1- HOW MANY HAIRS ARE IN 1 GRAFT ?

A graft is a unit of measurement used in hair transplant operations. It is usually used to describe the amount of hair during hair transplantation. The number of hairs in a graft can differ from person to person, because each person has a different hair density. On average, a graft can contain about 1 to 5 hairs. This can vary depending on the person's hair density, hair color and hair texture.

2- HOW MANY GRAFTS ARE REQUIRED FOR HAIR TRANSPLANT SURGERY ?

The number of grafts required for hair transplantation varies depending on the degree of hair loss, hair density and the size of the area to be transplanted. Generally, between 1000 and 5000 grafts may be required depending on the targeted hair density and desired results. However, in some cases, this amount may increase or decrease even more. It is best to consult with a hair transplant expert to determine exactly how many grafts are required for a hair transplant. The expert will evaluate the individual's specific situation and determine the appropriate number of grafts.

3- WHAT IS THE MEANING OF “GRAFT” IN HAIR TRANSPLANTATION ?

In hair transplantation, "graft" is a term used in hair transplantation operations. A graft is a small part of the scalp and contains one or a few strands of hair. During hair transplantation, grafts, usually taken from areas with high hair density, are transplanted into balding or sparse areas. The area from which the grafts are taken is usually called the donor area and is an area with healthy hair that does not experience hair loss, usually taken from the nape or sides.

During the hair transplant procedure, the grafts are carefully implanted into the recipient areas and distributed at the appropriate angles and density to simulate natural hair growth. The correct implantation and distribution of the grafts plays an important role in the successful results of hair transplantation.

The number and type of grafts varies depending on the degree of hair loss, hair type and the goals set for hair transplantation. Different techniques and graft types can be used in hair transplantation, so a consultation with a hair transplant specialist is important to create a hair transplant plan that best suits the individual's needs.

4- HOW MANY GRAFTS CAN BE TRANSPLANTED IN ONE DAY ?

The number of hair grafts to be transplanted in one day depends on several factors, including the degree of hair loss of the patient, the technique to be used for the hair transplant procedure, the condition of the donor area and the experience of the team. Generally, on average, between 1000 and 5000 grafts can be transplanted in one day. However, some experts can perform larger sessions, while others may prefer smaller sessions. Therefore, it is difficult to give an exact figure on how many grafts can be transplanted in a single session. The number and duration of transplant sessions may vary depending on the individual patient's condition and the hair transplant expert's preferences.

5- IS SCARLESS HAIR TRANSPLANTATION POSSIBLE ?

Yes, scarless hair transplantation is possible. This is achieved with modern techniques, especially FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) or DHI (Direct Hair Implantation). In FUE and DHI, hair follicles are extracted with microsurgical tools and transplanted with minimal scarring. This minimizes the appearance of scars after hair transplantation, but does not guarantee complete scarlessness.

6-CAN HAIR TRANSPLANTATION BE DONE WITHOUT ANYONE'S KNOWLEDGE?

Hair transplantation can be done without informing anyone, but it is important to consider the ethical and practical aspects of this decision. The procedure itself can be carried out discreetly, but as the transplanted hair grows, the results will become noticeable.

However, some people may not want to disclose to others that they have had a hair transplant. This decision is personal and depends on cultural norms, individual preferences and why they are having the procedure. Some people prefer to keep it a secret due to negative effects after the procedure or privacy concerns, while others may prefer to share their experience openly.It is important for people considering a hair transplant to discuss their expectations, concerns and wishes for privacy with their healthcare professional. Also, choosing a reputable and experienced surgeon can help ensure both satisfactory results and confidentiality during the procedure.

7-IS IT BETTER TO BE 30 OR 40 YEARS OLD FOR HAIR TRANSPLANTATION?

The appropriate age for hair transplantation depends on personal factors and there is no general rule. However, the ideal age range for hair transplantation is usually between 20 and 50 years of age. In this age range, hair loss usually stabilizes and the amount of donor hair may be sufficient.People in 20’s may have identified the effects of hair loss and may be a suitable candidate for hair transplantation. Also, starting hair transplantation at an early age can halt the progression of hair loss and result in less need for transplantation in the future.

In conclusion, the appropriate age for hair transplantation depends on the individual's degree of hair loss, general health and hair transplantation goals. It is important to consult with a hair transplant expert to get the best results and determine the appropriate treatment plan.

8-WHAT ARE THE NON-SURGICAL HAIR TRANSPLANTATION METHODS?

Non-surgical hair transplantation methods are techniques that do not require surgical intervention and are less invasive. These methods usually aim to reduce hair loss or improve its appearance. Here are some non-surgical hair transplantation methods:

·PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Therapy: PRP treatment involves injecting platelet-rich plasma from one's own blood into the scalp. This can help revitalize hair follicles and stimulate hair growth.

·Laser Treatment: Involves the use of low-level laser light that can help reduce or stop hair loss. Laser therapy can help revitalize hair follicles by stimulating the scalp.

·Hair Fillers: Hair fillers aim to improve the appearance of hair by injecting filler material into areas of hair loss. These fillers usually consist of substances such as hyaluronic acid or polycaprolactone.

·Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP): SMP involves injecting specialized pigments into the scalp to improve the appearance of the scalp. While it does not increase hair density, SMP can create the illusion of fuller and denser-looking scalp.

These methods offer non-surgical options for dealing with hair loss. However, the effectiveness of each can vary from person to person and it is important to seek expert advice. Surgical hair transplantation can often be a more effective solution, especially for people with advanced hair loss.
