Hair TransplantNo shave hair transplant is a hair transplant method that is recently having increasing demand from those who would like to have a hair transplant. Normally, in hair transplant treatments, the persons’ hair is cut very short before the operation. Those who would like to wear their hair at 20-25 centimeters may not want their hair to be shaved. Moreover, some people who really want to have a hair transplant give it up just because of this reason. In the unshaven hair transplant method, there is no need for the patients’ hair to be cut down. Thus, the patients are not left without hair until it starts to grow, and this makes patients happy.
How is Unshaven Hair Transplant Operation Done?
No shave hair transplantation operation is performed the same way as the other hair transplant methods. FUE hair transplant technique is used in this method as well. No cuts are made to the scalp. The operation is carried out with special medical tools and since the patients are under the influence of local anesthetics, they do not feel any pain or aching during the process.
Firstly, a donor area in the patient’s body is determined in this hair transplant operation. This donor area can be the nape, beard, or chest area. Later, these grafts which are taken from the donor area are transplanted to the area where baldness is present. The biggest difference this hair transplant method has from others is that the patients’ heads are not completely shaved prior to the operation. Yet, sometimes this method can also be applied by shaving the patient’s hair in a few small regions that would be unnoticeable when looked at.
This method is applied in only hair transplants with 1000 to 1500 grafts and the hair strands that are cut do not offend the eye. In addition, if the patients wear their hair long, they can use their uncut hair to camouflage the areas that are cut. In this way, the donor area is camouflaged.
Following the hair transplant operation, the patients can go back to their homes and normal lives the same day. After the doctors give the necessary care advice to the patients, the patients are discharged. If the patients follow the doctor advice, they can speed up the healing process.
