Why Choose Hair Transplant?

Hair Transplantation is a surgical procedure that has been developed to deal primarily with baldness. It works on the concept that follicles from the back of the scalp, also known as the safe donor area, are extracted and implanted at the recipient site. Hair transplant in India is particularly popular in men and is steadily gaining popularity in women as well.

It is primarily used on people suffering from major hair loss as well as for those suffering from a significant amount of hair thinning. The most common cause of baldness is genetics and an abnormal amount of the hormone DHT in the blood. DHT is an androgen that leads to the development of secondary sexual characters in men but sometimes, an abnormal increase in its levels can lead to balding. It can also be a cause of hair loss in women.  Transplants can also be especially done for cases of burns and injuries to the scalp.

Advantages of Hair Transplant:

·      The main advantage of this process is that it uses your own hair for the entire process. This means that the transplants are not rejected by your body and hence can grow easily.

·      Also, the colour of your hair does not need to be matched as in the case of wigs or weaves.

·      The hair starts to grow back normally after 2 to 3 months and there is full growth by 12 months.

·      It is a safe process. The results of hair transplant in the hands of a good surgeon are completely natural such that it becomes difficult for people to detect it.

·      There is no use of any chemicals or strong medicines in this process.

·      There is no need of any special care of the transplanted hair. You need to take a few precautions immediately after the transplant, but in the long term, there is no need for special products to be used on the transplanted hair. You can also colour your hair and use all the products that you were previously using.

·      It is a long term and a permanent solution for balding.

·      It helps you look younger and also helps you get back your confidence.

·      There is not much time required for healing. You can join work from the next day itself and go back to normal routine of your life.

Techniques of hair transplantation have advanced significantly over time. There are many techniques of conducting a hair transplant.

        ·         One of the popular methods is FUT (follicular unit transplant). In this technique a strip of skin is extracted from the back of the scalp, and the follicles are then divided into units which are then implanted into the recipient area. Some surgeons have developed advanced techniques to prevent the scar that develops in this method form being visible.

        ·      Another technique is known as FUE (Follicular unit extraction). It is a tedious method since single hair follicles are extracted and then implanted in the designated area. Small tiny dots are seen at the donor region in this process.
