Hair shedding is the general problem of approximately 40% of the men over the age of 30. Even though there is a high estimation statistically, there is no doubt that nobody wishes to be bald and so, questions such as What is Hair Transplantation? and How is it done? are being asked frequently. Hearsay information is mostly misleading and hair transplantation is neither an easy nor a painful treatment. There is no risk or complication of the treatments which can be applied easily in the environments with today’s technology if it is applied by specialists. However, from this perspective, it is not true to deduce that everyone can apply hair transplantation. Because only specialist physicians are authorized for this application and if the clinical conditions are not created correctly, the results can be beyond your expectations even though it is a very easy treatment. So practically What is Hair Transplantation? How is it done? Where are the hairs taken from and where are they transplanted?

Hair transplantation might be done with various methods. It is necessary to prefer the method suitable for you, which your physician will make the decision for you. Firstly, an analysis of your hair is made and the quality of both the donor area and the hairless area to make the transplantation is analyzed. Majority of those asking What is hair transplantation? question think that the hair to be transplanted will be taken from others, which is not true. In the hair transplantation, the hairs of the person’s own are used. Whatever the level of baldness is, the hair roots taken from the area up to the level between the two ears starting from the nape where it is known that the hair is not shedding are transplanted to the area of baldness.

Since the density of the area which is not shedding is pretty high, the hairs taken from this area does not form any baldness. The hair taken from the part that we call donor area is transplanted by using the preferred one of the methods counted as FUT, FUE, and DHI to the bald part. Of course, which one of these methods will be chosen is also effective during taking the hair from the source. For example, while there is a possibility for a surgical scar in the transplantation with strip-shaped skin as in the FUT method, no scar would be left in the FUE and DHI techniques since the hairs are picked up one by one and transplanted to the area of transplantation.
Any complication is not expected during the hair transplantation in normal conditions and you can go back to your normal life right after the hair transplantations made by using the next generation methods.
