Hair Transplant in Izmir, Turkey

Could a hair transplant be suitable for me?

Hair transplantation may be an option for selected people with pattern hair loss and some stable areas of scarring. Suitability depends on the cause and stability of hair loss, donor-hair quality, scalp health, medical history and realistic expectations. A physician's examination is needed; some causes of hair loss require medical treatment instead of surgery.

Your assessment considers the area you want to treat, the density and thickness of donor hair, your medical history and your goals.

How are FUE and FUT different?

FUE removes individual follicular units from a donor area for transplantation. It avoids the linear donor scar associated with FUT, but small scars and other surgical risks remain. The appropriate technique depends on the patient's donor area, goals and clinical assessment.

FUT removes a strip of hair-bearing scalp, which is divided into grafts for transplantation. It leaves a linear donor scar. Discuss the reasons for the proposed technique during your assessment.

What can a hair transplant achieve?

Hair transplantation redistributes existing follicles to improve coverage. Results can be long lasting, but density, appearance and graft survival vary, and existing hair may continue to thin. Treatment planning includes donor capacity, future hair loss and possible ongoing treatment.

What should I expect during recovery?

FUE hair transplantation is a surgical procedure usually performed under local anaesthesia. Patients generally return home the same day, but the scalp and transplanted grafts need protection during recovery. Your clinical team will provide individual instructions for washing, medication, work, exercise and follow-up. Recovery time varies with the procedure and your circumstances. Read the first 30 days recovery guide.

When will I see the result?

Transplanted hair commonly sheds in the weeks after surgery before new growth becomes visible. Improvement develops over several months, and final appearance can take a year or longer. Timing varies between patients and treated areas. Your clinical team will assess progress at follow-up visits and advise you about unexpected or persistent shedding. Read the month-by-month growth guide.

What risks and limitations should I discuss?

Possible complications include bleeding, infection, a reaction to the anaesthetic, noticeable scars and poor graft growth. Ask how these would be managed. Contact your treating clinic promptly for severe pain or unexpected symptoms.

How should I plan follow-up?

Before treatment, ask when follow-up assessments will take place, who to contact with concerns and how progress will be assessed if you live abroad. Your individual care instructions should guide your recovery.

How can I estimate graft numbers and cost?

Use the guided estimator for an initial graft and price estimate. It does not establish suitability or replace a consultation. Your treatment plan and quotation are confirmed after assessment. Start your graft and price estimate.
