Hair Restoration and Techniques

Hair restoration can be achieved through non-surgical treatments like minoxidil, antiandrogens, phototherapy, and PRP procedures, or through surgical methods like hair transplantation. Continued treatment is needed to maintain results, and full results are visible after 12-18 months.

A good hair transplant is judged by various factors including cosmetic appearance, hair angles, complication signs, and donor scar consideration.

Follicular Unit Transplantation is a reliable hair restoration method with a high success rate and minimal scarring.

Body and beard hair can be used for hair restoration in severely bald patients, but the technique is complex and costly.

Various surgical methods for hair restoration, like scalp reconstruction and tissue expansion, have been developed, but follicular unit transplant remains the most common procedure for correcting pattern baldness.

New hair transplant methods offer more natural results and better graft survival, with ongoing research to increase donor hair options.

Surgical hair restoration involves moving hair from a non-balding area to a balding area, with the transplanted hair not subject to male pattern baldness. Medications can slow hair loss and regrow some hair, but successful treatment needs careful planning, skill, and ethical responsibility due to progressive hair loss and limited donor hair.

Hair transplantation is effective for seborrheic hair loss if done carefully.
