When To Expect Hair Growth After Hair Transplant?
by Andrew Martin Health ConsultantHair follicles undergo four stages of growth cycle: anagen, catagen, telogen and exogen. Every hair
follicle can be at different stage of growth phase and follows the complete cycle
of hair growth from maturation to shedding. Shedding of hair follicle is normal
phenomena but it is a point of concern that how much hair fall is normal.
50-100 hair shafts shedding routinely are considered normal and losing hairs
more than this could be alarming signs of hair loss which one should consider
seriously.
In earlier times hair loss was a sign of ageing
but now altering trend of lifestyle, stress and increasing pollution acts as
hand in glove component in facilitating influence of genetic hair loss. As with
increasing incidence of hair loss in younger population, the consequences of
hair loss are more dreadful in terms of psychological impact. In the present
generation where personality management is crucial in every aspect socially and
professionally, hair loss could lead to losing one’s confidence and self
esteem. Hence, people looks for fast and permanent solution for hair loss so

What
happens to newly planted hair follicles after transplantation?
After hair transplant procedure, newly planted hair follicle undergoes
hair growth cycle similar to natural hair follicles which includes: anagen,
catagen, telogen and exogen. Every hair follicle follows its own course and
lies at different stage of hair growth cycle. Based on the stage, the transplanted
hair follicles depict growth and undergoes shedding, rest and growth. Hence, each
hair follicle grows at different time and varies from individual to individual.
The
following timeline of growth of hair follicle after hair transplant are as
follows:
During Week 1:
For achieving the best possible results patient had to follow strict post
operative instructions prescribed by the
hair transplant surgeon. There are mild complications which are short term
including swelling, pain, redness, itching and numbness. These temporary
complications could be easily sorted by the instructions provided by the
surgeon. There is formation of flakes or scabs around the transplanted hair
follicles which disappear in around 10 days post procedure.
Week 2-3: This
is also termed as shock phase when you will be surly shocked that your
transplanted hairs are shedding and you might feel that your hair transplant is
a failure. But not to worry, this is a general sequel of transplanted hair
follicles which loses its shaft and prepares the follicle to undergo growth and
prepare newer hair shaft.
Month 1 to 2: This is the duration
after hair transplant when the hair follicles undergoes rest phase and does not
show any growth or visible change on the scalp. This is usually a
disappointment period for the patients when they are eagerly waiting for the
hairs to appear on their bald heads. Patient scalp looks similar as was
previously before the procedure.
Month 2 to 4: This
is often a happy period for patients as they see new hair shafts visible on the
scalp which brings a ray of hope for fuller growth. But the growth you see is
very disproportionate as each hair follicle follows its own course of growth
and some appears sooner and some latter.
Month 6: Since
month 3 the hair growth progresses and follows the similar pattern as natural
hair.
Month 6-9: A large amount
of bald area is covered with the hair growth and donor area also is healed
completely. Hair shafts also undergo textural changes and become thick.
1 year: The complete hair
growth could be appreciated at the end of a year when you can confirm the results
of your hair transplant and judge its success. Bald area looks fuller and
hairline and temporal triangles are built according to design opted.
