Hair Transplant Techniques
Before you get a transplant, it is wise to learn about the various hair transplant techniques that are available – talk to an expert and understand which procedure will work best for you.
Hair loss has been around for a really long time, but methods of transplanting hair are actually a little more recent. While the very first hair transplant procedures were conducted in the 1890s, the modern methods were established in the 1930s and by the time we reached the 1960s, there was much that was happening in this domain.Today, a hair transplant is hardly considered a major surgery and a growing number of people are opting for it, to ensure they have their head of hair back. There are several reasons why people are opting for hair transplant and just some of them include:
- The results are permanent, because even though the transplanted hair will fall off, the hair that replaces it, will be like normal, natural hair.
- Given that your own hair is being used for the procedure, there is little you have to worry about.
- Transplanted hair can be treated like normal hair, which means you can cut, colour and style the way you like.
- Great solution for baldness
Hair Transplant Method
FUT or Strip Surgery
In this procedure, a strip of the scalp is removed and then hair grafts are removed from that piece. The area from where the strip has been removed will be closed using sutures or staples. The hair will be transplanted in such a way that when the regrowth happens the linear scar will get covered. This is normally the preferred method of hair transplant in cases, where a large recipient area needs to be covered. However, there are a few causes for concern with FUT, especially if the procedure has not been done by an experienced professional. The scar could be very visible, there could be infection in the stitches and there could be bleeding at the donor site.
FUE Hair Transplant
This is the more advanced version of hair transplant and only those with true experience attempt this, because of its complexity. The idea behind the procedure, though, is quite a simple one – with a suction-like method, individual grafts are removed from the scalp. There are no cuts involved, which means no sutures are required. This also means that there are no scars. However, this is a slightly more time-consuming method, which is why not a lot of doctors prefer it. This procedure is most suited in cases where only a small area needs to be covered with grafts or a lesser number of grafts are required. It is important to understand that hair transplant is not the only option for hair loss, because if the hair loss is minimal, then you could try other methods such as hair extensions and weaves.
