Bio FUE hair transplantation, also known as Follicular Unit Extraction, is a hair transplantation technique. The feature of the FUE method is that no incision or stitching is made on the scalp. Thus, it provides an advantage both during the operation and during the healing process. Besides, the fact that there will be no scar and incision scar after the operation is one of the reasons why patients choose the FUE method. Before explaining bio FUE hair transplantation, we will explain the reasons for hair loss.
Before the hair transplantation, things that cause hair loss
When we examine the causes of hair loss, many causes and triggering factors emerge. Hair loss, which is one of the most encountered problems today, can be caused by genetic reasons, hormonal reasons, chronic diseases, excessive stress, unhealthy diet and drugs used. Hair loss usually starts at later ages. And in a few years, hair loss begins, especially on the top of the head and on the front strip of the head. The causes of male pattern hair loss are generally due to genetic reasons.
Female pattern hair loss is less visible than men. There may be genetic reasons for this type of hair loss. Thinning and dead hair follicles die. And hair loss begins.
Hair analysis is done before hair transplantation. In this analysis, the reason for hair loss is examined. The problem of hair loss is investigated and treated accordingly. Hormonal diseases, vitamin and mineral deficiencies cause hair loss because hair follicles are fed with these food sources.
Stages of Bio FUE hair transplantation
Local anesthesia is used in Bio FUE hair transplantation. Thanks to local anesthesia, only the area to be transplanted is anesthetized, not the whole body. The hair follicles are collected one by one after the place to be transplanted cleaned for the procedure. Root collection is performed with the incision tips between 0.6-0.8 mm by means of the FUE motor. The grafts taken contain an average of 2-4 hair strands.
The hair follicles must not be damaged during the procedure. Therefore, the doctor who performs hair transplantation should be cautious and sensitive. Since thousands of roots will be removed from the donor area during hair transplantation, the small size of the tip to be used affects the healing process of the area.
After all hair follicles are collected, the hair transplantation phase begins. Channels should be opened very carefully for hair transplantation. While these channels are opened, the doctor should be very careful and sensitive.
One of the most critical issues in hair transplantation is the angle of the channel where the hair follicle will be transplanted. A great deal of effort goes into achieving the same look like the natural hairstyle. Angles should be given differently in each part of the head. Otherwise, the hair will not take the desired shape. Another factor for being natural is that the hairline should be determined correctly. The forehead area and the area where the hair begins should be calculated with correct proportions.
How is Bio FUE hair transplantation done?
With the help of micromotors, hair follicles are collected one by one from the nape or upper ear hair area, using unique heads with a diameter of 0.6-0.8 mm, as we have already mentioned. Another feature of the FUE Motor is that the rate of breaking down grafts with multiple roots is less; that is, the success of the follicular unit to maintain its integrity is higher. For these reasons, it can be said that hair transplantation has turned into a more comfortable operation thanks to FUE Motor. The scalpel is not used in the donor area, no stitches are made in this area, and the most significant advantage is that the roots do not leave a visible scar at the points.
After Bio FUE Hair Transplant Operation
After the hair transplant, you can immediately go home, drive a car and continue your daily life. There may be very mild edema after the day of the procedure. The pain usually does not happen. Your doctor will tell you what to do after hair transplantation. Paying attention to all the recommendations given by your doctor is extremely important in terms of the effect of the successful operation. It is essential to keep the area sterile after hair transplantation. For this reason, make sure that your pillow is clean. For a more comfortable and comfortable sleep, you can take a position on the back at an angle of 45 degrees.
You should not wash your hair frequently after hair transplantation. Ideally, washing your hair every two days will not harm your hair follicles. And it would be best if you weren’t harsh when washing your hair. It is recommended that you wash your hair as if you were doing a gentle massage.
The hair that grows from the hair follicles undergoing hair transplantation grows within 2-3 weeks, but the hair falls out within 2-3 months. This situation is temporary, so you don’t have to worry. After a few weeks of rest, the hair starts to grow again, and after six months, it becomes routine.
The most important thing to know is whether the hair can be nourished after transplantation. If your hair cannot be fed healthily, it is inevitable to shed it again. As a result of the irregular diet, your body cannot store enough vitamins. Hair roots are also fed with vitamins. A, E, C and many vitamins are essential for your hair follicles. You can protect your hair follicles by eating a healthy and regular diet.
Transplanted hair continues to grow between 6-12 months, and the hair strands become thicker and longer. In this way, you can shape your hair as you wish and create styles according to yourself.
During this process, you should keep your hair away from extreme heat and extreme cold. Such extreme weather conditions can damage your hair follicles. In particular, you should protect your hair from direct sunlight. You can use a hat for this.
At the end of 12-18 months, the final appearance of the hair transplant occurs at this stage.
