Hair Transplant

The surgical technique that removes hair follicles from one part of the body, to a balding part of the body. Primarily used to treat male pattern baldness, this involves harvesting hair roots from the permanent zone of the scalp, beard and body which are then implanted on the bald area. The implanted roots grow into adult hair within 6-12 months.

 

Types of Hair Transplant

Follicular Unit Strip Surgery (FUSS)

A strip of hair from the donor region is taken and implanted on the balding area, followed by sutures to close the donor area. This procedure is best for average to extreme balding cases since it allows several grafts to be transplanted in a single session, and also take several days to heal.

Scalp Reduction

A rare and more expensive method, The bald area is surgically removed and the hair-bearing scalp is stretched to replace the same.
