According to MedlinePlus, androgenic alopecia can start thinning out a person’s hair as early as their teens and early 20s. More than 80% of men experience hair loss and nearly half of women experience the same thing throughout their lifetime (NYU Lagone). This adds up to hundreds of millions of people struggling with hair loss around the globe.

locks.

How effective is a hair transplant?

Sometimes referred to as hair transplant surgeries, hair transplant procedures, or hair restoration surgeries – hair transplants are often successful. The success rate is higher than both natural solutions and over-the-counter hair restoration products.

Still, it is important to get the facts right. With full transparency, hair restoration surgery is not a guaranteed solution. As a rule of thumb, anywhere from 10 to 80 percent of transplanted hair continues to grow. This applies to both regular and celebrity hair transplants.

All transplanted hair is guaranteed to grow, but the effectiveness varies based on a person’s genetics and other factors. Hair transplant success factors include:

Original cause of hair loss – Hair transplant surgery is mostly done with your existing hair. If you’ve lost head and body hair due to injuries, chemotherapy, medications, and other factors, hair restoration may not be for you. Those that are balding or thinning naturally are the best candidates for hair restoration surgery.

Condition of hair follicles – Those with dormant hair follicles (sacs that contain hair but no longer grow hair) are likely to have fewer successful hair transplants.

Quality of post hair transplant care – Following the aftercare instructions of your surgeon is important. It takes 8 to 14 days of proper after care to secure the hair grafts and start the healing process.

Most hair transplant patients will see noticeable results between six and nine months after the procedure. The results take twelve months to fully develop.

How long do hair transplants last?

For the ideal hair transplant candidate, the results should last a lifetime. There’s no need for them to be dancing on ice about their hair insecurities anymore! That’s because healthy hair follicles replace the inactive ones in thinning or bald areas. If kept healthy and away from damage, these new hair follicles last for years to come.

It is possible that your hair will start to thin again (as per the natural hair follicle aging process), but they will continue to produce at least some hair for the rest of your life.

As the hair of patients’ start to thin again, those who see good results may decide to get additional procedures done to fill out thinning patches of hair.

Which hair transplant method is most effective?

There are several hair transplant procedures, but the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique is the most effective. Individual hair follicles are moved from your skin to another part of your body (most often the scalp) where hair is thinner or absent. Compared to the traditional Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), FUE produces more natural hair, causes less damage, and helps to avoid that “hair plug” look.

At Cosmedica Clinic, two specialized versions of FUE are used. Each carries the benefits of FUE along with new and improved components.
