Although there are various reasons contributing to hair loss, the most prominent cause is still androgenetic alopecia which is a hereditary condition associated with androgen sensitivity.

FUE Hair Transplant
FUE is one of the most effective and advanced surgical methods for permanent hair restoration. Avoiding linear scarring, it takes hair transplant surgery techniques much further and becomes one of the least invasive procedures. Being almost a scarless surgery, FUE’s worldwide popularity mostly stems from its promising results and relatively short healing process.

DHI Hair Transplant
Whether cosmetic preferences or health concerns, hair loss is a condition that millions of people struggling with, for various reasons or purposes. Fortunately, hair transplantation is a rapidly growing sector where technological and medical innovations are making the improvement of the transplantation process and overall final results much more evident and remarkable, day by day.

With the skills of certified surgeons and the latest medical equipment, the DHI procedure guarantees a natural-looking hairline, providing a density as much as possible.
Beard Transplant
In just the same way as scalp hair transplants, beard transplant procedures are also gaining more popularity day by day, considering the complementary effect of the beard as well as its ability to provide a more masculine and younger complexion.
Beard transplant is not an invasive operation, and this feature of the procedure eliminates the risk of scarring, setting patients’ minds at rest. While the operation is relatively short to be executed with minimal downtime, the recovery period also does not take much time from patients’ busy schedules…
Hair transplantation is considered a non invasive surgery. The local anesthetic used has prolonged analgesic action, so the patient will not feel any kind of pain. The operated area remains silent for several hours after surgery. In the days following the intervention you may experience a slight pain in the receiving and donating areas, which will disappear within a few days.
The duration of the intervention depends on the number of bulbs that will be transplanted. It usually takes 6 to 8 hours.
Hair transplantation can be men and women, from 18/20 years old. Since it is a little invasive, almost everyone can undergo hair transplantation, except in patients with serious health problems, such as immunosuppression.
Since it is a non-invasive operation performed in local anesthesia, the risks of such intervention are low. The only drawbacks that our patients experience are mostly in the post operative: itching, headaches and slight swelling, but they disappear within a few days.

This is not unusual as Istanbul is the main destination for hair and beard transplants. The pioneers of hair transplant Turkey do their best to provide people with hair loss self-confidence.
The brand-new Sapphire technique, which is a sub-technique of the classic FUE method has quite effective benefits. Sapphire is a tool made from crystals, it helps to speed up the healing process and minimizes trauma.
The different methods of hair replacement depend on the baldness and the type of look you want to achieve. In all cases, hair follicles are extracted from the donor area and transplanted on the receiving area.
Your surgeon will apply local anesthesia in both the donor and receiving areas. Occasionally, oral or intravenous sedation is added to the procedure. In rare cases, general anesthesia is recommended. The entire process takes between six to eight hours, depending on the targeted number of grafts.
DHI technique was developed based on FUE method (Follicular Unit Extraction). In both applications, the hair follicles, also known as grafts, are collected from the donor area with the help of a “micro motor”. These grafts are then kept in a special solution temporarily. In the next step, the extracted follicles are transplanted into the receiving area using the “Choi Implanter Pen.”
The percentage of hair transplant success in Turkey is higher than in European countries. Simultaneously, the process itself is at a much higher level and of better quality than in European countries. For all of these reasons, Turkey is likely a logical choice. But that’s not all.

The specialist will give you instructions on how to prepare and what to expect.
In both methods (FUE and DHI), the surgeon will shave the back of your head completely so the grafts can be extracted easily. In FUE technique the receiving area is also shaved in order to work better.
The experts might give oral or intravenous anesthesia to help you relax during the surgery.
The hair specialists use local anesthetic to get the scalp numb.

After the operation, you can go to your home or hotel to rest. The following day, you should pass by the doctor to have a quick check up.
FAQs
Hair transplantation operations have a success rate over 95%! The experts extract the hair follicles from the donor area. After the transplanted hair grows up, they do not fall out because the hair extracted from the back side of the head (donor area) are genetically resistant to the hormones that cause hair loss. They will have the same characteristics with the rest parts of the head. Hair color, thickness, course of growth, and the curvature of the hair remain the same.
No, transplanted hair does not fall out. Since the genetic code of the hair from the donor area shows higher resistance to the steroid hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), this hair does not get affected from androgenetic hair loss, the most common form of hair loss. However, during the healing process, the transplanted hair might fall out once, in fact, the roots stay firm under the scalp. This occurrence is known as shock loss. After a short period of time, new healthy hair will sprout.
The area that does not go through any negative effects of hair loss is the back side of the head and between the ears. The genetic feature of the extracted follicles ensure that the implanted hair does not fall out.
The number of grafts indicates the number of hair roots to be transplanted. As an average, every single graft consists of 2-3 hair roots. With 3,000 grafts transplanted, up to 10,000 new hairs would grow.
We perform two different hair transplant methods, DHI and FUE and there are different subs-techniques of performing these methods, such as Sapphire, and Gold.
There is no pain during or after the operation. Before the procedure, a pre-anesthesia in the form of pressure-spray called “dermojet” is applied to the scalp. This reduces the possible pain that one might have during the anesthesia that is applied with needles. The application of anesthesia with needle can take up to 5 minutes. Pain can still occur in pain-sensitive patients. Just in case, you will be provided with painkillers
As soon as the hair loss begins, a hair transplant can be performed. However, it is advisable to carry out a hair transplant only when the hair loss has stagnated. At EstePera, we avoid surgery on very young patients. Patients older than 18 years can undergo a hair transplant operation. The maximum age for the patients to be considered eligible for a hair transplant is 59 years.
Hair transplants are surgical procedures that only specially trained medical teams can perform. The operation is rather harmless and the medical team can carry them out on an outpatient basis. However, as with any other surgical procedure, there can be risks and complications depending on the patient’s conditions. Furthermore, long periods of sitting or lying down can lead to increased stress on the cardiovascular system. Hair transplants with the DHI and FUE methods are usually free of complications.

I've had a hair transplant not long ago with Estepera Hair Clinic of İstanbul-Turkey. Had the operation like in December 20, 2018. Its been a year now, so i've got my final result. It looks very good and natural, i feel myself like a new man, before the operation i wouldn't walk with my head like that without a hat, probably that could be the reason of my baldness but finally i got rid of it. Thanks to Estepera... The operation is not that painful, they applied anaesthesia on me before starting, so i was quite confortante, watching TV during the procedure..they make me feel home, i think that is part i miss the most.. Everything was awesome..i know there are other people that don't know which Clinic to pick,, but in my own experience do not recommend any other one except Estepera, you could say it's the most cosy Clinic you would find..
Had my transplant in Turkey's best Clinic. Before i start sharing my unforgetable experience here i would like to say that this is one of the writings in which i declare my joy willfully.. Nobody pushed me. As soon as you get at their clinic you have the feeling they are right beside immediately, your questions meet the answers right away, without any delay. My interpreter was at same time a guide to me..fulfilling my wishes without questioning. The operation i had consisted in 3 steps Extraction, Opening of the channels and Hair transplant, did it using FUE method. sometimes people keep saying there's pain while you are in the operating room, but that's not exactly how it is, i mean maybe because i had my operation in the right place, because i didn't feel pain during those 3 steps, which takes me to confess that Estepera is an excellent Hair Clinic in Turkey, because administering a local anaesthesia without you feeling pain requires professionalism, and that's the value that Estepera has..a big deal. I myself run a business in my city, i have employees, many friends and colleagues that i already shared this wonderful experience.. So considering all the positive sides of Estepera, i can frankly say they deserve a 5 star.. Hifive from Canada
Everyone's Clinic.. I am Deane, i would like to share with you guys about my experience on this Hair transplant .. Months ago my friend came up with the idea of having a hair operation...obviously he has been researching even before he told me about it and in the end decided to go with Estepera , but i didn't have any idea of what it was and how it's performed. He insisted on going together as he knew i was bald too, but not that bald, just the front side. My informations on the case being limited i told my fiend i wanted to see his result first then i could go. He arranged his trip and went for it, when i saw he was getting better result i asked where he had it done, said Estepera Hair Clinic Turkey, which is in the core of Istanbul. Anyway i got my consultation with the clinic, they told me i had 2 choices, FUE or DHI, but preferred them to tell me what's the best for me, apparently DHI was. Everything my friend had told me is exactly the same, he told from the hotel till the clinic itself, about how confortable is was, decent place and people, professional staff... Everything was just fantastic.. recommendable!
A magnificent experience... I had my hair procedure on the 14th… I have had my hairtransplant on the 14th November 2019. Came all the way from the US to Istanbul-Turkey. It's been an interesting trip, i came with a fiend . There was a van waiting for us out there. One of the things that's worth a compliment is the Estepera's interpreter himself. I would argue that was most patient person i've ever met, from the beginning till we met he explains to you everything word by word so you can get all of it . The place and staff are very clean with nice outfits. Doctor and all specialist presentable.. In terms of Hygiene they are just epic.. My operation was performed with this FUE with sapphire, i chose it because the healing period is shorter, and as i'm a worker i need to get back to work as soon as possible..do this was a right choice.. Good job Estepera team,.. I will recommend patients to you!!!
This Clinic, EsteperaHair, is well know in Turkey …,they know how to handle things in a very professional way, after i booked my flight tickets, a confirmation letter was sent to my email..as i had taken days off, so this was a relief. I landed in Istanbul like 12pm, the interpreter of the clinic gave me a call by the moment i stepped out of the plane and passed the orientation on what direction i had to go.. He called the driver to pick up. Anyway, we go at hotel, in though i thought i would have trouble as i didn't know their language by apparently they did speak English, and that was one of the nice parts of the hotel. Smiling staff.. Anything i needed to get help for, there was my interpreter giving a hand.. I felt honored as Estepera's patient.. My other concern was related to the procedure itself, i kept asking questions myself, because i'm very sensitive to the pain, i can say that was my only weakness but nevertheless the medical team administered the anaesthesia part so very carefully that i didn't feel much thing as i though i would.. That's called professionalism, perfection of a company like Estepera, 100% recommended!
