Hair Restoration

[NeedUrgentHelp]

I am a 33 year old male that's been losing my hair since my early 20's. I am currently a Norwood 5 (receding hairline and thinning in the crown) and I'm planning on having a hair restoration surgery at the end of this year. I'm thinking about having the procedure done by Dr. Daniel Mcgrath. Has anyone had a transplant by him before??? He seems knowledgeable and genuine. Please help!!!

Hi, When we talk about hair loss in men and women. Most probably 95% counts for heredity which all the cases for alopecia (baldness). There are many other reasons like diet, stress, illness or medication. There is significant procedure. In every surgical procedure doctors provides anesthesia to reduce the pain while hair restoration so no need to worry about the pain factor. Factors which causes hair loss likely mentioned below :
1. Mediations, vitamins or minerals : Several ,medicines & drugs used to treat high BP, heart problems.
2. Illness including thyroid disease, several infection or flu ; fungus infection such as ringworm of scalp

Treatments on hair loss : Rogaine(topical minoxidil) and propecia(finasteride) are the only drugs approved by FDA to treat pattern baldness.
I hope this is useful treatment procedure to cure your hair related issues.

It's a type of surgery that moves hair you already have to fill an area with thin or no hair.
First, the surgeon cleans your scalp and injects medicine to numb the back of your head. Your doctor will choose one of two methods for the transplant: follicular unit strip surgery (FUSS) or follicular unit extraction (FUE).

If you’re getting the FUE procedure, the surgeon’s team will shave the back of your scalp. Then, the doctor will remove hair follicles one by one from there. The area heals with small dots, which your existing hair will cover.

After that point, both procedures are the same. After he prepares the grafts, the surgeon cleans and numbs the area where the hair will go, creates holes or slits with a scalpel or needle, and delicately places each graft in one of the holes.

I think hair transplant treatment is little bit painful but overall experience of hair transplant surgery is good.

Hair transplants are typically more successful than over-the-counter hair restoration products. But there are some factors to consider: Anywhere from 10 to 80 percent of the transplanted hair will fully grow back in an estimated three to four months. Like regular hair, the transplanted hair will thin over time

Hair transplants are definitely worth it when you consider the effects on confidence, appearance, and the long-lasting nature of the treatment. When we consider if something is 'worth it,' particularly an elective medical treatment, we often consider the expense and time required in doing it.The price of a hair transplant will depend largely on the amount of hair you're moving, but it generally ranges from $4,000 to $15,000. Most insurance plans don't cover it. As with any kind of surgery, transplants have some risks, including bleeding and infection.
