General Information
Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure that involves transferring hair follicles from a donor area to a recipient area, typically to restore hair growth in areas affected by hair loss or thinning.
At Hair Clinic IST, we offer both Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) techniques, allowing us to tailor the treatment to each patient's specific needs and preferences.
During the procedure, local anesthesia is administered to ensure a pain-free experience. Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the surgery, and any post-operative discomfort can be managed with prescribed medications.
