Hair Transplantation Stages.
The preparation phase begins after you meet with the surgeon who will do the procedure.
- In the preparation phase, all the medical tests are done, the history of diseases is examined, and the drugs used by the patient are taken into consideration.
- The donor area and the places where the planting will be done are determined by drawing marker lines. The patient is asked to shave before the operation starts.
- Local anesthesia is then administered. General anesthesia is not needed.
- The hair taken from the donor area to be transplanted is called a graft. Grafts are usually obtained from the back and sides of your hair. If these parts are not dense enough, they can also be taken from the chest and beard.
- Grafts are implanted one by one with the help of fine-tipped needles by opening channels in the target areas.
- After the operation ends, the head is wrapped with a special bandage. The patient can be discharged after 2-3 hours.

- The experience and knowledge of the surgeon who will perform the procedure are some of the most important aspects to be considered when choosing a clinic.
- Successful and reliable hair transplant doctors communicate 1-on-1 with the patient.
- They also address their concerns while answering their questions about the treatment.
- The chosen clinic must organize and provide accurate planning for the patient. During planning, information such as how many grafts will be taken and the hairline style should be given to the patient accurately.
- The quality and personalization of the medical equipment to be used during the procedure are very important.
- Obtaining information about the drug’s history of patients in the past and the diseases he/she had in the past are also among the things to be considered.
- When examining the past procedures of the hair transplant clinic, you should ensure that Before/After photos have not been tampered with!
- It is better if you visit the clinic by yourself before the procedure.
