From the dawn of mankind, abundant hair has been a symbol of femininity, health and strength.
Women who deal with hair loss and thinning hair have to deal with damage to self-esteem and decreased self-confidence.
There are actually various reasons for hair loss - hormonal reasons like a decrease in the hormone estrogen at the onset of menopause, changes in thyroid activity as sometimes happens after birth, poor nutrition or simply the genetics we inherited from our parents.
Some women who suffer from the phenomenon find ways to cope through hairstyles that hide the problem areas or wearing hats, scarves and wigs for full coverage.
But while these solutions can help women hide the problem, they are not a real solution.
In the pharmaceutical market there are treatments that are supposed to encourage hair growth like treatments with herbs and supplements or various prescription drugs, but in the end the results in the field are not good enough and their effectiveness is questionable.
Another solution designed to address the problem of baldness is hair transplantation, but in fact it is a solution that is especially suitable for men, as hair transplantation almost always requires shaving the hair in the required area and waiting for long weeks for hair regrowth, making it difficult for women to access the process.
Over the years the technology has evolved, if in the past they used to move strips of skin from one area of the head where the hair grows to the area where the hair falls out, a procedure that led to the appearance of unaesthetic scars, today technology is used to implant hair follicles in holes in the scalp.
In any case, it is a complex and lengthy surgical process that usually requires several rounds for a complete transplant and a long wait until the hair grows.
In many places like in Turkey the transplants are not performed by doctors which can lead not only to a bad result but to endanger the patients with infections.

Recently, a fourth solution has also been added, which is hair injection. Instead of implanting hair follicles in a complex surgical procedure, the new solution is similar to Botox injections. This solution provides an immediate solution in less than 60 minutes.
In this process anatomically structured synthetic hair implants are inserted into the scalp using disposable sterile cartridges. Each implant is attached to a miniature anchor that ensures immediate and secure fixation to the scalp. The implants are made of polyamide and minitinol, biologically compatible safe materials that have been used by the surgical industry for decades. The injected implants are offered in a variety and styles (curly / smooth) and the hair implants can be matched to her natural hair color.
The hair is injected in a gradual process.
A pre-transplant test is performed first, and after about 6 weeks the full procedure is performed subject to the approval of the operating physician.
The hair injection is done under local anesthesia only and lasts less than 60 minutes and provides an immediate solution, during which a real-time adjustment can be made to achieve the best results.
After treatment it is possible to return to routine immediately, the injection results last between two and five years on average.
