1st stage: The density of the donor area, the area to be implanted and the number of follicles to be picked out is determined. The front line is drawn.

2nd stage:  The patient undergoes the necessary tests and checkups, which are blood tests and some dermatology examinations.

3rd stage:  In this stage, the entire hair is shaved, in case the hair transplantation should be conducted with (FUE) technique. In case of DHI- or Robot technique, only the donor area needs to be shaved, to facilitate the process of picking the follicles out. The patient will be under local anesthesia.

4th stage:  In this stage, the doctor picks out the follicles from the donor area via the Micro Motor and they are placed in saline called Hypothermosol, to keep the follicles alive, during this procedure.

5th stage:  This is the stage of hair transplantation. If (FUE) technique is used, the channels are opened. Then the extracted follicles will transplanted into those channels by using medical forceps. If (DHI) technique is used, the follicles are placed in Choi pens so that with one click the channels will opened to implant the follicles in the same time.

Healthy hair is an important factor in good appearance and essential for self-confidence because it affects also our social life. Many factors influence the growth and strength of hair and some of them may also contribute to baldness. Latest statistics suggest that 1 in 3 person will experience hair loss at some point in their lifes. Hair transplantation is a microsurgical procedure performed under operating room conditions. So far it’s considered the most effective and permanent solution to baldness. With it’s advanced medical facilities and highly trained professionals in medical fields, Turkey is a hotspot for people seeking a solution against such a problem.

The Follicular Unit Extraction is the process of removing hair grafts from the donor area with a special instrument to implanting them afterwards in the bald regions. The FUE technique, which has been applied since 1990 is the most advanced method. The benefits of this technique such as the easy and fast application of hair culture have made it more popular than the older FUT technique. With this technique the grafts are taken with a special device from the donor area and implanted in channels around 0.7/0.8mm using special inserts, these grafts may contain cells of 2 or 3 packs. The number of transplant recipients can be 12,000 removed of 5,000 unit and the root can be taken at the same time without cutting or a skin band.

• FUE Technique Advantages
• Easier & faster,
• Roots recover within 24 until 48 hours.
• No incision process and no sewing required.
• No loss of texture and feel.
• It can also be used for beard, mustache and eyebrow transplantation in addition to hair transplant grafts taken from the neck.
• Less pain after operation, due to the minimal incision.

Manual Punch FUE is one of the hair transplant methods, of the FUE techniques, which will managed manually with the pen-shaped tool, ranging in size between 0.75 mm and 1.35 mm. FUE will be performed with manual punch technique. 3000 grafts can be extracted in one hair transplant session. These extracted grafts are transferred manually to the bald area of the scalp by an experienced doctor.The advantages of manual punch FUE as follows:

• Remain less scar owing to the pen-shaped tool.
• Allows navigating easily around the follicular unit.
• Harvest rates of grafts can be faster.
• Grafts can be harvested without changing their natural structure.
• This technique is also considered the safest, most accurate method because of it’s low trans section rate.

Sapphire FUE is similar to the original FUE technique, except  the blade that is used in the procedure. In this method, a sapphire blade will be used to open channels on the scalp during the transplantation instead of razor or steel. At the first stage of hair transplantation follicles are extracted and then transplanted into the channels that have been opened with the sapphire blades. Opening the channels is the most important part of the hair transplant procedure because it influences the density, angle and direction of hair growth. Owing to the thin opening of sapphire blades, the grafts can be replaced without contact with the outside.

The other advantages of sapphire blades are:

• Enables denser graft implantation.
• Reduced risk of complications.
• More natural appearance.
• Shorter recovery period.

The most popular method nowadays. This direct Hair Implantation, briefly known as the DHI technique. Individually collected grafts are placed in the planting areas with a special transplant tool, the CHOI PEN, which varies between 0.6mm & 1mm thick. For other methods, the process is performed at two separated steps, unlike in DHI with both extracting and implanting at the same time. Hair must be cut at a certain length and the line should be drown. The grafts are carefully collected with no damage, after determining the optimal angle and directions for transplantation found slits are created in the area to implant in. No holes or cuts are required for this method unlike the previous ones, this process lasts longer comparing to them making it necessary for the patient and doctor, to be more cautious. Also the price is higher due to using multiple tools. Shaving the hair completely, is not required.

Faster recovery.

Healthier hair because grafts are taken and implanted directly.

Dense & lush hair due to the possibility of more root transplants.

No scars remain.

Angle of grafts determined more easily therefore they are more consistent.
