Hair transplant is a scientific solution to a problem which is not just cosmetic but also has a deep psychological impact on the one who suffers from the problem of hair loss. This is especially true in the case of the younger generation for which being presentable, physically acceptable and looking good is vital. This is a uniform feeling across the genders. However one of the rising problems faced increasingly by the men in the age bracket of 25 to 35 in Pune, is that of severe hair loss. Leading trichologists state that when the conditions become irreversible for the hair to re-grow, Hair Transplant in Pune remains the only way out for them.

Hair Transplant in Pune is offered by reputed clinics run by experienced trichologists with state of the art equipment, latest techniques and efficient teams. The procedure for a hair transplant can be surgically invasive or minimally invasive depending on the technique chosen. The minimally invasive technique is called the Follicular Unit Extraction or FUE and is the most preferred method for Hair Transplant in Pune.

This technique is based on flawless extraction of hair follicles from the donor area, which is then transplanted on to the recipient area. The donor area consists of the area at the back of the head and the sideburns. Hair transplant as a technique for reviving the lost hair is a successful treatment for men. However, women have consistently shown a low rate of success in this. The reason is attributed to genetics.

Hair, at the top of the head in men, has a follicle at the root which is susceptible to attacks by DHT, a male testosterone hormone. DHT destroys the hair follicle which leads to severe hair loss. The FUE procedure begins with the doctor marking off the area where the transplanted hair follicles would be implanted. Once this is done, the head is shaved and local anaesthesia injected. The doctor then drills into the scalp at the back of the head or looks for follicles from the sideburns, to extract as many follicles as would be required. Referred to as harvesting, this process is the most critical. These follicles are then carefully transported to the team responsible for cleaning and getting the follicles ready for the transplant. Once the follicles are ready to be implanted, the doctor either makes quick small holes with the drill or tiny incisions on the area where the hair would be transplanted. Once done, the doctor and his team quickly and efficiently start inserting the follicles onto the recipient site or the part of the head where the transplant is needed. Since FUE procedures do not require hospitalization, if post Op instructions are followed to the T, the transplant will have a higher chance of success which would see the lost hair grow back in six months.
