Hair Transplant

Hair Transplant

Hair loss is affecting a large portion of the population, including up to 85% of males and 40% of females, and its incidence increases with age for both sexes. There are many causes of hair loss, by far the most common etiology is androgenic alopecia (AGA), an androgen-sensitive pattern of hair loss that affects both men and women.

Non-surgical treatment modalities exist which may halt the progression of androgenic alopecia and even help grow new hairs (minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride, low-level laser light therapy, platelet-rich plasma, adenosine).

Recent advancements in surgical hair restoration have made hair transplantation an increasingly effective, safe, and reliable way for patients suffering by androgenic alopecia to regain a more youthful and natural appearance of hair.

Hair Growth Cycle

Anagen – This is 2- to 6-year active growing phase of the hair follicle. Approximately 90 to 95% of scalp hairs are in anagen stage at any given time.

Catagen – This is 2- to 3-week phase of the hair follicle characterized by acute follicular regression. Less than 1% of scalp hairs are in catagen at any given time.

Telogen – This is 2- to 3-month resting phase of the hair follicle characterized by a stop in all activity. Approximately 5 to 10% of scalp hairs are in telogen at any given time.

Exogen – The daily shedding phase of the hair follicle characterized by a loss of 25 to 100 telogen hairs, which are replaced by new anagen hair.

Types of Hair Transplants

  1. Follicular unit transplantation (FUT)
  2. Follicular unit extraction (FUE) techniques. Currently, FUE represents the more common approach due to its potential advantages over FUT, which include:
  • Increased number of harvestable grafts.
  • Patient’s hairstyle is not a factor since scarring is less apparent
  • Donor site laxity and density are not a significant deterrent
  • Postoperative pain is less
  • Postoperative healing time is less
  • The surgeon can target follicular groups of a specific size or hairs with a specific diameter or pigmentation
  • The surgeon can target hairs outside the typical donor site (i.e., parietal scalp, chest, back, beard, pubis) if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do hair transplants last?
Hair transplant procedure can last a lifetime. That’s because the genetic predisposition for hair loss resides in the follicle, rather than in the scalp.
What is the success rate of hair transplant?
Graft survival rates following a hair transplant are between 90-95%. Success rate depends on many factors like donor site, recipient site, surgeon’s expertise, patient’s age and post op care.
Is hair transplant painful?
Proper local anesthesia and post-operative pain medications are given to control the pain. While no surgery can be completely painless and some brief and likely temporary level of discomfort is possible, which is managed by pain killer medications.
Which age is best for hair transplant?
Hair transplants can be carried out on anyone above the age of 18, but it is advisable not to have a transplant until the age of 25+. Younger men may not be the best candidates since their hair loss pattern may not yet fully be determined.
Can you still go bald after a hair transplant?
After successful hair transplant, hair will continue to grow naturally as you get older. You will not go bald again as these hair follicles harvested from donor area are resistant to action of DHA hormone responsible for hair loss.

What People Say

Clients Testimonials

Would not have gone the regular braces route because I am in a customer-facing position. I am in the customer relationship dept , with a lot of people around me with whome I ll be interacting a lot. To be in management, in a hi-tech company with a mouthful of braces in front of customers and prospects and other executive partners, it just wasn’t an option. I explained my problem to Dr Kalnge and she had a perfect solution for that.. The Invisalign. What I like about it the fact that no one could notice that it was in my mouth during whole duration of treatment. My friends were surprised to see my teeth and smile changed without wearing any visible braces. I highly recommend Dr Kalange’s invisible braces.

I am so glad I made the investment to go with aligners rather than metal braces. I’ve heard stories of people having food stuck in their metal braces, and I didn’t want to go through that. It’s so easy — all I have to do is remove my aligners when I eat. Dr Kalange gave me the exact solution to my problem the way I wanted it to be.

Vedika

My son who is very afraid to go to doctors, had his first consultation with Dr Kalange, I was astonished to see the way Dr Kalange and her staff handled the fear and anxiety of my son. He became very comfortable. The facility is very impressive, the staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. They put my son at ease right away as he begins his orthodontic treatments. He is no longer nervous about future appointments. Thank you!

Mrs Tanvi Jain

At the point when I initially visited Dr. Kalange, I didn’t have idea of invisible braces. I always wanted to get my teeth straightened but was scared of putting braces on because of esthetic concern. Dr Kalange explained me they have virtually invisible braces called Invisalign. The moment Dr Kalange explained me about Invisalign, I couldn’t believe on my ears that I can get my teeth straightened without putting a single metal bracket or wire in mouth. It was like wish come true moment for me. Dr. Kalange’s staff went to work ensuring that I was well informed, comfortable and responded to all inquiries that I had. I understood that they gave me best treatment solution to fit my requirements. I can’t communicate how superb Dr. Kalanges and her staff have been, they treat you with the highest regard and like you are an individual from the family! I have and will keep on suggesting Dr. Kalange to any individual who needs a GREAT Orthodontist!

Eram

As a teenager, I had some teeth crowding and I never liked it. Now I am a flight attendant and am around a lot of people, but I didn’t smile much as I didn’t like my smile. I was embarrassed to show my smile to people. I eventually decided to take care of it and booked consultation with Dr Kalange.

“The staff is very professional and friendly. They were also very helpful with working with me on how to do payments. The doctor was very thorough on explaining how the Invisalign procedure works. I have more confidence now that my teeth are straight and don’t think anything of smiling and interrelating with people.
