August 8, 2024

One of the biggest and most common concerns in today's time is that of the hair loss problem. Pollution in the environment and lifestyle changes are two of the reasons that are causing hair loss in both- men as well as women. With a rapid increase in the number of hair fall cases, people are looking forward to numerous hair treatments. One of them is hair transplantation which has seen some major advancements with the passing years. Let's spill the beans on this hair treatment and how it is proving a boon for many. 

 

When to go for Hair Transplantation?

If you are in the initial stages of hair loss and no other treatment seems to help, you might consider undergoing a hair transplantation surgery. Some people opt for this procedure when finasteride and minoxidil treatments don't work for them. Males and females suffering from androgenetic alopecia which is the most common hair loss pattern often look up to hair restorative procedures. Causes for hair loss may include but are not limited to genetics, hyperthyroidism, hereditary problems, stress, autoimmune diseases, and hypothyroidism. The presence of bald areas on your scalp can make your hair restoration procedures appear more worthless. 

 

Hair Transplantation Procedures

If you plan to take care of your hair loss problem in the early stages, you may notice the effectiveness of your hair transplantation procedure. 

Robotic Hair Restoration

Your surgeon will use robotic instruments to identify the best grafts and consequently, the best recipient sites to place the same. This new technique is very effective with hair growth occurring within as little as 3 months from the day of surgery. 

 

FUE 

Follicular Unit Extraction may consist of one or multiple sessions depending on the hair loss stage you are experiencing. The surgeon will remove 1-4 hair strands and use small needles to arrange the hair transplants in your original hair growth pattern. Hair reconstruction may happen after considerable sessions of a few thousand grafts. 

 

FUT

Also called as strip harvesting, Follicular unit transplant involves collecting strips of hair-bearing potential and relocating them to patchy areas of the scalp. The recovery period is around 10 days and patients who require regrafting in the majority of their scalp may need a few thousand of these strips.
