What is Hair transplant surgery?

In today’s day and age, hair restoration is made possible; whether it is from prolonged baldness borne out of illness or the inevitable, hair loss from aging. There are various types of, hair transplant surgery procedures that one can undergo, as well as many sorts of alternatives to the surgery itself. All in all, hair transplant surgery is a cosmetic procedure in treating hair loss by grafting hair-bearing skin from healthier-growing areas of the scalp to the thinning areas that require the extra help.

Before and After the procedure

Before	After
There are at least three types of hair transplant surgery procedures, which one you might undergo would depend on your individual needs and concerns from your surgeon. They are but may not be limited to, (1) Hair transplant graft, (2) Flap surgery and (3) Scalp reduction surgery.	Patience is necessary as it may take up to nine months before hair takes root and begins to fill in the areas worked on.
Psychologically prepare yourself: Bruising, scabbing, swelling, numbing, throbbing, bandaging and a feeling of tightness in scalp may occur depending on the extent of your surgery.	Once hair starts to regrow, it should look natural as it is transplanted in the natural direction of your hair growth.
Thicker and denser hair will produce better results.	Realistic expectations: Even after the procedure, results may not be as flattering as it could be. Several “touch-up” hair transplant surgery procedures may be required to improve overall look or to reach your desired, voluminous outcome.

That said, there are definitely alternatives out there for more cautious people such as prescription creams, wigs and hair extensions to name a few.
