Hair Transplantation – Say Good Bye to Baldness

Damion RysonBaldness is often thought as a sign of old age, unattractiveness, and infertility in men. Although none of these may be true, this can be a cause of low self-esteem and low self-confidence. Permanent hair loss comes from hair follicles that become thinner and weaker. Male patterned baldness is scientifically called Androgenetic Alopecia, and is caused by genes, hormones, and age. Hair in the front and top of head are genetically susceptible to hormones, and thus may be lost. This is in contrast to the hair on the sides and back of scalp, which are genetically immune to hormones, and are thus destined to grow a lifetime.Follicular Unit Transplant (Hair Transplantation) has emerged as the most reliable procedure by which one can grow permanently growing, natural looking hair in the bald or thin area. The procedure involves transplantation of hair from the permanent zone in the back of the scalp into areas of the scalp where there is no hair growth. Follicular units are bundles of 1-4 hairs, growing together as a physiological unit. It needs to be both extracted and transplanted as an intact unit. This is a fundamental concept of Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation. The surgeon removes a small strip of hair-bearing area from the back of the scalp. This strip is then divided under magnification into individual follicular units. These follicles are then implanted into the bald areas- one hair at a time. Microscopically separated single haired follicular transplants helps to define the irregular hairline with the highest degree of precision so as to give the patient the most natural look. The success rate of follicular hair transplant is nearly 100% owing to the dissection under magnification. This surgery is also applicable for eyebrow, eyelash, beard, moustache etcThere is no additional care needed on the transplanted hair; just treat it like your ordinary hair, because it is your own hair! The transplanted hair will start to grow in 3 to 6 months, and will have the same strength, color, texture, length, and life span as your hair from your donor area.Within 6 months of the procedure, the transplanted hair can be groomed and combed in any fashion you like.The procedure involves transplantation of hair from the permanent zone in the back of the scalp into areas of the scalp where there is no hair growth.
