Hair Transplantation for Women
Hair transplantation in women is a hair restoration method applied to women who have problems with hair loss or baldness. Hair loss in women can often occur as a result of androgenetic alopecia, hormonal changes, stress, childbirth, nutritional deficiencies, or the side effects of other health problems. Hair transplantation in women is a method that gives successful results and provides a natural appearance.
How is Hair Transplantation Performed in Women?
Hair transplantation in women is usually performed using the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method. This method involves taking the hair follicles one by one and transplanting them to the bald area. This method is a less invasive and less irritating option than other methods.
Hair transplantation in women is usually performed under local anesthesia and the duration of the procedure may vary depending on the needs of the person and the size of the area where hair transplantation is needed.
Healing Process
The recovery process after hair transplantation in women usually takes place within a few days after the procedure. In the first few days, symptoms such as redness, mild pain, swelling and crusting may be seen in the hair transplant area. These symptoms usually disappear within a few days. However, the full recovery period can vary between 6-12 months and it may take some time for the hair to fully settle and the results to become visible.
