What To Consider While Selecting The Surgeon For Hair Transplantation
by Andrew Martin Health ConsultantAll of us know that some hair
loss is regular. To lose hair is a part of natural growth cycle of hair and is
witnessed by everyone, this actually happens in three stages:
Anagen Stage – This stage refers
to the phase where a hair strand grows actively.
Catagen stage – In this stage, the
hair stops its growth and is about to shed.
Telogen stage – In this stage, hair
is expunged from the follicle following which the it stays dormant, before a
new hair starts to grow.
The problem however, starts when
the lost hair do not re-grow again, this eventually leads to baldness. The
problem with all available solutions is that these are ad-hoc measures and do
not help in dealing with the problem permanently.
Hair transplant offers the most
permanent solution to hair loss sufferers worldwide to restore the bald area
with permanently growing natural hair. The hair transplant procedure is a
restoration procedure that involves minimal invasion and is a surgical
procedure by which your own hair follicles from donor areas (high density and
those with permanent roots) in your body can be transferred to the bald area. Hair
transplant procedure is a pain free procedure which is performed under local
anesthesia.
As evident, hair transplant is an
extremely precise and fine procedure needing extreme precautions in order to
attain an aesthetic outcome. Hence it is
of paramount importance here that the surgeon performing the surgery is very
careful chosen. So what factors to consider while selecting the surgeon for
hair transplantation:
-
A
strong educational profile of the surgeon signifies that the surgeon has sound
content knowledge. The highest surgical degree in India is an MCh and it is
preferable that the surgeon should be an MCh in cosmetic surgery. Being super
specialized also indicates that the surgeon would be aware of in depth details
related to complications, how to prevent them or resolve them and how to deploy
latest technologies for delivering better results, plan a better course of
treatment basis latest advancements in the field.
-
Surgical
skills – There have been adequate technological advancements in the field of
hair transplant such as robotic-assisted surgery, suction-assisted follicular
extraction etc However, it’s worth noticing that these techniques have a
secondary influence on the outcomes of the surgery. The primary influence is
always of the surgical skills of the surgeon. Any technology or equipment is
user dependent and if it finds its place in the hands of a poorly skilled
surgeon or user, then the results could be catastrophic and extremely
ugly.
-
Experience
both in terms of quality and number of cases handled: Experience ensures that
the surgeon has handled several cases and hence, would have larger exposure to
various kind of cases. This ensures that the surgeon will be better in dealing
with complications if any and can also decide best course of treatment
depending upon the patient’s expectations and case profile. To perform a
quality check on the outcomes please use past patient’s gallery, testimonials
and if possible then contacting few past patients. Further a surgeon should
also be evaluated on the basis of number of years of practice and number of
cases operated upon.
-
Surgeon
with personal clinical set up Vs A surgeon working in a branded clinic: A
surgeon with own clinic would obviously put much more focus on the patient and
would strive for best results because it is his/her direct reputation at risk
as compared to a doctor/surgeon employed with branded clinics where multiple
doctors are employed. Also, a single doctor run clinic ensures more
transparency in the credibility of the surgeon and continuity of the treatment.

One
should always choose a surgeon who focusses on quality treatment instead of
simply offering discounts and luring patient basis commercial arguments.
