Hair Transplant for Women

At Civas&Akpınar Hair Transplant Clinic in Turkey, hair restoration procedures for women are adapted to address the needs of female patients affected by hair loss.

Hair loss in women is usually characterized by diffused thinning instead of complete baldness, which is often seen in men. This requires a tailored approach, the right technique, and precision to get successful, natural-looking results.

At Civas&Akpınar, our expert dermatologists guarantee that every woman receives the highest standard of care to restore their natural beauty.

We offer various techniques, such as Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Direct Hair Implantation (DHI), tailored to your needs, ensuring minimal scarring and aesthetically pleasing results.

What Causes Hair Loss in Women?

Hair loss is not limited to men; many women also face the emotional and aesthetic challenges that come with hair thinning. However, while both men and women suffer from hair loss, women often experience it differently.

Hair loss in women presents by thinning of hair in the frontal and on the crown areas while the hairline remains intact. This is also known as diffused thinning.

The main causes of hair loss in women include hormonal imbalances, genetics, stress, poor diet, medications, etc. Harsh hair treatments and tight hairstyles can also contribute to hair thinning in women.

Female Pattern Hair Loss

Female Pattern Hair Loss, also known as Female Pattern Baldness or Androgenetic Alopecia in women, is the most common type of hair loss affecting women. It can be identified by diffused thinning of hair across the scalp.

Unlike male pattern hair loss, female pattern hair loss rarely leads to complete baldness in women. However, it does affect the volume and density of hair, leading women to seek medical treatments to restore their hair.

Genetics and hormonal fluctuations, particularly an increase in androgens (male hormones), play a significant role in causing this condition. Women often begin to see symptoms such as noticeable thinning at the crown, a decrease in hair volume, and a widening part.

Other Causes of Hair Loss in Women

Apart from female pattern hair loss, various factors can contribute to hair loss in women:

  • Hormonal changes during pregnancy, menopause, and thyroid disorders can lead to hair shedding.
  • Temporary hair loss (Telogen Effluvium) can be triggered by emotional or physical stress.
  • Nutritional deficiencies in nutrients such as iron, zinc, vitamin D, protein, etc. can weaken hair follicles.
  • Medical conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), scalp infections, and autoimmune disorders such as alopecia areata can cause shedding and, in some cases, permanent hair loss.
  • Harsh hair treatments, such as the use of chemicals, dyes, and heat-styling tools, can cause hair breakage.
  • Tight hairstyles such as ponytails or braids could also lead to traction alopecia in women.

Hair Transplant for Women in Turkey

Turkey has become a popular destination for affordable hair transplants for women. Turkish hair transplant surgeons, renowned for their skills and expertise, provide women from all over the globe with solutions tailored to their needs at competitive prices.

While hair transplants in Turkey are an attractive option for women, it is vital to choose the right clinic and surgeon. Hair transplantation remains a surgical procedure necessitating the intervention of a doctor well-versed in the intricacies that come with female hair restoration.

Civas&Akpınar Hair Transplant Clinic, renowned in Turkey for its expert dermatologists, offers hair loss solutions personalized to each female patient’s needs, making it the best choice for women seeking affordable hair transplantation.

Can Women Undergo Hair Transplants?

Just like men, women can undergo hair transplant procedures with natural-looking results. Female hair transplants are specifically designed to address diffuse thinning rather than bald spots.

However, not all types of female hair loss are suitable for hair transplantation. Women experiencing genetic hair loss, traction alopecia, or receding hairline make great candidates for female hair transplant procedures.

Other hair loss conditions require medical treatment instead of surgical treatment. A consultation with a dermatologist is essential to diagnose your type of hair loss and ensure the treatment plan is suitable for your specific needs and goals.

The Ideal Candidate For Hair Transplant For Women

The ideal female candidate for hair transplant is:

  • Suffering from female pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia in women) or traction alopecia.
  • Has hair loss due to trauma or surgery.
  • Has not responded well to other hair loss treatments.
  • Has sufficient donor area with healthy hair follicles.
  • Has a stable hair loss pattern to predict future hair loss and long-term hair transplant results.

How Does Hair Transplant For Women Work?

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is the gold standard of hair restoration for women. Hair follicles are extracted individually from the safe donor area, located at the back of the head, and are implanted individually into the thinning areas.

One major difference from hair transplants for men is that women usually undergo partial shaving rather than full shaving of the donor area.

What are the Steps of Hair Transplant For Women?

Hair transplant procedure for female patients consists of various steps, which will be detailed in the comprehensive guide below.

Step-by-Step Guide to Hair Transplantation For Women

Step 1: Initial consultation

Before undergoing a hair transplant procedure, female patients need to see a dermatologist or hair transplant specialist who will evaluate their hair loss pattern and determine the right course of action.

Step 2: Hairline Design

At Civas&Akpınar Hair Transplant Clinic, our doctors take special care to design a feminine hairline to suit the needs of the patient and complement their facial features.

Step 3: Partial Shaving

For female patients, partial shaving of the donor area is preferred over full shaving as it helps maintain a natural appearance during the healing process.

Step 4: Anesthesia Administration

Local anesthesia is used to ensure a smooth and pain-free procedure for our female patients. A mild sedative is also provided to help them relax.

Step 5: Channel Opening/Incisions

The recipient area is prepped by making tiny incisions. Once harvested, the grafts will be placed in the incisions using forceps. If DHI hair transplant method is being used, there is no need to open channels in the recipient area.

Step 6: Graft harvesting/ Extraction

Using FUE method, hair follicles are extracted from the safe donor area. They will be counted and sorted before being placed in a special organ-holding solution until it is time for implantation.

Step 7: Implantation

Our nurse technicians carefully place the harvested grafts into the recipient area individually, ensuring optimal density and the desired hairline.

The Importance of Hairline Design in Hair Transplant for Women

The hairline, which frames the face of the patient, requires special attention to detail, making hairline design a crucial part of hair transplantation for women.

Female hairlines are naturally different from male hairlines. While male hairlines are usually more angular, straight and have a more defined receding pattern, female hairlines are usually softer, rounder, and more subtle.

Women also experience diffuse thinning as opposed to distinct bald patches seen in hair loss in men.

These factors affect hair restoration for women, requiring a more strategic approach to hairline design. It is important to work with a hair transplant surgeon that understands these variations.

At Civas&Akpınar, our expert dermatologists take our female patients’ facial features, age, and existing hair patterns into consideration to create a new hairline that will beautifully frame their face.

Is Hair Transplant an Effective Solution for Hair Loss in Women?

Female hair transplant can be a viable solution for women suffering from hair loss, especially those with localized thinning, androgenetic alopecia, or traction alopecia.

Women suffering from certain types of scarring alopecia, such as Lichen Planopilaris, can also benefit from improved hair density and overall appearance via hair transplantation, given their condition has stabilized.

Is Hair Transplant for Women a Permanent Solution?

In general, Hair transplantation for women is considered a permanent solution for hair loss.  The hair follicles harvested from the safe donor area are immune to hair loss, and once they are implanted in the recipient area, they will continue to grow for a lifetime.

Challenges of Hair Transplant for Women: What You Need to Know

Hair transplants for women present certain challenges that require attention and consideration to obtain the best possible results.

The main challenge is the difference in hair loss patterns experienced by female patients, such as diffuse thinning or specific areas of loss. In certain cases, and in the hands of an inexperienced technician, it can be difficult to achieve uniform and natural-looking results.

Moreover, women tend to have finer hair and more delicate, tender scalps. This can complicate the hair transplantation process and affect the final results. 

Another challenge faced during female hair transplants is that women usually have less dense donor areas compared to men. This can potentially limit the availability of donor hair.

Hormonal changes, such as those caused by pregnancy or menopause, can also influence hair growth and hair transplant results.

Consulting one of the best hair transplant specialists can help address these challenges and tailor the treatment plan according to your needs and expectations, ensuring the best possible outcome.

Cost of Hair Transplant for Women in Turkey

Hair transplants for women in Turkey are usually more affordable than in Western countries. The cost of female hair transplants in Turkey ranges from €1.50 to €3.00 per graft, depending on the doctor’s expertise and the specific technique and the number of grafts.
