Hair Simulation
Hair simulation is a non-surgical procedure that uses special pigments to create the appearance of hair follicles in areas affected by hair loss or thinning. The procedure, carried out using micro-needles, makes the hair appear thicker and denser. It is an effective alternative, particularly for those experiencing advanced hair loss, those who are not suitable candidates for hair transplantation, or those wishing to increase density following a transplant. A natural shading effect is achieved, resulting in an aesthetic and youthful appearance.
The hair simulation treatment we offer at Dr Emre Kaynak’s Clinic is not merely a standard camouflage procedure, but rather an art of hair densification that mimics the natural structure, direction and colour of hair follicles. In line with our vision of ‘ageing gracefully’, we aim to give you a much fuller, younger and more dynamic appearance by instantly covering any thinning areas in your hair.
What is Hair Simulation? How is it done?
Hair simulation is a technique that involves creating micro-effects resembling hair follicles (roots) in areas affected by hair loss, using specially manufactured devices and micro-needles. When viewed from the outside, the procedure creates the illusion of a shaved head or a very tightly combed parting.
At the Dr Emre Kaynak Clinic, the procedure is carried out with the highest standards of sterilisation and aesthetic care:
Specialised Medical Pigments: No tattoo ink is used in the procedure. Instead, hypoallergenic pigments are used which are compatible with the scalp’s structure and the human body, do not fade over time, and are free from heavy metals.
Microneedling Technology: Micro-needles are used that target only the outermost layer of the skin (the epidermis-dermis junction). The aim here is to ensure that the treatment does not reach your existing live hair follicles and does not disrupt your hair growth cycle.
Applications and Benefits of Hair Simulation
The hair micropigmentation treatment we carry out at our clinic is specifically designed to offer our patients hair treatment solutions in the following situations:
- Post-Hair Transplant Thickening: For patients who have undergone a hair transplant but whose graft density has not quite reached the desired level, to camouflage the patches of white scalp visible between the hairs
- Concealing FUE/FUT Scars: Concealing the scars, incisions and gaps left in the nape of the neck (the donor area) as a result of previous hair transplants
- Localised and Generalised Thinning: Camouflaging thinning areas—particularly at the crown and along the parting, which are common in women—by making the hair appear as thick as if it had been dyed
- Alopecia (Hair Loss) Camouflage: Permanently and naturally concealing the round, bald patches caused by sudden hair loss
Implementation Process and Stages:
- Natural Colour and Hairline Design: The patient’s current hair colour, skin tone and the natural direction of hair growth are analysed. To ensure a natural look, a hairline design is drawn that best suits the facial features.
- Comfortable Treatment (Local Anaesthesia): The area to be treated is sterilised. Strong local anaesthetic solutions are applied to ensure that no discomfort or pain is felt during the procedure.
- Micropigmentation Stage: Using a hair simulation device, thousands of micro-hair follicle effects are meticulously applied to the scalp. Depending on the size of the area, a session lasts between 1 and 3 hours on average.
- Gradual Tanning (Treatment Protocol): To assess how well the skin accepts the dye, the treatment is usually scheduled over 2 or 3 sessions, one week apart.
