Hair transplant surgery is usually associated with a major family or career change.

Hair transplant surgery is the removal of hair from a relatively dense area on the scalp and relocating is on a bold area. In order to be a good candidate for a hair transplant surgery, you should have areas on your scalp that can serve as donors.

Preparing for a hair transplant surgery

If you are taking any medication, consult your physician and your surgeon in order to determine the number of days prior to the surgery when you will stop taking them. If you smoke, stop smoking a couple of weeks prior to the surgery. You won’t be able to smoke during the recovery period from the hair transplant surgery as well, as it can inhibit your healing. Make sure not to get your hair cut before the surgery as it will be easier to conceal it if your hair is longer. Wash your hair the night before the hair transplant surgery.

The duration of hair transplant surgery

The duration of a hair transplant surgery varies, and depends on the technique that is used to perform the hair transplant surgery, and on the amount of hair to be transplanted. In any case, the hair transplant surgery usually takes longer than 3 hours.
Complication and risks involved in hair transplant surgery
Hair transplant surgery is a relatively safe procedure. The risks involved are those associated with any other surgical procedure.

Hair transplant surgery procedure

The techniques for hair transplant surgery have evolved in the years since this procedure was first introduced, more than 40 years ago. In the past, a hair transplant surgery would require a series of surgical procedures whereas today, a single hair transplant surgery can achieve satisfactory results.
During the hair transplant surgery procedure, your surgeon will make very small incisions and transplant your hair and surrounding skin and tissue into the bald area of your scalp. This procedure requires accuracy, so it is important that you choose a professional, experienced surgeon.

Recovery from hair transplant surgery

Hair transplant surgery is a minor surgery. The wounds will heal within a couple of days and up to 2 weeks. However, it is important not to take part in any strenuous activities during the recovery period.

How long until you see results? The transplanted hair will gradually fall off in the weeks following the hair transplant surgery. It will than take a couple of months (even up to 4 months) for the transplanted hair to start growing.

What are your other options? In certain stages of hair loss, surgery can be avoided. Thinning, falling hair can be regrown, thicker and fuller, and prevent the need to get a hair transplant surgery altogether. One such succesful product is the Smart Organic Products Hair loss Kit, which is very popular, pain-free choice that you can now get for free (only pay shipping costs), and is suited for all stages of balding.
