[00:00:00]In Afro hair types, the procedure is technically very different from other hair types. And since many clinics lack the necessary equipment and experience, they unfortunately fail to achieve good results. But at Elithair, we have specialized teams dedicated to Afro hair transplant. Afro hair is structurally [music] very different from straight hair. While straight hair is aligned like this, and the micro FUE device can easily extract grafts one by one, Afro hair grafts are shaped like this, and a standard micro FUE device would end up damaging them during extraction. We have specific techniques to straighten these grafts. While they are curved, we straighten them and extract them one by one, ensuring that no graft is damaged in any way during the process. It requires years of experience. We have teams that have performed thousands of successful operations specializing exclusively in Afro hair.
