What is FUE Hair Transplantation?
The FUE hair transplantation technique allows surgeons to master the transplant process and create a completely natural hair prosthesis. FUE hair transplantation technique also provides the right orientation to each hair follicle and makes it impossible to distinguish the transplanted hair from the natural hair cycle.
Hair loss is very bad experience for everybody, but it is even worse to replace it with unnatural looking hair transplantation. The goal is to restore hair to look completely natural. With follicular unit extraction or FUE technique, it is possible to achieve this by removing each hair follicle one by one. In FUE hair transplantation technique, each hair strand is matched with other strands to give a completely natural look.
How is FUE hair transplantation technique applied?
Except for the long FUE hair transplantation technique, other FUE techniques require shaving. This is accomplished with hygienically sterile solutions in our clinic. Then local anesthesia is applied. Anesthesia is administered with fine-tipped needles, so you won’t feel pain during hair extraction. Needle-free anesthesia techniques are also available upon request.
The roots are picked up by Micro Motor one by one. The goal is to collect approximately 3,500 – 4,000 grafts and 7,000 – 8,000 strands individually. Since multiple grafts are targeted, this process takes about 7 to 8 hours. Collected follicles are kept in a special solutions. Following this step, suitable hair channels and hair holes are prepared. This stage determines the direction, density and naturalness of the follicles.
The transplanted hair will look natural as all the procedures in our center are performed taking into account the direction of the follicle. Even your hairdresser won’t be able to tell the difference. Making fine and dense hair holes is a difficult process; it requires expertise and experience. With these fine and dense hair holes, your transplant will be dense and look natural. When your hair grows, the transplant will look exactly like your own hair.
After cleaning your hair with special solutions, information about the post transplantation is given. Then, you can go home with your newly transplanted hair.
Your hair will start to grow after 4 months and continue to grow up to 1 year and become denser and fuller.
What are the advantages of FUE hair transplantation?
Hair grows at different angles in various parts of the scalp. Our mission is to imitate nature. This requires proper placement, correct angle, direction and orientation of the transplanted hair to achieve a natural and undetectable look.
Maintaining the patient’s natural hair structure and transferring it to sparse areas is the distinguishing feature of a successful hair transplantation. To ensure a natural flow, symmetry and appearance of transplanted hair, the same specific symmetry and harmony must be seen in adjacent hair follicles.

Is FUE hair transplant permanent?
Yes, a FUE hair transplant is regarded as a long-term remedy for hair loss. When transferred to bald or thinning regions, the transplanted hair follicles maintain their resistance to hair loss since they were removed from locations that are resistant to it, usually the rear of the scalp. These follicles continue to produce hair on their own for the remainder of your life after being transplanted. It’s crucial to remember that even if the hair transplant is permanent, untreated regions may still experience more hair loss due to normal aging. Maintaining overall outcomes may need proper maintenance and potential follow-up therapies.
How safe is a FUE hair transplant?
When carried out by a skilled surgeon, FUE hair transplantation is often regarded as a fairly safe technique. Because there aren’t any significant incisions or sutures required, the procedure is minimally invasive, which lowers the possibility of problems. Most adverse effects, such as slight soreness, redness, or swelling, are transient and go away in a few days. Rarely, there could be scarring or infection, although these risks are low if appropriate post-operative care is taken. The general health of the patient and the quality of the clinic both affect how safe the treatment is. Always seek advice from a trained expert to guarantee the finest results.
