Hair Transplant Anesthesia Types In Turkey Istanbul

Local Anesthesia

One of the options for anesthesia during the hair transplant in Turkey is by injecting the upper layer of the skin of the head after shaving and sterilizing the injection site. The person feels some pain during the injection procedure, but the pain subsides within a short period that does not exceed 10 minutes.

After the anesthesia has taken effect completely, the person can relax and just wait until the whole process is completed without feeling the slightest pain.

Temporary Anesthesia

The second option used in anesthesia during the hair transplant in Turkey is done in detail through local anesthesia that we mentioned (the first method), but this step is preceded by injecting the anesthetic into the vein so that the person sleeps for a short period of about 15 minutes to avoid pain during the injection of the skin of the head.

Upon awakening (after 15 minutes), the anesthesia will have taken effect completely and the person will not feel anything, including the first injection of anesthesia into the skin of the head. In this case, the person must fast 8 hours before the procedure to avoid feeling uncomfortable in the stomach after waking up from the temporary anesthesia.

Shaving

The client enters the hair transplantation room, which is well and completely sterile. In the first step in the room, the hair is shaved either from the entire head or only from the donor area, according to each case.

Anesthesia

The head is sterilized very well in preparation for the application of local anesthesia, which is placed by very soft injections injected under the skin that do not cause much pain except in a small way. Temporary anesthesia can be done to avoid any pain.

Follicle Extraction Stage

hair transplant in turkey

The donor areas are determined for each case separately, and the most common areas for extracting the follicles are the area behind the head, the chest area, and the bottom of the beard. Usually, the donor area is adopted behind the head in most cases.
The follicles are extracted using a special device called a micromotor and kept in a special liquid until the hair transplantation phase begins. This stage takes about 1 hour.

Front Line Drawing

hair transplant in turkey

The front line of the hair is drawn according to the features and expressions of the face, taking into account the age and its consistency with the shape of the hair on the sides. It is also taken into account to draw it naturally so that it is not noticed that the person has performed the hair transplant in Turkey.

Open Pores

After completing the extraction and determining the front line of hair transplantation, the doctor opens the pores in the empty places of hair with very precise medical tools from 1 mm to 1.3 mm and with a well-studied direction and angle in order to be suitable for the next stage, which is transplantation. This process takes about 1 hour.

Implantation

The extracted follicles are implanted into the pores that were made one by one until the entire area identified by the front line drawing is covered. This step also takes about 2-3 hours.

Donor Area Bandaging 

hair transplant in turkey

This is the last step in hair transplant in Turkey so that the doctor bandages the donor back area of ​​the head to avoid any skin infections and complications. This bandage also helps the person lie down and sleep on the back without any problems. After this step the person can leave to start the post-procedure phase where they are removed the next day of the operation.

After the procedure

This stage begins after leaving the hospital after the completion of hair transplantation. During this stage, all instructions are adhered to, including adherence to taking the medications prescribed by the doctor, including anti-inflammatories and pain relievers. At this stage and to the extent that the instructions are adhered to, results can be expected that are closer to what the person aspires to.

Hair Transplant Before and After In Turkey Istanbul

Here are some pictures of some cases of hair transplant in Turkey that took place in our center in Istanbul Turkey Turk Aesthetic.

Hair Wash after Hair Transplant in Turkey

On the next day, after a period of 24 – 48 hours has passed from the operation and before starting to wash, a cream is placed to soften the transplanted area for hair transplantation and wait for a period ranging from 15 to 30 minutes. This cream or lotion prepares the transplanted area for washing, which also facilitates the process of getting rid of dandruff. Wash with lukewarm water only. After the washing is finished, it is dried with soft tissues only. It is not preferable to use towels and hair dryers. If you wait for the head to dry automatically in order not to damage or harm the transplanted hair, it is better for the safety of the follicles.

Note: You must continue washing in the same way that is done the first time in the center for a period of 12 days and at that time a crust may appear in the transplanted area, it can be removed by light rubbing in one direction from the back to front during the shower. It is also preferable to use products free of chemicals and replace them With natural products. Here is a video showing how to wash hair after transplantation.

Hair Transplant Techniques In Turkey Istanbul

There are several methods and techniques used in hair transplant in Turkey in particular and in the various countries that perform hair transplant operations. At Turk Aesthetic, we will mention the most important and most famous techniques used in hair transplant in Turkey:

FUT technique

It is one of the hair transplant techniques that is based on taking a slice of the scalp from the back area, including the follicles that hold the hair roots. The area behind the head and between the ears was chosen exclusively because it is characterized by an excess number of follicles that contain more than two or three hairs in each follicle. It has genetic properties that prevent it from falling or being affected by hormonal changes that occur in the body for various reasons.

Then the hair follicles are separated from each other, and then channels are opened in the area that needs hair transplantation to bring the follicles into it. But it is no longer applied today due to the percentage of waste that occurs and because it leaves a permanent scar in the form of a transverse line in the donor area.

FUE technique

FUE is the latest and most successful hair transplantation technique in this field. Because we can get a large number of follicles in one day.

It is distinguished from other techniques in the stage of extracting grafts or follicles, where each follicle is carefully and accurately extracted by means of a special device called a micromotor and then placed in a special liquid and on pieces of ice to keep it alive for as long as possible, which reduces the percentage of waste to reach less than 1 percent . People can also strengthen the transplant and the transplanted hair by periodically injecting the hair tonic plasma.

BHT technique

It is one of the innovative ways to solve the problem of poor hair density in the donor area and the inability to pick out a sufficient number of follicles to cover baldness completely. By this technique, the roots of the body hair located in the chest area or under the chin are taken advantage of to be used in places that need intensification and hair transplantation.

Hair transplant specialists advise transplanting these follicles extracted from body hair at the top of the head or the middle area of ​​the scalp and between the previously existing hair follicles in order to give the best result and a more natural hair shape. BHT technology may not be suitable for all cases of baldness or hair loss and thinning, so it is recommended to consult specialists about potential donor areas and pictures of the areas to be transplanted.

DHI technique

It differs from the FUE technique in the method of grafting the follicles only, where the extraction is carried out in the same technique using the micromotor device.

In all previous hair transplant techniques, small channels or incisions are opened in the area in which the follicles will be transplanted before starting the transplantation stage, and then the follicles are lowered into these channels by means of medical forceps dedicated to transplanting the follicles.

On the contrary, the DHI technique enables us to grow hair without the need to open channels, where the follicles are transplanted directly under the scalp through a special pen called CHOI Hair pen.

The Choi Pen is a fine needle-tipped instrument that the follicle is suspended in and implanted directly under the surface of the skin in a single motion.

This technique is characterized by the rapid healing of the transplanted area due to the absence of any cracks or bleeding in the scalp.

The cost of DHI hair transplantation is high compared to other hair transplant techniques, due to the use of different transplant pens for each patient, and they are thrown with medical waste after each operation, and it also requires a double effort and accuracy in work.

Specialists resort to this technique in cases that require high density in certain areas and not to cover large areas as in the advanced stages of baldness, as the maximum number of follicles that we can transplant with DHI technique is 2000 grafts due to the time and effort required by the process.

Perkutan technique

A smart technique for transplanting hair, beard or eyebrows in Turkey and differs from FUE in that the channels are opened in them through a thin needle with a pointed tip with a needle diameter of about 0.5 mm, where in this technique small holes are made instead of openings or incisions, as is the case in techniques other farming.

These small holes, in which the follicles are subsequently implanted, provide natural results and a high density of up to more than 50 follicles per 1 cm2. The Perkutan technique requires good experience and extreme precision as the direction of hair growth and density distribution in the transplanted area is determined by opening the micro-holes with the needle.

Sapphire technique

The Safir technique for hair transplant in Turkey shares with the famous FUE technique in all its details, but differs with it in a simple detail, which is the stage of opening the channels so that this is done through the ambassador’s stone

Hair Transplant For Women In Turkey Istanbul

Women share with men the methods and techniques of hair transplant in Turkey to replace lost hair due to hair loss, but women may embarrass themselves in the case of fully shaving hair, unlike men who may not find any problem with full shaving.

Hair transplantation for women is performed in Turkey Istanbul without the need to shave the entire hair using the No-cut FUE technique

  • Clean and sterilize the donor area.
  • Locally anesthetize the donor area using needles dedicated to numbing the scalp.
  • Extraction of follicles and grafts using a special device called FUE technique called micromotor. It is characterized by a thin extraction head with a diameter ranging from 0.6 to 0.9 mm.

  • Reshaping the frontal hair line in case it needs to be modified and identifying weak or empty areas in which the follicles will be transplanted.
  • Locally anesthetize the area to be transplanted and prepare it to start the next stage.
  • Opening small channels or pores in the area to be covered and condensed.

Hair Transplant in Turkey for Alopecia Areata

Alopecia is a skin problem that affects some areas of the head and causes random hair loss. At first, it is preferable to treat the disease by a dermatologist, and after complete recovery from alopecia, a person can perform hair transplantation in areas where the hair has not recovered naturally.

Hair Transplant in Turkey for Diabetics

In hair transplant in Turkey for diabetic patients, the blood sugar level is required to be as low as 200 for both types, whether insulin users or those who use pills only. Before the procedure, consideration should be given to the cumulative blood sugar analysis, which shows the average blood sugar level for the last 3 months.

Aftercare instructions for hair transplant in Turkey Istanbul

Here are some points to be taken into consideration after hair transplant in Turkey:

  • Sleep on the back for a week.
  • No exposure to the sun for a week.
  • The razor should not be used for 6 months.
  • Avoid environments such as saunas and solariums for one month.
  • Heavy sports should be avoided for 2 months and light sports for 1 month.
  • Pay attention to the areas of follicle transplantation, taking care not to injure anything.
  • Avoid scratching the scalp for a month.
  • After the twelfth day, the crusts should be thoroughly cleaned without harming the area.
  • After the surgery, the medications prescribed by the doctor should be taken regularly and on time.
  • Hair should be washed for 12 days daily as shown in the hair washing video

Smoking after transplant

Smoking negatively affects the hair and the scalp, and this is for people who do not suffer from any diseases or health problems. How if they have undergone a surgical procedure, here we must mention that the hair follicles are still wet and have not settled and receive the necessary blood flow that provides them with nutrition, after the Hair transplant in Turkey.

We need a period of recuperation and rest and stay away from polluted air and smoking in order to ensure that the hair grows healthy and the follicles are fixed in their new place and ensure that the hair follicles that have been transplanted are not damaged or destroyed.

Sports After Hair Transplant in Turkey

Exercising immediately after hair transplant in Turkey is one of the most common mistakes that the patient makes. Also, cutting nutrition off the hair follicles by following a harsh slimming program is one of the most important other mistakes because this causes damage and damage to the newly transferred follicles and they need a good nutrition regimen for a period of time.

It is less than three months, so you must avoid diets and extreme sports to get good results because the immune system, after exercising or making muscular effort, rejects the transplanted hair follicles and treats it as a foreign body, and here we have contributed to killing the hair follicles and thwarting the entire process.

Pain During and After Hair Transplant

The pain associated with hair transplantation is simple and possible, and it all boils down to the duration of local anesthesia only, as there is a two-minute period for local anesthesia for the donor area and two minutes for local anesthesia for the transplanted area.

With regard to pain after hair transplantation, it starts after the anesthesia wears off on the first night of hair transplantation. The doctor prescribes pain-relieving pills in addition to some anti-inflammatories to avoid any complications or pain, which is a common and natural thing that does not require concern.
