People considering a hair transplant certainly conduct research beforehand. However, even though they gather a wealth of information, watch visual images and videos, and understand many things visually, they may not be completely satisfied with the procedure itself, and questions like, "What is the pain level during the procedure?" and "Does it hurt a lot?" remain unanswered. In this article, we will answer these questions for those considering a hair transplant at Haarex Clinic and clear up any doubts. However, to understand painless hair transplantation and needle-free hair transplantation, we first need to understand the anesthesia phase of the hair transplant and where the pain occurs.
Although the FUE method is a microsurgical procedure, it basically intervenes in two areas.
In the donor area where the hair follicles are collected, the process of separating the hair follicles from the skin is performed with a micro motor device.
It is the process of opening micro incisions (channels) under the skin in the bald area where the hair follicles will be transplanted.
There is absolutely a need for anesthesia before these two procedures.
Anesthesia is mandatory before these two key stages. Before the Comfort-In system, a primitive anesthetic injected subcutaneously with a needle would numb the area and allow for micro-intervention. At this point, Haarex Clinic introduced the Comfort-In, its newest and most technologically advanced anesthesia device.
This device injects the anesthetic medication under the skin (epidermis) with a spray system using high pressure without using a needle, without the patient feeling any pain.
The Comfort-In syringe used has a pressure-generating spring in its body. At its lower end is a cartridge containing the anesthetic medication. The piston tip at the cartridge has a tip opening of 0.15 mm.
Normal local anesthesia
Needle-free local anesthesia
When the trigger at the top is pressed, a spring generates pressure, injecting the substance in the cartridge under the skin without any incision or injury. The patient feels only a slight pressure, and the area becomes numb.
When applied directly with the device, the dose can be adjusted. Rapid application allows for early intervention. Risk of infection is eliminated. This treatment can be easily applied to any area of the head. It is certified and patented.
