WHO CAN AND WHO CANNOT UNDERGO HAIR TRANSPLANTATION

Hair transplantation is a well-known solution for addressing hair loss and restoring a healthy hair appearance. However, not every individual is a suitable candidate for this procedure. At Alturk Hair Clinic, we have defined specific criteria to identify which patients can benefit most from this treatment and who should consider other alternatives. Here, we describe the criteria for determining suitable candidates for hair transplantation and situations where this procedure is not advisable.

Suitable Candidates for Hair Transplantation
1. Completion of Hair Loss Phase: Individuals who have reached an age or completed the phase of hair loss are ideal candidates for transplantation. This means that the hair loss is no longer in an active and rapid phase, which allows our experts to better determine the areas that need planting.
2. Adequate Donor Area: The success of a transplant depends heavily on the quantity and quality of hair in the donor area. Individuals with a sufficient amount of hair at the back of the head are more likely to achieve successful outcomes.
3. Good Health Condition: Patients who are in good overall health generally experience a better and faster healing process. Certain medical conditions may hinder healing and affect the success of the transplant.

Candidates Who Are Not Suitable for Hair Transplantation
1. Unstable Hair Loss: Individuals who continue to experience rapid and unpredictable hair loss, such as in cases of Alopecia Areata and Alopecia Totalis, may not be suitable candidates, as the results of the transplant may not be stable.

2. Lack of a Donor Area: If the donor areas do not provide enough quality hair for transplantation, the procedure may not be possible or may not yield the desired results.

3. Chronic Diseases That Impede Healing: Individuals with chronic diseases that affect healing, such as uncontrolled diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, or autoimmune disorders, should consider the risks and consult thoroughly with their doctor before deciding on a transplant.

Conclusion
Identifying the right candidates for hair transplantation is essential to ensure that patients receive the most benefit from this treatment. At Alturk Hair Clinic, we are committed to providing detailed and evidence-based advice to help patients make the best decision for their health and appearance. An initial consultation and thorough evaluation are key steps to determining if you are a suitable candidate for this procedure.
