Hair Transplant Surgery in Kolkata

Hair transplantation is a cosmetic surgery to repair baldness, patchy and irregular hair loss due to genetics, environmental issues or due to a major accident. Hair transplantation thrives to solve all this problems. Let us discuss Hair Transplant Surgery in Kolkata

The invention of this surgery has solved the problems of many men and even women who have alopecia and go through patterned baldness. It used to be inaccessible to people due to its extremely high prices. However, now any common men and women can get it, although it is not cheap, it is still a price that is worth money. There are also many dangers to cheap hair transplant, as they heavily rely on lazy post and pre-surgery care.

How does it work?

Hair transplant involves two different methods but the base idea is that we take the hair follicles from somewhere in the body and place it where there is balding. Before we explain the different methods, it is important to know that hair transplant does not involve taking follicles from another person as it can turn out to be very dangerous; this is because your body would reject it and it could lead to serious illness.Hair Transplant Surgery in Kolkata

The two type of hair transplantation are: FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). Both methods have their own pro and cons and they have different reasons for why it might suit you better. Let us dive deeper into these categories.

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant)

Follicular Unit Transplant involves taking a strip of tissue from an area in your own head where there is more hair so as to balance out the follicles. This strip is then grafted into the area where there is balding. As time goes on, the follicles present in the strip will start to grow hair.

The benefit of this FUT is that it does not take as much time as FUE. However, it leaves behind a linear scar on the recipient site as well as the donor site. This scar will remain visible for some time before it fades out and in addition, post surgery care might seem tiring for people as they will have to be extra careful. The surgery also takes a long time depending on the number of grafts and the level of balding per patient.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction)

Follicular Unit Extraction involves extracting indivisual follicles from the area in the head where there is more volume of hair so as to balance the number of follicles to remain the same amount.

These follicles are extracted and then placed into the new location where there is balding and loss of hair. Since this procedure requires incision per follicle it takes a longer time than FUT. It was also discovered on a later time than FUT and is considered to be a safer option.

FUE is preferred because it does not leave a linear scar which takes longer to heal and is much more visible, as long as the patient is willing to sit for long hours, this procedure is preferred.

FUE is costlier than FUT by a little amount as it involves an operation graft by graft.

Advantages vs. Disadvantages

Hair transplantation in Kolkata is a safe and easy option for anyone who wants to achieve the aesthetic look, whatever gender and age, although for young men who are experiencing balding, it is advised to undergo hair transplant only after they have reached an age of 25 as the pattern of balding can still change.

People experiencing balding also tend to experience anxiety and depression about their hair as they feel they are not up to the standard of society. However, balding is a natural part of life which you can also choose to fix.

There are many advantages to getting a hair transplant; it can

• help raise self-esteem,
•  it shows off a natural looking hair and enhance the appearance.
• The patient need not attend multiple surgeries as this is a onetime procedure.

Once you have undergone a hair transplant, it will take about 6 months for your hair to become completely new and grow new hair. After that, you no longer need to worry about balding and you can move on with your life.

The disadvantages of a hair transplant are-

• The cost, as it an intricate procedure that requires a long time, about 5-8 hours it is not a cheap procedure.
•  The recovery time, it can take some time, about 5 days or 2 weeks depending on the patient
• The scarring, it is an inevitable fate for anyone who undergoes surgery as there are incisons made in the skin which take time to heal
• The risk of infection, as long as the patient is extra careful and follows the instruction of the doctor, it is very unlikely. However, it can happen.
