As a patient, you can decide between the FUT(Strip) or FUE hair transplant.
Surgical Technique
In our FUT hair transplant, Dr. Kassir surgically removes a thin strip of skin from the back of the hair and individually removes units from this strip to insert into bald area of the head.
In our FUE hair transplant, Dr. Kassir removes single follicular units with a robot and inserts the unit back into bald patches on the head.
Pain Management
In our FUT hair transplant, Dr. Kassir may prescribe pain management medication along with our hair transplant post-op kit. While the scar heals, there may be mild discomfort until the stitches are removed.
Our FUE hair transplant does not have scarring or stitches, but the injury response to the small insertion wounds may have some scabbing that heals in 3-7 days.
Differences
FUE hair transplant is now reaching a similar cost to FUT due to the advances in robotic techniques. Kassir Plastic Surgery offers the newest robotic procedure for FUE hair transplant making it a quicker and more precise procedure than it was in the past. For FUT hair transplant, a 1mm scar or less remains in the back of the head for a few months if cared for with scar cream. Typically, this is not seen as hair grows over the area. Scabbing can occur in an FUE hair transplant due to the follicles being inserted.
Patients suffering from hair loss seek Dr. Kassir's Hair Transplantation procedure as an ultimate decision to restore their natural hair back. Hair transplants have become tremendously common and all the information out there can definitely be overwhelming. Let's establish some of the key points:
1. It's crucial to understand what makes you the right candidate.
The person's hair loss should be stabilized to ensure that the patient will receive optimal results. Hair transplant surgery does not stop hair loss progression. Dr. Kassir will help you assess if you will achieve the results you are looking for after surgery.
Generally, it is better to avoid hair transplant surgery at a young age or at the beginning stages of hair loss.
2. Hair transplant is not the same for everyone
Before going for a hair transplant surgery, it is important to remember that the regrowth of hair is different for every person. Dr. Kassir's technique and equipment allow him to maximize your hair growth given your physiological limitations. The final outcome of the surgery really depends on how much hair you have in your donor area.
3. Transplanted hair can be treated as normal hair
You can treat your transplanted hair just like normal hair, once it starts growing. The transplanted hair is no different than natural hair, it can be washed and treated as you like. With hair transplantation, the patient regains tons of confidence, and not to mention a fresh, new look.
4. Hair transplant is permanent
During hair transplant surgery, the hair is taken and transferred to any bald spots, it is permanent!
5. About the transplanted Hair
The transplanted hair does not fall out. Once the hair has begun regrowing it becomes a permanent part of your scalp. New hair continues to grow for about four months from the date of surgery. In about eight months period you can expect about 80% of total growth to be complete. Growth at the crown area usually takes the most time.
6. Post-surgery precautions are very important
When you plan your surgery, keep in mind that it will take time for you to go back to your normal routine. You should be prepared to dedicate at least the first several days to rest and take as much care of your transplanted area as possible.
7. Sleeping precautions
On your back only, you cannot let your head touch anywhere, especially the area where the implant was made. Hair follicles are extremely fragile during this time period.
