Hair loss can happen due to multiple issues like genetics, hormones, stress, or lifestyle. Some causes are temporary and treatable, but If you’re experiencing unmanageable hair loss, you should consider a hair transplant.
What is Hair Transplant
A hair transplant is a more permanent solution to balding or hair thinning. Over multiple sessions, strands of hair follicles are implanted to the areas of your scalp where you’re experiencing a receding hairline or patterned balding. The process depends on an active donor area, i.e., the parts of your scalp where hair growth is still active. Depending on the pattern and extent of hair loss, the surgeon decides the approach of the transplant, such as Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) or Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). Recovery time after the entire procedure is optimal. Meanwhile, the results are long-lasting and consistent, with improved hair density and texture.
Why are you losing so much hair?
1. Hereditary Hairloss
If someone in your family has patterned baldness, you might have it as well. Genetics are the most common cause of hair loss, especially in men.
2. Unchecked Hormones
Thyroid, PCOS, or an unbalanced lifestyle can affect your hair cycle. When hormones are not balanced, your strands start shedding faster than they grow back.
3. Old age
As you get older, your hair starts to naturally thin. The growth slows down, and the strands lose the ability to reproduce faster.
4. Stress and Anxiety
Long working hours or constant anxiety takes a toll on your hair, making it fall out faster than usual. This type of hair loss is temporary and can be revived non-surgically.
5. Deficient Diet
A poor diet often shows up first on your scalp. Low levels of iron, protein, vitamin D, or B12 can weaken your roots and slow down regrowth.
Suitable candidate for Hair Transplant
1. Age: If you’re above the age of 25 with established hair loss patterns, you can go for a hair transplant based on the degree of baldness.
2. Degree of baldness: There are 7 grades of hair loss, ranging from Grade I, which shows a receding hairline, to Grade VII, which indicates advanced baldness. If your baldness is between Grade III and Grade VII, you should consider a hair transplant.
3. Donor area: If the donor area is intact behind or on the side of your scalp, it is easier to extract quality hair follicles for the transplant.
4. Skin conditions: It is important to rule out skin conditions like alopecia areata that might cause or worsen hair loss.
5. Aesthetic goals: You might have a picture in mind of the expected results, but understanding that the process is about restoring hair and not creating a perfect hairline can help align your expectations with the results.
