Painless hair transplantation is performed with a microsurgical procedure known as the FUE method. In this method, the doctor applies local anesthesia with medical devices equipped with a special tool at the tip. It removes your hair follicles that are resistant to loss. Meanwhile, the motor used to extract the hair follicles is turned to low speed.

Recovery Time

The healing time is very short to perform procedures such as painless hair transplantation without any incision on the scalp. After this application, which does not require any stitches, crusting occurs on the shiny skin. However, it takes a short time for the crusts to multiply. The patient can be discharged the day after the application. Models where hair transplantation is performed and hair follicles are removed (i.e. donor area and recipient area) must ensure that they do not come into contact with the sun and are not exposed to excessive heat for a few periods.

Moreover, the comfort level increases. Then, the necessary channels for hair transplantation are opened. Hair ends are transplanted to areas numbed with local anesthesia. Additionally, hair transplantation is performed without any healing or pain. This method is frequently preferred because it is suitable for everyone. Physicians use this procedure in their clinics without difficulty. However, an important issue that needs to be taken into consideration is the bringing together of these clinics by the Ministry of Health. It is important for you to perform the procedure in clinics that comply with these procedures.

  • Benefits of Painless Hair Transplantation
  • The patient has nothing to fear during hair transplantation.
  • The risk of infection is minimized.
  • It is a comfortable application.
  • The patient can return to work the day after the application.
  • The patient’s hair looks natural.
  • Your hair will not fall out after it grows back.
  • Painless hair transplantation has proven results.
  • Your sparse areas are completely covered with hair. When your hair grows back, it becomes full and healthy.
  • Painless hair transplantation can be performed on patients of all ages and genders. 

    After the application, the patient looks younger and more confident.

Thanks to these and similar benefits, patients will regain their old appearance after hair transplantation. This period may vary depending on the procedures and sessions performed. Ultimately, after a period of time, people will see the results of hair transplantation.

The purpose of hair transplantation with the painless hair transplantation method is to give healthy and natural hair to people who have hair loss or hair problems for various reasons, in a comfortable way and with modern medical applications. Today, approximately fifty percent of all men over the age of fifty suffer from hair loss.

For this reason, painless hair transplantation is the most preferred type of cosmetic procedure for men. Hair loss can be seen in both women and men due to genetics, traumatic injuries, aging, and various medical conditions, and if there are enough hair follicles to be collected, hair transplantation is performed for hair loss for any reason. Hair transplantation can be done not only on the head, but also in other areas with insufficient hair such as beard, eyebrows and moustache. Doctors aim to perform these painless procedures with comfort for the customers.

The Most Comfortable Hair Transplantation Method; FUE Technique

Painless hair transplantation FUE method is based on microsurgery and is the most comfortable among hair transplantation methods. One of the subtypes of the FUE method is the DHI technique. In this method, the hair follicle is collected according to the FUE method and the hair is transplanted after the channels are opened with implanter needles. In addition, FUE, painless hair transplantation is also performed within micro-motor FUE and robotic FUE applications. The FUE method, which is also used within the unshaven hair transplantation techniques, has minor differences. However, the doctor performs all of them based on the FUE method.

The difference between these sub-methods is the quality and type of material used. The goal of all this technical improvement is to finish the surgery with less pain. During the FUE hair transplantation operation, the surgeon intervenes at a micro level in two parts of the body. For painless hair transplantation, first hair follicles are collected from the donor area with the help of a micro motor, and then a millimetric incision is made in the hair transplantation area to place the collected follicles. However, the specialist requires anesthesia in these two stages.

It means that the patient does not feel pain when local anesthesia is applied with the needle required for the collection and transplantation of hair follicles for painless hair transplantation. During hair transplantation, local anesthesia is required when removing the roots and during the transplantation process, and this local anesthesia is usually applied with a needle. The needles used for anesthesia are very thin and therefore cause minimal damage to the skin.

PRP method, which is a supporting application, is sometimes included in the FUE technique. The benefits of PRP-supported applications have been proven by scientific studies. PRP application can be used easily before and after the flocking process. The main purpose of PRP Treatment after FUE procedures is to increase the speed and durability of hair follicle development after the application.

PRP procedure is performed by taking people’s own blood. Therefore, allergic reactions are almost never observed. Various complications appear to arise from individuals’ skin structures. This may not apply to everyone.

Painless Hair Transplantation

As in all surgeries, anesthesia is one of the most important issues for a patient to have a comfortable surgical procedure in painless hair transplantation. In hair transplantation surgery, anesthesia is applied to both the donor area and the area where the hair follicles are placed. Therefore, considering the size of the application area, the necessity and importance of anesthesia cannot be ignored.

Local anesthesia is used for hair transplantation and is the most commonly used anesthesia in this type of hair transplantation. Painless hair transplantation has now become much easier with injection hair transplantation and is performed by the doctor without using a painless pen-type needle. A special painless anesthesia device sprays an internally placed anesthetic, allowing the medicine to penetrate under the skin.

This device, which is designed to provide patients with advanced anxiety with comfortable working opportunities both physically and mentally, can be used by any hair transplantation device or durable and painless hair transplantation surgery models. There are many patients who want to have their procedures done without surgery. They stated that the products with this hair loss problem lost their hair due to genetics or stress.

In general, genetic structure is seen as one of the primary causes of hair loss. Many experiments have proven that hair loss can occur at an early age due to genetic factors and the structure passed from family to children. At this point, many people who have genetic hair loss problems have resorted to hair transplantation. These people can have hair transplantation without surgery. At this point, painless hair transplantation is an answer for individuals experiencing hair loss problems. It is an application that can be performed alongside PRP, which can be used in painless hair transplants, and supports the treatment. After PRP-assisted hair transplantation applications, it has been observed that hair follicles grow stronger.

In addition, another benefit of PRP-assisted hair transplantation applications is the fact that hair follicles are healthier and hair grows faster. It has been proven that the hair growth rate increases after PRP-assisted hair transplants compared to hair transplants without PRP. According to this information, it can be said that PRP application strengthens and develops hair follicles and helps them grow faster compared to normal procedures.

In addition, allergic reactions are not expected after PRP application and such complications absolutely do not occur. The reason for this is that the PRP process involves taking the person’s own blood and injecting the liquid into a solution back into the individual. This process achieved high success when applied with flocking process.

Difference Between Needle Local Anesthesia and Needle Free Local Anesthesia

In painless hair transplantation surgery; It is essential to apply local anesthesia to prevent pain during the root harvesting and canal opening phase. Although the needles used in needle local anesthesia are used with a very thin tip, they require many needle strokes to completely numb a large area.

The needle entering the skin injects the anesthetic agent while withdrawing horizontally from the farthest point it can reach. This is called local anesthesia. Thanks to the pressurized spray, it is possible for the anesthetic agent to penetrate under the skin through capillary openings.

Advantages of Painless Hair Transplantation

Painless hair transplantation in anesthesia procedures performed by injection method; Injecting the anesthetic agent into the donor area covering the transplantation areas from the forehead back and the nape of the neck between the two ears requires many needle strokes. Dozens of needle strokes can cause injection-induced swelling, redness and bruising.

The anesthesia method, which is compatible with the medication method, not only prevents this situation but also minimizes the risk of infection. Another advantage of this device in painless hair transplantation surgery is: It uses less anesthesia to numb a larger area in a shorter time.

Other Factors That Promote Painless Hair Growth

As in all hair transplantation surgeries, a special device called micromotor is used during the hair sac collection phase in painless hair transplantation. Using the micro motor at low speed is one of the factors that promote painless hair growth.

The fact that the cylindrical needles of the micromotor are made of medical steel rich in chrome and nickel and are not blunt is a supportive factor for pain relief.

Not blunting the tipped steel blades used during grooving or using a sapphire blade in the process are also factors that can reduce pain.

The definition of painless hair transplantation applications is hair transplantation performed with local anesthesia during hair transplantation and hair harvesting.

Local Anesthesia with Needle Injector

In order to apply local anesthesia during the hair collection phase and the channel opening process, an injection is required before the painless hair transplantation process. This is the most primitive form of the process. To compare the pain felt here; It may be the same anesthesia the dentist applied to your teeth.

For this reason, this procedure is called painless hair transplantation. At the same time, the needles used for anesthesia are very thin and cause little damage to the skin. Injection of local anesthesia with needle; When the needle enters the skin during hair transplantation, the needle is slowly withdrawn until it reaches the horizontal extension limit. This is the process that takes place in painless hair transplantation. In this way, the widest spread is achieved with the smallest needle holes.

The application of needle-based topical anesthesia under better conditions and with less pain is an anesthesia application performed with a needle-free injector. There is a pressurized application that allows the anesthesia to enter through a small capillary opening in the skin without the use of a needle;

 -hair collection

Of course, in the painless hair transplantation process, a motor is used to cut and separate the skin around the hair. Therefore, it is necessary to numb the scalp at this stage. Here, even if anesthetized, the micromotor is used at low speed and the tip is made of very sharp steel, which is another factor that increases operability. An indicator of clinical quality is the quality of these materials themselves. Unfortunately, this may not be easy to understand during surgery. But you can see this clearly during the subsequent treatment process.

Collecting the hair consists of two stages: first, the roots are separated with micromotor-assisted punches, and then they are collected precisely with forceps.

 -hair transplant

To perform hair transplantation, you need to open a channel in the area to be transplanted. There are two basic principles here. The first is to pre-open the channel (also known as slit). The second is to transplant hair with the Choi needle channel opening injection pen used in the DHI method.

It is inevitable to use steel needles in the DHI method. Therefore, the quality of the steel (needle) in this area is directly proportional to the quality of the clinic or its importance for this job. However, these channels can be opened with sapphire chips instead of traditional FUE-based steel blades. Advance planning makes this post-surgical recovery process much more comfortable. This is because the sapphire blade is much smoother than steel, minimizing damage to the skin.

Necessity of Anesthesia in Hair Transplantation

Of course, anesthesia is used in FUE hair transplantation. Anesthesia before the two basic FUE stages is inevitable for procedure comfort. Here, the anesthetic agent injected under the skin only causes numbness in the area, allowing minimal intervention.

It can be clearly stated that the method of anesthesia administration also affects comfort. At this point, expressions such as painless hair transplantation and needle-free flocking are named in this way to show the comfort and convenience of these applications.

The anesthesia methods that painless hair transplantation (painless hair transplantation) tries to represent are as follows:

General anesthesia: This method is rarely applied to hair transplantation. Since this anesthesia is a complete sleep, there are various risks.

Anesthesia applied to specific areas: It can be defined as paralyzing a specific area of ​​the body, which is not the method used in hair transplantation surgery.

Local anesthesia: It is the most used hair transplantation method today. Needle syringes and needleless (pressure infiltration) syringes are used in the application of this method. This method can be described as the most comfortable method. It can be administered by inhalation or through a vein in the arm. The factor that increases comfort here is that it can be applied in personalized doses and the effect can be eliminated at any time by constantly controlling it. It is a very safe method if you consider that it can also be applied to babies.

Local Anesthesia with Needle Injector

Normal hair transplantation procedures require local anesthesia during the harvesting and grooving stages. This local anesthesia is performed with the most primitive needles. To explain this pain, the same analogy with injection anesthesia that dentists use is used. In addition, the needles used for needle anesthesia are very thin and cause minimal damage to the skin.

Local anesthesia with a syringe needle is performed by slowly pulling the needle backwards from the farthest point it can reach horizontally after the needle enters the skin. Therefore, the widest spread is achieved with the smallest pinholes. This application is called needle-free injection anesthesia application. In painless hair transplantation, pressure is applied instead of a needle through the opening of a very small capillary in the skin to penetrate the anesthesia-based material.

This section describes two types of needleless local anesthesia injectors. Plastic body local anesthesia needle: It is a type that can take effect for 1-2 minutes and low pressure may occur.

Steel Local Anesthesia Needle: The pressure is much higher and allows more active substance to be delivered under the skin at one time. This allows you to express the duration of an action in seconds. In painless hair transplantation, when the needle-free syringes are released with very little contact with the skin, the active substance released under high pressure reaches the skin. Therefore, there is no pain when inserting the needle.

The Most Comfortable Anesthesia

Applying sedation with needle-free anesthesia. Today, the most advanced way to perform painless hair transplantation is to apply sedation before using a steel needle-free syringe. This procedure requires intravenous sedation minutes before the surgery begins. It starts by giving the medicine to the patient intravenously.

Necessary tests are performed before applying various drugs and physicians accordingly inject individuals before painless hair transplantation.

Administering sedation is different from general anesthesia. The patient is fully asleep under general anesthesia, but sedation only relaxes and the patient is conscious.

You can see from here that there is no risk. The sedative can be safely administered to people of all ages, from newborns to the elderly.

Additionally, if the pain threshold is low, you can apply sedatives or perform surgery or have a painless hair transplant as a result of the interview.

The attentive care of the medical staff after the surgery and the examinations to be performed the next day are other factors that affect the comfort of the surgery.

Other Factors That Make Hair Growth Painless

The doctor uses a micromotor device used for hair collection at low speeds.

The cylindrical needles used in micromotors are made of medical steel rich in chromium and nickel.

The point that reduces pain during surgery is the renewal of the cylindrical needle that cuts the scalp without dulling.

The doctor uses a tip made of sapphire element instead of a metal slit (steel tip) to open the channel where the hair follicles are transplanted.

The attentive care of the medical staff after the surgery and the examinations to be performed the next day are other factors that affect the comfort of the surgery.

Painless hair transplantation is used in microsurgery techniques. In a known hair transplantation method, anesthesia is applied through a syringe to provide local anesthesia before the hair follicles are removed and the hair follicles are transplanted. Thanks to painless/needle-free transplantation technology and needle-free anesthesia device, experts now perform hair transplantation painlessly.

This device provides effective and rapid anesthesia by applying pressure to the anesthesia and helps reach the area under the pores. In other words, the device has a high pressure function. It ensures that the patient is anesthetized painlessly and without the use of needles. In this way, patients can perform their procedures comfortably and without difficulty.

Needle-Free Anesthesia Technology

Thanks to the comfortable device, the treatment area is paralyzed and the patient is ready for needle-free surgery. At the same time, applying a special liquid to the scalp during painless hair transplantation will shorten the healing time. You can return to your daily life within 48 hours and continue your sports and other activities within 7 days. However, you need to consult your doctor immediately in case of complications that may occur during this period. Otherwise, you may experience unwanted side effects. This may reverse the benefits of hair transplantation procedures.

There is general information that hair loss will not be observed after hair transplantation with PRP treatment. Likewise, there is a similar belief in hair transplantation applications without PRP. This information is incorrect and hair loss may also occur after hair transplantation. However, it has definitely been observed by patients that PRP-assisted hair transplantation techniques slow down hair loss and strengthen hair follicles. However, PRP can also be used with painless hair transplantation procedures. PRP process is an application that can be used in many areas. It is used not only for hair, but also in the body and many joint areas.

Advantages of Painless/Needle-Free Hair Transplantation

No needles.

It is painless, painless and comfortable.

Provides simple and fast syringe use.

It can be applied to all parts of the head.

Anesthesia spreads faster and the duration of effect of anesthesia is longer.

It relaxes the patient mentally.

There are no holes or cuts in the scalp, so there is no pain and you can do it quickly.

Shock removal occurs faster when the shell is low.

Minimize the risk of infection and pain.

During the painless hair transplantation operation, patients can easily watch movies, read books and listen to music.

Painless hair transplantation is the application method preferred by many people today to achieve a better appearance. Individuals suffering from hair loss may experience lack of self-confidence in their social lives.

Many people may feel psychologically insecure due to hair loss problems. This situation is quite normal and is frequently seen among the public. Solving such problems is quite possible with today’s technologies.

It has been observed that the social situations and psychological positions of individuals who undergo painless hair transplantation with the latest developing medical techniques change and show positive effects. Such situations have been proven by scientific studies. However, cosmetic products may not completely solve this situation. At this point, you can regain your confidence and adapt to your social life by transplanting your hair.

There are various techniques for painless hair transplantation. Today, painless hair transplantation is one of the most preferred modern hair transplantation methods in the hair transplantation center in Istanbul. As for the hair transplantation method, during the painless hair transplantation process, hair follicles are collected from the patient’s neck using a low-speed micromotor. These micro motors have the feature of collecting hair without breaking it.

Is Shaving Necessary During Hair Transplantation?

If you have any questions, you should not hesitate to contact your doctor, they will be happy to answer any question you may be thinking of asking. For example, in some cases, it may be necessary to shave the hair before the painless hair transplantation surgery so that the surgeon and his team can easily see the graft and perform the surgery more easily in the operating area.

The classic DHI process is easier for men who generally wear their hair shorter. However, for people who do not want to shave their hair before the procedure, the process may take longer than usual. This is another piece of information you should obtain before surgery. Individuals may want to have a hair transplant without losing their hair. However, this slows down the operation of the application.

You may think that hair loss is common among men. But this is not real, it can happen to anyone. It is known that women applying to hair transplantation clinics due to hair loss has recently become more common. It is important for women to protect their hair.

The Importance of the Doctor in Painless Hair Transplantation

How to perform hair transplantation without shaving, without pain? To find the answer to the question, information can be obtained from experienced doctors of these clinics. It has been reported that genetically, hair loss is inevitable in some women. Therefore, hair transplantation surgery in women can be performed painlessly and without the need to shave with FUE (Follicular Unit extraction) technology. Thanks to FUE technology, hair transplantation can be performed without shaving for women who have recently experienced this type of hair loss problems. These applications are frequently preferred because they are painless and without shaving.

As with any surgical procedure, there may be some risks with unshaven hair transplantation. In fact, painless hair transplantation is a procedure that should be taken seriously. As a result, it is important that it is performed by a surgeon in a hospital setting to minimize any side effects that may occur, your health is at stake. To obtain the healthiest and most accurate results, it is very important that the procedure is performed by a trained and experienced surgeon.
