What is hair transplant?
It is a surgical intervention that moves the hair you already have to an area from where you are loosing hair. During the surgery a surgeon will take hair from the dense section of your head, referred to as the donor area, which they will implant in the affected area. Though the methods of this surgery are different, you should go for the one which is the most suited for you.
Types of Hair Transplant-
- Follicle Unit Strip Surgery (FUSS)
In this type of Hair Transplant Surgery the surgeon will remove a strip of the skin from the donor area and close it back with stitches. Now they will separate the donor skin into tiny units which will contain one more hair follicles and insert these units in the affected area. - Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE Hair Transplant)
In this type of hair transplant, the surgeon will use a punch tool to remove the hair follicles from the donor area. In this procedure the donor area will not require any stitches however there might be slight scarring which will not be very noticeable.
