Hair Transplantation


All about Hair Transplantation

If you are balding, hair transplantation offers you a permanent solution. Hair transplantation refers to relocating hair follicles from the back of your head to balding areas. This is an effective way of dealing with baldness because the hair follicles removed from the back resist baldness. When the procedure is carried out in the right way, it appears natural and this is better than a wig or hair piece.


It takes a few hours to complete the procedure and the surgery can be done on an outpatient basis. The results of the procedure will depend on the hospital. During the procedure, you get a local anesthesia in the areas where the hair follicles are being removed and transplanted. After the surgery, you will get some soreness and numbness but this will ease after a few days.

The number of grafts you require for the hair transplantation procedure is determined by your hair loss and how full you want your hair to appear after the surgery. The procedure is now less incisive and this means that you will take a shorter period to heal. Most people feel better after a day or two.

It takes about 3 or 5 months for the hair to start growing on the areas where the hair follicles have been transplanted. The hair is usually thin when it first appears but it will become fuller after some time. You will have a full hair in about a year after the transplant.

When you decide to have a hair transplantation procedure, you need to choose a surgeon carefully. Make sure the doctor you use has the required experience to get good results. You can ask the doctor to give you references on some of the patients he has operated on before to determine if their service is suitable for your problem.
