HELP! What is the solution to my problem?
Also called hair restoration, hair transplantation, or hair implants, hair transplantation is a cosmetic procedure that involves taking hair from a donor area, most commonly the back or sides of your scalp, and moving it to the recipient area where you experienced hair loss.
Thus, hair transplantation is the most popular baldness treatment in the world due to its simplicity and effectiveness.
Well, let’s take a look at the techniques available!
FUE = In hair transplantation using the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method, hair islands (follicular units; FU) are removed one by one without a linear incision.
It is the removal of islands of hair (follicular unit; FU) with circular incisions from the scalp using 1mm and smaller diameter instruments. The only difference between this method known as Fue Motor and the old method is that the doctor does not have to manually remove the follicular unit.
The basic logic is actually the same and with the new method, the doctor and the patient save a lot more time. The device at the end of the core biopsy pen is connected to a motor and the speed of the motor can be adjusted as desired. The thickness of the tips is changed and tips with the desired lumen diameter are applied according to the donor site. The only advantage of the fue engine is of course not only that you gain time. In addition, thanks to the motor, the tissue depth can be standardized as desired, eliminating the need to continuously control the tissue depth. Another advantage is that with the Fue Engine method, grafts can be taken at more frequent intervals and when the same amount of field scans are compared, more grafts can be removed from the field taken with the engine. Furthermore, an advantage of the motor is that it is less likely to break open grafts with multiple roots, i.e. 2-3 or even 4 roots. In other words, the success of the follicular unit in maintaining its integrity is higher.
For these reasons, it can be said that hair transplantation has become a more comfortable operation thanks to Fue Motors. Although the way the roots are taken is different, the opening of the canals and the stages of transplantation are the same as other methods.
Although now it is healthier and more comfortable with the FUE method, one must know that it is an operation that requires careful attention and very detailed work and experience. One should transplant at the natural growth angle and direction of the hair, and also transplant the removed hair follicles quickly without leaving them waiting outside for a long time. Subsequently, one of the most important factors in the health and success of this surgery is advising the patient on the process before and after the transplant. Since hair transplantation is a detailed and precise application that requires balanced medical equipment, you should choose well the center where the procedure will be performed.
Patients should abstain from smoking and alcohol consumption. These two have been found to reduce the recovery time and damage the grafts. If you are taking any blood thinners like aspirin etc., then consult your doctor and get approval to stop them for a while. Usage of blood thinners during the surgery period will increase the risk of bleeding. On the day of the surgery, be sure not to apply any hair products even if you use them regularly. Instead, wash and dry your hair and keep up a positive, cheerful attitude.
Due to Sapphire blade tips, 4000 grafts can be applied In a single session. In most cases, the entire process is completed in a single session of 6 to 8 hours. The duration of the procedure depends upon factors such as the number of grafts to be used and the width of the hair transplantation area.
During the recovery phase, the patients should avoid smoking and alcohol consumption.
While sleeping, care should be taken so that the sensitive transplanted area does not contact the pillow.
Make sure that you are thorough with the regular follow up.
Avoid activities that cause sweating. So it’s best to stay away from heavy exercise, swimming, and strain.
Eye Brow Transplantation ;
In humans, sometimes due to diseases, accidents, and sometimes genetic deformities can be seen in the eyebrows. These disturbances have a negative effect on visual aesthetics.
Eyebrow transplantation is performed using the FUE technique, which eliminates this problem. The person to be transplanted is anesthetized locally, then micro-channels are opened with the side slit and implanted in these channels. Needles of 0.6 mm and 0.7 mm are used. When performing an eyebrow transplant, it is important that the roots, like the hairs on the eyebrows, are single and the canals are opened in the same direction.
