In our clinic, hair transplantation in HIV-positive patients is carried out in a sterile and appropriate environment together with our experienced doctor. The method we apply is the FUE method. This technique is the process of removing hair follicles from the scalp, in form of individual, bilateral, triple follicular units, without any incisions and sutures with the help of a micromotor, which has special tips of 0.6-1.1 mm diameter. It is the only root extraction method used in hair transplantation. Healthy adult individuals with adequate hair in the area between the two ears, we which we call the donor area, are considered suitable candidates for hair transplantation.

Follicular units (grafts) are removed from the back and side areas of the scalp with hair and transplanted to the desired area. It is indispensable that the process is carried out by an expert team in order to prevent damage to the natural appearance, hair frequency and donor area.

With the FuE technique approximately 5000+ grafts, in other words, 12,000-14,000 hair strands can be transplanted in one session. Previously it was only possible to carry the technique out in 3-4 days with the help of non-motorized micro tools. With this method only 500-600 grafts in approximately 8 hour could be transplanted but thanks to the micromotor system of today it is possible to extract a high amount of grafts in 2-3 hours.

This is an operation under local anesthesia, where the person’s hair is cut very short and which lasts for 7 to 9 hours. During the first stage, the hair follicles are collected, then a canal is opened to transplant the collected roots and finally the individual sowing of the roots is performed.

The hair in the upper part of the nape and between the two ears do not fall out because they are insensitive to the testosterone hormone and since this hair is used in the hair transplantation it will not fall out despite the later presence of testosterone.

There is no age limit for hair transplantation. If the hair loss area and the donor area of the person are suitable, the hair transplantation can be carried out at any age.

The most suitable time for hair transplant is when aesthetic anxiety arises in the patient. Hair transplantation can be carried out in every month of the year. Experts recommend the summer months for hair transplantation  because of the rapid regeneration of the skin and faster hair growth.

After the hair transplantation, thin crusts may occur in the transplantation and donor area. These crusts will wash off like dandruffs and disappear completely in approximately 7-10 days. The patient can continue his daily life by wearing a hat during this period and it also constitutes no problem for work.

After the hair transplantation the hair will start to grow within the first three months. And after 9 months to 1 year after the transplantation the desired look will be achieved.

But let’s not forget; the frequency of the transplanted hair is not enough to make the result of hair transplantation look natural. More hair does not equal a more natural result. The important thing is to distribute the amount of existing hair throughout the open area. If the taken graft amounts is not enough to close the open areas, it is possible to create a full head of hair with small touches and the right distribution. The second important condition for the natural appearance of hair transplantation is to transplant the taken roots with the right angle. This angle depends on the experience of the doctor, the modernity of the used tool and the chosen canal diameter, which differs in every patient.
