Hair Transplant at Private Akif Mehmetoglu Clinic

Hair transplant is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of healthy hair follicles from a donor area and their transplantation to a recipient area that has experienced hair loss or thinning. At our clinic, we perform hair transplants using three different methods: FUE, DHİ, and SAPPHİRE.

FUE, or Follicular Unit Extraction, is a minimally invasive hair transplant method that involves the extraction of individual hair follicles from the donor area using a special instrument. These follicles are then transplanted to the recipient area using a microsurgical technique.

DHİ, or Direct Hair Implantation, is a hair transplant method that involves the extraction of hair follicles from the donor area using a specialized tool and their direct transplantation to the recipient area. This technique does not require the creation of incisions or holes in the recipient area, resulting in a quicker recovery time.

SAPPHİRE, or Sapphire FUE, is a variation of the FUE technique that utilizes a specially designed sapphire blade to make incisions in the recipient area. This method results in less tissue trauma and minimal scarring, leading to a faster recovery time and a more natural-looking result.

Before the hair transplant procedure, our dermatology specialist doctor will perform an examination to evaluate the patient's hair loss and determine the most appropriate treatment plan. We prioritize planning before the procedure to ensure that the patient receives the best possible results.

In addition to the procedure itself, we provide our patients with a range of services to ensure their comfort and well-being. This includes a three-night stay at a hotel, VIP transfer, post-operative care products, online consultation, and an interpreter to assist with communication.

Overall, our goal is to provide our patients with a safe, comfortable, and effective hair transplant procedure that meets their individual needs and results in a natural-looking, healthy head of hair.

What you need to know about Hair Transplant in Istanbul

Hair Transplantation, also known as hair restoration surgery, is the surgical process of moving hair follicles from one part of the body that is rich in hair (known as a donor site) and embedding them at the the bald area of the head (recipient site). The medical course of action that aims at addressing hair loss issues and improving aesthetics. While there are many causes of hair loss, the most common reason, especially for men, is genetics. Hereditary hair loss as men age is the number one leading factor of baldness.

It is a minimally invasive procedure, performed under local anesthetic and is most commonly used to treat male baldness, but the technique can also be used to restore eyelashes, eyebrows, beard hair and to fill in scars. The procedure usually lasts between 4 to 8 hours, depending on the number of grafts needed. This procedure is a long-term solution to hair loss, with most patients experiencing significant improvement in hair growth after six months to a year. 

What's the Recovery Time for Hair Transplant Procedures in Istanbul?

Your scalp will continue to be sensitive to pain for a few days, during which time you should continue to take the medications provided by the doctor. On top of the pain killers and anti-inflammatory meds, you may also be given antibiotics to lessen the risk of infection, as uncommon as this may be.

You should expect to return to work and your daily routine, including exercise, after 5 days. However, the signs of a hair transplant will remain for at least another 2-3 weeks, at which point the newly transplanted hairs will start to fall out - but don't be alarmed! This is to be expected as you've just had a follicle extraction, so dead hair will simply make way for new hair over the coming weeks and months.

If the average person's hair only grows at a centimeter per month, then it will take some time before you can wear your hair long again. You could expect to display short and consistent hair just 4-6 weeks after the treatment.

What's the Success Rate of Hair Transplant Procedures in Istanbul?

The success rate for hair transplants is one of the highest, at 98% and is considered the only truly effective remedy for hair loss. 

The effectiveness of Hair Transplant treatments is significantly shaped by the surgeon's expertise who executes the process. A seasoned and competent surgeon employs sophisticated methods to prevent harm to the transplanted hair follicles during the process, which leads to a higher likelihood of success. Additionally, the ability of the surgeon to place the grafts in an attractive manner that resembles natural hair growth further enhances the perceived successfulness of the result. 

Beyond the competency of the surgeon, the overall health status and lifestyle choices of the patient greatly impact the treatment's effectiveness. Subpar habits such as excessive smoking and alcohol intake can obstruct the recovery process and influence the result adversely. Illnesses like diabetes can also interfere with the likelihood of success. 

Consideration of the donor hair's quality is another aspect that may affect the success of the procedure. Generally, those with robust, plentiful hair in the donor region have a higher success rate as compared to individuals with sparse or poor-quality hair. The availability of more follicles for transplantation yields better results. A detailed examination is carried out before the Hair Transplant to verify the quantity and quality of the donor's hair.
