When hair transplant surgery first became available, it was mainly targeted at men looking to cover bald spots or fix a receding hairline. For years, the assumption was that only older men cared about restoring their hair. Women dealing with hair growth conditions were expected to manage with wigs or scarves. Thankfully, those outdated ideas have evolved. Today, more women than ever are confidently turning to targeted hair restoration to treat everything from thinning hair to menopause-related hair loss.

And now, we’re seeing another important shift. Hair transplant procedures are increasingly being recognized as a meaningful and supportive part of gender-affirming care. Whether it’s lowering a hairline, filling in the crown, or creating facial hair through beard or eyebrow transplants, these surgical treatments can help align a person’s appearance with their gender identity. At Este Medical Group in Turkey, we’re proud to offer inclusive options for anyone seeking to feel more like themselves.  

Hair loss doesn’t discriminate, and neither do we. Our team of professionals works closely with every Este client to create a personalized hair restoration plan that reflects their goals and journey. Whether you choose FUE, DHI, or another hair regrowth method, our focus is on delivering natural-looking, confidence-boosting results that work.  

Inclusivity is at the heart of what we do. At Este Medical, our commitment to equality extends beyond our treatments and into our workplace culture. We are proud to support all gender identities and create a safe, welcoming space for everyone.

What Is A Transgender Hair Transplant? ‍

A transgender hair transplant is a gender-affirming procedure that supports individuals in achieving their desired appearance by reshaping or adding hair to specific areas, such as the hairline, crown of the head, temples, or face. For some, that may mean creating a softer frame around the face, while for others it could involve adding facial hair or adjusting the position of the hairline. It’s a personal and powerful step, made possible through advanced hair restoration techniques that focus on natural-looking results that are permanent. 

The procedure itself is the same for men, women, and transgender clients — healthy hair follicles are taken from a donor area (usually the back of the head) and transplanted to areas that need reshaping or filling out, whether that’s the scalp, beard, or hairline. There are several hair regrowth options available. 

Are Hair Transplants for Transgender Individuals Possible? 

Yes, they are! However, hair restoration is not one-size-fits-all, and at Este Turkey, we understand the importance of customizing treatment to suit each individual client.  

If you want more information about transformative hair transplants and how many hair grafts you may require, then we invite you to book a discreet and private consultation with Este Medical Group. 

Can I Have A Hair Transplant While Taking Hormones? ‍

Yes, in most cases it’s fine to have a hair transplant while on hormone replacement therapy (HRT). We recommend speaking with your hormone specialist and then with a hair transplant surgeon to determine the right time or treatment plan. Factors like age, genetics, and your specific hormone treatments may influence when you should have a hair grafting procedure.

Common Reasons For Transgender Hair Transplants ‍

Transgender individuals choose hair transplants for a range of personal and medical reasons. A key motivation is to support gender expression by shaping a hair pattern or style that aligns with one’s identity — whether that means softening the hairline, increasing beard density, or filling in areas affected by hair thinning.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can also influence hair growth, and some individuals experience changes in hair density and texture. Hair restoration may be used to address hair loss caused by hormonal shifts, emotional stress, or other transitional changes.  

Lastly, cosmetic and aesthetic goals play an important role. A hair transplant offers the ability to personalize your look — from the shape of your hairline to the thickness of your brows — and take control of how you present yourself to the world.

Hair Transplants Are for Everyone: What Really Matters‍

What types of hair transplants are available? Whether you are transgender, female, or male, you may be a candidate for a hair transplant if certain conditions are met. What matters most is whether you have a healthy amount of donor hair available to help you reach your hair restoration goals. It's also important that your scalp and hair follicles are in good condition, and that your expectations for the procedure are realistic. These factors are far more important than gender when it comes to planning a successful hair graft treatment.  

Turkey offers the best and most effective hair restoration techniques in the world. Options like FUE hair transplant (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) allow for precise, natural-looking results. These methods can be tailored for all hair types, including curly, afro-textured, thick, or thinning hair. An Este Medical hair transplant surgeon will work with you to design a treatment plan that complements your facial features, reshapes your hairline, or creates balance and harmony in your overall appearance.
