Permanent Hair Transplant

A permanent hair transplant for those who are bald, or going very thin, can create more self confidence, more self esteem, and possibly a greater feeling of social standing. A permanent hair transplant works by replacing dead hair follicles with healthy hair follicles one by one to leave a full head of hair.

The procedure is know as stereoscopic follicular unit hair transplantation and is the only method of permanent hair transplant that leaves the patient with completely natural looking hair. A big advantage of this type of procedure is that it can be completed in one surgical session.

The best thing about a permanent hair transplant is that once the procedure is finished, you will see your new hair grow at the normal rate of about half an inch per month. In addition, you won’t have to use any more medication to coax your hair to grow, or indeed, use a toupee; a permanent hair transplant is that good.

Although a fairly expensive procedure, once the permanent hair transplant is completed correctly, your new hair will be there to stay and almost undetectable. However, to get to this stage, you will need to choose your doctor wisely to ensure you get the best transplant possible.

Skilled permanent hair transplant surgeons are, unfortunately, not in abundance and it will take some research to find a suitable one with the skills to give you a totally natural look. Many clinics now have websites meaning you can study the procedure at length, prices of treatment, and the surgeons’ credentials at your leisure.
