are temporary remedies available in the market claiming to treat hair loss like
lotions and shampoos but their benefits seem questionable. Other temporary aids
include hair wigs, extensions and patches which could hide the baldness. These
measures could be exhaustive and could cause embarrassment at times.
Medications like minoxidil and finasteride are available commercially.

slower the progression of hair loss and fasten the rate of hair growth. But

hairs involving transfer of hair follicles from the donor area with high hair
density to the recipient bald area. This is the best solution to fix your hair
loss problem as it can give you permanent outcomes.

in case of progressive hair loss

any special maintenance as the transplanted hairs are completely natural and
grows in the way similar to the existing natural hairs without much care. Thus
these hairs can be treated like natural hairs. These hairs can be washed,
combed, cut and styled exactly the same manner as natural hairs.

local anesthesia and it becomes painless during the procedure thus one can

their work after the procedure. So there is no need to take any leave from work

followed with the routine work.
Am I the ideal candidate for the hair transplant?
While planning for hair transplant
you need to first confirm the feasibility of procedure in your case which can
be done during the primary consultation. The candidature is confirmed after
complete medical history record and assessment of scalp. These interventions
are performed to rule out the cause of hair loss and to examine the hair density
followed by which your candidature is confirmed. Age is not a constraint for hair transplant
procedures but still is usually avoided below 21 years and above 70 years.
When the results of the hair transplant can be appreciated?
After few days of the hair
transplant you will lose all the transplanted hairs which are a normal
phenomenon and comes under phases of growth. These newly planted hair follicles
then undergo growth phases and are visible as tiny extensions on the scalp
after 6 months. You can appreciate the complete results after 1 year of the
hair transplant.
Do we need to take any medications following the procedure?

following the hair transplant. The transplanted hairs are natural extracted
from your own body so grows following the same pattern as the normal hairs. For
the few days after the procedure you might or might not require pain killers to
alleviate the pain.
