| Surgical Procedure |
|
 We use the micrograft and minigraft megasession for the treatment of male pattern baldness. Micrograft means grafts with one or two hairs, minigrafts are those with three or four hairs, and a megasession is a procedure in which more than thousand micrografts and minigrafts are inserted in a single session. Natural and aesthetically pleasing results without visible scarring are usually achieved with this technique in one session. Even though the hair density achieved in a single megasession is limited, there is a high level of patient satisfaction. The procedure may be repeated for additional density. |
|
|
| Duration of Operation |
|
Four to six hours. |
|
|
| Risks and Complications |
|
An infection or disorder of your scalp skin must be treated before hair grafting or it will interfere with the healing of your grafts. Such disorders include psoriasis, eczema, seborrhea (dandruff), and acne in and around the scalp. An underlying illness, such as diabetes or lowered immune resistance, increases your risk of infection, poor healing, and poor growth of the grafted hair. |
|
|
| After Care |
|
After six months the graft might start shedding, but will begin growing again.. |
|
|
| Recovery |
|
During the process of recovery, your scalp will ache and throb where the surgery was done. You may need prescription narcotic pain killers or over-the-counter acetaminophen (Tylenol). |
|
|
| Results |
|
You may need a surgical "touch-up" procedure to create more natural-looking results after your incisions have healed. Sometimes, this involves blending, a filling-in of the hairline using a combination of mini-grafts, micro-grafts, or slit grafts. |
|
|

|
|

|

|
|

|
|
| Post Operative Care |
|
Your scalp will be sore for a least a day. For some people, the discomfort lasts several days. You can carefully rinse but not vigorously wash your hair for the first ten days. If you are not careful, the grafts may become dislodged, bleed, and fail to grow new hair. You may brush or comb your hair where your surgery wasn't done. Also you can use a gentle blow dryer on a cool setting to dry your hair. |

| FAQ : Surgical Procedure |
|
| What is Hair Transplant? |
| A hair transplant is a process by which hair is removed from the back of the scalp and placed in other areas of the scalp, for example, the hairline or in other less dense areas. |
|
|
| Is it dangerous? |
| No. It is minor surface surgery, literally only skin deep, and one of the safest surgical procedures ever performed. You are under the care of qualified medical staff at all times. Your transplant takes place (using equipment kept to hospital standards) in a private office. |
|
|
| FAQ : Result |
|
| Will the new hair grow? |
| The new hair will grow naturally. This is your own hair which is taken from a part of the scalp which is genetically programmed to grow as opposed to the hair in the balding areas or in the hairline which is genetically programmed to fall out. |
| Will people notice my hair transplant? |
| NO. Years ago large grafts (plugs) were used and a corn cob appearance was often obtained. We are trained using a micro graft and a mini graft method, which simply means, one to four hairs in each graft. This procedure makes the hairline much more natural in appearance. |
