The process causing androgenetic alopecia is similar in male and female pattern hair loss;
1- Progressive shrinkage of terminal (thick and dark) hair follicles (hair miniaturization),
2- terminal to vellus transformation (conversion of thick and dark terminal hairs to very thin and white hairs called vellus)
3- Shortening the hair growth cycle.
4- The last stage is the shedding stage.
5- Female pattern hair loss is quite different from male pattern hair loss. The loss of all hair in women is a rare condition. Usually, hair loss does not start from the hairline. It begins in a diffuse manner, mostly generalized in the middle of the head. Hair loss and hair thinning are mostly together.
At FKS Clinic, we also attach importance to female pattern hair loss. Dr Kuddusi ONAY, one of the doctors of our clinic, on female pattern hair loss:
“The most sensitive majority of my patients with Hair Loss are women. In particular, we had the chance to further advance the Unshaven Hair Transplantation for them. With the DHI Method, we enable them to regain their old, dense and healthy hair. ”
Before the hair transplantation, the suitability of the patient for the operation should be evaluated. For this, it must pass an inspection. For example, Even if the hair transplant operation is successful, individuals with some health problems may not get very productive results. There are some reasons for a person to have a hair transplant. There should be sufficient healthy hair in the donor areas where the grafts will be taken. A person’s expectations from hair transplantation should be realistic. Otherwise, he may not be a suitable candidate for the procedure.
The duration of hair transplantation varies according to the number of grafts to be transplanted in operation. It usually varies between 6-8 hours. You can also listen to music or watch movies during hair transplantation. Most of the patients find the operation time quite reasonable.
About 2 to 4 weeks after hair transplantation, temporary hair loss is experienced. Temporary hair loss after FUE hair transplantation is a natural cycle of the healing process. Hair follicles enter the dormant period before starting the growth cycle and then fall out. In this process, the hair will fall out first. After a while, after the shock shedding process has passed, the transplanted hair will start to grow back.
Hair growth after a transplant is gradual. Initial growth can typically be observed around 3-4 months post-procedure, with full results visible within 9-12 months as your transplanted hair continues to grow.
Our procedures are performed under local anesthesia, which minimizes discomfort. Most patients report a painless experience during the procedure, with manageable discomfort during the initial healing phase.
The number of grafts needed varies depending on the extent of hair loss and desired density. During your consultation at FKS Clinic, our specialists will provide a clear assessment and an estimate of the required grafts.
Recovery after a hair transplant is generally quick, and most patients can resume daily activities within a week. Any minor redness or swelling typically subsides within a few days.
