Hair Transfer/Implant

sacekimiLatest developments in hair implant “FUE technique” Many people complain about their lessening hair and look for a variety of solutions. If the treatment starts at the beginning of hair loss, the hair mesotherapy and medicines may stop the baldness. We for years apply the hair implant under the most natural FUT technique for the advanced hair loss problems.

FUE (Follicular unit extraction) technique has been started to be applied at the recent times. It has many advantages for the patients when compared to the classical hair implant. The FUE method takes the hair with the help of special needles (without any cutting and stitching) and implants them to the bald areas.

The reasons of hair loss: Our hair goes definitely in every 3-4 years but new ones come instead. It is the reasons for the loss of 60-80 hair daily. This natural process is also valid for the newly implant hair too.

Genes: Androgenic hair loss depends on a certain genetic code to be present in the chromosomes. However, bearing that responsible gene is not enough for the hair loss. Activation of this gene depends on its recognition; which turn relates to the hormones, age, stress etc. factors.

Hormones: Two types of androgen play role in hair loss: Testosterone and Dihydrostestostherone (DHT). These two hormones interact with the receptors in the hair root and cause changes in the development metabolism of the hair.

Aging: Even the present of both aforementioned factors is not enough for the start of androgenic hair loss.

Aging: The aging causes a certain rate of hair thinning and miniaturization.

Methods against the hair loss hair implant: FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) HairMesotherapy Medicine Treatment (FDA approved)Finasteride (only for men) Minoxidil (for men and women) Fue TechniqueFollicular individual units are extracted selectively from the back and sides of the skin covering head and transferred to the desired zones on the head.

In the follicular extraction, each follicular hair group shall be extracted without any additional tissue attached and without harming the surrounding skin; so for this perfect extraction we use a special micro-surgery tool (with diameter between 0.75-1.0 mm).

No visible scar: The most possible intense hair frequency: 50-90 follicular unit Per cm2 provide natural and original hair lines.

Operation: The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Each session lasts 4-6 hours. In the first place, the roots are taken without any incision. Afterwards, the living hair roots are implanted to the bald areas. 500-1000 living room is implanted in a day. The hair implant operation may last 1-3 days (session) depending on the need of the patient. The patients have a relaxed and painless session in a comfort operation room.

Post Operation: The patient may turn to his/her daily life after the end of all sessions. The patient shall return after 48 hours for the first wash and required care. The implant hair gets long for 1 month. 3-4 months after the first month, the implant hair roots stay alive however the produced hair starts the stage of loss. Some of the implant roots continue to produce hair and some stay alive however not produce any hair. After this transition stage, all the implant roots start to get longer as living tissues. Like in all hair implant methods, FUE technique provides its final image comes to surface after 5-7 months.

FUE technique makes body hair implant possible: Our operation permits taking follicular units from many parts of the body. These include chest, abdomen, and dorsal side etc. hair. The combination of this technique with standard graft makes the donor area of the head skin wider. Using the hair from other parts of the body makes also significant contribution to the total amount of the donor roots.

FUE shall be preferred in the following conditions:

1. For the persons who need to shave his/her hair or wish to shave all the hair from time to time.

2. 1000-1200 units of FUE is regarded as the limit by our clinic for the situations in which a small amount of hair root shall be enough for the desired area.

3. When the former scars require correction, such repair may be performed with FUE without making new scars.

4. FUE shall be preferred for the very young patients with higher skin flexibility since they tend to demonstrate wide scars biologically.

5. In case no sufficient donor source is left, and particularly if the patient has undergone operation with strip method for a couple of times, the FUE method makes it possible to have another 1000 units without leaving any scar.

6. When no sufficient donor source is present. Follicular Unit Extraction significantly widens the donor source area. Particularly for the implant operations, the body parts such as chest and dorsal side may be used.

FUT shall be preferred in the following conditions:

1. When the patient never thinks to have his/her hair cut as shorter than zero or 0,5 cm.

2. When the spared the time for the operation procedure is limited.

FUE method provides 600-700 follicular units to be implanted during 4 hours of session. FUT my implant 2,500-3,500 follicular units in the same time space used for strip extraction. This also explains why the Follicular Unit Extraction is more expensive.

3. If a tiny scar between the hair is not important.

Treatment Of Hair Loss: One of the most common problems during the season changes is hair loss. Particularly after the summer, the hair gets worn and thinner due to sun effects and is lost.

The hair loss is one of the most common aesthetic problems of men and women. The hair is very important for our image; they are also strategic since having functions as protecting the hairy skin from the external factors and balancing the body temperature. Normally hair is lost in a certain rate for renewal and new hair comes instead. However if the losing process is faster than renewal process, then we may talk about hair loss.

Hair loss may depend on many factors. Shortage of blood (anemia), shortage of iron, shortage of zinc, hormonal irregularities (the hormones stimulated via kidney glands, testosterone, trio hormones), medication, long periods of illnesses, stress, psychological factors etc.

Treatment: The first stage is the examination of the reason for hair loss. Blood analysis, hormone levels, medication, stress factor etc. are examined to exist or not. According to the results, medication or hair mesotherapy will be recommended.

The medication will be made orally and the hair root will be freshened and fed with such oral medicines.

An option of finasteride, particularly for men. It prevents the turning of testosterone to DHT and accordingly stops the hair loss significantly. Hair becomes to be thicker. However it has reserves due to its systemic effects.

Naturally the solutions being applied to the hair areas have effects, however here we have another problem which is very small permanent effect under the skin. Minoxidil and similar medicines widen the grouped capillaries. They require to be used continuously.

Living hair with hair mesotherapy: It is a method applicable for hair loss, weakening hair, dull hair. It is applied to protect the existing hair roots after the hair implant.

In hair mesotherapy, the vitamin that feed the roots and the medicines that increase the blood circulation are injected to the roots directly with capillary very thin needles (Biotin, bepanthen, B12, zinc , selenium, iron other many important medicines).

The only and effective development of the recent years is the release of the injectable forms of minoxidil and finasterid. By this way, the problems of skin permeability (solutions) and systemic side effects (tablet medicines) have been overcome. The application lasts 5-10 minutes to the hair root with tiny injections. Thus, the vitamin and medicines show full effects with no losses. Daily life starts just after the application.

The loss of hair is totally stopped with 10 sessions as once in a week in the beginning and once in two weeks afterwards. With the arrival of the new hair, vitality and volume increase, brightness, softness for the hair is obtained. The hair mesotherapy provides new and living hair. We recommend the protection of the results after the treatment via a session in each subsequent month.

Laser treatment: It is scientifically proved that low doses of laser application accelerate the hair growth. This device (FDA approved) gives low doses of laser to the hair. The veins expand and more oxygen is carried to the roots.

10 minutes of laser treatment, as an addition to the weekly hair mesotherapy, shall be enough. The application has no side effects.

Thanks to the “Photo-Bio-Stimulation” principle, the blood circulation of the tissues increase and the vitamins and nutrients are more easily carried to the requiring areas without any damage to the surrounding tissues. It also increases the effectiveness of the mesotherapy. As a result of the increase of the blood circulation, the toxins, harmful DHT and other waste side products are moved away from the hair cells.

Hair implant: The activeness of the totally passive roots may not be regenerated despite many techniques. Thus, the hair implant is the most successful method. We for years apply the hair transfer under the most natural FUT technique. It is taking the hair roots from the back of the hairy skin’s via an incision and transferring the separated hair roots to the desired area.

FUE (Follicular unit extraction) technique has been started to be applied at the recent times. It has many advantages when compared to the classical hair transfer; the FUE method takes the hair with the help of special needles (without any cutting and stitching) and implants them to the bald areas.

The implant hair grows for a month. 3-4 months after the first month, the implant hair roots stay alive however the produced hair starts the stage of breaking. Some of the implant roots continue to produce hair and some stay alive however not produce any hair. After this transition period, the implant hair starts to grow within five-seven months.

Let all the fresh and healthy hair be with you through happy days.
