subject: The New Face Of Hair Replacement Uk [print this page] Hair replacement UK has come a long way in the last 10 years. At the end of the 20th century, booking hair replacement UK meant signing up for a long and painful operation that had no guarantee of success. Even if it was successful, ones hair replacement UK operation tended to leave one with a head of hair so obviously fake that one might as well have purchased a wig. Now, thankfully, a new technique is coming to the fore, which is making hair replacement UK a viable and relatively pain free operation.
This new technique for hair replacement UK involves the rather wonderfully named follicular transfer. Follicular transfer is exactly what it sounds like it should be the removal of one follicle at a time and insertion of it in the location where hair needs to be replaced. If it sounds slow and incredibly skilful, it is but its a lot less painful and dangerous than the old method of hair replacement UK, which involved slicing off strips of skin with the hair still in and grafting them onto bald patches.
Old style hair replacement UK had a horrible after-operation infection rate and was so involved and painful it was classified as invasive surgery. Anyone who has had any form of invasive surgery knows exactly why such an aggressive word is used to describe it. Invasive surgery, including the old style format for hair replacement UK, is and was intrusive and highly painful. New school hair replacement UK is such a mild operation, medically speaking, that the patient can often be released on the same day, and requires only a two week course of preventative antibiotics before they are as good as new.
New school hair replacement UK also gives results that look a lot more natural than the old strip farming method. With strip replacement, the hair and skin grafts looked plastic and wrong because the hair in them was growing in a way that would only have looked natural on the original location from whence it came. New style hair replacement UK actually identifies ideal donor follicles, using only those hairs that already grow in a similar direction to the hair that has been lost. As a result, when a new style hair replacement UK operation is conducted, the donor hair is implanted and starts growing in the same way the lost hair did which means it looks less like a wig and more like the real thing.
Modern hair replacement UK techniques are so successful that the body actually sheds the donor hair, leaving only a root. From this root, new hair grows in a very good approximation of its natural pattern. Its time consuming and not particularly cheap but then anyone wanting hair replacement UK is going to be more than willing to pay a price that makes it work properly. For the first time, patients wanting or needing hair replacement UK are getting real value for money hair that actually looks like it is supposed to be there.
