Types of Hair Transplant Procedures Available in Turkey
- FUE Hair Transplant: Follicular Unit Extraction involves extracting individual follicles and implanting them one by one. It is minimally invasive, leaves no linear scar, and is a popular choice for natural results.
- Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant: A refined version of FUE using sapphire-tipped blades to create recipient sites. This can support denser placement and smoother healing.
- DHI Hair Transplant: Direct Hair Implantation uses a specialised implanter pen to extract and place follicles in one step, allowing precise angle and density control.
- Beard & Eyebrow Transplant: Restores fullness to sparse beards, moustaches, or eyebrows using the same follicle-transfer principles.
- Female Hair Transplant: Tailored techniques for women experiencing thinning hair or hairline concerns, often without the need for full head shaving.
- Hair Transplant Combined With PRP Therapy: Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy may be added to support healing and strengthen existing and transplanted follicles.
Understanding Hair Transplant Surgery
A hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure that relocates healthy hair follicles from a donor area (usually the back of the scalp) to areas of thinning or baldness, known as the recipient area.Because donor follicles are typically resistant to the hormone responsible for pattern hair loss, transplanted hair tends to provide long-lasting, natural results.
Hair transplant surgery commonly addresses:
- Receding hairline
- Thinning hair and reduced density
- Bald patches
- Male pattern baldness
- Hairline restoration for a balanced facial frame
Modern techniques focus on natural hairline design and follicular unit extraction, restoring hair that looks like it always belonged there.

The Hair Transplant Procedure Explained
A hair transplant is performed under local anaesthesia, so you stay awake and comfortable throughout. Depending on the number of grafts, the procedure typically takes 6 to 8 hours, often with a break.
The general steps include:
- Local anaesthesia applied to donor and recipient areas
- Follicle extraction from the donor zone
- Graft preparation and sorting
- Recipient site creation at natural angles and density
- Implantation following a customised hairline design
- Post-procedure dressing and detailed aftercare guidance
After the procedure, most patients return to their hotel the same day with full instructions, supported by our coordination team.
All clinical decisions are made by your treating specialist based on your individual assessment.
Hair Transplant Recovery Timeline
From Consultation to Recovery, Every Step is Guided
Recovery is gradual, and most patients are reassured by how manageable each stage feels
1
First Few Days After Surgery
Mild swelling, redness, and tenderness in the donor and recipient areas are normal. A first wash is usually guided by the clinic. Discomfort is minimal and well managed.
2
Scalp Healing & Temporary Shedding (Weeks 2 to 8)
Scabs heal and fall away within about 2 weeks. Transplanted hairs then go through “shock loss” or temporary shedding, which is a completely normal part of the process and not a sign of failure.
3
Long-Term Hair Growth Results
New growth usually begins around 3 to 4 months. Noticeable density appears by 6 to 9 months, with final results visible at around 12 to 18 months.
