subject: Hair Transplant In Pakistan [print this page] Hair transplant is one of the best innovations in the field of science to treat baldness. It does not only restore the physical appearance of a person and make it impressive rather it helps to get away from the disastrous psychological affects that are caused by hair loss on any personality. Hair is known to be the crowning glory and losing them could be very devastating and frustrating. In todays world it is very easy to deal with male pattern baldness which is the most common type of hair loss and it is permanent in its nature. The only solution for this kind of alopecia is hair transplant surgery. Hair transplant surgery is equally effective to treat female pattern baldness and the results are lasting and permanent.
Pattern of baldness in male is different than female. Male suffers the hair loss in the form of patches and normally the front and sides of the head are the most effective spots while female go through thinning of hair instead of complete bald patches. Whatever form of alopecia it is, people want to restore their natural hair at any cost because nothing else adds up to the looks of a person as much as hairs do.
Hair restorative surgery allows getting back your natural hair and there are two different techniques used to treat baldness. Follicle Unit Transplant is the classical method used to implant hair in the scalp. The procedure is done under local anesthesia to make it painless and it takes 4 to 6 hours depending upon the requirement of grafts of the patient. A strip of follicles is peeled from the back of the head which is known as the donor area and these hair are tend to reproduce the strongest and permanent hair after harvesting. Usually one follicle contains 1-4 hair. With a specially designed microscope these follicles are segregated from each other and planted to the bald area with expertise. Later the linear scar which is given in the donor area is closed with sutures and bandages. The bandages however are removed the following day of the surgery.
Follicular Unit Extraction is another latest technique that is introduced in Pakistan a couple of years ago and the high world class standards are followed by surgeons. This technique is very precise and highly aesthetic. It costs more than FUT due the long time it takes because in this method one follicle is removed at a time by making small punches around the follicle and replanted in the scalp. This method allows to extract hair grafts from any part of the body such as chest, back, legs, arms etc and it also helps in transplant of mustache, beard or eye brows. Surgery done by FUE technique is undetectable and 1500-2500 grafts can be restored in one session. This procedure is also done after injecting local anesthesia and it is totally a scar less and stitch less technique. This procedure takes 6 to 8 hours. A patient can carry on his/her activities the very next day of the treatment and there is no hospital stay is required in both procedures used for transplantation. In Pakistan there are some state of the art clinics in different cities with highly qualified and experienced surgeons who are doing this surgery on everyday basis with world class quality and highly successful rate.
