No Shave Hair Transplant

Many people who want to have hair transplantation give up on the operation when they learn that the hair needs to be shaved. It is a very common request that people do not want to be seen with a shaved head in hair transplant operations. Various methods have been tried in plastic surgery to eliminate this shaving problem that occurs during hair transplantation.The aim is to provide patients with a comfortable process during the hair transplant process as well as during the recovery period after the hair transplant procedure. In other words, in addition to creating a natural appearance for both the patient and the surgeon, it is of great importance for the patients to return to their work and social lives as soon as possible.

Until a few years ago, in traditional hair transplantation, the area had to be completely shaved when multiple or individual hair follicles were taken. It was not an easy situation for the patients who had to walk around with half shaved hair in this society. In fact, it was a very common situation that many people who wanted to have a hair transplant gave up on the procedure when they learned that the donor area was shaved during the procedure. Unshaven Hair Transplantation technique is a new technique developed to eliminate this problem.

How is Unshaved Hair Transplant Performed?

People who want to have Unshaven Hair Transplantation are asked to lengthen their hair a little before the operation. The method followed in this procedure is to hide the donor area between the hair that does not need to be processed. In the first stage, the area where the hair follicles will be taken is determined. In the second stage, the surgeon removes the strong and healthy follicles identified with the least possible impact with the help of the team. In the next stage, the hair follicles taken are made ready for planting. In the last stage, the hair transplantation process is completed in a way that creates a natural image.

With the unshaven FUE technique, approximately 4,000 hair follicles can be transplanted in 2 sessions. Between 1 and 3 hair follicles may come out of each hair follicle. Thanks to the tools and techniques used in the FUE technique, the retention rate of the transplanted hair follicles can be increased. Thanks to the developments in plastic surgery such as gold needle pens and micromotor technique, the success of hair transplantation is increasing day by day.

The duration of the operation in hair transplantation varies according to the number of grafts transplanted, the surgeon and the technological equipment of the clinic. However, since this procedure is a little more difficult than the normal FUE technique, it requires more time and effort. For this reason, the fees for unshaven techniques are slightly higher than shaved techniques in many clinics. However, considering the convenience it will provide, it is a very attractive opportunity for many patients who postpone hair transplantation due to shaving.
