Hair
transplantation, also called hair transplant is surgical method of reversing hair loss and baldness.
There are different methods in use today by the medical hair
restoration field.
One hair transplant method is called "strip" method, or
"follicular unit" hair transplant. This transplant method is least
expensive method. Using this method the hair transplant
surgeon removes a strip piece of skin from the donor area with hair,
most likely the back of the head. Local anesthetic is used to
numb the areas. This strip of skin will be dissected by a technician
who carefully separate the hair roots. The strip is divided into follicular units, which are small
individual hair groupings of the hair & its root. In the bald area, hundreds to thousands
of small slits are cut and the individual hair groupings are placed
in them. The slits made by the doctor under magnification are
under .9mm made with proper depth and angle for best hair growth.
The donor area is then closed up with sutures, which are removed
about 10 days later. With this hair transplant expect to have a
thin linear
scar on the back of the head, which is covered by surrounding hair. Using the Strip method, the average size
is about 2.500 to 3.000 of hair grafts is transplanted in one
sitting.
Another hair transplant method is called "follicular unit
extraction" FUE in short. Here the hair transplant doctor
makes tiny incisions of 1mm or less
in the donor area of the scalp from which the follicular units
of hair are extracted and then implanted in balding areas.
No sutures are needed. With this hair transplant method expect to have a multiple very small scars at the donor area, back of the head or sides.
Most
virtually
disappear. FUE
differs from strip hair transplantation since no strip of skin is
used and no use of sutures are needed. Hair roots are directly
moved from one area to another. In average, only about 500 -
700 grafts are implanted in one sitting using FUE method.

With today’s hair transplant surgery you can expect natural
looking results and fuller hair density. A hair transplant
should look natural after the healing period so that even a hair
stylist should not detect it.
The key to hair
transplantation is the concept of donor area dominance. For most
people it is the back and sides of their heads where they still have
plenty of hair.
Where the grafts
are placed, how they are angled, and in what size combinations are
the critical elements to obtaining a good result. This is where the
training and experience of the doctor comes into play. Careful
attention to the shape of the patients face, the results the patient
wants to achieve, and even future hair loss are other factors a good
doctor considers when designing a custom surgical plan for the graft
placement.
Coarse, gray or
light-colored hair make better coverage than fine, dark-colored
hair.
 The important
consideration for any patient is to receive the natural coverage and
density desired within the budget allowed. The cost per graft will
depend on completion of evaluation if you are a good candidate for
hair transplants; what is a safe and effective range of the number
of grafts per procedure a patient can take. Many repeat the
procedure. Call for your FREE consultation with no-obligation to
