Stem cell hair transplants are now a part of a successful hair restoration treatment plan, and Este Medical in Turkey is leading the way in combining this therapy with advanced hair transplant techniques.

Hair transplants are already known for their high success rates — but recent advances in regenerative medicine are raising the bar even higher. One of the most exciting developments? Stem cell hair transplants.  

By incorporating stem cells into the hair transplant process, hair loss clinics like Este Turkey can now boost scalp health and enhance the vitality of hair follicles, helping clients achieve better transplant results. It’s an innovative approach that supports better hair growth outcomes and long-term hair restoration.  

At Este Medical in Turkey, stem cell technology is now part of an advanced transplant method designed to optimise new hair growth results — and clients are seeing the difference.  

To show you how this works in real life, let’s take a look at Gwyneth’s experience: a recent Este UK client who combined her hair transplant in Turkey with stem cell treatment for enhanced results.

How Does a Stem Cell Hair Transplant Work? 

What are Stem Cells? 

Stem cells are special cells in your body that can develop into helpful types of cells. Stem cells are found in almost all tissues of the body. In hair and scalp treatments, your own stem cells are used to trigger natural hair growth and improve the health of your scalp. These unique cells help reactivate weak or dormant hair follicles, support healing and recovery, and boost the overall results of your hair transplant.  

Because the stem cell hair grafting treatment uses your own cells, it’s natural, safe, and highly effective.

Collecting Stem Cells

When it came to collecting Gwyneth’s stem cells for her hair transplant surgery, a medical punch device was used to extract a small sample of skin with hair follicles from behind her ear. The extraction left only the smallest mark, only 2.5 mm in size. The reason for using your own tissue for this procedure is that it is rich in available stem cells that can be processed and then applied to the hair transplant treatment area before or during a hair grafting procedure. It is a minimally invasive procedure — and as you can see in the photo, the four little marks are a sign that a client had stem cell therapy in conjunction with a hair transplant. These micro-punctures will heal and fade with little to no visible evidence of stem cell collection over time.

How Do Hair Transplants with Stem Cells Work?   

You might be surprised how straightforward it is to add stem cell therapy to your hair transplant procedure. This regenerative step can be done just before or during the transplant, meaning there’s no extra time needed, which is perfect if you're travelling to Turkey and want to make the most of your visit.

Here’s how a stem cell hair transplant in Turkey typically works:  

  • Step 1: Stem cell therapy is performed during the same visit as your hair transplant. 
  • Step 2: A punch biopsy is used to collect a small skin sample with hair follicles — this may be done behind the ear. 
  • Step 3: The tissue sample is processed into a concentrated stem cell solution. 
  • Step 4: This solution is injected into the scalp either just before or during the transplant to nourish the scalp and stimulate hair follicles for optimal results.  

The combination of modern hair grafting technology, along with regenerative stem cell science, promotes faster hair growth, stronger follicles, and higher hair graft survival.

Where Can I Get Stem Cell Transplant Treatment? 

Stem cell hair transplant procedures are currently available at the Este Medical hair clinic in Istanbul, Turkey. Both the hair grafting and stem cell collection are done in one place, by professionals trained in the latest regenerative techniques.  

More clients, like our hair restoration client Gwyneth, are discovering the benefits of adding regenerative treatments to their hair transplant journey. Whether stem cells are recommended, or another therapy like PRP or PRF is more suitable, these new options are becoming increasingly popular among people looking to improve scalp condition and maximise hair growth.
