How Does Hair Transplant Work?

For reasons genetic and physiological, everyone not necessarily is blessed with fine tresses. But, we human kinds- have a common aversion towards baldness. Despite the lack lustre appeal of baldness, its inevitability in certain cases cannot be overruled. With baldness posing serious threats to your look and personality; a technologically oriented process of hair transplantation can help you let your hair down.

Introduction to Hair Transplant

A hair transplant is when hair follicles are moved from one area of a person’s body to another. Think of it as a hair relocation surgery. Follicles are moved from an area with hair – called the donor area – to an area without hair – the recipient area. Usually, the donor area is the back and sides of the head and the recipient area is the top of the head – the area that typically goes bald. The new hair isn’t ‘new’ at all; it’s just old hair in a new place. It’s real, natural, and grows like normal hair does. And because the hair follicles are taken from areas which are genetically resistant to hair loss, the newly implanted hair should last forever.

How the follicles are are extracted? FUT vs. FUE

Currently, there are two methods hair transplant surgeons use to extract hair follicles: Follicular UnitExtraction (FUE) and Strip Harvesting (sometimes referred to as FUT). With strip harvesting, an area (strip) of the scalp is taken from the donor area. The extracted strip is then divided into separate hair follicles which are transplanted into the recipient area. The donor area is stitched back together, but this can leave a distinctive scar.

With the FUE method, individual hair follicles are extracted one at a time. When performed by a skilled surgeon, scarring from an FUE hair transplant is virtually undetectable. 

The Benefits of Skin Transplant

With baldness playing a spoilsport and coming in the way of propriety- hair transplantation is pleasingly advantageous. With hair at your disposal, you can choose not having one out of place. Besides by means of this medically manoeuvred technique, you need not bank on any other forms of treatment for hair growth. The hair implanted or grafted will continue with its growth. The fact that you yourself are the donor is also one of its pros. Rather than going in for artificially driven mechanisms of hair systems, hair transplantation is far more cost-effective.

One of the scientific advantages of hair transplantation relates to its uniformity of distribution. The technique is worked upon with optimization in such a way that your overall follicular distribution remains intact.
