Hair transplant: thinking about it?

A hair transplant uses your own growing hair. Once placed, it requires only normal washing, grooming, cutting etc. No special maintenance is needed. For more information please contact us on hair transplant

A minor surgical procedure

Hair transplantation is a minor day case surgical procedure.The procedure only deals with the surface layers of the skin: the epidermis and dermis.

Hair Restoration:Hair Transplant Information

The first two layers of the skin contain the hair follicles (roots). Every single hair follicle on the human head is genetically programmed either to become sensitive to the male hormone, causing it to die after a time, or to become permanently immune to the withering effects of the male hormone and last for a lifetime.

These lifetime hairs are found in high density in nearly all men, even those who are severely bald. They are located in a horseshoe shaped region at the back of the head called the "donor area". Email us on hair transplant

The procedure

The principle of hair transplantation is to take the permanent hairs from the donor area and relocate them to the thinning or bald areas elsewhere on the scalp.

The removal and transplanting of hair is a straightforward minor surgical procedure carried out under local anaesthetic. It only takes a few hours but the complex part of hair transplantation is the artistry required by the hair transplant surgeon.

Great skill is required to design and create a natural looking hairline zone that is correct for the shape of your face and your age, now and in the future. The following are taken into consideration; the correct texture of hair taken from the donor area and the density of grafts including graft size to maximise fullness and density.

The final stage

The final stage of the hair transplantation is the placing of the individual grafts in the correct pattern. Our hair transplant surgeon ensures that scrupously planned, methodically placed tiny follicular micrografts (often single hairs), grow together to recreate nature's original composition.
