    How Long Do You Have to Wait for the Second Hair Transplant Surgery?

    30/01/2023

    Hair transplant surgeries performed by professionals with proper planning generally yield successful results in the first session. However, sometimes a second session may be needed to achieve the desired hair density. Regardless of the reason, it is necessary to wait for the operation area to completely heal before a second hair transplant operation can be planned.

    Why is a Second Hair Transplant Needed?

    • Sometimes the number of transplanted hair grafts may be insufficient to achieve the desired hair density. In this case, a second hair transplant surgery can be planned at the request of the patient after the procedure area has completely healed.
    • Genetic transmission plays a very decisive role in the problem of hair loss. Hair transplantation is effective in eliminating the existing problem. It is not a process to prevent spills that may occur after sowing. If hair loss continues after the surgery, a new hair transplant surgery may be needed.
    • Planning and application errors in hair transplantation create the need for revision hair transplantation. Revision hair transplantation may be preferred to correct planning errors in the anterior hairline, an artificial appearance or the complications caused by the first hair transplantation.

    What Should You Know Before A Second Hair Transplant Surgery?

    After the results of the first hair transplant, patients may want to have denser hair or a wider hairline, and therefore want to have a second hair transplant surgery. Only your doctor can decide if you are suitable for a second hair transplant. Donor area quality and capacity are extremely important. There should be enough quality hair follicles in the donor area for a second hair transplant. Another issue as important as the donor area is anterior hairline planning. Planning mistakes in the front hairline can result in an artificial appearance.

    Grafts Are Needed for Second Hair Transplant Surgery ?

    The most discussed subject of hair transplant surgeries is the number of grafts to be transplanted . This is a very sensitive subject. Prioritizing commercial concerns in hair transplantation, unfortunately, paves the way for unethical ways. People who want to have a hair transplant are convinced that the more grafts they collect, the more hair density they will get. It should be known that this can create a dangerous situation that will lead to tissue death, and extreme caution should be exercised in the face of such promises. For the first hair transplant surgeries , 3500 to 4000 grafts can be transplanted according to the capacity of the donor area . In cases where a second hair transplant is required, the amount that may be needed can vary between 500 and 1500.

    How Long Should I Wait for a Second Hair Transplant Surgery?

    After hair transplant surgery, it takes some time for the hair follicles to heal. This takes about 12 months. After the hair follicles are completely healed, a second hair transplant can be planned if the patient has a good donor area.During the second hair transplant, care should be taken not to damage the hair follicles transplanted in the first surgery.

    Does Second Hair Transplantation Require a Separate Care Routine?

    In order for hair transplant surgeries to provide satisfactory visual results;

    • A doctor with practical experience and references should be preferred.
    • The techniques used in hair transplant surgeries should be investigated with all their advantages and disadvantages, and modern techniques should be used for the most natural results.

    The care that patients show during the post-operative recovery period is as important as a correct technique and application. All the instructions given by the doctor after the first hair transplant surgery are also valid for the second surgery.
