subject: Grafting And New Hair Transplants [print this page] With the constant advancement of science and the field of medicine, new techniques and procedures are discovered and developed each day to help make our lives better. These new methods are meant to cater to medical conditions life threatening or not. Among the newest method introduced to the public are those that are meant to help recover lost hair as a result of balding.
These are surgical procedures that aim to replenish your lost hair with that of your own. These are better known as new hair transplants where the hair to be replaced will not require any donor or synthetic hair. This technique implies that the hair that will cover the bald spot will come from a section of your head that is not prone to receding or balding. One procedure will require the surgeon to select a specific area often from the backside and graft it with precision use of a scalpel. The grafted strip of hair patch will be then implanted on to the area that needs replenishment. The area where the hair was grafted from will be surgically sealed either with the use of staples or sutures. Stitches may need to be manually removed or may be absorbed depending on the type that will be used.
Both areas will go through the same process of healing and recovery. The time may vary depending on the case and caution that is taken by the patient. Before you know it, the part where the hair was originally grafted will once more be able to grow and produce hair like it used to. In a few weeks, you will be able to have a full head of hair that is full of life and body. In a sense, it is like naturally growing your hair with a little help to position it. The cost for this surgical procedure varies from one provider to another. While some popular surgeons may charge more than the average, you can be assured of the service they provide. Adversely, there are great and credible surgeons that offer their services at the same rate that the competing market gives.
