Those who are unfortunate enough to suffer the unfortunate effects of hair loss, they all clamor for that one cure that will remedy their problem for good. One treatment that has gained so much attention and yet so unattainable by many is a hair transplant surgery.

With this treatment process, hair grafts which are taken from a donor site which is usually at the back of the head, are carefully extracted and then strategically placed on the balding area. There are two approaches on how to go about this, and these are the FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) and FUE (Follicular Unite Extraction), though in some cases these two are used together.

So how can these guarantee permanent results? Some experts say that there isn’t really a hundred percent guarantee on the matter, however the longevity of the results are definitely worth the money you pay. To put it in numbers, a hair transplant can have a 95% success rate for years to come.

But the success of a hair transplant surgery doesn’t come in a silver platter. Under the best conditions, you also have to make some extra effort to make sure that your newly transplanted hair stays in place. You need to follow a good hair and scalp regimen to ensure that they are kept in tip top shape. Regular and thorough shampooing can help cleanse them from any bacteria which can also be a good cause for hair loss.

Taking some hair loss medications in conjunction with the surgery can also help prevent hair loss from further occurring in other parts of your head which might require additional surgery.

There are also cases where a person’s scalp may react negatively to transplants, even though these hairs are just his own. There are just rare instances where the head is producing too much DHT for hair growth to be made impossible. This is why we go back to how it is also beneficial to take hair loss medications which can help hinder DHT production.

Another case is that a person’s hair eventually thins out as he ages. This goes the same for both transplanted and donor hairs. So if you want, you can ask for an additional transplant, or get hair pieces such as toupees or weaves to make those locks look fuller and youthful. But sometimes, some may find it rather challenging to keep up with hair loss because of the strong genetic predisposition to hair loss.

There are also other effective procedures such as scalp reduction surgery where balding areas of your scalp are removed and then sutured together that to give a fuller head of hair. Or you can also opt for a scalp expansion surgery wherein a healthy and hairy area is inserted with a silicone gel to extend this portion of scalp.

But for whatever surgical treatment that you are planning on, it is important that you choose the best surgeon. It is their skill and expertise which would largely determine the success of your results. So to make sure that you don’t waste your money on haphazard evaluation and dishonest advice, better make sure that you look for a reputable surgeon.
