Hair Transplant Treatment
Relevant information about Hair Transplant Treatment.
Follicular micrografting (also known as 'micrograft') is the most advanced technique in hair transplant. Our Providers offers access to this treatment at a really convenient price and guarantees the use of top-level technology by its highly specialized medical team, always watching over the patients' welfare with the staff's usual warmth.
- Hair transplant by follicular micrografting is a non-invasive and almost painless treatment.
- The healthiest hairs of the head are collected and transplanted into the bald areas, one by one, taking the utmost care not to damage their most precious quality: their vitality.
- It is performed in a 3 or 4 hours session under local anesthesia; no bandages are needed.
- You will only have to do one thing: wait 3 months and see your hair grow back where you thought was impossible!
- What does follicular micrografting consist of
The physician shaves a horizontal section on the area of permanent hair growth, that is, on the sides or on the back of the head. Then, he surgically removes the shaved strip of skin, usually about 0.6 inches (1.5 cm.) wide and between 5.5 inches and 7 inches (14 cm. and 18 cm.) long, and sutures the edges of the resulting wound.
The auxiliary team observes the strip of skin with special optical instruments in order to remove the follicular units and make them ready for implantation. Those with just one hair are placed on the most visible area: the area closest to the forehead. The area is given a very natural appearance and mobility when the ultraline pattern design is followed, a design in which continuous lines are avoided. The units with two or three hairs are implanted further back. The units of more than three hairs are very useful for the upper area of the head, where density is very important. If units of just one hair were implanted in all the head, when exposed to back lights or ceiling lamps, for example, the hair will have the appearance of being transparent.
The hairs are implanted with an approximate density of 32 hairs per square centimeter. A lower density would be insufficient, whereas a higher density would result in an excessive pressure upon the scalp and a subsequent rejection of some of the transplanted units. If the patient wishes a higher density, it is possible to resort to a second session in order to place new hairs between those that have already been implanted. It will be necessary to wait some months until the hairs implanted in the first session become strong and take up again their normal growing rate.
It is possible to transplant about 1500 FU (between 4,000 and 5,000 hairs) in each session. If the patient needs a greater number to cover a very large area, we can make arrangements so that he/she will be able to attend two sessions in just one trip to Buenos Aires, with a week in between. In this case, the incisions will not be made on the back of the head but on the sides, above the ears, first on one side and then on the other.
- Hospitalization: No hospitalization is needed. It is performed on an outpatient basis.
- Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, but mild oral sedation may also be prescribed if necessary.
- Surgery length: Four to six hours.
- Hair Transplants Treatments: The results
Your personal image will improve considerably. Your head will be covered again with completely natural hair that will remain there during your whole life. The genetic information of your transplanted hair will prevent it from dying, no matter where it was implanted.
Each time you go to work or attend a social meeting you will feel happy to comb your head as you used to do when you were younger.
- How many transplants will I need
The number of transplants needed may vary from one person to the other. Even though the number of 'real' hair is important, the way it actually looks is also important; this depends above all upon the degree of contrast between the hair and the skin, the average thickness of the hair, the number of hairs per follicular unit and the hair's undulation. It is also very important to take into account the available hair on the donor area.
In order to present you with an adequate estimate of your needs, you will have to send us a set of pictures showing well-lit close-ups of your head from all angles: front, back and above.
These pictures will help us calculate accurately the number of transplants you will need and inform you the treatment's cost.
