For those unfortunate to get a poor hair transplant outcome, it might help to know that this can be repaired through hair transplant revisions. If your implants are looking like that of a doll’s hair, are facing in all the wrong directions, or you might be fashioned with a hairline that is too high or too low for your profile then chances are you just get less than what you paid for from your previous hair transplant procedure. However, there is a silver lining to this dilemma, and it’s the chance for a revision.

But before you immediately skip your way to the hair surgeon’s office for that fix, you need to do a bit of homework to make sure that this time will turn out positively for you.

The first and most important factor that you have to address is to look for the right surgeon who can perform the revision. Since hair transplant revision is more difficult to do, it would take a skilled and experienced surgeon to perform it successfully. Procedures like this takes more time, good judgment and careful manipulation to ensure that no more hairs are wasted. So to make sure that your surgeon has all those requirements it is necessary that you check his educational background, training and past works particularly in hair transplant revisions.

Surgeons would often reuse the implanted hair grafts by taking extra care in extracting and preserving its integrity and viability. Aside from that, he should also have the good aesthetic judgment should he find it necessary to use more hair grafts to fix or conceal a bad previous procedure. This is because additional scarring might be necessary if ever he uses the strip method. He must also know how to maximize the limited resources because your donor hair is also very limited.

You also need to check the reputation of prospective clinics. Be sure that they are fully equipped and that they also have a good team of hair specialists specially trained to properly handle the delicate hair grafts. It has long been a problem that the field of surgical hair restoration is not closely monitored from less competent surgeons and hair specialist; therefore you are at a risk of getting poor results. So make sure that you weed out the posers from the real experts. Ask around or search the net, it always pays to do the extra legwork.

As mentioned before, a hair transplant revision can be more challenging to perform than the typical hair transplant. And for that it is expected that the hair transplant revision cost will be more expensive. You need to be financially prepared because most of the time this will take more work and in some cases more than one session to finish. But you can get help from financing options offered by some hair transplant clinics.

Before going for another invasive hair transplant yet again, be sure that all is very much prepared. Ideally there shouldn’t be any room for mistakes when it comes to hair transplant because you are dealing with very limited hair grafts. So for this second chance to get it right you have to be more careful on whom to trust your hair with.
