Types of Hair Transplant Procedures

The types of hair transplant procedures vary according to the doctor’s assessment and which method works best which will give you the needed results with minimal side effects and short downtime.

Why is everyone obsessed about hair transplants? How is the process performed? What are the types of hair transplant procedures? Let’s learn more about this aesthetic journey for both men and women.

The Process Of Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation takes about 2 - 7 hours tops, and you can go back to your home on the same day! It starts with applying local anesthesia to the scalp and preparing it for the surgery.

After that, the doctor makes mini cuts in the nape of your head to extract hair follicles, he makes the needed harvesting to choose valid hair follicles while you rest, finally he reimplants them again to the empty areas of the scalp.

Types Of Hair Transplant Procedures

There are four main types of hair transplant procedures that are performed at Turkey Luxury Clinics which are approved worldwide and these types are:

FUE Technique

Or Follicular Hair Unit Transplant is the most common hair transplant method that is widely used to extract hair units from the donor sites in the head and implanting them elsewhere.

This method is done by using a device called “Micro Motor”, this device has a lot of advantages including:

• Faster hair transplant process
• Larger number of hair follicles are collected
• Preventing damage to the hair grafts
• Implanting the hair follicles in the appropriate angle

The FUE advantages include:

• The cuts are almost invisible which means no scarring
• You can rock a relatively short haircut afterwards that shows the scalp
• Quicker process because of the advanced technique
• Less downtime with minimal discomfort because the cuts are small
• Preferable method for the empty spots in the scalp
• Affordable way to regrow hair!



DHI Technique

Or Direct Hair Implantation method is similar to the FUI method, which includes extracting hair follicles from the donor site which is usually the back of the head, and reimplanting them in the empty spots.

The DHI method is performed using the Choi Pen, a revolutionary device that implants about 40 hair follicles per 1 CM of the scalp and it holds a lot of advantages including:

• Choi pens cultivate hair follicles and reimplant them faster, which is healthier for the hair follicles and prevents exposure to germs
• It is perfect for people with diabetes because it prevents too much cutting and therefore less bleeding
• No need to shave the head with Choi Pen

The DHI advantages include:

• Faster recovery and short downtime due to the accuracy of the procedure
• Great results with a natural-looking hair 
• Strong follicles that remain healthy and sterilized during the procedure
• It is preferred for smaller areas like the eyebrows or eyelashes which require a certain implanting direction

Perkutan Technique

Perkutan technique is another advanced and common type of hair transplantation, similar to the previous methods, it involves extracting hair follicles and reimplanting them in the bald areas.

Perkutan method is performed using a cylindrical-shaped device with a metal needle at the end to do all the work, and here are the advantages of this device:

• The mini-small needle allows for more accuracy, which means less visible cuts and fewer side effects
• It allows to control the density of the hair and the direction of the hair exit
• It is possible to implant 30-45 hair follicles per square centimeter, therefore higher density and full coverage

What about the advantages of the Perkutan Method?

• Perkutan technique provides more realistic results 
• The formation of small holes allows for a shorter downtime
• The scars are almost invisible
• It is preferable for people with fair or light hair

Sapphire Technique

Similar to all the other transplantation methods, the Sapphire hair transplant is performed by extracting the hair follicles from the nape of the head, choosing the valid ones and reimplanting them in the bald areas.

This is an advanced form of the FUE method, with a huge upgrading by using the sapphire blades which hold all these advantages:

• This gemstone is extra sharp, which allows for more accuracy in creating channels
• It is also smooth, meaning less side effects and shorter recovery time
• High precision, therefore perfect results are expected

What are the Advantages of the Sapphire technique?

• Natural results that last forever 
• Minimal side effects and complications and fast recovery
• The sharpness of the cuts allows for harvesting more hair follicles which means higher density at the empty spots
• Preferable for people who have metal sensitivity
