Patient Guide
So, what awaits you now? We have gathered this process, consisting of three stages, under the title ‘Basic Stages of Hair Transplantation.’
Preparation Stage: We can describe the processes leading up to entering the clinic and starting the local anesthesia process as the preparation stage. These steps are implemented sequentially.
* Blood Test: This step, a part of the process, is performed to determine if the patient has any condition preventing the operation. The blood collection process takes a maximum of 1 minute, and by the time you listen to the process information presentation prepared by our doctors, you will already have your blood test results. After the presentation, upon learning your blood test results, if there is no obstacle to the process, you will continue your procedure from where you left off.
* Hair Transplant Planning: In the meeting with your responsible doctor, your expectations will first be heard. Then, based on your request, alternatives that can be applied according to technical information regarding this expectation will be verbally explained and presented to you with drawings by your doctor. The common ground where the patient and the doctor meet will be the final version of your hair transplant design. After your design is completed, the distribution of these hairs to areas will be determined based on the agreed upon quantity. Then your hair will be shaved, preparing you for the local anesthesia process. Meanwhile, your clothes will be placed in closets dedicated exclusively to you, and you will be given a patient gown.
2. Local Anesthesia Process: Operations are performed with the local anesthesia process. The patient is awake during the operation. While there is a possibility of a slight burning sensation only in the first few injections when starting the local anesthesia process, the patient does not feel
anything during the rest of the procedure. Although the duration of the effect of local anesthesia varies from patient to patient, it takes approximately 15-20 minutes.
3. Hair Transplant Operation: The Hair Transplant operation consists of 3 main phases.
* Extraction Process,
* Canal Process,
* Transplantation Process. After the hair follicles are carefully placed in the canals, the operation is completed.
Afterwards, you will receive training on care processes and be sent home to rest. The next day, your first washing and check-ups will be done before you leave for home. Throughout the next 10 days, you will have online follow-ups, and your questions will be answered.
