, followed by a 1-2 week transition period and may last for 4-5 months.
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction)
One of the most important developments in the field of hair transplantation is the ability to perform hair transplantation with the advanced technique FUE Technique. With the FUE technique, it is much more natural than other methods without leaving any traces, and it allows to achieve successful results.
Before starting the hair transplantation process, the person's hair is completely cut and the person's head area is anesthetized with local anesthesia. A scalpel is not used in the donor area where the hair follicles will be removed, no sutures are taken because there is no incision process, and there is no trace in the donor area where the roots are taken. Hair follicles are taken one by one from the donor area with micro motors. The hair follicles obtained from the donor area are placed in the areas where they will be transplanted by opening channels. After the hair transplantation process is completed, the person can return home. The care he needs to do at home and the medications he needs to take are explained by our hair transplant specialist with an information. Hair should not be washed for two days after the procedure. At the end of this period, the transplanted area and its whole are cleaned with a special solution. Hair transplantation is an application that does not restrict daily activity. The patient should protect his head from the sun by wearing a baggy hat so as not to touch the transplanted area.

The FUE method is based on the principle of taking the grafts one by one with micro motors from the donor area (the nape between the two ears) and transferring them one by one to the area to be applied. Since there is no surgical cutting and suturing process, it does not leave any scars. Bleeding is less than other techniques.
