UNSHAVEN HAIR TRANSPLANTATION

How is a hair transplant performed?

Unshaven hair transplantation is a technique that allows for hair transplantation without shaving the front, side, and top parts of the hair. During the procedure, the donor area is shaved alone, and the necessary follicles are harvested, while the rest of the hair is left untouched. This method is particularly popular among individuals with long hair. Since the shaved area is concealed by the long hair on top, it is not noticeable.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR UNSHAVEN HAIR TRANSPLANTATION?

Unshaven hair transplantation can be performed using different methods such as DHI hair transplantation and CHOI PEN, which can be chosen based on the needs of the individual and the doctor's recommendations. One method involves opening a small window in the donor area to harvest follicles, which is preferred by women. In this case, unshaven hair transplantation can still be performed, but it may not be entirely clear which follicles were extracted from the donor area. There is also a completely unshaven hair transplantation method, but it may depend on the number of roots required. This technique is typically used to increase density in small, narrow, and limited areas, with an average of one thousand to one thousand five hundred roots being transplanted using the DHI method and CHOI PEN. In general, people who may be eligible for unshaven hair transplantation include:

  • Individuals with a receding hairline
  • Women with hair loss
  • People with patchy hair loss in specific areas

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF UNSHAVEN HAIR TRANSPLANTATION?

Unshaven hair transplantation offers several benefits, including:

  • Maintaining the appearance of hair before and after the procedure
  • Eliminating the need for a post-transplant hair growth phase
  • Concealing the fact that a hair transplant has been performed

FREQUENTLY_ASKED_QUESTIONS

Where are the hair grafts extracted from? +

The hair grafts are extracted from the backside of the head, which we determine as between two ears and above the neck. The reason for choosing this specific area as a donor (extraction zone) is that the hair grafts in this region are genetically encoded against inherent hair fall. If the extraction process from this region is performed with better quality artistry, hair fall will never occur for a lifetime. Therefore, we take the hair grafts from the backside of the head, which we call the donor area.

The hair roots are homogeneously extracted one by one with the help of the latest technology system called the FUE method. After the process is over, the hair will never grow the place taken from since it is taken with its root, but it will not be visible since it is done with cater-corner homogeneously

When will the implanted grafts grow or come out? +

After the hair transplant has been done, our medical consultant assistant will, without stint, follow the whole process with you until you achieve the best result. We will describe to you the growth process of all the hair grafts, respectively.

1-On the 10th day, the process of cleaning scabs will be done.

2-After one month, implanted hair begins to shed moderately.

3-The implanted hair enters the shock hair loss during the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th month, called the resting phase. During this process, you will face a view as if no hair transplant has been done.

4-At the end of the 4th month, the implanted roots will gradually start to grow progressively, and each month will grow faster and more hair than the previous month.

5-In the 7th month, almost 70% of the transplanted hair ultimately grows.

6-All transplanted hairs may take 12 months for the front zone and 14 months for the crown region to grow


The regrowth period of the transplanted hair may vary from person to person. It is a fact that hair roots come out earlier or later than expected, depending on a person's habits such as smoking, alcohol, drugs, and eating habits.

If I come with my family, do I have to pay extra? +

We, as the Long Hair Center family, care about your having a pleasant time in Turkey. Therefore, your 1 family member or friend can come with you, and there is no extra charge like hotel and airport transfer.

How many grafts can be implanted? +

Before the hair transplantation, the estimated number of hair grafts is given after the evaluation of pictures by doctor. We do not want to raise expectations too much, as the pictures can often mislead hair transplant doctors. Therefore, we do not want to give you the wrong information by saying a little less than the number of grafts we can implant. However, we work with the maximum number of hair grafts in every operation. While performing this extraction process, it is done completed by paying attention to the homogenization without harming the donor area. The number of grafts is essentially determined by the size of the person's planting area and the quality of the donor area. Of course, it is imperative how many grafts will be implanted, but implantation in good health is at least as necessary as the number of grafts. The grafts are found in groups in the donor area; they will come out simultaneously if you extract and implant them with their group. But if you cut these grouped grafts, for example, if you extract a graft with three hairs, reducing the number of hair strands to 2 or 1 will not be a successful hair transplant. No matter how high the number of grafts is, it is impossible to achieve a successful planting if they are not taken in good quality.

How many hours does the operation take? +

The hair transplant operation does not have a fixed duration of time. Depending on the grafts need of a person, this time period can be extended or shortened. The higher the number of roots, the longer the operations will take, and the longer the operation time. A healthy hair transplant should take a minimum of 6 hours and a maximum of 10 hours. This is the ideal time duration for both; patient's well-being and the graft's survival period.

Can i have a hair transplant twice? +

People who are not satisfied with their first operation results, think that it is sparse, or whose donor area is too weak to achieve that number of hair grafts (to cover all the entire bald zone in one session) can have two operation sessions. 2nd session of hair transplantation is wholly related to the quality and abundance of the hair in the person's donor area. There is no problem if the number of hair grafts is sufficient to conduct the operation of a person who will have the second operation. However, if there is too much damage in the first session and the donor area is harmed enough to extract grafts again, performing the second session operation is not recommended. It will cause more damage to the donor area. You can have more transparent information about this situation when you show your pictures or direct examination to your hair transplant doctor.


Those who cannot have a hair transplant for the second time?

1.People whose donor area is damaged too much during the first session.

2.People who do not have enough hair in their donor area to cover enough broad recipient area.
