Frequently Asked Questions
People who are experiencing hair loss due to factors such as age, hormones, and genetics, and who are over 18 years old, are generally eligible for hair transplant.
One of the latest and most common technologies used in hair transplantation is the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method. FUE involves individually extracting hair follicles and transplanting them to the recipient area. In this technique, the surgeon uses microsurgical tools to remove the hair follicles one by one and then implants them into the desired area.
In addition to FUE, another technology used in hair transplantation is the ICE FUE hair transplantation method. As the name suggests, ICE-FUE (Ice-Cooled Extraction-Follicular Unit Extraction) is based on the FUE method but uses a cold solution during the extraction of hair follicles.
Both of these methods are widely used in hair transplant clinics and are constantly advancing with technological improvements. When choosing a hair transplant clinic, it is important to research the technologies and methods they use, and it would be beneficial to have a detailed discussion with your surgeon regarding this matter.
