Hair Transplantation
What Is Hair Transplantation?
Hair transplantation refers to the surgical movement of transplanting the hair along with its roots from the back to an area of bald or balding scalp. It is a popular method for hair regrowth. Back hair is thicker and permanent in nature.Hair transplantation is an effective and permanent solution for hair loss. It is done in hair transplant centre.
How Does It Work?
In almost all cases of so-called “male-pattern baldness”, there is a permanent fringe of hair along the side and back of the scalp. This hair demonstrates “donor dominance”. This means it will grow permanently even if it is moved to an area which is bald or balding.
What Does The Procedure Involve?
Hair transplantation is done under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. Hair and follicles are removed from the “donor area” of permanent hair along the back and sides of the head. Two types of hair transplantation is done fut or fue.
The removed hair follicles are then divided into individual grafts of varying sizes. The smallest grafts contain 1-2 hairs and are often referred to as “follicular units” or “micrografts”. Larger minigrafts may contain up to 6 hairs and can provide more density per graft. Choice of number and type of graft is made taking into account the patient’s hair type, quality, color and the area to be transplanted. Once prepared the grafts (hair and its roots) are then inserted into the thin area.
It Is One’s Own Hair, And Just Like All Hair It Also Grows. It Can Be Washed, Curled, Cleaned, Permed And Styled As Desired. It Is Very Useful Method Of Hair Regrowth. Once The Transplants Are Completed, No Special Maintenance Is Required.
Our Approach To Hair Transplantation –
Hair transplantation at the Calcutta Aesthetic Surgery Clinic is approached as an important surgical procedure, in which the transplant recipient is viewed as a patient rather than a client. For these reasons, medical consultation and follow-up is always provided by the physician who will oversee the surgery, rather than a sales associate. The procedure itself is carried out by this physician with the assistance of experienced hair transplant technicians. In keeping with proper medical standards, the possible negatives of transplanting as well as realistic expectations, will be discussed with you prior to the surgery. For example, it is very important to consider the role of future hair loss in planning, and the possible need for more sessions to achieve desired density. It is our philosophy to provide you with medically sound and realistic information, not necessarily the most exciting or promising information.
