Is the hair transplantation’s outcome permanent and durable?

When any one lost his hairs, he feels truly depressed by hair loss must seek out the help of a mental health professional as soon as possible. When he goes for an expensive hair transplantation surgery, he thinks about the hair transplantation results. A patient always thinks that is hair transplantation surgery result’s permanent or not?

In male pattern hair loss called Androgenic alopecia is caused, initially, by diyhydrotestosterone (DHT) hormone. The thick hair follicles in the frontal scalp, mid-scalp, and vertex are susceptible to this hormone, and contact with DHT affects the follicles to dysfunction and stop producing hair. There are various hair follicles in the scalp, however, that are “extremely resistant” to DHT hormone and they fights with this hormone. These highly resistance hair follicles are located on the sides (sequential/parietal) and back (occipital) of the scalp. When transplanted, these follicles maintain their resistance to DHT hormone and do not shed the hairs or thin over the time – even when exposed to DHT in new areas of the scalp.


These follicles are continuously struggling with the DHT, but they are not totally immune and protected. This means, in assumption, they could still have a chance to shed if exposed to very high levels of DHT over an extended period of time. But, it is very rare condition in which transplanted hairs shed again. However, the thousands of victorious cases of hair transplantation surgery executed over the past 60 years confirmed the resistance and long lasting nature of the DHT resistant follicles.

What are the possible further factors, which can directly affect on the hair transplantation results?

Many individuals are suffering from hair loss dilemma. Those people, who afford the costly hair transplant surgery, will go for it. But there are factors are involved in the failed hair transplantation surgery, but there are two major causes of unsuccessful hair transplantation procedure are mentioned below;

Hair loss shock :

After hair transplantation treatment, you could experience a short-term hair loss due to the intensity of surgical treatment. This kind of post-surgical hair loss is not everlasting and all of the hair should come back within six months to one year.

Working with an unprofessional hair loss surgeon and/or using older hair transplant methods:

You should keep this thing in your mind that hair transplantation is a medical procedure. And it is very costly and crucial real surgery. Transplanting the hair follicles is a tough procedure requiring huge skill, knowledge, and advanced hair transplant technology.  Working with an unprofessional surgeon and/or using the improper surgical tools and techniques can lead to a poor hair transplant result or one that will not last.


In addition, current scientific understanding of hair loss together with advanced taking out and transplantation technologies has created an excellent, almost perfect, hair loss solution.  Well performed hair transplants produce extremely natural looking results that are almost not possible to distinguish.  Only a medically educated and qualified surgeon can recognize those risk factors that could prevent you from any negative side effects and give you a lasting and high quality hair transplant result.

Does the donor or recipient experience any critical scalp scars, swelling, or irritation after hair transplantation?

Yes, the donor or recipient both experiences these problems in fact the majority people experience swelling of their scalp after surgical treatment and it frequently includes the forehead and sometimes even the eyes. But it is short-term condition, and usually settles in a few days.

 Sometimes the surgeon will recommend something to reduce the swelling. You may also bear itching problem because it is somewhat common after hair transplant, and it can be ruthless or sever. Itching is normally due to scab development, and you could have a thousand or more small and tiny scabs. 

Majority of the transplant surgeons say that shampooing should assist the itching problem. If you are going for a hair transplant so, you might inquire your surgeon if it’s acceptable to utilize the moisturized oil, anti-itch creams, or lotions on your scalp. In the severe itching condition medicated moisturizing oil may assist with the itching. Donor will also experience itching problem but it can be reduced after some time.

Now comes to scarring problem, it occurs only with the strip hair transplantation. Several people have a genetic inclination toward extreme scarring. Keloid scars can be nasty and horrified, especially if you wear your hair short. In many cases, people will have scars from prior transplant surgical methods. It can be hide and altered by a plastic surgeon, and he will transplant the hairs into the scarred area to hide it further.


Does a hair transplantation is safe for scalp or not?

Yes, off course because the hair transplantation is safe and very secure process and it has absolutely no side effects. So the recipients and donor scalps are secure from any harmful and notorious after effects. There are two major different hair transplantation methods, which are used on scalp during surgery. These methods are depending on your scalp criteria but m=both procedures are free from any hazard.


•    Flap surgery:  This method has been performed for more than two decades. This is most effective method for scalp and it can cover an extensive bald area and is modified to suit the needs of each patient.  The size and arrangement of the flap depend upon the aims and wishes of the patient and each of the flaps can work with more than 350 grafts.  

•    Scalp reduction:  This method is recently introduced by the help of technologies for the prevention of bruises on scalp and it is also called “advancement flap surgery. In this surgery the selected parts of scalp are filled with donor grafts and cover the baldness spots.  This technology is used for balding spots at the top and back of the head and is not used for covering a frontal hairline.

Hair replacement surgical treatment does not create any long-lasting side effects. 

In the majority cases, the hairs fall out of the grafts instantly after hair transplant without any scars or irritation but may be you have to wait for about three months for regrow your hairs. The donor scalps sites gradually cure to leave slight scarring but this is concealed by “lifetime” hair growing around the site.

Mini Micrografting 
It is very much like the FUE method. In this process you will undergo a surgery in which your doctor will use the multi blade knife (common with these procedures); he will cut very thin strips of tissues from your scalp. These strips are cut into smaller sections. This process will be done under the naked eye, and your surgeon will be guessing the size of these tissues. Your surgery will be quick and you will not need many sessions. The staff will be small and it is cheaper than the rest of the procedures. But you will take your time to heal.
FUE
FUE is most commonly known as Follicular Unit Extraction. This is one of the best hair restoration techniques. The good thing about this technique is that you will not need anyincision at all. During this procedure your follicles are harvest from your own donor area, the doctor will use a puck to take your tissue and you will have only a very small mark. The punch will take a circle out of your head and use it on your bald patches.

Non receded temporal peak is an average 1.5 cm higher than the eyebrow. From temporal peak temporal hairline extend down and backward at 45 to 60 degree angle and continue with the sideburns. Temporalhairline also recedes in hair loss. Temporal hairline recedes backward in Class 2-4 hair loss.

Connect the receded temporal hair line to this point. To restore the temporal peaks, first try to find the traces of temporal peak, and restore it. If there is no trace of temporal peak, mark the new temporal peak .The average height of temporal peak from Frankfort horizontal line is 4.5 cm or 1.5 cm above the eyebrow level. Mark outer canthal line. Draw another vertical line parallel to the outer canthal line 1.5 cm behind it. Draw a horizontal line parallel to frankfort line at an average 4.5 cm height , Where this line intersect the vertical line behind the outer canthal line mark this point , it’s  the apex of temporal peak .
