What is Hair Transplantation?

Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure used to move skin containing hair follicles from one part of the body (donor site) to the bald or balding parts (recipient site). Hair transplants are primarily used to treat hair loss in men and women, as well as restoring eyelashes, eyebrows, and other facial hair.

 

Medical Procedure: Hair Transplantation

Common Name: Hair Transplant, Hair Restoration, Hair Replacement Surgery

 

A Good Candidate for Hair Transplantation

Each person that wants to undergo hair transplant surgery typically concludes a different case. All hair transplants are not the same and the density of the donor area is what determines the grafts available for a hair transplant. The average number of hair follicles determines the number of hair available. The color and contrast of your skin will be the determining factor on the impression of density. An important aspect is the average diameter of your hair, as well as the hair texture: curly or straight.

 

Hair Transplantation Procedure

There are two different options that can be used for a successful hair transplant. The two methods are Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT). The two procedures are similar with the major difference affecting the way the follicles are extracted.

 

In Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), the follicular units are extracted directly from the scalp, whereas in Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), a strip of the scalp is removed and the follicles are extracted.

 

The hair transplant option that most suitable for individual patients suffering from hair loss will be determined by hair-loss tests that are analyzed by the cosmetic surgeon.

 

Average Procedure length: Hair transplant surgery can take anywhere from 2 to 9 hours depending on the grafts that are harvested and implanted. Hair transplant surgery does not require any overnight hospitalization.

 

Risks and Side Effects of Hair Transplantation

As with any surgery, risks and side effects can occur. With hair transplants, infections or any other significant side effects are rare. However, infections are easily treated with antibiotics and pain medicine which can be prescribed by your surgeon.

 

Recovery from Hair Transplantation

Depending on the method used, bandages may or may not be used. If bandages are employed, they are normally removed approximately 1 day after the surgery. When the FUT method is used, stitches will remain in place for about a week. Generally, surgeons will allow patients to gently wash hair 2 days after surgery. Many cosmetic surgeons recommend that patients wait at least 3 weeks to perform any strenuous activity or exercise.

 

Generally patients are very comfortable during and after their hair transplant procedure; occasionally a patient may have little pain as with any surgical procedure. Local anesthetics are used during the procedure and your doctor will supply you with medication if necessary for recovery. However, many patients normally do not need any medication after their hair transplantation.

 

Most hair transplant patients can return to work the next day.

 

Results of Hair Transplantation

A vast majority of patients enjoy lifetime results of hair transplant surgery. Because the hair used in the donor area is not sensitive to the balding process, it will be permanent. The hair continues to retain genetic characteristics after the relocation.
