Hair Transplant - Latest Techniques


Hair transplant is a very fine surgery primarily used to rectify male pattern baldness, whereby grafting hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding to the already bald scalp. However, it is also used to restore eyelashes, eyebrows, and beard hair. They are ones own natural hair and grow for the rest of ones life as their other normal hair. The transplanted hair require cutting just like ones other normal hair. More males and females can benefit from it.

Transplant can be called a treatment for Hair loss that can not be treated with any other Hair loss treatment like medicines or medicinal lotions.

The latest techniques of micro hair transplantation include single and follicular unit hair transplant, follicular unit extraction ( FUE ), or a combination of these techniques as required by the patient. In hair transplant surgery, hair is taken out from the back of patients head (scalp) and planted on the front balding part of the head or on any other body part where hair is needed. Only local anesthesia is used so that one doesn't feel any pain. Hospitalization is not required. Patient can resume his routine daily activities immediately after the transplantation.

The equipment used during the surgery is of the prime importance as this enhances the surgeon's ability to perform highest quality transplant. Surgery usually takes around 5-7 hours. Some of the transplanted hairs fall within the first three weeks and then they start to grow in three months and continue to grow for the rest of life.
