As can be seen, women generally experience partial baldness or hair loss. In some hair transplantation methods, while the hair is shaved in men, there is absolutely no shaving option in women.
Before starting the hair transplantation process, hair type analysis is performed. In women, the hair between the ears and on the nape either does not shed at all or falls out very difficult. Therefore, these are the donor areas.
After the analysis process is completed and no disease is detected for women hair transplant , the area to be transplanted is marked. The DHI technique, which is an unshaven hair transplant method, is generally preferred.
Just like in male hair transplantation, the direction of hair growth is also determined in women.
