How do I know if I am a good candidate for a hair transplant?
Who benefits from hair transplant:
A well-informed patient is the best patient so you should start researching about different methods like strip, FUT, scalp reduction and flaps. We prefer FUE which is called the golden standard in hair restoration. Presently only 9% of all hair restoration procedures use FUE (source: ISHRS survey 2009). FUE Ilter method is a refinement of FUE featuring advanced instruments that are even smaller than traditional FUE tools.
How do I know if I am a good candidate?
Almost anyone who has experienced permanent hair loss may be a candidate for hair restoration surgery but the results can vary from patient to patient. While hair transplants look extremely natural, the end result may not achieve the density or the total coverage that you had when you were a teenager. Patients may have hair restoration at any age but most clinics do not treat patients under the age of 25. It is often better to start when you are not completely bald. But you must remember a hair transplant is permanent. Trying to change the hair design later can be difficult and very expensive.
The number of men and women undergoing aesthetic surgery is increasing year-by-year, and the social taboos associated with hair transplant surgery are rapidly becoming a thing of the past. As a result, despite our success or maybe because of it, we have now come to a point where there are simply more patients in need of quality FUE hair transplantation than there are gifted surgeons available to help them.
