Once upon a time, if you lost your hair you just had to live with it, find a great wig, wear a quirky scarf, or embrace an endless array of hats. These days, not so much. If you find yourself going bald, or losing patches of hair, it’s now possible to do something about it. Which is great news if you’re just not down with being hairless. Yes, we’re talking hair transplants. But what’s the hair transplant success rate, and is a hair transplant always successful? How Successful are Hair Transplants?Hair transplants are hugely popular – and that doesn’t look like it’s going to change anytime soon. According to this report, in 2021, over 703,000 hair transplant procedures were carried out worldwide. Over the years, as hair transplant technology has improved, the success rate of hair transplants has improved too – and this is probably the main reason why hair transplants continue to soar in popularity. Murat Before and After FUE hair transplant resultsMurat Before and After FUE hair transplant resultsSuccessful hair transplants depend on how many of your transplanted hair grafts survive. For a graft to be successful, it needs to take root and produce hair growth once surgery has been completed. You might hope that every one of the hair grafts that are transplanted will take root and grow new hair, but this would be extraordinary. A highly successful hair transplant would be when around 90% of your hair grafts take root and grow new hair. However, a hair transplant can also be considered a success if this 90% benchmark isn’t met. That’s because, you can still enjoy dramatic hair growth even when fewer hair grafts take root. Hair Transplant Success: A Holistic ApproachAt Este, we’re proud to have clients with many happy hair transplant success stories. This is down to our unique approach to hair transplants. Unlike other clinics, we don’t just take a client on and book them straight in for their hair transplant procedure. In order to ensure high chances of hair transplant success, we carry out pre-treatment care and aftercare techniques that ensure our procedures are successful. ‍ In this video, Este’s CEO Sam Cinkir explains why the Este process is so different from other hair transplant clinics. With Este, you’ll enjoy pre-treatments such as laser hair regrowth therapy and mesotherapy that work to boost your blood circulation to the area that’s to be treated. This helps – Benefit the hair growth phasePromote thicker hair growthEnsure blood reaches the hair follicles to nourish themBoost nutrients and oxygenation to hair folliclesEnsure hair has a good life spanThis intensive approach that ensures the existing hair and scalp is treated before and after the procedure is one of the main reasons why we continue to have such a high success rate of hair transplant in Turkey. How do I know if my Hair Transplant is Successful?Having a hair transplant can be a nerve-wracking experience, and one reason why is that it can be quite disconcerting to see all of your hair grafts fall out between weeks one and five. However, this is absolutely normal, and needs to happen in order for new hair to grow. It takes a while for new hair to grow, but at around the six-month mark you should be able to see your new hair growth, and by 12-18 months post treatment, you should be enjoying your full results. It can feel like an agonisingly long time to wait, but when you choose Este, it will be worth it! FUE Hair Transplant Success RateFUE hair transplants have one of the highest success rates at around 95% – 100%. This number works on the basis that a FUE hair transplant is considered successful when anything upwards of 60-70% of grafts survive. This is the same for the hair transplant crown area success rate as when 60-70% of grafts survive, the client will still achieve good hair growth and coverage. What about Female Hair Transplant Success Rate?When we talk of hair transplants, we often immediately think of them in relation to men, but women are able to have this treatment too. However, it is only a select few who will be suitable for a female hair transplant treatment and this is down to the type of hair loss they’re experiencing. According to this article, only around 2-5% of women with hair loss will be suitable for treatment. They are women with hair loss due to – Non-hormonal mechanical or traction alopeciaSurgery which has left hair loss at the incision areasFemale pattern baldness such as hairline recession and thinning at the crownTrauma such as burning, or scarringAlopecia marginalis Are Hair Transplants Successful?Hair transplant success rates depend on many factors – some to do with the client, some with the surgeon, some with the type of hair transplant carried out. At Este, we’re proud to achieve brilliant hair transplant success rates again and again, and it’s one of the reasons why we were voted Turkey’s #1 Hair Transplant Clinic of 2021, and were winners of the Most Trusted Multi-Practice Clinic 2022 at the LuxLife awards.

There are valid reasons why men and women opt for hair grafts to fill in and lower a hairline. They can include forehead size concerns, gender affirmation, and wanting to create better face symmetry. If you are self-conscious about your wide forehead or high hairline, then lowering your hairline with a hair transplant will reduce the area of your forehead, making it a less dominant feature. ‍Why Is My Forehead So Big?Concerns about the size of your forehead may be subjective, and are often linked to beauty trends and aesthetic standards. In some cultures a wide and tall forehead is considered attractive, denoting wisdom and life experience, but not everyone loves their prominent forehead or high hairline. A big forehead might be the result of a receding hairline, low hair density, or traction alopecia. ‍How To Reduce Forehead SizeHere are a several ways you can adjust the look of your forehead, or reduce a large forehead area: Try contouring makeup techniques to create the illusion of a smaller foreheadHave a hairstyle that includes a longer fringeReshape your eyebrows so they appear more dominantLook into forehead reduction surgeryHave a hair transplant to add hair grafts to your hairline and upper forehead‍Hair transplant surgery is an effective long-term solution if you want a lower hairline. ‍Can Hair Transplant Lower Hairline?Yes, a surgical hair transplant can lower a hairline by inserting hair grafts below the natural hairline, creating a new lower hairline. Este has performed many successful receding hairline transplants for women and men at our medical clinic in Turkey.

Find out why Este Medical is the best at hair transplants! ‍How Is Hairline Lowering Surgery Done?If you are opting for a hair transplant procedure to lower your hairline, then during your surgery hair follicles or hair grafts will be taken from the back of your head (the donor area) and moved by hand and inserted into your scalp along your new hairline area (the treatment area). Another way to describe a hair transplant is hair grafting. For instance, healthy hair follicles are harvested from a part of the scalp with an abundance of hair (usually the back or sides), and are then ‘grafted’ manually into the treatment area of the scalp. ‍How Many Grafts To Lower Hairline? How many hair grafts you need to lower your hairline will depend on how far you are lowering it. Much depends on the thickness of your hair, the coverage needed, and the area to be treated when it comes to cost. The best way to determine how many hair grafts you will need to reduce your forehead is to have a hair transplant consultation at an Este Medical clinic near you. ‍Este Medical in Turkey offers a few types of hair transplants for forehead reduction: FUE and DHI hair transplants, as well as unshaven and long hair transplants. Arrange a consultation through our website to find out which of these transplant treatments is best suited to you. 77-Year-Old Woman’s Hair Transplant Results!‍How Does Forehead Reduction Surgery Work?‍Can I get my hairline lowered with plastic surgery? Yes, with forehead reduction surgery, also known as hairline lowering surgery (foreheadplasty): a cosmetic procedure that can reduce the size of the forehead. The surgery involves making an incision along the hairline, removing a portion of the forehead skin, and pulling the hairline forward to decrease the amount of visible forehead. ‍Does forehead reduction surgery hurt? The surgery is usually performed under anaesthesia, so patients don’t feel pain during the procedure. However, after the anaesthesia wears off, some discomfort, soreness, and swelling can be expected around the surgical site. Scarring may take place with foreheadplasty. After this type of plastic surgery hair grafts may be required to even out the hairline and cover any scars where hair may have been lost during the surgical procedure.

Are you considering having a hair transplant? If so, your head is probably full of questions like, ‘how many hair grafts do I need?’, or, ‘how many grafts can be taken from donor area?’ What is a Hair Transplant?A hair transplant is when healthy hair follicles are taken from one part of the body and transplanted into an area that is bald or balding. There are three options available to you: FUE Hair Transplant in TurkeyHair Transplant DHILaser Hair Regrowth TreatmentAt Este, we offer high quality, expert hair transplants at our sister clinic in Turkey. We are the only clinic in the world to offer a holistic approach to hair transplants, and by that we mean we look at the whole picture. Before transplanting, we make sure the area that is to receive the hair grafts is healthy and ready, and we do this by treating it with red light therapy to boost blood circulation and hair health. How Many Grafts Do I Need?When it comes to your hair transplant, and how many grafts will I need, it’s important to remember that everyone is different. If you’re wondering how many FUE grafts for crown, or you’d like to know how many grafts are needed for a full head, it depends on a few factors: How large the area to be treated isHow thick you want the hair to beHow bald the area already is If you’re male and want to know what stage of hair loss you’re at, you can use the Norwood Scale to determine your level of hair loss. The Este Medical hair transplant for men can help whatever stage you’re at. How Many Grafts does the Average Person Have?In general, if you’re wondering, how many grafts do I need for FUE, the average hair transplant consists of 4000 grafts. This is usually suitable to cover the front, middle and crown (or vertex) with a decent density of hair. How Many Hairs is 4000 Grafts?People considering hair transplants often wonder how many hairs per graft there are. If you’re looking at having a transplant where 4000 grafts will be taken from your donor site, you’ll be pleased to hear that this should yield around 7200 – 8800 hairs. Josh had 4345 grafts transplanted, which roughly equates to 10,863 hairs: ‍ How Many Hair Grafts for Receding Hairline?If you’re fed up of your receding hairline and want to regain a fuller head of hair, a hair transplant makes a wise move. With regards to how many grafts for hairline, you can expect to need anything from around 800 hair grafts to 1500. This will of course be discussed with you prior to your treatment, and it all depends on the thickness of hair, coverage needed, and area to be treated. How Many Grafts for Beard Transplant?Is your beard patchy? Has it never grown as full as you’d like it to? Thanks to hair transplant technology, you can now achieve a full beard using hair taken from another area of your body. A beard hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure carried out at our clinic in Turkey. Again, how many grafts you’ll need depends on whether you’re looking for a full beard, a moustache, a little designer stubble, or a goatee. In general, for a full beard, you’ll be looking at needing around 2500 – 3000 grafts. Hair Transplant for WomenHair transplant treatment is often thought of as a mainly male treatment, however it is suitable for women, too. Hair transplant for women can help address hair loss due to factors to do with hormone changes, medication, stress, depression, trauma caused by surgery, dieting, or even just because of tension caused by specific hairstyles. What Results Can I Expect?The hair transplant process takes time. To see the best results, you’ll need to sit tight and wait. With patience, and the right aftercare, you should see results kicking in at around six to nine months post treatment. Check out this article here where you’ll see Chris’s results at 7 months after hair transplant. When you choose Este for your hair transplant you can be assured that you’ll receive the very best in hair transplant technology. We work with you to achieve the best results possible by delivering exceptional pre-and-post treatment care, alongside cutting-edge hair transplant technology.

The subject of hair transplants poses all sorts of interesting questions, and one we hear quite regularly at Este is, ‘can you use other people’s hair for transplant?’ Can Anyone get a Hair Transplant?If you’re considering a hair transplant and you’re wondering if you’re a suitable candidate, the main point to remember is that hair transplants are only suitable for people who are experiencing permanent hair loss. This hair loss is often hereditary, so if there’s a pattern of your older family members going through hair loss, and now you’re experiencing the same thing, then you will likely be a suitable candidate. If, however, you’re suffering from hair loss due to alopecia areata, or diffuse hair loss, then it’s unlikely that a hair transplant will work for you. This is because even after the hair transplant, it’s likely that your immune system will attack your newly transplanted hair and the whole process will have failed. Where does Hair for Hair Transplants come from?Hair for hair transplants always has to come from your own body. You can’t have a hair transplant with other people’s hair but, can you transplant hair from other parts of the body? Yes, you can. In order for a hair transplant to work, the hair used must be taken from – Your own bodyAn area of your scalp with thicker hair growthThe back of the neckBeardOr as a hair transplant from other parts of the bodySo, if you’ve lost a considerable amount of hair from your head, and you want to know, ‘can you get a hair transplant if you are bald?’ then you’ll be pleased to hear that, yes, you can. Why can’t you have a Hair Transplant using Other People’s Hair?We are often asked, ‘can you transplant other people’s hair?’ and the answer is: No. But why is this? It’s because our bodies are clever and can’t be fooled. If you tried to have a hair transplant from other donor, your immune system would immediately recognise an outsider. Your immune system would be alerted to this intruder and wouldn’t give this new hair a chance to grow. The result would be that the newly transplanted hair would simply fall out and the hair follicles wouldn’t have had time to grow. What about Synthetic Hair Transplants?Synthetic hair follicles are a relatively new player on the scene in the world of hair transplants. This is something that Este doesn’t do, and that’s largely down to the temporary nature of this procedure. We achieve fantastic results with our proven methods of hair transplant and have even been named as the best hair transplant clinic in Turkey. Synthetic hair follicles use artificial strands of hair to give the illusion of natural hair. They are available in a variety of hair colours. Unlike real hair transplants, synthetic hair follicles will not grow. However, they do shed, and you can expect to lose around 10% of your synthetic hair each year. On average, your synthetic hair transplant is expected to last for approximately 7 – 8 years. During that time you may need top-ups. How do Hair Transplants Work?At Este, we approach hair transplants in a holistic and revolutionary way, because we want to make sure you get the best results achievable. Your hair transplant experience starts with our unmatched pre-treatment care where we make sure your scalp is absolutely ready to receive its hair transplant. This may entail pre-treatment therapy such as – Laser hair regrowth therapyMesotherapy These treatments help ensure your scalp is in the best possible state to receive your transplanted hair follicles. These pre-treatment therapies take place at an Este clinic in the UK, whereas your actual hair transplant will happen at our state-of-the-art sister clinic in Istanbul, Turkey. Here, our highly-skilled surgeons will use either the FUE or DHI transplant technique. For the best FUE results we use the Sapphire hair transplant method. This method of hair transplant means less bleeding, fewer scars, less pain, more natural visible results, and a lower infection risk. The DHI process, on the other hand, uses the choi pen which creates incisions at the same time as implanting the hair follicle. It can be a faster process and is less invasive than more traditional methods. The number of hair grafts you need for both of these treatment methods will depend on the severity of your hair loss and the look you want to achieve. Does Transplanted Hair Grow?Possibly the most worrying part of getting your head around the process of hair transplants is to find out that the hair that’s been transplanted doesn’t grow and will actually fall out a few weeks after the treatment. But don’t worry! This is entirely normal. Once your body has recovered from the hair transplant treatment, new hairs will begin to grow where you’ve had the transplant. In order to get the best results, and once you’ve returned to the UK after your procedure, you will have aftercare treatment at your nearest Este clinic. We will also make sure you’re given the best aftercare advice available in order to ensure successful hair growth. A New YouIf hair loss is getting you down and you’d like to do something about it, you can! Book in for your consultation with Este and see how we can help transform your hair and boost your self-confidence at the same time. We look forward to meeting you. Last Updated: January 12, 2023

When I reached the age of sixty, my son mentioned my hair was getting thin up top, so I decided to do something about it. I did my research about UK hair clinics on the internet, and Este Medical seemed a very good company from what I saw, so I decided to book a hair loss appointment.My consultation provided good information about hair transplantation: what it involves, how long it takes, how much it costs. The consultation felt very comfortable, and helped me understand what I was getting into,” reveals Este client Graham.Are you experiencing hair thinning, a high forehead, or a receding hairline?‍Graham Takes You On His Hair Loss Transformation — From the UK to Turkey!The first stage of Graham’s hair transplant preparation was in the UK. For the most optimal hair transplant outcome it was important to stabilise and strengthen Graham’s scalp health and hair follicles. For Graham that meant coming to Este Birmingham several times before travelling to Este in Turkey. In Graham’s case, he was instructed to change his hair washing routine, and start laser light hair therapy, PRP hair growth injections and derma rolling the scalp, along with boosting vitamins essential for good hair growth. This customised preparation for his Turkey hair transplant in Istanbul took about 3 months. For stage two in Turkey, Graham decided to go with his wife and turn it into a bit of a holiday. And he highly recommends it! Here’s what he says about the experience: “Este Medical Turkey was great! They picked us up from the airport, took us to the hotel. Este sorted out all our private taxi transfers, anything that was needed,” says Graham.Once the hair transplant was done, Graham returned to the UK for his hair transplant aftercare at Este in Birmingham. “I think postoperative care after hair transplantation is one of the most important things, and why Este Medical stands out so well. I followed all my Este aftercare to the letter, the minoxidil, the in-clinic and at-home derma rolling, the laser hair regrowth treatments, and I started using a new more gentle anti-hair loss shampoo,” reveals Graham.Send us a message to schedule a hair growth consultation about your hair loss concerns, whether that’s thinning hair, alopecia, or male pattern baldness. Este Medical has the experience and success rate you are looking for. ‍Graham’s 8 Month Report of His Este Hair Transplant Outcome!“I am absolutely delighted with my hair transplant and aftercare, my hair is getting longer, I’ve started growing it out a bit, and I’ve had my hair cut twice already! My hair feels more luxurious and thicker. I’ve had loads of people I know tell me that my hair looks like it did when I was 45 years old, which is really nice to hear.Having a hair transplant is actually incredibly easy, and with Este you are looked after at every stage. Everything with Este Medical is very professional and well set-up, and the hair experts at Este understand the emotional side of making the decision to have a hair transplant.
