HAIR LOSS
Hair loss has a great number of causes and contributors, including, but not limited to:
- Hormonal changes
- Malnourishment
- Stress
- Thyroid dysfunction
- Anemia
- Lupus
- Trichotillomania
- Diabetes
- Alopecia areata
- Traction alopecia
Still, the leading offender is androgenic alopecia, aka pattern baldness. Millions of people, both men and women, are enduring hair loss because of this inherited condition; passed down the family tree through one or both parents’ X chromosomes containing weak androgen receptors. These weak genetics cause head hair to be extra sensitive to the damaging influence of DHT, a common hormone that destroys susceptible follicles. Eventually, this results in crown loss and hairline recession for men, or evenly spread thinning in women.
HAIR RESTORATION WITH FUE
By now, worthy FUE hair transplant pictures have demonstrated that follicular unit extraction is an advanced procedure compared with the others out there. Pictures are evidence of the following claims about this microsurgical technique:
- It results in no linear scarring
- It leaves minimal scarring generally
- It enables natural-looking hairline manufacture
- Using body hair, it can correct severe baldness
The individual excision approach of FUE is delivered through a .8 to 1.2mm circumference punching device and can harvest hair from any area on the scalp and several areas on the body. It does not employ scalpels, stitches, or staples, and requires little downtime of the patient, since healing happens rapidly. The wide donor pool of follicular unit extraction allows the restoration and repair of those who struggle with extreme thinning (because of pattern baldness, botched surgical treatment, or other reasons). Its faculty to use fine caliber hairs from the nape or even legs makes it perfect for hairline work.
FUE hair transplant pictures can also substantiate or undermine a surgeon’s claims of expertise. By scrutinizing the hairline creation, the precision of graft placement and angulation, the global coverage, and the intricacy of the crown whorl you can verify a surgeon’s medical aptitude and artistic skill. And through observation of numerous photos, you can ascertain his/her level of experience, range of cases, and reliability of success.
FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT PICTURES, PHOTOS AND VIDEOS
Previous patients are nearly always willing to impart their experience in order to assist future patients, in decision-making; and this means disclosing pictures of their before-and-after. These photos (and videos) can be found in Internet discussion forums, clinic websites, online blogs, and in-office consultations. They are normally free and easily accessible by any of these means. Nonetheless, not all pictures are reliable. Quality FUE hair transplant pictures make it clear that you are looking at the same patient “before” and “after.”
Moreover, they should be taken in a well-lit atmosphere, with a focused lens, and display different angles of the outcome. Occasionally, you will encounter photos and videos that look strange—be careful, they may have been edited or retouched for enhancement. Don’t trust pictures that appear tampered with, as this compromises the honesty of the image.
FAQ
Is everybody a candidate for FUE?
Not everyone is an FUE candidate. To be eligible for this surgery, you must be older than 24, have substantial donor hair, and have no medical history of scarring tendencies, blood clotting irregularities, or anesthesia allergies. And it is always best if the patient’s hair texture is straight, as curly hair raises transection rates during excision.
Are FUE hair transplant pictures able to reduce the cost?
Some clinics will reduce the cost of your transplant if you agree to provide them with promotional material by showing your face in videos and photos and talking about your experience.
What does FUE cost?
The amount of hair loss you have is what ultimately determines the cost. Clinics normally charge somewhere between $5 and $12 per graft, and a few will charge an hourly rate. The quantity of grafts you require multiplied by the per-graft rate is what sets the price.
