Hair loss can be a challenging experience, affecting self-confidence and overall well-being. Thankfully, modern hair transplant procedures offer a permanent and natural-looking solution. At Medicbloom Clinic, we specialize in state-of-the-art hair restoration techniques, helping you regain your hair and confidence.
A hair transplant is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that moves hair follicles from one part of your body (usually the back or sides of the scalp) to areas experiencing hair thinning or baldness. The two most common methods are:
When considering hair transplant options, it is essential to understand the differences between HST (Hair Stem Cell Transplantation), FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). While FUT and FUE have been widely used for hair restoration, HST stands out as a superior technique due to its advanced approach and long-term benefits.
FUT, also known as the strip method, involves removing a strip of scalp from the donor area, from which hair follicles are extracted and implanted into the recipient site. While this method allows for the transplantation of a large number of grafts in a single session, it leaves a linear scar, requires a longer recovery period, and can cause discomfort post-surgery.
FUE is a more advanced approach compared to FUT, where individual follicular units are extracted from the donor area and implanted into the recipient site. This method reduces scarring compared to FUT and has a shorter recovery period. However, the extraction process depletes the donor area over time, making it less sustainable for patients requiring multiple procedures.
HST is a groundbreaking hair restoration technique that sets itself apart from FUT and FUE. Unlike traditional methods, which fully extract follicles, HST utilizes partial follicular extraction, allowing the donor area to regenerate hair naturally. This method significantly enhances hair density over time without depleting the donor area.
Ideal candidates for hair transplants include individuals experiencing:
Candidates should have healthy hair growth in donor areas and realistic expectations about the results.
Hair transplants are typically done under local anesthesia and can take several hours, depending on the extent of the treatment. After the procedure, some redness and swelling may occur, but most patients return to normal activities within a few days.
Following a hair transplant, it's essential to follow your surgeon's aftercare instructions. Avoid strenuous activities, keep the scalp clean, and attend follow-up appointments to ensure optimal results. New hair growth typically begins within 3-4 months, with full results visible in 12-18 months.
