Hair implants are man-made and man-made products. Unlike a hair transplant, a hair implant has a fixed size and the ‘hair’ cannot grow. Hair implants are a great way to get a “youthful look” when you seem to be getting old and developing baldness.
Hair implants are relatively easy to perform with the advancement of new technologies. The idea of creating hair implants was relatively brilliant considering the fact that 95% of men have more or less pronounced baldness problems.
For men, baldness follows certain patterns. The first is hair loss in the two areas on the top of the head. A few hours are enough to cover these parts, it depends on the number of follicles that the doctor is going to implant. After the implant, you may feel some irritation, but it will be just for a few days. In some cases, it is possible that just out of the office, no one would suspect that you have just had a hair implant.
Final results can be seen within three months when all steps have been successful.
The hair implants work well in patients who do not have enough donor hair for the hair transplants. The hair implants are especially useful, since even the best hair transplant doctors would obviously need donor hair to accomplish results and that might not be present in very advanced Alopecia!
The cost of a Hair Implant
The cost of a hair implant is one of the things to consider and depends on the number of sessions performed.
The standard price for each graft is around ten euros according to our estimates. For those who need to have more / longer sessions, this price might drop. If a person has significant baldness, the price of the hair implant can reach, or even exceed, 7,000 euros. It may be good to note that hair implants do not require tedious annual maintenance.
Hair implants for women are also practiced by many doctors and their quality has greatly increased in recent years.
Types of Hair Implants
There are three main types of hair implants. The first is a follicular unit. This is a type of hair implant in which you transplant only one hair at a time. This process helps to make hairline and softer edges. The nest method is follicular units, in this case the transplantation is two hairs at a time.
The last method is the modified follicular unit which involves the transplantation of three to four hairs at a time.
The Risks Associated with Hair Implants
Before you start, you need to know the risks associated with a hair implant. Hair loss and scarring accompanied by bleeding and infections is possible. Whatever the complications, you should follow what your doctor advises you during the postoperative period.
Hair implants are a very good example of technological advancement. This method is accessible to everyone but it can be good to prevent hair loss problems as much as possible and adopt a good diet.
