Best things you should know about Hair Restoration Surgery
The first thing for you to figure out is that if you are a candidate for Hair Restoration Surgery. This type of surgery while it can make you look a lot better it might not give you the same head of hair you had when you were younger.
All hair restoration surgeries use your existing hair. That's why use must have a good crop of hair on the sides and the back of your head. This is where your hair will come from to start new growth to cover your baldness.
If you are not completely bald and need only patches of baldness covered you would probably receive a mini or macro graft. If your baldness covers a larger area you may require what is called a tissue expansion or a scalp reduction procedure.
Let's take a look at some of the factors you should consider before you commit to a hair loss transplant surgery:
Pain: With the advent of macro and mini implants and new techniques the pain associated with this surgery is not near what it was with the old implant procedures.
Although you will experience several days where your head is feeling uncomfortable but you will have a good supply of pain pills to deal with it. Assuming there are no complications you will be back to normal before you know it.
Side effects: the main side effect as with any surgery is the risk of infection and bleeding. You will be taking antibiotics for a few days to head off any chance of infection. Another side effect can be in some cases very unsightly scarring around the implants. If you have known someone who has experienced this if you're like me they looked better before the surgery.
Other factors to consider:
Sometimes the growth of new hair can look not natural. It can actually appear entirely different from your original hair.
Some men are happy that the transplant gave them a full head of hair. But years later they are stunned when their hair started disappearing again.
While the hair transplants should last a lifetime the original hair that was located around the transplants can continue with the original male pattern baldness progression. This may require additional transplants through the years.
