Many factors are responsible for hair loss like, Genetic, environment, lifestyle, stress, hormone, any chronic or long term disease, diet, age etc. The Hormonal condition known as ‘Male pattern baldness’ For this let us understand the anatomy of the ‘Hair’
Baldness is a medical condition that affects some 25% of men in their 20’s and an astounding 2/3 of all men after the age of 60. Male-pattern baldness does not have any intrinsic side effect aside from hair loss so many consider it a cosmetic medical condition, but for those who suffer from it, its effects it can be devastating with social and psychological consequences. Male-pattern baldness is a result of a gene in the body that converts large quantities of testosterone into DHT (di-hydrotestosterone). Hair loss occurs to some extent in 60-70% of all men. This balding process is caused by hereditary factors. You inherit the tendency to lose hair from either of your parents. This is transmitted in your genes. You may even have this tendency despite the fact that your parents have full heads of hair – this is due to a process known as spontaneous mutation, whereby the genetic information changes at conception.
Hair transplant is extraction of hair along with its root from the donor area (Back side of the head from ear to ear) ad implanting it in the region of the baldness. The transplanted hair maintains its own characteristics; color, texture, growth rate, and curl, after transplantation and re-growth.
Yes. Hair Transplantation works! In our skilled and experience hand with proven track record, over 95% of transplanted grafts will grow. The grafted hair is maintained by the scalp’s rich vascular supply. The transplanted hair maintains its color, texture, growth rate and curl and you can color, cut, shave and style it just like your own natural hair. In the past, punch grafts enables the transfer of 15 – 20 follicular units resulting in unnatural ‘pluggy’ looking results. Through the years, there has been much improvement and refinement in hair transplantation that today, the use of single follicular unit grafts placed very close to each other with special implanters gives unbelievable naturalness and good results.
The hair is usually present in groups of 1 to 6. The entire unit of hair along with its root is know as graft of follicular unit.
Number of grafts required for hair transplantation depends on three main factors.
