Thanks to our amazing client Kebba and the magic of video, we’re able to walk you through one of the most informative Afro hair transplant journeys from Este Medical Turkey. Kebba came to our hair loss clinic in Turkey with a goal — to restore his hairline and confidence — and with over 4,000 hair grafts, he made it happen!  

If you’ve ever wondered what a hair transplant looks like step-by-step, from right after surgery to the 1-year mark, we’ve got you covered. You’ll see it all: immediately post-op, then 24 hours later, 2 weeks in, and how things evolve at 2, 3, 6, and 12 months.  

This real-life timeline is one of the best ways to understand what to expect from an Este Medical Turkey hair transplant. It’s exciting, educational, and incredibly reassuring to see so much hair regrowth over time. A huge thank you to Kebba Saidy for letting us share his inspiring results — we hope this gives you the confidence to reach out and take the first step in your own hair restoration journey with Este Medical Group!

One Trip, One Procedure, One Amazing Result  ‍

Kebba’s hair transformation took just one trip to Turkey and 4,115 expertly placed hair grafts. For many men, a single hair transplant is enough to achieve long-term, natural-looking results. While the number of grafts required can vary based on the extent of hair loss and your grooming goals, tools like a hair graft calculator can give you a rough idea.  

At Este Turkey, we’ll give you a personalized hair graft estimate during a consultation. And yes — Afro FUE hair transplants are absolutely possible. Textured or curly hair can be transplanted just as successfully as straight hair. Our experienced hair surgeons use a specialist FUE method tailored to Afro hair, ensuring that curly follicles are extracted and implanted with precision and care. Kebba’s results speak for themselves, proof that one procedure really can make a life-changing difference.

What to Expect From Your Hair Transplant Journey: Kebba’s Timeline‍

1-Year Hair Transplant Timeline: Let’s recap what we see in Kebba’s video — how he went from immediate post-op to a bold but natural-looking Afro hairline in just 12 months. Here’s the average timeline of new hair growth with a successful hair transplant:

• +24 Hours: Initial healing begins. Hair graft sites are visible and may appear red or raised.
• 2–4 Weeks: Post-op healing crusts form and naturally fall off. Some hair shedding is normal during this phase — it’s called shock loss and it’s temporary.
• 3–4 Months: Early signs of hair regrowth appear. New hairs begin to push through the scalp.
• 6 Months: Major changes begin. The hairline fills in with visible density and increased hair volume.
• 9 Months: Coverage looks strong. Hair texture becomes more defined and natural.
• 12 Months: Final results are in! The transplanted hair follicles are looking full, healthy, and blend perfectly with existing hair.
  

Watching this hair regrowth transformation unfold is a great way to understand the process — and to stay motivated about what’s possible!
