Special Considerations in Hair Transplants

Hair loss can be a menacing problem, especially for women and younger people. Proven options for treatment are varied from medications, to hair restoration surgery, to wigs.

Recent advances in technique have made the procedure nearly painless and able to produce very natural results. Coming technology promises even better results if we are able to successfully clone human hair.

When considering a hair transplant several things should be taken into account.

Am I too young for a hair transplant?

There is no optimal age for a hair transplant. If people are experiencing balding, hair transplants can be a good option. The key to remember is that balding will continue even though the transplanted hair will remain. This is important for two reasons. First, steps should be taken to slow down the loss rate as much as possible. Second, care must be taken in the design of the transplant to optimize the hair being used. If attention is simply paid to the area of hair loss without taking into account future hair loss, the transplant will not look natural in the not too distant future. And remember, once the donor hair is used up, it cannot be regenerated.

Are hair transplants appropriate in women?

Absolutely. Women can have just as a good a result as men with hair transplants. It is important to be treated by a doctor with experience in treating hair transplant london hair loss, not just transplantation. Women tend to suffer from more medical conditions which can cause hair loss. It is very important to determine if there is a medical condition causing the hair loss and treating that condition before proceeding with a transplant.

Will I look like I have plugs in my head after my transplant?

With new techniques in hair transplantation, the old days of hair plugs are long gone. The hairline created with today’s techniques are very natural and even your hair stylist will not know you had a transplant when done by a reputable surgeon.

How long will my transplant last?

The transplanted hairs will not fall subject to regular male or female pattern balding. The natural balding will continue, however. Again, this is important to remember when planning a hair transplant so that the donor site can be conserved and a natural hairline can be created for a lifetime, not just the next few years.
