MPGCARE coordinates specialist assessment at suitable Medical Park and Liv Hospital partner centers in Türkiye. The receiving hospital, clinician and available services are confirmed individually. A clinical examination and review of previous records guide the plan; photographs or a remote inquiry do not establish a diagnosis or guarantee a procedure.
Hair transplantation redistributes suitable follicles from a donor area; it does not create unlimited new hair or treat every cause of hair loss. A physician first identifies the diagnosis, stability of loss, scalp health and donor reserve. Technique, surgical team, facility and realistic coverage are confirmed after assessment, rather than from a package or photographs alone.

Hair-loss conditions and restoration concerns

The examples below describe possible assessment pathways. The clinician chooses investigations and care according to findings, alternatives, medical history and informed consent.

Am I a suitable candidate?
The physician reviews age, progression, family history, scalp examination, donor density and hair characteristics, medicines and health. Selected trichoscopy, blood tests or biopsy may clarify the cause. Not everyone with thinning is suitable: diffuse donor loss, active inflammation or unrealistic coverage goals can limit surgery. Alternatives include medical treatment, camouflage or observation. A consultation must explain both expected benefit and limitations.

FUE, FUT and implantation terminology
FUE removes individual follicular units using small surgical excisions; FUT obtains a donor strip that is divided into grafts and leaves a linear scar. FUE also leaves scars and is not scar-free. Terms such as DHI describe implantation approaches; a marketing name alone does not establish superiority. Harvesting and placement are separate steps. Technique is chosen for the patient’s donor reserve, hairstyle, goals and risks, not a universal ranking.

Hairline design, graft counts and future planning
A graft is a follicular unit and can contain more than one hair; graft and hair counts are not interchangeable. The plan considers facial proportions, direction, density, donor safety and further loss of native hair. An excessively low hairline or overharvesting can compromise future options. The safe number and coverage are decided clinically; a maximum-graft advertisement or photo cannot guarantee the final density.

Who performs the procedure and what is included?
Ask for the responsible physician, qualifications, who performs surgical steps, the facility and how complications are managed. Hair transplantation is surgery even when described as minimally invasive. The written plan should specify method, anesthesia, donor/recipient areas, estimated graft range, aftercare and follow-up. Confirm what medicines, tests and accommodation are included. A listed method does not mean every partner center provides it.

Preparation, anesthesia and procedure day
Disclose smoking, allergies, bleeding problems, medicines, diabetes and scalp treatment. Do not stop anticoagulants or other prescriptions yourself. The team provides specific washing, food, clothing and medication instructions. Local anesthesia is commonly used; any sedation needs separate assessment and precautions. Harvesting, site creation and placement take time depending on the case; same-day departure or a fixed duration is not guaranteed.

Recovery, washing and warning signs
Follow the surgeon’s written instructions for gentle cleansing, sleeping, activity, headwear and sun exposure. Swelling, crusting, tenderness and temporary shedding can occur; timing varies. Do not pick grafts or improvise aftercare products. Persistent bleeding, increasing pain/redness, fever, discharge or a dusky/dark wound should prompt urgent contact and local examination when required; severe allergic or breathing symptoms need emergency care.

When do results appear and what can go wrong?
Growth and maturation occur over months, and early shedding does not by itself establish failure. The treating physician gives an individualized review schedule. Risks include bleeding, infection, scarring, altered sensation, temporary loss of nearby hairs, poor growth and an unsatisfactory design. Native hair can continue thinning; another procedure or medical maintenance may be considered, not promised. Full density and a guaranteed graft survival rate cannot be assured for every patient.

Medicines, PRP and other supportive options
Selected medical treatments may be discussed after diagnosis, with suitability, pregnancy considerations, adverse effects and continued use explained. PRP or light-based approaches have particular indications and variable evidence/response; they are not mandatory additions or substitutes for diagnosis and do not guarantee graft survival. “Stem cell” or regenerative marketing does not establish an approved effective treatment. The clinician should explain the exact intervention and supporting evidence before consent.

Travel and long-term follow-up
Confirm the first wash/review, wound status, travel clearance and who will assess problems after return. Share progress images only through an agreed appropriate channel; examination may still be needed. The plan should explain whether native-hair treatment continues, review timing and any possible correction costs. Ordinary travel support does not determine surgical fitness or replace the physician’s aftercare.

Preparing records, appointments and a written plan
Share current symptoms, their timeline, existing reports, a medicine list, allergies and relevant previous treatment. The specialist determines which tests and appointments are needed. Ask for a written scope distinguishing consultation, investigations, procedures, medicines and follow-up, with report timing and arrangements for complications. No universal duration or guaranteed outcome applies to every patient.

MPGCARE travel coordination and continuity of care
MPGCARE helps organize records, appointments and communication with the confirmed Medical Park or Liv Hospital partner center. Free Sarp–Trabzon transfer and airport–hospital transfer for patients arriving by air are arranged after confirming route, timing and accompanying persons. Medical fitness to travel, accommodation, extra visits and local follow-up must be clarified before departure.
