Hair Transplant

If you’re a victim of hair loss, here’s all you need to know about hair transplant treatments.

Hair Loss

What is Hair Transplant?

It’s a surgery to move your existing hair to your bald areas permanently.

Types of Hair Transplant

There are 2 types or methods of Hair Transplant:
• Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)
It involves cutting out a strip (6-10 inches) of your scalp from the back of your head and dissecting it into numerous grafts (500-2000). The cut is sewed up and hidden beneath hair.
• Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)
Here, your hair follicles are removed one by one from the back of your head (after shaving it) by cutting around them using a special machine. The region cures with small dots, covered by your present hair.
The remaining method is the same for both. The surgeon cleans the target area for transplantation and numbs it. He creates slits or holes there, and carefully transplants each graft in each hole.
As per the size of the target area, the procedure may take 4-8 hours.

Procedure of Hair Transplant at Skinalaya

Skinalaya performs FUT procedure of hair transplant. It’s an outpatient surgery which takes an entire day to transplant 1500-3000 grafts. The number of grafts required depends on the extent of hair loss, donor site on the scalp and the thickness of hair desired.

Hair Transplant for men

Conditions requiring hair transplant in men are:

  • Advanced male-pattern baldness
  • Traction alopecia
  • Scarring alopecia which stays for at least one year
  • Hair loss due to trauma, burns or surgery
  • Restoring eyebrows and eyelashes
  • Before the procedure, it’s evaluated whether the man is suited for the transplant.

    Hair Transplant for women

    Conditions requiring hair transplant in women are:

  • Advanced female-pattern baldness
  • Alopecia caused by plastic or cosmetic surgery, burns or trauma
  • Scarring alopecia
  • Traction alopecia
  • Alopecia marginalis
  • Restoring eyelashes and eyebrows
  • Before the treatment, the woman would be checked to be a suitable candidate.

    Benefits of Hair Transplant

    • Improves your appearance
    Hair transplant removes the disappointment of people regarding their appearance due to baldness. It improves their confidence and makes their appearance attractive.
    • Rids you of balding
    Only hair transplant can permanently do away with receding hairline and baldness. This is because, once the hair gets transplanted, they will never shed from the affected areas. Hair transplant has statistically very high success rates.
    • Requires low maintenance
    Hair transplant needs minimal maintenance on your affected areas after treatment. This is because your transplanted hair will act like regular hair. You don’t require any special shampoos or chemicals to maintain your hair density.
    • A permanent solution
    Some holistic methods and topical treatments may improve hair thinning to some extent. However, the hair transplant offers a wider scope of treatment for extreme hair loss and balding patches. Besides, it’s a permanent remedy with greater reliability.
    • Saves money
    Unlike other hair restoration methods, hair transplant is mostly a one-time procedure. Hence, you don’t need to spend money on any further treatments. This saves your money quite much.

    Reasons for Hair Transplant failure

    • Not being a suitable candidate
    Check if you’re an ideal candidate for the treatment before starting with it. Certain types of alopecia cannot be treated by hair transplants. So, the transplanted hair will keep shedding and, the treatment will fail.
    • Inexperienced surgeon
    Being more of an art, hair transplant requires the expertise of the surgeon and fails in the wrong hands. Look at the earlier and later pictures to see the swiftness and skill of the hands of your surgeon. Also, check his Google reviews from his earlier patients.
    • Choice of hospital
    If your chosen hospital doesn’t show the seal of approval from the government or international boards, or if the staff is dishonest or doesn’t properly follow the international medical guidelines, the hospital is likely unsafe for your treatment. It can raise risks of infection.
    • Inadequate post-surgery care
    Violating the after-care instructions may lead your treatment to fail. Scratching or improperly washing your treated area, or exposing it to the sun within the prescribed period, or avoiding exercises which cause sweating may affect the graft survival.

    Cost of Hair Transplant

    A hair transplant usually costs $4000-$15000 as per the amount of hair to be transplanted.

    Hair transplant is a surgical procedure aimed at restoring hair growth in areas affected by baldness or hair thinning. The procedure typically involves the extraction of hair follicles from a donor site (often the back or sides of the head) and their transplantation to the recipient site (balding or thinning areas). There are two primary methods of hair transplant: Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).

    During FUT, a strip of skin containing hair follicles is removed, and individual follicular units are dissected and transplanted. FUE involves extracting individual follicular units directly from the donor site without the need for a strip of skin.

    Hair Transplant Surgery Expectations and Recovery

    After a hair transplant, patients can expect the following:

    • Immediate Results: Some newly transplanted hair may fall out initially, but over several months, new hair growth will occur.
    • Recovery Time: Recovery varies, but most patients can return to work within a week. Full recovery may take a few weeks, and it's essential to follow post-operative care instructions.
    • Natural-Looking Results: With proper care, the transplanted hair should look natural, blending seamlessly with the existing hair.
    • Permanent Solution: Transplanted hair is typically permanent, making it a long-term solution for hair loss.
    • Post-Operative Care: Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities, direct sun exposure, and certain hair treatments during the initial recovery period.

    Hair Transplant Treatment Cost

    The cost of a hair transplant can vary based on several factors, including:

    • Method Used: FUT and FUE may have different costs, with FUE often being more expensive due to its precision and minimally invasive nature.
    • Number of Grafts: The more hair follicles transplanted, the higher the cost.
    • Clinic Reputation: Established clinics or those with renowned surgeons may charge higher fees.
    • Geographical Location: Costs can vary regionally, with urban areas generally having higher prices.

    On average, hair transplant costs in India range from INR 40,000 to INR 2,50,000 or more, depending on the factors mentioned. It is advisable to consult with reputable clinics and surgeons for personalized assessments and accurate cost estimates based on individual needs.

    FAQ

    1. How long does a hair transplant procedure take?

    The duration varies, but it typically takes several hours. The complexity, method used (FUT or FUE), and the number of grafts determine the time required.

    2. Is hair transplant a painful procedure?

    Local anesthesia is administered during the procedure, minimizing pain. Patients might experience mild discomfort during recovery, but pain is generally manageable.

    3. How soon can I expect to see results?

    Initial results may be visible in a few months, but full growth and density may take up to a year. Patience is essential for optimal outcomes.

    4. Are hair transplant results permanent?

    Yes, the transplanted hair is typically permanent. It should continue to grow naturally in its new location.

    5. What is the difference between FUT and FUE?

    FUT involves removing a strip of skin with hair follicles for transplantation, while FUE extracts individual follicular units directly. FUE is less invasive and leaves minimal scarring.

    6. How long is the recovery period after a hair transplant?

    Initial recovery takes about a week, but patients can resume normal activities after that. Full recovery, including the growth of transplanted hair, may take a few months.

    7. Are there any risks or side effects associated with a hair transplant?

    While complications are rare, potential risks include infection, bleeding, and scarring. Following post-operative care instructions is crucial to minimize risks.

    8. Can I undergo a hair transplant if I have existing medical conditions?

    It depends on the specific medical condition. A thorough consultation with the surgeon is necessary to assess individual suitability.

    9. How much does a hair transplant cost in Delhi?

    The cost varies based on factors such as the method used, the number of grafts, and clinic reputation. On average, it can range from INR 40,000 to INR 2,50,000 or more.

    10. Are there any age restrictions for a hair transplant?

    Hair transplants are generally suitable for adults, and candidacy depends more on factors like the pattern of hair loss and overall health than age.
