Hair Transplant in Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, India – What Factors Determine Hair Transplant a success?

Hair transplant gives you the ultimate and permanent solution of baldness. The result of hair transplant looks natural and risk involved is minimal. Maintenance after hair transplant is also not very expensive. But the most crucial factor that creates doubt in mind of potential hair transplant candidate is-whether my transplant story will be a success or failure?

There are many factors which play crucial roles in ultimate result after hair transplant. They are-

1. Choosing a Right Doctor-

Without saying this is the most important factor in success rate of hair transplant. Like in any field of medicine, a well qualified and experienced hair transplant surgeon will definitely give much better result. Every case of baldness is different and so experience of surgeon plays a huge role. An unqualified doctor will also have unqualified team which may not only spoil your hair transplant but also create some unwanted complications.

2. Diagnosing the Cause of Hair Loss Correctly

In about 90% men the cause of baldness is male pattern hair loss. In this condition, hair are lost under the influence of male hormones. The hairs on the back side of our head are generally not affected by these male hormones. So they are called permanent hair. These hair, when transplanted in balding areas, will grow naturally. But in other conditions of hair loss in men, all hair are equally affected and there is no permanent zone. So if these hair follicles are transplanted, they will either not grow or fall off shortly. Also some individuals with male pattern hair loss also have other associate conditions like thyroid problems, alopecia areata, psoriasis or they are taking some medications like steroids which also contribute in their hair loss. These are not good candidates for hair transplant unless these associated problems are treated or brought under control.

3. Proper Donor Area Assessment

A qualified and experienced hair transplant surgeon will always assess donor area carefully. It is paramount important to see that there is no thinning in donor area and it is not affected by andogenic alopecia (male pattern baldness). If thinning is observed in donor area, it means hair from donor area are also affected by hormones and they can be lost after hair transplant. So the result of transplant will unlikely to be long lasting.

4. Donor and Recipient Area Mismatch

The most limiting factor in hair transplant is the availability of adequate number of hair follicles in donor area. If expected numbers of grafts are not available in donor area, then during transplant one has to compromise on either density or area covered with transplant. In both these cases ultimate result will be suboptimal. One should always be realistic with his expectation and should discuss with transplant surgeon about the donor area availability and possible area covered with good density. There is nothing like ‘unlimited numbers of grafts’ as available grafts in any individual’s donor area is logically limited.

5. Choosing Proper Technique

There are basically two techniques of hair transplant-FUT, also known as ‘strip method’ and FUE. All over the world some surgeons prefer FUT while some prefer FUE. FUE is technically simple and less demanding for surgeon as well as for patient. As Restore Aesthetic clinic we also prefer FUE over FUT whenever possible. But it is not always correct. A good hair transplant surgeon should be well trained in both FUE & FUT. Not one technique is suitable for all patients. One has to consider area of balding, number of grafts required, adequacy of donor area, person’s age and likely future balding, pattern of balding in family etc before deciding proper hair transplant method.

6. Keeping Regular Follow Up with Your Surgeon

Success of hair transplant needs a lot of commitment from patient side. After the procedure one must follow all post procedure instructions strictly. Take all medications advised by your surgeon regularly. Visit your surgeon as per schedule so he can keep vigil on progress.
