Restore Your Confidence with Precision Hair Restoration
Experience advanced, natural, and minimally invasive hair restoration through the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) technique at International Plus, Turkey’s leading hair transplant center in Istanbul. Known worldwide for excellence in hair restoration, our clinic combines cutting-edge Sapphire Micro-FUE technology with expert surgical artistry to deliver permanent, natural-looking results for men and women facing hair loss.
❓What Is the FUE Hair Transplant Technique?
The FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) technique is a modern, minimally invasive hair transplant method where individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area, usually the back of the scalp and transplanted into thinning or bald regions.
Each follicular unit, or graft, typically contains 2–3 hairs. This method ensures natural hairline design and precise graft placement with minimal scarring and downtime.
At International Plus, we use Sapphire Micro-FUE, a refinement of the classic FUE technique. Using sapphire-tipped blades instead of steel, surgeons create finer incisions, leading to faster healing, denser implantation, and better graft survival rates.
Key Benefits:
- Permanent results after one session
- Virtually scar-free and pain-free recovery
- Natural-looking, dense hair growth
- Suitable for men and women
🩺 Types of FUE Hair Transplant Techniques
✔️ Standard FUE (Micromotor FUE): Hair follicles are extracted with a micro-motor device and implanted into small incisions made in the recipient area. Ideal for large bald areas with strong donor density.
✔️ Sapphire FUE: Uses sapphire blades to open channels more precisely and safely. Enhances graft survival, reduces scarring, and offers faster healing.
✔️ Unshaven FUE (U-FUE): Perfect for patients who prefer to maintain existing hairstyles during the procedure. This technique extracts grafts without shaving the entire donor area.
✔️ Hybrid FUE + DHI: Combines the accuracy of FUE extraction with DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) for maximum density and refined hairline design.
🩺 Who Is a Good Candidate?
✔️ Men and women experiencing genetic, age-related, or stress-induced hair loss.
✔️ Individuals with sufficient donor hair at the back or sides of the head.
✔️ Those with baldness limited to specific areas (Norwood 2–6).
✔️ Patients who desire minimal downtime and no visible linear scar.
✔️ People in overall good health with realistic expectations about results.
Our specialists evaluate your hair density, pattern, and scalp health during consultation to design a fully customized transplant plan.
🩺 Consultation & Preparation
Before undergoing an FUE hair transplant in Istanbul, every patient receives a detailed consultation and pre-operative evaluation:
✔️ Hair analysis to assess graft quality and density.
✔️ Review of medical history and medications.
✔️ Patients are advised to avoid alcohol, smoking, and blood thinners at least 7 days before surgery.
✔️ The scalp and donor area are prepared, and anesthesia plan discussed.
This preparation ensures precision, comfort, and long-term graft survival.
🩺 Recovery & Aftercare
The recovery process after FUE hair transplant is smooth and predictable:
✔️ Minor redness and swelling may occur for 3–5 days.
✔️ Tiny scabs form around transplanted follicles but heal quickly.
✔️ Patients should avoid heavy exercise, swimming, and direct sun for 10–14 days.
✔️ A mild shampoo and aftercare lotion are provided for scalp cleansing.
✔️ Shedding of transplanted hair occurs naturally within 2–3 weeks—new growth starts by month 3–4.
✔️ Full, natural-looking results appear between 9–12 months.
Our medical team provides continuous support, including follow-up checks and personalized recovery guidance.
