Men and women alike are often concerned with hair loss or thinning.

Because of advances in technology, patients who were once refused transplants due to extensive hair loss are now good candidates for current transplant procedures, just one of the incredible advancements that have been made in cosmetic procedures. Our Michigan hair transplant doctors will discuss your medical history and examine the extent of hair loss. During this consultation, a determination will be made about the number of expected transplant sessions.

Hair Transplant Procedures in Michigan

The hair transplant procedure involves taking mini (four to seven hairs) or micro (one to three hairs) grafts from areas of the head with healthy hair and then placing them into the bald area. Because hair is taken from areas that are genetically programmed to grow for a lifetime, the grafts will produce a very sought out solution.

The number of required sessions will vary from patient to patient, depending on the extent of the hair loss. Approximately 100 to 1200 grafts can be transplanted during a session, which can last up to three hours to complete.

Once the hair has been transplanted, it must “rest”. It will shed after about four weeks, with new growth appearing approximately 12 weeks later. If additional sessions are needed, patients are usually scheduled for a second session in three months.

The procedure is usually painless and is done under a local anesthetic. Mild discomfort may be experienced after the procedure as the anesthetic wears off, which is remedied with a mild analgesic. Patients can typically return to their normal routines within 24 hours.
 
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks involved. However, complications with this procedure are rare, and can be avoided by following pre and post operative instructions. Some complications that can occur include:

  • Bleeding, which is easily controlled by pressure
  • Infection and swelling, which is treated with medication
  • Temporary numbness, which will usually end within three to six months.
