Hair Restoration Surgery

There are several types of surgical methods used for hair replacement but keep in mind that hair restoration surgery can be very expensive.

Micro grafts contain at least one hair follicle and may contain two or three follicles. The type of hair graft you need depends on the size of the area to be reconstructed. The most common method used is to take a section of tissue containing hair follicular units that is removed from usually around the side of your neck or back area of the neck below your usual hair line or your style of hair cut. This area is usually targeted for grafting because of the lack of DHT or non-shedding properties in these locations. The graft is dissected after being magnified to examine the potential for transplanting. There must be enough follicular units in the excised tissue to be useful as a graft for transplanting where there is hair loss on the head. The graft units are then placed in the best position on the head that will make the growth look natural.

Single follicle grafts are placed in the front of the head to make the growth natural. The skill of the physician and his artistic abilities and esthetic vision all make the final surgical success. Needless to say, the extent of time and effort needed to make hair loss surgery natural looking and the surgical professionalism required for success cost a great deal of money.
