Dispelling Hair Transplant Myths
If you’re suffering from hair loss, and are thinking about having a hair transplant, you’ll find that there are a lot of myths about the subject.
To try to dispel some of those myths, and shed a little light on the subject, here you’ll find a list of some of the myths we come across, and our answers to them.
- They need to be maintained: Hair that has been transplanted needs no more care than your natural hair. You can do anything in the way of styling that you would do with your natural hair.
- It’s too late: Untrue. Actually, when a pattern of hair loss has been established, it’s much easier to determine which hair is a good canditate for transplantation.
- It can fall out: This is false. The hair is surgically implanted into your scalp. When transaplanted properly, your hair should not have any greater risk of falling out that normal hair.
- It hurts: The use of anesthetic creatly reduces the level of discomfort of the hair transplant procedure. You may experience some level of discomfort, but the anesthetic will dull the pain considerably
- They’re expensive: Whilst hair transplantation is not a particularly cheap procedure, when compared to the benefits of increased self esteem and sense of wellbeing, the benefits can far outweigh the costs.
- People will notice: Before the widespread use of FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), some hair transplants which were poorly implemented were noticeable. Using new procedures, transplants performed by competent surgeons will not be noticeable.
As you can see, most of the myths surrounding hair transplantation can be dispelled easily. It is a safe, permanent procedure, which can have lasting benefits to a persons sense of wellbeing and personal image.
