Afro hair transplant describes transplantation planned for tightly curled or coiled hair, rather than a separate surgical method. Follicle curvature, donor characteristics and scalp health can affect planning. At HCT in Turkey, discuss your own hair and goals: a broad hair-type label cannot determine eligibility, graft numbers or the right approach.

Curvature and donor assessment
Curved follicles require attention during graft collection. The appearance of volume from curl is not a substitute for examining donor density and suitability.

Scalp and healing history
Discuss any scalp disorder, previous raised scars or unusual healing. Scarring forms of hair loss require clinical evaluation before transplantation is considered.

Your own features and preferences
People with textured hair do not all have the same curl pattern or want the same hairline. Bring your styling preferences rather than relying on a standard design.

| Planning topic | Question to ask |
|---|---|
| Cause of hair loss | What needs to be established before treatment is recommended? |
| Donor characteristics | How will collection account for my particular hair and follicles? |
| Hairline design | How does the proposal reflect my preferences and future needs? |
| Prior scars or scalp problems | Do I need a further clinical assessment before deciding? |
| Hair preparation | What should I confirm about trimming and appointment preparation? |
These questions help make the consultation specific. They do not establish a diagnosis or imply that one technique is suitable for every person with coiled hair.
Ask about the approach
Request an explanation of the proposed donor collection method and the team’s experience with hair characteristics comparable to yours. Ask how limitations will be communicated.
Review the intended design
Discuss the planned outline, treatment zones and styling priorities. Ask how the proposed placement approach relates to that design rather than choosing from a technique name alone.
Request relevant examples
If examples are shown during consultation, ask about the starting condition, follow-up interval and whether they are the clinic’s own consented cases. Another person’s result is not a prediction of yours.

Understand surgical risks
Transplantation can leave scars and carries risks such as infection or poor growth. Ask how risks apply to your individual assessment.

Ask about skin and follicle changes
Pigment changes, folliculitis and raised scarring are considerations to discuss where relevant to your history. A hair-type or ethnicity label alone should not be used to predict your recovery.

Agree on a follow-up plan
Ask when to review progress, how to send follow-up information and whom to contact if something concerns you. Confirm these arrangements before travelling.
There is no separate Afro hair transplant range in HCT’s supplied technique price table. Request a quote for your assessed plan; do not assume a fixed price or an additional charge based on hair texture.

Confirm treatment scope
Ask the proposal to identify the planned treatment area, method and preparation requirements.
- 02
Separate the quote from general guidance
The published technique ranges provide context. Ask which range, if any, applies to your proposal and request the final total and inclusions in writing.
Read the technique price guide
Afro describes the hair characteristics being considered, not a single surgical method. Ask which donor collection and placement approaches are proposed for your individual assessment.
No graft requirement or coverage guarantee should be inferred from a texture label. Ask how your proposed treatment area and donor assessment inform the plan.
Tell the clinical team about previous diagnoses, scars, treatments and concerns. Ask whether additional examination is needed before a transplant decision can be made.
No separate range or texture-based surcharge has been supplied for this page. Request the assessed treatment scope, total cost and any additional charges in writing.
