Men,
women and even children could be the victim of hair loss. Out of all, it is
most common in men. Many solutions exist for treatment of hair damage including
antibiotics, cream, shampoos, and transplant. Hair transplant is the best use
to restore the glory of the head. Surgeons take your donor area graft and
implant it on the bald area of the scalp. Basically, graft from one part is
taken and implanted on another part of the head where there is thinning. It is
a surgical procedure and can’t be done without qualified doctors. Every so
often, a bigger strip of skin is taken which contains multiple follicle
groupings. Hair transplant is considered permanent. A few tests are done before
the surgery to check the patient's health. A patient should be in apt health
before experiencing the surgical treatment. A numbing agent or local anesthesia
is given to patients for the ease of process. This procedure is severe. That's
why sedation is given to patients before operation, but it does not need
hospitalization. The time for operation ranges from 5 to 6 hours approximately.
Hair
restoration Package:
Hair transplant cost varies
depending on the number of grafts to be transplanted plus the method used for
implantation. Grafts are small punches of skin that surgeons choose to relocate
from one part of the head to another. Sometimes, a large piece of skin is taken
and divided into smaller pieces to use as grafts; hence the process is called
grafting. Generally, almost 2000 grafts are implanted to cover baldness of the
head.
The
following are main factors that can change the cost of hair restoration
Ø Number of grafts needed for
transplantation
Ø Area of baldness that require
treatment
Ø Anomalies, if any, in area to be
treated
Ø Country in which procedure is
undertaken
Ø Travel cost if any
Ø Type of procedure chosen for
surgery
Ø Experience of your surgeon
The
cost of operation is different in different countries because of the available
technology. Hair implantation can be done by two methods FUT (follicular
unit transplantation) FUE (Follicular unit extraction).In FUT grafts are
transplanted in naturally occurring groups and the specialist removes a
strip of donor skin and extracts individual follicular units. In
FUE individual follicular units are extracted from the scalp.
Cost
of 2000 grafts surgery:
The
cost for 2000 roots is $8,000 to $10,000 (1,300,000 Pakistani Rupees to
16,000,000) approximately. Let’s say 3,000 grafts can cost $12,000,
meaning 4 $ per graft. The cost per graft increases up to 15$ if the area to be
treated is body. Hair does not nurture in solo hair groupings but rather it
grows in groups of 4 or even 6 hairs depending on the person. This is
what we refer to as a graft.
1500
hair grafts enough or not!
According
to doctors at least 2000 grafts should be transplanted in the surgery. It
mainly depends on the person and density of his hair. Some people are jubilant
even with 1500 roots while others may be unhappy with 3000. So, it is totally
up to a person’s expectations. A person with better density of hair will bear
better results than that with less density hair.
Cost
of 1500 grafts surgery:
In
the United States of America and United Kingdom the cost for 1500 grafts is
$3,000 to $6,000.Again,
it varies from one country to another. If we are talking about 1500 grafts
hair transplant, FUT is cheaper but techniques used in FUE require
more time scrupulous actions. The FUE does not leave any blemishes and is done
with qualified surgeons in the field.
Stage
at which transplant should be undertaken:
Best
age for the procedure varies according to the patient's condition and causes.
All the hair loss that one may experience stabilized till 35. This stage may
come late in some people depending on their lifestyle. One can undergo surgery
even before 35 if suits his needs. There is no age limit for hair plantation
surgery. The only problem happens if the patient has not reached his age where
his hair fall has stabilized, then he may face baldness even after surgical
treatment. You should consult your doctor to have a clear picture.
Risk
involved in hair transplant: There are risks of bruising,
bleeding or swelling. It is a cosmetic surgery so sometimes it can go wrong as
the results may not match your level of expectations. Multiple surgical
treatments could be endured for best results.
If
you are looking for an answer that if the procedure will get cheaper in future,
then sorry to burst your bubble. The cost of hair transplant might
not decrease with new technology because with time surgeon expertise
increases.
Results
from this procedure are quite visible and long lasting. A good hair restoration
surgery could thicken your hair.
All hairs in your head are not affected by DHT (a hormone that is responsible
for causing baldness). Surgeons take the grafts that are unaffected by DHT and
plant it on the other side of the head giving you a denser look. Mostly,
results last for lifetime as healthy follicles are transplanted into receding
areas. Many people are getting hair transplant in Lahore due
to affordability, experience and skill of the surgeons and scar free
procedure.
