Skull skin and hair characteristics of people differ from each other. Therefore, after the services received after hair transplantation, the care to be made to the hair of the person should be applied completely when the care is given by the specialist doctor.

In general, when the care after hair transplantation is examined, people should not wash their hair for a certain period of time after hair transplantation.

During hair transplantation, the most suitable technique for the person to be transplanted is determined during the examination. Among the techniques used, the best methods for people are the procedures performed with local anesthesia. Local anesthesia prevents the formation of pain sensation during and after surgery. After local anesthesia, hair transplantation is performed with the help of a micro motor. Micro motors used during hair transplantation vary. These variations differ with Sapphire Technique and DHI Technique. Techniques applied in accordance with the head structure of the person are performed by Hair Transplantation Specialist Şefika May in our Clinic in Istanbul.

People who have a hair transplant think that their hair will grow out immediately. However, hair regrowth is a process that requires patience and effort. It is observed that the number of hair follicles increases on the head after hair transplantation surgery. It takes time for these hairs to mature and strengthen with the nutrients taken. In addition, since the hair follicles are exposed, the damage it will take slows down the hair regrowth process. Protecting and maintaining the hair for a long time will show that the hair grows observably after a few months. After hair transplantation, doing what is recommended by Şefika May facilitates hair growth. After the necessary checks are made, the use of the shampoo recommended for the hair is considered necessary within the scope of these procedures. Hair growth takes place in a healthy way in hair follicles that are kept clean with the right shampoo and applications.
