Patient Before His Facial Head to Hair Transplant Surgery
Can I use donor hair transplant grafts from another person or relatives ?
Can I use donor hair transplant grafts from another person or relatives ? I get asked this question often. The rationale being if one individual can receive a kidney from another, why not hair grafts as well? The answer is NO.

Why Hair Restoration Using Hair Transplant Grafts From Another Person

Here is why a person to person hair transplantation is not practiced: When an organ like a kidney is transplanted from one person to another person, the receiver of the kidney would require immuno-suppressive drugs for the rest of their lives. These immunosuppressive drugs are aimed to prevent his/her immune system from rejecting the transplanted organ. However, these drugs would cause the patient to be susceptible to infections which could even be life threatening. Since hair is not considered vital to survival, there would be no justification in subjecting a patient to the lifelong course of the immunosuppressant drugs they would require in order to avoid rejecting the hair transplant grafts from another person. It is really a matter of cost exceeding the benefit.

Alternatives to Using Hair Transplant Grafts From Another Person

The reason transplantation of hair grafts from one person to another would be conceived is usually for the sake of having an expanded donor pool of hair so that extreme baldness can be treated. It is the same reason the quest for hair cloning continues. Well, for individuals suffering extreme baldness, and those whose limited donor supply has been decimated by bad hair surgeries, Dr U provides a solution using the UGraft by utilizing non head donors to expand the donor pool. Using this approach, he has been able to restore countless individuals that would be impossible using conventional head hair donor supply alone. Typical donor regions for UGraft body hair to head transplant include the face, neck, back, chest and abdomen. The UGraft is designed to safely extract body hair follicles which grow at very sharp angles. And they produce donor wound shapes which encourage extraneous tissue around the edges to retract below the surface to avoid the formation of raised and visible scars.
