Hair Transplant
Women

Hair transplantation is also suitable for women. The techniques are the same for women as well. The difference is the hair loss : While men have a hair loss, women’s hair weaken and for several reasons, hormonal disorders and pregnancy are the most relevant. Before going for a hair transplant, we need to find the real reason for the hair loss and then we act accordingly.
An online consultation is being done with the patient, We advise patients to get some blood tests. hemogram, hormones and vitamin deficiency tests, then the results are evaluated by our team and the hair transplant surgery is decided accordingly. If the hair procedure is carried out without prior tests, hair loss might occur after the transplantation. Therefore, their tests are examined first. If deficiency is noticed, zinc or anemia for instance, it would be treated with suitable medication and the existing hair is strengthened.
If a hormonal disorder is being detected, the patient is advised to get treatments first and the hair loss could be prevented.

What is the Hair Loss in Women and What are the Reasons

 

In recent years, women also prefer hair transplantation. The hair transplantation technique is the same for both men and women. Only their reasons are different: In the areas where hair loss occurs in men, hair only becomes weaker and thinner in women.

There are many reasons for Hair Loss in Women. First, we need to look at the source of the problem and solve this problem. Our Specialist doctor will give you the best advice. The most significant reasons for hair loss are as follows;

  • Hormonal
    80% of hair loss in women is Androgenetic Alopecia (Hair loss due to male hormone). Hair loss in women cannot be easily diagnosed as in men and tests must be carried out.
  • Menopause
    Fifty percent of women approaching the age of 50 generally may experience hair loss problem. This condition gets  worse while women approach the menopause period. Hormones support hair growth, so when estrogen hormone decreases, hair weakens and hair loss problem emerges.
  • Stress / Depression
    Extreme stress is one of the hair loss reasons. Depression, psychosis and the drugs used in their treatment may affect hair and cause hair loss.
  • Childbirth
    After pregnancy, a hormonal disorder may occur. After the delivery, the hormonal level is at its lowest and that can trigger a hair loss. 
  • Cosmetic
    Our increased cosmetic habits can trigger mechanical chemical and physical issues.  Hair  exposure to excessive heat (dryer), perms, tying the hair too tight, chemical hair dyes or hair de-colorants, straightening products may damage the hair and causes hair loss.
  • Vitamin and mineral deficiency
    Vitamin and minerals deficiency  is another factor of hair loss.  If vitamins and minarets like B12, vitamin D, biotin, folic acid, iron, and zinc are low, the hair roots are under- nourished and hair loss occurs.
  • Improper diet
    Nutritional causes of hair loss is another frequently experienced factor. Our hair is a living organ and needs to be nourished.  Irregular and unbalanced diet, hunger for a long time, improper diet, and high carbohydrate content food consumption can cause hair loss.
  • Other various Diseases
    Cancer treatments like chemotherapy and some diseases like polycystic ovary syndrome, thyroid, diabetes, and anemia can also cause sudden hair loss. Besides to genetic hair loss, skin and internal diseases also cause hair loss. Some skin issues such as psoriasis, acne, eczema, fungus, lichen disease, over-lubricated skin can affect the scalp and cause Hair loss. 

Do ı need a full hair cut?

Unshaven hair transplantation is generally preferred by our female patients. Only the backside of the head (the donor area) is shaved and the necessary amount of follicular units are extracted. This process is known as the “Window Method”. 

Generally women have long hair so the shaved area is being covered by the remaining hair.

 

 

Which type of hair transplant for women

2 types of hair transplantation are preferred in women.

Densification Of sparse areas : Sapphire method is generally preferred. The Sapphire blade opens slits in between existing hair preventing them from being damaged. 

Fixing a receding Forehead Line: It is also known as the forehead contraction process. Hair transplantation is performed onto the forehead area and forehead line is lowered. In that case the DHI technique is performed.

What are the stages of hair transplant?

  • 1. Consultation
  • 2. Extracting
  • Slits openings
  • Implanting Grafts

 

Blood test are made, then the first meeting with the hair transplant expert is held. A consultation during which  the patients’ expectations are discussed, A form is filled out, the patient’s health problems, hair loss history, habits, health issues are all questioned. 

The recipient areas  are determined.  Then the donor area is shaved then numbed with local anesthesia.

 

 

 

The hair follicles are being extracted from the designated donor area. Hair follicles are removed with 0.7 or 0.8 mm punch tips with the help of a micro-motor. The follicles are removed without damaging the hair tissue, 1 hair root produces an average of 2 to 3 hair follicles. With this method, 55-60 (or more) hair implantation per square centimeter is possible. The hair follicles are collected and kept in a special solution.

This step is very important and can be performed only by the hair transplant expert since the slits should be opened in the appropriate direction, angles and depth to achieve a natural appearance. 

This is the stage of implanting individual hair follicles by hair implantation specialists into the channels that are opened by the Specialist doctor. Patience is very important during this process. This stage takes between 2 and 5 hours on average according to the number of hair follicles. In the DHI Method, direct hair transplantation is performed with Choi pens. During this process, television or music is switched on in the operation room to provide comfort for the patient. After the implant procedure is completed, the Specialist doctor provides the final checks and the area where the hair follicles are removed is covered with a small bandage. This bandage is removed the next day.
