Hair loss is a problem that affects two out of every three men and one out of every five women. While some men and women are not disturbed by hair loss, those who are affected at a younger age or even in old age may develop psychological and social difficulties as a result of hair loss. Many manufacturers will cash in on the insecurity that is felt, selling products that in fact will not work.

The only proven and scientific method to reverse baldness and regain hair growth in balding areas is hair transplantation. This may sound bizarre, but it is a well established and relatively minor medical procedure that can have astounding results in men and women. Procedures are determined by global and common practices, producing satisfactory, natural and permanent results.

Cosmedica is based in Turkey and is one of few medical institutions in the world that accepts patients from all over the world. Cosmedica in Istanbul offers the services of a leading surgeon to perform hair transplant procedures at an affordable rate with an easy recovery period that allows patients to travel home the day after.

“Our FUE hair transplant services are highly sought after,” says Dr Levent Acar, Medical Surgeon at Cosmedica. “We are one of the best known and respected hair transplant clinics in the Turkey. Our patients benefit from our any years of experience and advanced expertise and can expect a successful outcome from their procedure.”

Cosmedica uses Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) to improve or eliminate baldness in men and women. FUE is a procedure where hair follicles are extracted from the back of the neck and from the sides of the head in the form of follicular units. These grafts are removed without any cutting involved by using micro motors equipped with special punch tips of 0.6mm to 0.1mm.

Follicular units are transplanted in thin or bald areas in their natural form by opening hair canals in the places where the extracted grafts are to be places. The angle, depth and frequency of the canals is very important. How natural the hair growth appears after surgery depends on accurately calculating and creating ideal hair canals.

“We ensure that the canals are identified correctly, with no cutting involved, and then insert each graft at the angle of hair growth for a completely natural looking outcome,” says Dr Acar. “It is a painstaking process but involves no surgery whatsoever, so there is no scarring. Another advantage is that it heals very quickly with no pain or numbness at the back of the neck after the operation.”

The automatic system used by Cosmedica shortens the operation period and increases the number of grafts collected from each operation. No tissue other than the stem cell of a single hair at a time is extracted or otherwise collected from the area where grafts are taken. On an average day, 4000 to 6000 grafts can be extracted, depending on the structure of the donor area.

“The most important stage of the operation to achieve a natural and dense look is opening the hair canals in the area of transplantation,” says Dr Acar. “Once the hair canals have been opened, the operation is completed by very carefully and gently placing each hair follicle inside them very carefully.”

“We will employ all necessary skills to ensure that the FUE hair transplant procedure is carried out to the highest expectations of the patient,” says Dr Acar. “We use the most advanced techniques to ensure the future healthy growth of transplanted hair.”

The greatest benefit of this type of hair transplant surgery is that it leaves no scars and obtains a totally natural look once the hair starts growing again. There is no sign of a transplant once hair starts growing again and healing is quick and return to a normal routine is possible within a few short days. Patients are free to travel the day after surgery.

Cosmedica ensures their patients of the best attention and care to ensure they leave with confidence not only in the procedure but also in the best outcome in terms of restoring lost or thin thin hair to a full, healthy, natural looking form. Cosmedica offers the revolutionary FUE hair transplant technique to male and female patients from around the world.
