Hair Restoration

You might have thought you had your hair forever, but if you’re losing yours in significant amounts, it might be time to look into hair transplant surgery. This is a permanent solution that can give you back thicker, fuller hair, and the confidence to show it off. Here are a few things you need to know before taking the plunge.

Find a Doctor that’s Registered with the GMC

Your choice of doctor is one of the most important factors when considering any type of surgical procedure, and that’s even more true for Neograft Hair Restoration. Look for a doctor who is registered with the General Medical Council (GMC), which is the body that regulates medical doctors in the UK, and also has membership with the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS). Having this kind of certification shows that your doctor has completed a minimum of three years of medical schooling, passed all required exams, and has the skills to perform the surgery safely and successfully.

Look for a Specialist in Hair Restoration

Your doctor should have extensive experience in the field of hair restoration, as well as many before-and-after photos to prove it. Look for a surgeon who does both surgical procedures and non-surgical treatments, so they can provide you with a holistic treatment that addresses all aspects of your hair loss.

Ask Your Doctor What Techniques They Use

There are a few different techniques available for hair restoration, so make sure you discuss your options with your surgeon. The right method for you will depend on your goals, lifestyle, and budget. For example, if you’re looking for an extensive transformation, you might want to consider tissue expansion or flap surgery techniques, while follicular unit extraction (FUE) is a good option for those who want a more discreet result.

What’s great about a FUE hair transplant is that it has minimal scarring compared to the strip transplantation method that was once the only choice. This is because the scars are tiny and spread out around your scalp, making them difficult to see, even with close inspection.

This technique is also fast to recover from, and you can get back to most normal activities in a few days. ARTAS is another way that FUE can help you, and this technology can increase the accuracy of the grafts by analyzing the individual characteristics of each hair follicle.

During this treatment, your surgeon will create a precise map of your scalp’s hair-bearing areas before harvesting the individual follicular units that will be used to restore your hairline or fill in balding spots. Once they have the follicular units in their hands, they’ll carefully place them where needed and ensure that they’re securely anchored. Once the follicles are in their new location, they’ll grow naturally and give you a natural-looking head of hair. Ultimately, this is the best way to give you the confidence you deserve.
