Providing information on the subject, Trawellmed Health Manager and Hair Transplant Specialist Songül Alcı said, “Hair transplantation methods, which are widely used today against hair problems, are preferred by both women and men. The most important point to know in this regard is that hair transplantation is a serious operation and must be performed by experts in an operating room environment. Many truths must come together for the hair transplantation process to be effective. Experts are the ones who will guide the patient most accurately in this regard. Hair transplantation, as it is known, is the process of taking healthy hair follicles from the area between the ears and transferring them to the desired hairless areas. "In order to achieve a successful result from these procedures, the complicated process must be managed and planned very accurately," he said.
The age of those applying for hair transplantation has decreased significantly, but be careful!..
Stating that the age of those who apply for hair transplantation has decreased a lot, Songül Alcı underlined that one should be very careful in such cases.
“The only solution to the hair loss problem, which occurs until the age of 17, is still hair transplantation. In the past, it was said that regardless of the opening, transplantation should not be done before the age of 20. However, when the hair problem becomes more than just an aesthetic problem, it can cause psychological problems and self-confidence problems at a very young age. In such cases, we especially recommend the following. If the person is under the age of 20 but the hair loss is not very advanced, it is recommended to wait to have a hair transplant. However, on the other hand, we state that it would be appropriate for the procedure to be performed on the person who is at this age but has serious gaps in his hair and has severe hair loss. Additionally, hair transplantation is an aesthetic operation. The patient's expectations should be understood by having long conversations with the person who wants to have it done, and whether he/she will be happy with the result and the limits of the procedure, if any, should be explained well. Otherwise, making the person unhappy is inevitable, even if you are technically successful. "If the patient's expectations from the procedure are very high and his/her conditions are not suitable, and his/her psychology cannot handle this situation, it would be beneficial not to perform transplantation." He spoke as follows.
There is a serious treatment protocol!
Alcı continued his words as follows.
“As we mentioned before, hair transplantation is a surgical procedure just like plastic surgery, nose surgery, breast prosthesis, and tummy tuck procedures, and should never be taken lightly. But unfortunately, this issue is carried out as a rote system in some underground places. Fortunately, with the Ministry of Health taking action, various initiatives and trainings have now come to the fore to prevent these underground places and procedures carried out under unhealthy conditions. We reiterate the importance of this every time. Hair transplantation is not just about the surgical part of the job. There is a serious treatment protocol. In addition to root care, existing hair thickening treatment, hair loss slowing treatments, and even scalp care, a very conscious treatment protocol should be applied before, during and after the procedure, which must be determined in the patient by the dietitian and endocrinologist. "It is a very important factor that clinics located in the hospital are preferred, so the patient is under the hospital's guarantee."
