Hair
Replacement -
The Procedure
Hair replacement involves the use of your own growing
hair. Once re-positioned, the hair requires no additional
or special maintenance in relation to washing, grooming
and cutting etc.
In hair replacement treatment, living hair from the
back and side of the head, where the hair is much
denser and genetically programmed to grow for life,
is surgically removed and re-positioned (transplanted)
to areas where the hair has stopped growing.
The
hair replacement procedure is a minor day case surgical
procedure. It only deals with the surface layers of
the skin - the epidermis and the dermis. When the
hair grows, it recreates the natural distribution
of hair while leaving the surface of the scalp smooth
and unaltered.

Male
Pattern Baldness
Typically, male pattern baldness begins with the hair
at the front of the head thinning and the hairline
receding. At the same time, the hair on the crown
of the head also begins to thin and a bald patch gradually
develops in the middle of the scalp.
Male pattern baldness develops in most men at some
stage and is the common type of hair loss. Some men
can go bald in less than a 5 year period, whereas
this usually takes a period of some 15-25 years. |
Hair growth occurs in
hair follicles. The hair growth occurs from the follicle
over a
period of about 3 years before the hair is shed and new
hair growth occurs.
This cycle continues throughout life.
In Male Pattern Baldness, it is thought that the hair follicles
of the scalp gradually reduce in size and as the follicle
shrinks, the hairs produced become thinner. The period of
growth also reduces prior to the shedding of the hair itself;
Over time, this results in a much smaller hair follicle
and hair which does not grow beyond the skin surface.
