Hair transplant is a surgical procedure that involves taking hair follicles from one part of the body (often the back or sides of the head) and transplanting them to areas of the scalp with thinning or no hair.

Hair transplants can be an effective solution for people experiencing hair loss or baldness, helping them restore their hairline and improve their overall appearance. The procedure has evolved over the years.

Pattern baldness is responsible for the majority of hair loss. This comes down to genetics.

The remaining cases are due to various factors, including:

• diet

• stress

• illness

• hormonal imbalance

• medications

• Permanent hair restoration

• Natural-looking results

• Improved self-confidence

• Low maintenance

• Cost-effective in the long run

• No risk of rejection

• Quick recovery time

There are Two Primary Techniques commonly used:

Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT): This method involves removing a strip of skin from the donor area, usually the back of the head, and dissecting it into individual hair follicles for transplantation. The donor area is then sutured, leaving a linear scar.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE): In FUE, individual hair follicles are extracted directly from the donor area using a small punch tool. This technique avoids a linear scar but may result in tiny dot scars scattered across the donor area.

Both techniques have their advantages and considerations, and the choice depends on factors such as the patient’s preferences, hair characteristics, and the surgeon’s expertise.

It’s important to note that hair transplant surgery is a significant decision and should be thoroughly researched and discussed with a qualified hair transplant surgeon. They can evaluate your specific situation, explain the potential outcomes, and advise on the most suitable approach.
