Hair Transplant

What is hair transplant?

It's a surgical procedure done by hair transplant surgeon, under local anesthesia hair root form donar areas are transplanted into bald areas.

Does hair transplant work?

Yes as science is progressing we are able to transplant follicular units of micro-grafts with precision by expert hair transplant surgeon. The transplanted hair has the same color, characteristics, curl & growth rate. Modern Infrastructures & techniques provide guaranteed natural results. Natural result.

When can I resume my work?

This is a day care procedure, modern techniques allow us to resume our work very next day, but in some cases two days off may be required.

Is hair transplant painful?

With the help of advance anesthetic agent, pain is mostly avoidable but little pain during anesthesia injection can be possible.

How much time is needed for surgery?

It depends on number of follicular grafts required.Generally it takes 7-8 hrs. but if the area is small then it may require 3-5 hrs. during procedure a small can hear music, watch TV, can go for snack break, and attend calls on cell.

How much time will it take for complete re-groth?

In normal condition, 3-4 month is sufficient time for re-growth, however, result may vary patient to patient.

Are there any major complication following surgery?

No.

Like good health and youth, most of us take our locks for granted that is, until they're gone. For many people, a hair transplant can help bring back what looks like a full; or at least a fuller, head of hair. If thinning or going bald really bothers you, this procedure can be one way to feel more confident about your looks. Hair transplant is a cosmetic procedure done to restore the lost hair and lift the looks of the person.

There are a number of applications for Hair Transplant Surgery, including:

  • Androgenic Alopecia ( scalp baldness )
  • Frontal Hair Line Lowering or Reconstruction (naturally high hairlines without an existing hair loss condition).
  • Bald patches in females
  • Eyebrow Transplant
  • Moustache, beard transplantation

Hair transplantation is a surgical technique that moves individual hair follicles from a part of the body called the 'donor site' to a bald or balding part of the body known as the 'recipient site'. In this minimally invasive procedure, grafts containing hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding, (like the back of the head) are transplanted to the bald scalp. Hair transplantation can also be used to restore eyelashes, eyebrows, beard hair, chest hair and pubic hair and to fill in scars caused by accidents or surgery such as face-lifts and previous hair transplants.

Since hair naturally grows in groupings of one to four hairstrands, today's most advanced techniques harvest and transplant these naturally occurring hair "follicular units" in their natural groupings. Thus, modern hair transplantation can achieve a natural appearance by mimicking natural hair for hair. This hair transplant procedure is called Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT). Donor hair can be harvested in two different ways: strip harvesting and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).

Procedure:

Pre-operative assessment and planning

At an initial consultation, the surgeon analyzes the patient's scalp, discusses their preferences and expectations and advises them on the best approach (e.g. single vs. multiple sessions) and what results might reasonably be expected.

For several days prior to surgery, the patient refrains from using any medicines which might result in intraoperative bleeding and thereby resultant poor "take" of the grafts. Alcohol and smoking can contribute to poor graft survival. Post-operative antibiotics are commonly prescribed to prevent wound or graft infections.

Harvesting method by Follicular unit extraction (FUE):

  • Transplant operations are performed on an outpatient basis, under local anesthesia so that the procedure is painless
  • which typically lasts for about six hours.
  • The scalp is shampooed and then treated with an antibacterial agent prior to the donor scalp being harvested.
  • With Follicular Unit Extraction or FUE harvesting, individual follicular units containing one to four hair are removed;
  • this micro removal typically uses tiny punches of between 0.6mm and 1.0mm in diameter.
  • FUE takes place in a single long session or multiple small sessions.
  • If donor hair numbers from the back of the head are insufficient, it is possible to perform Body Hair Transplantation (BHT) on appropriate candidates who have available donor hair on the chest, back, shoulders, torso and/or legs.

Post-operative care:

  • Your surgeon will have you wear bandages over your scalp for at least a day or two. He may also prescribe an antibiotic or an anti-inflammatory drug for you to take for several days.
  • Within two to three weeks after surgery, the transplanted hair will fall out, but you should start to notice new growth within a few months.

Acne

Acne is a long-term skin disease that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with dead skin cells and oil from the skin. Acne can appear on the back, chest, neck, shoulders, upper arms and buttocks. Most people who have acne are teenagers or young adults but acne can occur at any age.

Causes of Acne:

Genetics: Genetics are thought to be the cause in 80% of cases

Hormonal: Which occurs during puberty, may contribute to the formation of acne. During puberty, an increase in sex hormones called androgens causes the follicular glands to grow larger and make more sebum. Acne that first develops between the ages of 21 and 25 is uncommon.

Medical conditions that commonly cause a high-androgen state, such as polycystic ovary syndrome, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and androgen-secreting tumours, can cause acne in affected individuals.

An increase in androgen (and sebum) synthesis may also be seen during pregnancy.

Diet: The role of diet as a cause is unclear and neither cleanliness nor sunlight appear to be involved. So the relationship between diet and acne is unclear, as there is no absolute evidence which establishes any definitive link.

Psychological: Research indicates that increased acne severity is associated with high stress levels in certain settings (e.g., in association with the hormonal changes seen in premenstrual syndrome)

Acne symptoms

Acne can cause more than blemishes. Studies show that people who have acne can have

Low self-esteem & Depression

Dark spots on the skin: These spots appear when the acne heals. It can take months or years for them to disappear.

Scars (permanent): People who get acne, cysts and nodules often see scars when the acne clears. You can prevent these scars.

Steps to Prevent Acne and taking care of skin with acne

Keep skin clean, but don't overdo it.

Avoid skin-care and makeup products that can cause irritation.

Choose makeup products for your skin type. If you have oily or combination skin, stick to makeup that's labelled as being for that skin type. Avoid creamy, heavy formulae and choose powder formulae when possible.

Remove makeup before going to bed.

Protect yourself from the sun.

Exercise daily.

Relax!

Acne treatment that you apply to the skin:

topical treatment: Most acne treatments are applied to the skin.

Acne treatment that works throughout the body: Medicine that works throughout the body may be necessary when you have red, swollen types of acne.

Antibiotics

Isotretinoin(the only treatment that works on all that causes acne).

Procedures that treat acne: Your dermatologist may treat your acne with a procedure that can be performed during an office visit. These treatments include:

Lasers and other light therapies: These devices reduce the p. acnes bacteria. Your dermatologist can determine whether this type of treatment can be helpful.

Laser resurfacing can be used to reduce the scars left behind by acne.

Light therapy (also known as photodynamic therapy) is a method that involves delivering intense pulses of light to the area with acne following the application of a sensitizing substance.

Chemical peels:Dermatologists use chemical peels to treat 2 types of acne — blackheads and papules.

These peels only affect the epidermal layer of the skin and can be useful in the treatment of superficial acne scars as well as skin pigmentation changes from inflammatory acne.

Botox

Botox is one of the most predominantly used treatments to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines.Doctors have been using Botox for years to successfully treat wrinkles and facial creases. Botox is a brand name of a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.. Botox is most often used on forehead lines, crow's feet (lines around the eye) and frown lines. Wrinkles caused by sun damage and gravity will not respond to Botox. It can also be used for lip lines and for the chin and corner of the mouth and neck.

How does Botox work?
Botox blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles and so the injected muscle can't contract, which makes the wrinkles relax and soften in appearance. Following treatment, results are usually seen within three to five days; however it can take up to two weeks to see full results.

How is the Botox procedure performed?
It is a relatively short procedure and requires no anaesthesia. Botox is injected with a fine needle into specific muscles with only minor discomfort. It generally takes three to seven days to take full effect
