It is estimated that we lose on average between 100 and 150 hairs daily, in this case, hair loss yes it is normal,yes it is normal, due to the different phases of the hair on the scalp, we find that some hairs are in growth, others in transition and others have to fall out,in the case of hair loss In a larger amount, it is recommended to consult a specialist to diagnose the cause of the hair loss.

There are different causes that influencehair loss, among them we can find physical or emotional stress, poor diet, excessive use of hair dryer and even the consumption of some medications.

However, the most important cause for the occurrence of the hair loss is androgenetic alopecia, this type of alopecia is hormonal and hereditary, occurs in a higher percentage in men and is characterized by a weakening of the hair follicle leading to the production of thinner, weaker and more prone to fall out hair.

Although 65% of men are prone to suffer from androgenetic alopecia, there are also 20% of women who suffer from it throughout their lives, which is why women are also candidates for hair transplants.

As we say in the video:“It is best to wait until thehair losshas stabilized”, in order to avoid hair lossin other areas where alopecia has not yet occurred.

Before answering this question, since each person and each case is different, it is necessary to perform an assessment to determine the cause of the alopecia, another important factor is that thehair loss has already stabilized.

It is necessary to highlight the importance of the good condition of the hair donor area for the hair implant, the patient must have a good hair density in this area since this is where the hair follicles will be extracted for subsequent implantation in the affected area.

The step by step in the realization of ahair implantis as follows:

Valuation

This is the first step before ahair transplant is performed, since it is the stage in which the cause of the alopecia is diagnosed in order to establish an accurate diagnosis and an action plan to solve the problem.

Design

At this stage the desired post-implantation design is proposed by the patient according to the number of hairs to be implanted and the desired hair density, this is the main reason why a certified specialist whose experience leads to better results should be used.

Extraction

Localized anesthesia is applied to begin the extraction of hair follicles from the donor area with the best hair density previously defined in the evaluation and design stages.

Ranking

The extracted hair follicles undergo a classification stage by the specialist for subsequent implantation in the area affected by alopecia, in order to evaluate the condition of the follicles and choose the ones that are in the best condition for subsequent implantation.

Micro Implantation

The hair follicles extracted from the donor area are implanted one by one in the recipient area of the patient who was affected by alopecia.

Hair ImplantResults

After thehair transplant, since it is an outpatient procedure, the patient will be able to resume daily activities as normal.

The FUE technique ofhair restorationis the most important technique for the realization of a hair transplant and receives its name from its acronym in English, which translates as Follicular Unit Extraction.

The FUE technique consists of the extraction of hair folliclesin the hair donor area of the patient that is not affected by alopecia, for subsequent implantation in the affected scalp area.

Sincehair implantation is a minimally invasive procedure, it requires the application of local anesthesia, so the implantation is not painful for the patient.

However, although a hair implantis not a painful procedure, the patient will feel a slight discomfort in the scalp just in the area where the extraction of hair follicles and subsequent implantation is being performed.

This discomfort is completely tolerable for the patient, thus, a hair implantdoes not hurt during its realization or during the postoperative process.

During the first two stages prior to thehair implantation, that is, during the evaluation and the design stage, the number of hairs to be implanted will be evaluated according to the density desired by the patient and the design that will be used after implantation.

Since thehair growthwill be a product of the hair follicles that were implanted in the area affected by baldness, the implant will not be noticeable and the hair will look completely natural as it grows.

It is not possible to perform ahair transplant from another person, in this way it is avoided that there is rejection by the recipient’s body or the appearance of diseases over time.

For this reason, in order to perform ahair transplant, the donor and recipient of hair and hair follicles must be the same person.

Transplantinghair from another part of the body is also not possible since the growth cycle of the hair on the different parts of the body is not the same as that of the hair, and therefore will not give an aesthetic or natural look to the final result.

Since thehair transplantis an outpatient procedure, the patient will be able to continue with his or her routine as normal.

After the session the patient may feel a slight discomfort (nothing painful) in the scalp that night, in the following days should avoid any contact with that area and apply basic care for cleaning.

Avoidance of physical exercise, exposure to the sun, washing the head according to the specialist’s instructions, among other cares, will be part of the postoperative care of the hair implant patient.
