Life Time Greffe de cheveux
Moustache transplantation provides a fuller moustache appearance with natural and permanent results. It is an ideal solution especially for those who have sparse or shedding problems.
Mustache transplantation is generally preferred because the hair on the lips does not grow. It is applied to those who want to thicken this area.
An examination is performed before the treatment. It is done by preserving the hair follicles in a suitable way. It is at least as common as hair transplantation.
It is frequently applied by individuals in cases such as burns, surgical scars and roots. In this procedure, hair follicles are transplanted to the area where hair does not grow. These hair follicles are taken one by one from the nape area and transferred to the appropriate area.
During the transplantation process, care is taken to ensure that the hair follicles are not close to each other. This is critical for their healthy nutrition.
If no hair grows on the lip, an average of 1000 follicles are transplanted. Patients determine the frequency of transplantation themselves. The commonly used FUE technique is known for its closeness to the natural appearance. There are no pain complaints and scarring.
What is Mustache Transplantation?
The method called FUE is used in this treatment. After 2-3 hours of micro-surgery, the treatment is completed with painless and painless suturing.
Hair follicles taken with the FUE method are transplanted into the patient’s skin layer. You can decide for yourself how many hair follicles will be taken from which part of your hair.
You can get the most efficient information by consulting your doctor. The collected hair follicles are added on the lip with the help of special tools.
A few months after the first transplantation, if there are sparse areas, a new transplantation can be performed. Mustache transplantation is a very difficult and meticulous procedure.
Therefore, it must be done by experts in the field. Otherwise, negative results may be obtained and may bring unwanted health problems.
Mustache Transplantation Process
After a consultation with your doctor, if you are suitable for transplantation, mustache planning is made. During this planning, it is decided which areas will be transplanted, how much root will be transplanted and the techniques to be applied. In order for the hair on the lip to be nourished in a healthy way, it should not be transplanted more than it should be.
You must be sensitive about taking into account the recommendations of your specialist physician. Another issue to be considered is the transplantation technique.
Especially the FUE method is known as a technique that has recently been accepted worldwide. It is frequently preferred because it leaves no scars and is applied with minimal damage.
Who Can Mustache Transplantation Be Applied to?
One of the questions to be answered before treatment is who can undergo mustache transplantation. This procedure is not only performed on corners. It can also be performed on people whose mustache is sparse or whose hair is reduced for different reasons.
We can show injuries, burns and cuts as examples. Men who suffer from mustache ratio can have mustache transplantation treatment if the donor area is suitable and fulfills the conditions of the operation. Various tests are applied for this. Again, your doctors will give the most accurate information.
What should be considered on the day of the operation?
- On the day of the operation, you should prefer clothes that you can easily put on and take off. You should pay attention to a clothing order that will not rub your face. In addition, smoking makes both the operation and the healing process difficult. Therefore, you should take care not to smoke before the treatment. In addition, you should avoid exaggerated requests and expectations. It will also be useful to consume light foods.
- If there are any medications you use regularly, be sure to inform the doctor about this. Do not use any medication without consulting your doctor. You should also avoid alcohol.
- If you already have a little mustache, you should not cut it. The treatment day is shortened in the hospital environment if deemed necessary after the analyzes performed. In addition to all these, you should also avoid caffeinated drinks.
Natural Looking Mustache Transplant
This treatment is a very effective solution in cases where the mustache does not grow due to diseases, injuries and genetic factors. Mustache transplantation is performed by removing hair follicles if there is no or sparse hair on the lip.
Natural looking mustache transplantation has a high success rate. It allows men to achieve the desired appearance in a painless and painless way. The treatment is performed under local anesthesia. Operations are planned in a personalized way under the control of a doctor. Because everyone’s mustache sparseness and face shape are different.
With the development of technology day by day, digital three-dimensional systems have started to enter our lives. In this way, patients can have information about the image after mustache transplantation. Thus, the risk of post-operative dissatisfaction is also eliminated. As a matter of fact, the comments made by patients after mustache transplantation treatment are largely positive.
Mustache Transplant Procedure
Mustache transplantation is similar to hair transplantation. Since it is performed in the face area, it is a much more sensitive procedure than you can imagine. Since it is a facial area, care should be taken against scarring.
In mustache transplantation, local anesthesia is applied only on the lips to prevent pain and soreness. The nape is generally preferred for the area where hair follicles will be collected.
However, this can also be changed to arm and leg hair. Hair follicles are collected with the FUE method and micromotor. How many hair follicles will be collected is determined according to the sparseness in the mustache area. The roots collected one by one are cleaned and extracted. Then they are meticulously placed in the channels opened in the mustache area.
The transplanted area is left open and a bandage is applied to the donor area for a few days. The transplanted area is not washed until the time given by your doctor. The healing process can take an average of 10 days. In the 10-day process, crusting is seen in the hair follicles. This crust falls off in a short time and the hair follicles begin to heal.
After the treatment, the hairs that grow longer can be shortened with scissors after 2 weeks. After 2-3 weeks after transplantation, a condition called shock shedding may occur. Shock shedding is not seen in everyone, but it can be seen from time to time.
In such cases, the mustache grows again towards the middle of the fourth month and continues in its normal growth course. Approximately 6 months after the mustache transplantation, the transplanted roots begin to hold in place. Your mustache will continue to grow in the normal cycle.
Post Operation Process
The process after the treatment varies from person to person. However, the desired results are obtained in an average of 8-10 months. The method applied in mustache transplantation treatment is one of the most important factors affecting the healing process. The FUE method ensures that possible complications are minimized.
Rushing to shave after transplantation can negatively affect the healing process. It is important to keep the treated area dry for the first 3-5 days after the operation.
It is generally recommended to use lotion to soften the crusts and make them fall off spontaneously. Forcibly removing the scabs or exposing the procedure area to direct sunlight may delay healing.

However, it is known to be manageable. You should take care to use the medicines recommended by your doctor according to the instructions given. You need to be sensitive in this regard to prevent major problems.
The lip area should not be moved too much in the first few days after treatment. If possible, it should be spent with plenty of rest. Thus, the roots in the transplanted area are not damaged and displaced.
At the end of the third day, the first wash is applied to the transplanted area. Lotion is applied after washing. In this way, crusts soften. Then the upper lip area is washed with small movements.
No pressure should be applied during this process. Itching and crusting is a common condition. The crusts should not be peeled off and the treated area should not be itchy.
