HAIR TRANSPLANTATION

Hair transplantation is a surgery that can address the after-effects of genetic hair loss. It can achieve a natural appearance by mimicking the original hair orientation.

Hair transplantation can be a safe surgery, but there can be some complications. These may include:

Postoperative pain
Itching
Dissatisfaction related to the procedure's outcome
Surgical complications such as infection, wound dehiscence, or skin necrosis

The results of a hair transplant can last even ten years after the procedure if the patient avoids tobacco and alcohol consumption and protects the scalp from sun exposure and physical trauma.

CONSERVATIVE HAIR TREATMENTS

Conservative hair restoration approaches are ideal for patients who have experienced noticeable but relatively limited balding and hair loss. Typically this will mean some degree of thinning and hair loss at the front of the hairline as well as some hair loss on the crown. Conservative hair transplant surgeries will take less time than most traditional hair restoration procedures since there are fewer grafts to place.

What is platelet-rich plasma?

Platelet-rich plasma consists of two elements: plasma, or the liquid portion of blood, and platelets, a type of blood cell that plays an important role in healing throughout the body. Platelets are well-known for their clotting abilities, but they also contain growth factors that can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration or healing in the treated area. Platelet-rich plasma is simply blood that contains more platelets than normal.

To create platelet-rich plasma, clinicians take a blood sample from the patient and place it into a device called a centrifuge that rapidly spins the sample, separating out the other components of the blood from the platelets and concentrating them within the plasma.

WHAT IS PRF?

WPRF, or Platelet-rich Fibrin, is an advanced platelet concentrate treatment. It harnesses the potency of white blood cells, growth factors, and fibrin to rejuvenate your skin, stimulate hair growth, and expedite wound healing. As a natural concentrate from your blood, it works in harmony with your body’s mechanisms to produce remarkable results.
