Hair transplantation typically comprises four main stages:
1. **Preparation for Hair Transplantation:**
– Collection of hair and disinfection of the transplant area.
– Application of anesthesia to ensure the patient’s comfort throughout the procedure. The success of the operation often hinges on a well-executed preparation stage.
2. **Collection of Hair Roots:**
– In Sapphire FUE, hair follicles are carefully collected individually from the donor area.
– Utilization of micro-tips with diameters ranging from 0.6 to 0.7 to 0.8 mm, employing a precise micro motor.
3. **Channel Opening:**
– Creation of small (micro) channels to expedite the healing process.
– The opening of these channels significantly influences the appearance of the hair, dictating the angle, direction, and density.
– Acknowledged as the most critical stage, it directly impacts the overall success of the hair transplant operation.
4. **Transplantation of Hair Roots:**
– Methodical placement of collected hair roots into the previously prepared channels.
– The use of small channels, opened with sharp, smooth, and durable sapphire tips ranging from 1.0 to 1.3 to 1.5 mm, mirroring the size of the hair follicle.
– This approach allows for an increased number of channels, enabling a closer placement of hair follicles while adhering to the natural angle of 40-45 degrees for a more authentic result.
– The incorporation of sapphire tips minimizes the risk of creating an unnatural appearance, often referred to as “grass man.”
In addition to these stages, the text underscores the significance of prioritizing patient comfort during the process:
– **Painless, Needle-Free Hair Transplantation:**
– Administration of local anesthesia at the onset of the operation, prior to hair follicle extraction.
– Utilization of advanced anesthesia instruments for a needle-free and painless hair transplant experience.
– Special instruments employing a pressurized spray system to deliver anesthetic agents under the skin, covering a broader area compared to traditional needle-based local anesthesia.
– This needle-free method proves particularly advantageous for individuals with needle phobia or reservations about undergoing a hair transplant procedure.
The doctor also transplants the hair follicles at 40-45 degree angles, another point is to make it in accordance with the direction of the person’s previous hair.
After determining the angle and direction of the hair follicles placed in the Choi needle, sowing is done with the pushing feature of the needle; In the operation, between 2 and 6 Choi pencils and 15-16 Choi tips are used. The tips of the pencils can be of different sizes, this is determined by the person’s hair root and thickness structure. This method was applied for the first time in Kyungpook University in Korea. According to the results of the research, it was concluded that not every patient is suitable for hair transplantation with the Choi pen.
It has been shown that fine-stranded and crimped hair follicles are placed at the implanter tip and damaged during transplantation. In subsequent studies, implanter pen was produced not only for people with thick hair specific to Asians, but also for more general hair types. The implanter pen used today is between 0.64 mm and 1.0 mm.
At the point reached today, in the light of scientific and technological developments, operations are performed safely with Choi tips.
Therefore, effective, predictable, natural-looking hair is considered in hair transplantation with Choi tips in specialized clinics. Persons suitable for DHI hair transplantation are determined after a comprehensive examination. For this reason, people who decide to have hair transplantation should definitely find out whether they are suitable for hair transplantation as an examination by an experienced doctor.
When determining whether you are suitable for DHI hair transplantation, your current scale is determined first. In particular, your hair root depth and hair thickness will determine whether hair transplantation can be performed with the DHI method. In addition, your general health status must be favorable and you must be over the age of 18.
