How is Hair Transplant in Men done?

On a superficial level, the process of a hair transplant is incredibly simple – hair, or follicular units or grafts are extracted from the donor area, and these are then implanted into the area where there is balding. Before a transplant procedure can be done, it has to be established that the candidate is suited for a transplant or not. Depending on the grade of baldness, the quality and the extent of the donor area, the density and thickness of the hair in the recipient area and the results of the hair analysis test, our doctors will be able to decide whether a person can undergo a hair transplant or not. These factors will also help them decide which kind of procedure will be most suited.

Steps in Hair Transplant for Men

Extraction of grafts from the donor area

The idea is that the grafts should be extracted with minimum transection, and there should be no damage to the donor area. The quality and the quantity of grafts are both important and in the hands of an experienced doctor, both should be near perfect.

Transplanting the grafts in the recipient area

The grafts that have been extracted are meticulously placed in the recipient area, where small holes or slits are created. The experience of the doctor will shine through, in the manner in which the grafts are placed. The direction as well the angle in which the hair is placed are crucial and will determine how natural the hair eventually looks. The density will also make a difference in the final result.
