steps |
The Procedure of Follicular
hair Transplant is simply divided in 3 steps.
|
Step-1 : Harvesting
of Strip : |
|
The hairs in the Donor
site from back and side from which we harvest
the Strip are normally trimmed short after
deciding how big strip is required. The area
is cleaned with antiseptics and the skin in
numbed by local Anesthetic. After harvesting
the strip with single blade knife with least
possible damage to the hair under magnification,
the gap is closed by only one continuous stitch.
The stitch line and the subsequent very thin
linear mark will remain covered and hidden
by the long hair on the top of the suture
line, even when you leave the clinic after
surgery. No bandage is given when you leave
the clinic. |
Step-2 : Cutting
of Strip into Follicular Units : |
By using high magnification
and digital magnification the strip is first
slivered into rows of single follicular unit
thickness. The slivers are further cut into
Follicular Unit Grafts (FUG) by a well-trained
team of technicians. They are carefully preserved
into cold normal saline until finally implanted
in the patients' body. |
|
Step-3 : Implantation
of Graft to Recipient Area : |
The meticulously prepared
grafts of Follicular Units are implanted with
the special device called implanter taking
care of direction, depth, density and naturalness.
The procedure is virtually pain free due to
numbing of the skin with thinnest possible
needle. Use of implanter avoids the handling
of stem cell area of the follicles so the
damage to follicles are minimized and the
growth rate is maximized. |
|
Entire procedure experience
is made pleasant and pain free. You can talk
to staff, or us because you are never made
sleepy or unconscious. You can, read, listen
to music, watch TV, have break for lunch,
juice or toilet or can take a nap if you have
to get over the Jet lag! At the end of the
procedure you can put on your cap and walk
back home. |
