Men with androgenic type hair loss (based on age, hormones and heredity) is the patient group to which we apply the hair transplantation most frequently. Due to this reason, the most frequent aesthetic intervention in men is hair transplantation. Moreover, those with bald areas on their heads or eyebrows following a burn; those who had hair transplantation previously but who are not happy with the results; those who have partial bald areas following a facelift which they had before; those with partly bald areas as based on some diseases and those with female-type hair loss are all patient group candidates for hair transplantation.

The procedure carried out in hair transplantation is the transfer of the hair taken from a specific area of the body to another area of the body. The result you shall get shall vary as based on the person and the features of the hair.

Follicular Unit Extraction, FUE, method is the most developed method which we use as the hair transplantation method.

Grass head look is an indication that required careful work is not carried out and transplantation is not performed with the correct technique. At the same time, it might be due to an operation realized by an inexperienced team without considering the direction of the follicles and the natural hairline.
