Reclaim your Youth with Hair Replacement

With the amount of environmental pollution and stress rising steadily in an individual’s life dermatologists are laughing all the way to the banks with a steady rise in their incomes. Thanks to the various skin and hair problems that are becoming a pain in people’s lives. Though skin treatments can be easily treated over time thanks to laser therapies and medications, hair loss and frequent damage to the hair has always been a matter of concern. After a long research, scientists have finally found a lasting solution to the problem with hair replacement treatments.

Studies carried out by researchers and scientists have proved that an average person looses about one hundred strands of hair a day. Hair replacement treatments are an effective solution and can take care of up to 90% of the damage provided it is done at the right time. First off you need to have a detailed discussion with your surgeon regarding the reasons for hair loss. Contrary to popular opinion which attributes hair loss only to stress, pollution, and use of chemical substances in shampoos and coloring agents, the reasons can be many and varied. Factors such as ageing, hormonal imbalance, genetic disorders, poor blood circulation, dandruff, lice, depression, vitamin deficiency, pregnancy are all reasons for hair loss. If a timely check up is not done, the problem can increase drastically and result in permanent baldness.

Hair replacement treatments were a rare phenomenon earlier however now that its effectiveness was proved, it is one of the most used methods and is carried out by certified dermatologists individually or in collaboration with plastic surgeons.
The process though seems to be very simple, has a lot of factors that need to be taken into consideration.

The fist step is transplanting hair grafts from the donor’s hair scalp and planning or placing them on the client’s bald portion.

The factors that need to considered here are

1. hair color
2. texture of the hair
3. waviness of hair
4. curliness

Also, the donor’s should have a health growth of hair at the back of the head and the sides as these are the portions that serve as donor areas.

The common techniques used to get dramatic results with hair replacement treatments and surgery are;

1. Strip grafts
2. Mini grafts
3. Round grafts
4. Slit grafts
5. Punch grafts
6. Scalp and flap reduction
7. Tissue expansion

Now the amount of hair required for a single graft also has a lot of factors to be considered size of the graft and its shape. On an average 12 to 15 hair are required for a round shaped graft of an average size. Slit grafts require 4 to 10 hairs for each graft while micro-grafts need 1 to 2 hair strands. Usually the strip grafting technique are used as they employ thin, long grafts with an average of 30 to 40 grafts for the hair replacement treatment of an average person.
