In this way, the patient can adapt to his/her daily life more quickly after the operation. In this method, Choi Pen, also known as the pencil technique is applied. Tissues taken from donor hair follicles are frequently applied to the area where hair loss is experienced. This hair transplantation method also gives very successful and effective results because it is applied naturally. In this way, the patient regains his/her former hair naturally with the tissues taken from the donor hair follicles without any surgical procedure.

FUE Method

FUE stands for Follicular Unit Extraction. FUE method is one of the advanced hair transplant technologies all around the world. Micro-sized cylindrical tips are used in this process.

Since thousands of roots will be removed from the donor area during hair transplantation, the small size of the tip to be used affects the healing process.
