What is a hair transplant?
A hair transplant is a surgical procedure where healthy hair follicles are moved from one part of your scalp to other areas experiencing thinning or baldness. This helps restore natural hair growth in those areas.
The process begins with a consultation to assess your hair loss and determine the best approach. The surgeon will then remove hair follicles from a donor area, typically the back of your head, and transplant them to the thinning or bald spots. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia which ensures minimal discomfort. After the transplant, the newly placed hair follicles will begin to grow, leading to a fuller head of hair over time.
Benefits & Features
A simple hair transplant provides many advantages. It helps people restore their natural, fuller hair and live with confidence.
Natural-Looking Results: The transplanted hair seamlessly matches your existing hair, creating a natural appearance.
Permanent Solution: The transplanted hair follicles grow naturally and continue to thrive, offering a lasting solution to hair loss.
Minimal Downtime: You can typically return to your normal activities just a few days after the procedure.
Boosted Confidence: Restoring your hair enhances your self-esteem and significantly improves your confidence.
How does hair transplant work?
There are two main techniques for hair transplantation: FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). Each method has its own process and advantages, and both aim to restore your hairline naturally and effectively. The image below provides a clear comparison of these techniques.
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)
01.
Strip Harvesting
The surgeon removes a thin strip of skin with hair follicles from the donor area at the back of the head.
02.
Strip silvering
The team dissects the strip under a microscope to isolate individual follicular units for transplantation.
03.
Grafts Dissection
They clean, prepare, and organize the follicular units to ensure their viability for implantation.
04.
Grafts Insertion
The surgeon implants the isolated follicular units into tiny incisions in the balding or thinning area, creating a natural-looking hairline.
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction)
01.
Punch Incision
A small, circular punch tool creates precise incisions around individual hair follicles in the donor area.
02.
Extraction
The follicles are extracted one by one with care to minimize damage to the surrounding tissue.
03.
Harvest Grafts
The extracted grafts are preserved and prepared for implantation into the recipient area.
04.
Implant Grafts
The surgeon precisely implants each graft into the balding area to achieve a natural and even hair density.
