Do I need a Hair Transplantation treatment?

If you are happy with your hair then you don?t need a hair transplantation treatment but if you are suffering from male pattern baldness or excessive hair fall or hair loss then this treatment can be quite a boon in itself!

The International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) 2015 Practice Census report reveals that the extrapolated worldwide volume of surgical hair restoration procedures performed in 2015 was 112,409 in the USA, 143,239 in Asia, 56,883 in Africa/Middle East, and 46,849 in Europe. The report also revealed that male patients for hair transplantation were more as compared to their female counterpart.

Why has hair transplantation become such a trend? This is simply because hair loss has become an everyday issue across the world and the bad news is that medicines and shampoos don?t always work! In such a scenario, hair transplantation is the only logical answer.

Today, there are several options for hair transplantation available to both men and women like a PlacidWay medical expert reveals, "Hair transplantation and Aesthetic clinics provide new age hi-tech solutions for age old health problems!"

How big is the Hair loss problem across the world?

Hair loss is a big problem across the world for both men and women. According to a survey conducted by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, almost 40% of the men at the age of 35 reveal a deep receding hairline and thinning of hair. Here are some mind boggling statistics:

• 35 million men and 21 million women in the USA experience hair loss each year
• 10 million men suffer from male pattern baldness in the UK
• 46% of women try to keep their hair loss problems a secret
• 40% of women go through visible hair loss by age 40
• Today, women in the age group of 25 to 35 are experiencing thinning of hair more than ever before
• Cause of 90% of hair loss is genetic while 70% of women are succumbing to hair loss due to a stress response condition called Telogen Effluvium (type of non-scarring alopecia)
• 40% of women across the world are experiencing thinning of hair due to menopause

Of course, hair loss can happen due to many reasons apart from genetics and this includes:

1. Female pattern hair loss that is also known as androgenetic alopecia
2. Male pattern baldness that is medically termed as alopecia    
3. Some of the other causes in women leading to hair loss or baldness includes thyroid disorders, pregnancy, autoimmune diseases, anemia, seborrheic dermatitis, different types of skin ailments, dry scalp conditions, menopause, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) among others.
4. Physical trauma or stress caused by illness or accidents can trigger hair loss and this condition is often termed as telogen effluvium.
5. Some of the other everyday triggers for hair loss in both men and women include excess consumption of vitamin A, lack of protein in food, smoking and other addiction, depression, use of chemicals in the hair, and work stress!

The Technique

A state of the art technique is used for hair transplantation in Istanbul and it is known as FUE (follicular unit extraction). Follicular unit extraction involves extraction of hair follicles from the donor area of your scalp without requiring linear incision. The hair follicles taken from the donor area are then transplanted. The entire procedure requires the use of highly advanced 1-mm hollow needles. This type of extraction not only leads to quicker recovery time for the patient but also lowers post-operative discomfort significantly.

The other types of hair transplantation procedures that patients can opt for include:

• FUT - Follicular Unit Transplantation
• Eyebrow Transplantation
• Hair Density boost
• Hairline Corrective Surgery
