• FUE Hair Transplant

  FUE Hair Transplant

  

  
  

  Hair transplant has been considered as an effective surgical intervention to treat hair loss problem. It is an autologous tissue transplant by using the donor hair follicles (from back of head) which are less affected by dihydrotestosterone (DHT), then move to bald or thinning area on scalp (recipient site). It has mostly used to treat receded frontal hairline, mid-scalp thinning or even crown baldness.

  Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), also known as minimal invasive hair transplant, is a modified donor harvesting method. Each individual follicle will be extracted under local anesthesia, and the wound at the extraction will be around 1mm in diameter which will close without suturing.

  Same as FUT, newly implanted hair at the recipient site will shed 1 week after surgery, and the swelling after surgery will subside within few days depending on size of the surgical session. Comparing with FUT, donor site of FUE heals faster and its biggest advantage over FUT is that it will not leave behind a long fine linear incisional line over the back of head. However, the density of donor site will be greatly reduced with each subsequent FUE session, bigger the FUE session, thinner the donor site will be.

   Although hair transplant can fix the appearance resulted from hereditary hair loss, however it will not be able to stabilize the progressive deterioration to the remaining areas. Therefore, it is necessary to start before or at the same time the prescriptive medicine from doctors to stabilize the condition. It is said that the number of hair follicles required for transplant may vary individually subjected to the degree of hair thinning at time of presentation, also the density of donor hair follicles, scalp elasticity, hair texture, previous surgery and different in expectations. The hair grafts survival rate stays around 80-90% and will mostly continue their hair growth cycle, however hair growth cycle, density and even colouration may deteriorate gradually with years and this is just a normal physiological ageing process.

  For FUT, an area will be measured and marked out at the back of head and a strip of skin containing hair follicles will be removed, the wound will then be approximated on each edge and closed with Trichophytic Closure Method which will enable the resultant scar unnoticeable. Then nursing staff will dissect the harvested strip of skin with care under power microscope, to each individual follicular units containing either 1 hair, 2 hairs or 3 hairs, then these dissected follicular units will be implanted to the recipient site, namely frontal hairline, mid-scalp and crown area.

  Same as FUE, newly implanted hair at the recipient site will shed 1 week after surgery, and the swelling after surgery will subside within few days depending on size of the surgical session. The wound closed at the donor required suture removal at about 10 days after the surgery.

• Mustache Transplant

  Mustache Transplant

  Mustache transplant shares the same principle as hair transplant. Prior to surgery, doctor will communicate with patients to mark out the desirable shape and distribution of mustache. A strip of skin from donor area (back of head) under local anesthesia, the wound will be approximated and closed with Trichophytic Closure, and the resultant scar will eventually be well hidden. The harvested strip of skin will be dissected into single hair follicle under powered stereomicroscope. The dissected hair follicles will be implanted into the marked out area at the mustache area. Swelling will be subsided within few days and sutured from the donor area will be removed after 10 days. Newly implanted hair follicles will shed about 2 weeks after surgery and regrow 2-3 months later.
