Hair transplantation can be defined as \u2018the permanent solution for hair loss\u2019.\u00a0A hair transplant operation can be expressed as; a microsurgical procedure that is performed in a hospital surgical setting.\u00a0The concept \u2018microsurgical operation\u2019 implies that; a hair transplant procedure will be carried out with minimal surgical intervention unlike traditional surgery.<\/p>\n
A hair transplant operation, is an effective and permanent solution for individuals experiencing \u2018male-pattern baldness\u2019 which is also referred to as androgenetic alopecia.\u00a0Apart from these, individuals who have scars or have lost hair due to various kinds of hair diseases can also safely undergo a hair transplant surgery.<\/p>\n
Every technique used in hair transplantation share basic principles.These principles are:<\/p>\n
Ensuring a significant aesthetic success during the process of harvesting the hair follicles is due to the distinctive aspect of the FUE technique. It is this innovation that has made FUE popular and preferred over FUT.\u00a0The FUT technique involves removing a small strip of tissue from the back of the head and extracting the individual follicular units from this strip, whereas in FUE, each follicular unit is individually taken directly from the scalp through small circular incisions.\u00a0By this way, the risk of injury is eliminated.<\/p>\n
Depending on the length of each follicular unit it is important to utilize needles that have a diameter of 0,7 mm to 0,8\u00a0mm or if the follicular unit grafts contains 3-4-5 hairs needles with a diameter of 0,8\u00a0mm should be used.\u00a0The sharpness of the needles as well as being only for single-use, are the elements that have a considerable impact on the operation\u2019s success.\u00a0Another important factor is to extract hair follicles with precise accuracy so as to avoid any follicular damage.\u00a0For example; if the person who is having a hair transplant has very curly hair, by using a curved punch called u-graft during the process of extracting follicular units, the risk of follicular damage can be eliminated.\u00a0All of these elements are refinements planned by the doctor prior to the operation, which are tailored specifically to each patient\u2019s condition.<\/p>\n
In the classic FUE technique the incisions are created by utilizing steel blades.\u00a0With these slit blades, the incisions should be created with precise accuracy, considering the natural direction of hair growth.\u00a0This will allow the transplanted grafts to grow out at their natural direction.<\/p>\n
While making slits in the recipient area, it is very important to follow the direction and angel of the existing hair in that region.<\/em><\/p>\n FUE technique utilizes steel blades for creating incisions in the recipient site.\u00a0During the operation, after hundreds of incisions have been created, these steel blades should be replaced with new ones. On the other hand, such a problem will not be encountered with sapphire FUE blades, because they are smoother and sharper.\u00a0For each patient, according to hair follicle thickness, just a few blade tips will needed.\u00a0Once again, the blades should only be used on an individual patient during a single procedure.<\/p>\n The final stage, which is transplanting the hair follicles; is the process of transplanting the follicles one at a time at an angle of 40-45 degrees, within the incisions that have been created at directions that enables accurate placement.\u00a0All three phases have certain specific technicalities and the most important technicality within all stages is certainly experience.
