Q: I
just starting to thin, when should l have my first
hair transplant?
A:
It is best to wait until at least twenty-five before considering hair
transplant surgery. It is best to wait until you have significant hair
loss that is a cosmetic problem. A hair transplant is not a hair loss
prevention treatment. Some hair loss in the temples is normal for a
person in their mid- to late 20s as this represents the progression to a
normal mature adult hairline.
Q: Can I get my original youthful hair density back with a hair
transplant?
A:
Hair transplant only “moves” (transplanted) rather than creates
new hair. A limited amount of hair from the donor area is
transplanted to a larger area in the front and top of the scalp.
To achieve around 1/3 to ½ of the original hair density in the
front part of the scalp, it takes at least two or more sessions.
Q: Will hair transplant surgery shock my health hair which will result in
the loss of my existing healthy hair?
A: In
general, only that has begun to decrease in diameter and is weak already
is shed after a hair transplant. Healthy hair is unlikely to shed, but if
it were to shed, it sh ould grow back.
Q: Can hair transplant surgery be performed into scar tissue?
A:
Yes, hair transplant can be done into a scar tissue and the hair
will grow in scar tissue, but not quite as well as in normal
tissue. The scar tissue is not as elastic as normal tissue and
the blood supply is less than in normal tissue, so that area
should not be transplanted as densely. Grafts do not grow
well in thickened scars
Q: Should I have a haircut prior to my hair transplant day?
A: For the hair
transplant surgeon it is easier to work with shorter cut hair in the area
to be transplanted. A skilled surgeon can work with short or long hair.
The
advantage of having a short haircut is that one has better visibility and
therefore the procedure moves along faster. When the amount of the grafts
is larger the normal session long hair may slow down the procedure. A
short close hair cut may not hide the “hide” the procedure for the
duration of healing.
Please note that a shaved head makes performing the hair transplant more
difficult. In a close or short haircut there is some existing hair, the
distribution and angle of the original hair is easy to discern and this
allows the new grafts to be placed in a direction that follows the
existing hair and in a distribution that complements that hair.
