Hair Transplant

What is hair transplant?

In punch transplanting, a plug containing hair follicles is removed from a part of the scalp where hair is more dense and transplanted to the treatment area. Hair transplantation has a high success rate as long as there is enough donor hair. This procedure does not have any long-term or major side effects.

What should first be done before considering a hair transplant?

Before the procedure, doctor will review the patient’s medical history. This is the time for the doctor and patient to discuss expectations, potential risks and outcomes of the procedure. Patients should:

​

• Avoid smoking two weeks before surgery.

• Prepare to have someone drive home since most procedures are outpatient.

• Prepare to take it easy for a day or two following surgery, with assistance if necessary.

• Be aware that local anesthesia and, in some cases, sedation will be administered.

When are hair transplants appropriate?

The procedure is appropriate for the following conditions:

Hair loss 

Who is not a candidate for a hair transplant?

Candidates must have healthy hair growth at the sides and back of the scalp to serve as donor sites. Hair colour, condition and texture also are considerations.

What are the potential complications of hair transplants?

​

• Excessive bleeding

• Wide scarring

• Follicle grafts won't "take."

• Unnatural look, especially if grafted hair lies next to a patch that continues to thin out; additional surgery may be required in this situation.

What can I expect after having had a hair transplant?

The success and amount of hair coverage on a treated area depends on how many hair follicles remain healthy after being transplanted.
Often hair will fall out of a transplanted follicle, but a new hair will eventually grow to take its place.
They will probably need several surgeries to get the hair coverage they want.
Healing between surgeries usually takes several months.

Alopecia or baldness is caused by numerous factors such as aging, genetic predisposition, disease, lack of vitamins,tensions, pollution and drugs in the midst of other factors. It is common for a person to lose between 50 and 70 strands on a daily base. However, when the loss surpasses the average of 200 strands the one needs to consider the hair care precautions.

 

​FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION - THE NO SCALPEL, NO STRIP, MINIMALLY INVASIVE PROCEDURE

Follicular Unit extraction or FUE is a relatively new technique of extracting grafts individually from the scalp. In this type of procedure a small round punch generally less than 1.00 mm in diameter is used to make a small circular incision around the follicular unit. These follicular units are then individually plucked from the scalp. This new procedure negates the need for a linear incision at the back and sides of the scalp with the inevitable scar that is produced.

The extracted follicles are then transplanted into the client's bald or thinning patch on the scalp, or in the pre-planned eyebrow area. FUE is carried out under local anesthesia ensuring full client awareness of what is going on throughout the procedure. Each follicle extracted from the client’s donor area and transplanted into the treated area is perfectly placed to match the hair arrangement, orientation, growth, angle and direction of the rest of the natural hair. All this is done with the utmost care and to the highest degree of client comfort.

 

HAIR REGROWTH POST TRANSPLANTATION BY FUE

The newly transplanted hair into the scalp is immediately visible, however, the hair cycle may involve the falling out of some of the transplanted hairs which then regrow after about 16 weeks. The newly transferred hair grows naturally in its new location for the rest of the person's life. Transferred hair is completely healthy and natural in appearance. Even persons with substantially receding hairlines and bald areas can receive very good coverage with FUE.

 

BENEFITS OF FUE
 

• Permanently Restores Natural Hair Growth

• For Both Men & Women

• No Scarring

• No Bleeding

• No Incision

• Minimal to Nil Discomfort

 

BEST CANDIDATES FOR FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION

The best candidates for FUE hair transplant procedure include:
 

• Patients interested in a smaller size procedure (typically up to 1,000 grafts).

• Patients with a limited donor supply.

• Patients with limited scalp elasticity.

• Patient who have had several FUT procedures and subsequently have a limited donor supply or limited scalp elasticity.

• Patients who have a need or desire to wear their hair exceptionally short.

• Patients who don't mind closely clipping the donor area hair at the time of the procedure.

 

THE STRIP TECHNIQUE

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) Strip Harvesting - a strip of scalp is removed under local anesthesia, the wound is then sutured back together and this piece of scalp tissue is then cut in to small pieces of tissue called grafts. This method will leave a linear scar in the donor area, which should be covered by a patient's hair (if long). The recovery period is around 2 weeks and will require the stitches to be removed by medical personnel.

Under the microscope follicular units are identified and dissected in a way that leaves them intact in their genetic form. They are then placed in the recipient area with the appropriate density, distribution, direction, angulations and orientation thus giving natural results.
