What is Stem Cell Therapy?
“Successful results are obtained with the cellular treatment method in hair loss, which is quite common in the society. A tissue sample of the size of a lentil is taken from the scalp, obtained from the nape area, and the individual's own cells are produced in a laboratory with very special conditions and injected into the bald areas under the skin. In this way, the hair follicles that are dormant and cannot produce hair can be awakened, allowing the formation of strong, thick, dark hair and the emergence of new hair follicles.
Current studies show that the regenerative and repairing properties of stem cells are an important and effective resource that can be used for therapeutic purposes in the medical field. It gives very effective results in problems called male pattern hair loss, which are very common in our country as well as in women for various reasons (such as early menopause, postpartum).
Stem cell therapy has been playing an active role in both skin care and hair transplantation in recent years. In fact, stem cells are the main cells that make up all the tissues and organs in our body. Stem cells can divide unlimitedly, renew themselves, and turn into organs and tissues. For this reason, stem cells are actively used in cancer diseases, nervous system diseases, organ failure, and romantic diseases. Stem cell application, which also plays a major role in hair transplantation, allows people to have bushy and thick hair.
In Which Situations Is Hair Treatment With Root Applied?
The main purpose of hair treatment with stem cells is to prevent the loss of existing hair strands, to strengthen the hair strands, to nourish the hair follicles and to ensure the reproduction of new hair strands. If your hair has shed severely, the correct procedure would be to apply PRP together with hair transplantation. We do not encounter hair loss problems in people who have hair transplantation with PRP. By treating the hair follicles with stem cells, they become more alive and healthy, new hair strands are formed, and live and healthy hair does not fall out. Hair treatment with stem cells can be applied to both men and women on thinned and weakened hair. You can regain most of the hair strands you lost. Even if your hair is shed, your body can produce new hair when your hair follicles are treated.
How is stem cell therapy done in hair transplantation?
First, a piece of tissue as small as the head of a pin is taken from the patient. These part certificates are sent to the laboratory and cell reproduction work is started. The cell reproduced here is applied to the area to be transplanted. Thus, bushy and healthy hair strands begin to grow from the area where the person has baldness or hair loss. After the stem cell is made, the person's hair will grow denser and healthier. Stem cell therapy also allows existing hair strands to grow and become thicker. Even if the person's hair loss problem goes away, the stem cell will give a positive result.
How long does stem cell therapy take?
Stem cell therapy in hair transplantation consists of two steps. First, a small piece of tissue taken from the patient is sent to the laboratory to be replicated. It is possible to produce millions of cells from this stem cell in an average of 3 weeks. In the second step, the cells produced are injected into the scalp of the patient. Thus, the hair transplant is completed.
The aim of stem cell therapy is to get as natural a result as possible. If an image similar to the person's natural hair appears as a result of hair transplantation, it means that a successful hair transplant has taken place. You can see the most effective result in 8-12 months after hair transplantation.
What are the Advantages of Stem Cell Hair Treatment?
The individual's own hair follicle cells are produced in our laboratories at international standards.
No chemical stimulus is used in this application.
An application such as a protein cocktail made from pig bladder or preparations that are used to stop hair loss and have many side effects are not used.
Why stem cell therapy?
Stem cell therapy produces healthier and bushy hair strands than conventional hair transplantation. The person gets thick hair that will last a lifetime. The bald area on the head of the person is filled and the patient's self-confidence increases. Stem cell therapy can be preferred not only by people with baldness, but also by those who have weak hair strands and want to have thicker hair.

After the hair follicles are placed in the transplant area, time is required for new hair to grow.

In this process, the transplanted hair follicles hold their place and your hair starts to grow again. Between 6 months and 1 year, your hair gets stronger, gains a natural look and the results of hair transplantation become more obvious.
