Especially if you are experiencing sudden and intense hair loss, some products or medications you use may also be responsible for hair loss. In recent studies, hair loss has increased significantly in black men. This may be due to tightly braided hairstyles. The most effective method for this type of hair loss is hair transplantation. In Afro type hair transplantation, preserving the natural folds and achieving high graft numbers is possible in operations performed by expert surgeons. In these hair types, attention should be paid to the formation of scars after the operation.

Each hair follicle is transplanted using the Choi pen. Dhi technique is an advanced method. The pen protects the delicate hair grafts from damage during transplantation. DHI hair transplantation method provides higher hair vitality and easier hair transplantation procedure. The only disadvantage of this method is that the surgery takes longer. In Afro type hair transplantation, the dhi technique is considered appropriate in certain cases. This technique requires high experience and precision for Afro type hair transplantation.

Zeynep Metin Clinic for Your Afro Hair Transplantation

Afro hair transplantation operations require high experience and professionalism. An inexperienced surgeon may damage other hair follicles during follicle harvesting. Since the Afro hair follicles have a c-shaped and curved structure, cuts may occur while removing the graft. This affects the number of grafts.
