An increasing number of men are struggling with androgenetic alopecia, and they are looking for various methods of hair thickening, but unfortunately none of them are proving effective. A truly effective method that is becoming increasingly popular is hair transplantation. It offers a chance to regain a beautiful hairstyle and cover up what many men find disturbing in their daily lives. As we age, the hair growth cycle degrades until eventually the hair follicles die leading to hair loss which ultimately ends in baldness.
Why opt for a hair transplant?
After transplantation, the hair follicles are nourished by blood vessels and stimulated to create new hair. The area with patchy hair or affected by baldness is gradually covered with hair and the hairstyle thickens. Hair transplantation is a method that helps people who are balding and who have lost their hair due to burns or injuries. It mainly involves taking hair follicles from the back of the head and placing them in those areas on the head affected by baldness. There are various methods and techniques of transplantation, the final thing that matters to the patient is the effectiveness of the procedures, which is due to the use of modern solutions and a fully individual approach.
Hair transplantation at the OT.CO Clinic is a procedure during which we try to make the patient as comfortable as possible, we reduce pain by using local anesthesia, causing the patient to feel safe and not to be afraid of the procedure. The duration of the procedure varies and the main determinant of its duration is the individual approach to the patient, that is, for example, the scale of the problem with which he appeared in the clinic. To begin with, it is necessary to investigate why the hair loss problem occurred. In order to prevent further loss, it is necessary to go to the doctor and perform all the necessary tests. You can use preparations that dilate the vessels of the hair follicles and thus nourish them. It is a good idea to ask the doctor about the set of tests that should be performed before proceeding.
- Blood morphology
- Liver tests
- Blood glucose levels
- Hepatitis C test
These are just a few of the basic parameters to be checked. The procedure is safe and infections are rare, which is why it is recommended by specialists. First of all, people suffering from:
- androgenetic alopecia,
- post-traumatic alopecia,
- hair loss for another reason – e.g. due to illness, injury
Hair transplantation in men using the FUE method as we mentioned is a procedure performed under local anesthesia. The doctor takes care of the patient's safety and comfort during the procedure. It is possible to listen to music during hair transplantation. FUE hair transplantation in men involves taking hair follicles one at a time along with about a millimeter of tissue that surrounds them. The procedure is performed with special hybrid drills used to retrieve the material, while sapphire blades are used to make the holes. The doctor takes the follicles and then "injects" them into the treatment zone. The doctor takes the grafts otherwise known as bulbs, from which about 1-4 hairs grow, and then transplants them. The procedure is minimally invasive, as a result, the patient can go home on his own after the procedure. The most important advantage of transplantation is the effectiveness of the procedure for today it is the only alternative for hair loss and combating baldness, which will work whenever other methods fail. The effect of a new, thick hairstyle can be obtained after just one treatment, which is especially important for those who do not have the time and desire to appear for several treatments. For us, the most important things are safety and comfort of the Patient and this is taken care of by a group of specialists, using modern technology and making sure that the Patient does not feel the slightest doubt during the procedure. The only disadvantage, which is outweighed by all the benefits of hair transplantation, is the waiting time for the final result. It is not visible immediately after the procedure. The waiting time for a new hairstyle can take about a year, but after years of living with baldness, a few weeks is nothing. During this time, of course, it is essential to follow all the doctor's instructions, as well as to take care of the scalp – otherwise, the final results may not be satisfactory enough.
