DESCRIPTION

A natural looking hair transplant depends on how good the design is. There is no ‘one size fits all’ solution to hair loss and each hair transplant is unique and catered to the individual. This presentation looks at the factors to consider during the design process and outlines the steps that a surgeon takes when creating a hair transplant design.

A natural looking hair transplant depends on how good the design is. There is no ‘one size fits all’ solution to hair loss and each hair transplant is unique and catered to the individual.

Many patients are unaware of the importance of hair transplant design.

The design establishes how the hair transplant will look so it’s a crucial step in the hair restoration process.

These are just some of the things to consider when designing the most realistic looking hair transplant.

Factors to consider…

Page 5: The importance of good hair transplant design

The team assess how much donor hair they have to work with and create a realistic looking plan for the hair transplant based on this.

On the day of surgery, the team gather in the morning to finalise the design process before discussing the proposed design with the patient and his partner or family member.

The Pre-op consultation…

The design… The design looks at the current hair loss pattern and predicts

future hair loss so that hair is not transplanted to an area which will lose hair and make the hair transplant visible.

It can take more than one hair transplant to fully address the hair loss problem and this is also factored into the design.

The design process… The design process is labour intensive and requires the full

skill of the surgeon and technicians.

Hair must be matched exactly to the area affected by the hair loss, taking into account colour and thickness, so the hair transplant blends easily into the thinning or bald area.

Once the donor hair has been removed, each follicle is redistributed onto the area of hair loss, based on the design.

Once the design is finalised… …the technicians calculate the amount of donor hair

necessary to deal with the patient’s hair loss.

They achieve this through a combination of macrophotography and computer analysis.

Then, the strip of donor hair which is to be removed is trimmed close to the scalp in preparation for surgery.

Every step of the hair transplant process should be geared towards achieving natural looking results and none more so than in hair transplant design

which guides every step of the transplant procedure.
