Today, we have prepared some facts and myths about hair transplantation.

MYTH. Only men can have a hair transplant.

For many years, a harmful myth circulated that hair loss in women is a natural process and baldness does not affect women. Unfortunately, excessive hair loss can also occur in women. Therefore, hair transplantation treatment for women is also recommended and works just as effectively as it does for men.

MYTH. Hair transplantation causes visible scarring.

Aesthetic medicine has advanced considerably. New safer techniques of treatments and plastic surgeries are being developed. It is the same with hair transplantation. Clinics offer us the most modern techniques of hair transplantation, which are as follows: hair transplantation using the FUE method, which involves harvesting of hair follicles with the use of special tools without causing scars. The other method is DHI, which differs in the process of hair follicle implantation. Both of these methods are extremely safe and leave no marks.

MYTH. Hair transplantation is painful

Although hair transplantation is considered a plastic surgery procedure, it is extremely safe and painless. This is due to the fact that it is a minimally invasive procedure. For additional patient comfort, local anesthesia is used.

FACT. After the treatment the hair looks natural

Hair transplantation is a modern enough procedure to achieve extremely natural results. Transplanted hair behaves very naturally and can be subjected to beauty treatments such as coloring, cutting, or straightening.

This is mainly due to the fact that hair follicles are taken from parts of the scalp that are not subject to baldness.

FACT. First hair after transplant will fall out

Yes, however, this is not a cause for concern. This is a standard process that occurs after a hair transplant. This is because the hair follicles make room for the growth of healthy and strong hair. Hair falls out during the first 3 months and after that period healthy hair grows in its place.

FACT.  The effect of a hair transplant does not appear immediately

Hair transplantation does not give immediate results. You have to wait about 6 months for the results, but it all depends on your tendency for hair growth. The good news is that the recovery process itself does not last long, because it only takes about 3-4 weeks, and it is also not burdensome.

Hair transplantation is a very effective and permanent procedure, however, it is worth remembering that in order to dispel all your doubts, you should make an appointment with a surgeon who specialises in hair transplantation.
