The need for wigs was so great, that were invented special machines to make them. Around the world scientists, hairdressers, designers, chemists, designers worked on the production of raw materials, replacing the natural hair. So there was a man-made fiber, it was obtained in 80-ies of XX century. In 1938, after many experiments, chemists have developed and acquired a new synthetic fiber, nylon, with no use of natural fibrous material and a synthetic polymer with fiber-forming properties. Fibers that replace natural hair can be divided into three groups: acrylic, vinyl, and polyamide were created special workshops with the most modern equipment. These workshops worked in Italy, France, Germany, Korea, USA and Japan. Russia has also organized workshops who worked on the raw materials purchased abroad.

At work we used synthetic fibers and laflin kanekalon. Kanekalon fiber is very similar to the color of natural hair.

Myths About Hair Transplants and Truth

In recent years hair transplantation became very popular not only among men but also women. However, despite the availability of information in the press, yet there are a number of questions that we asked for comments by famous US doctors.

Donated hair transplant, the best option, especially if uvas sonorom same blood group?

This is one of the most common myths. Transplant can only own hair, in all other cases they will be rejected by the body as alien tissue. Even if we suppose that the donor grafts, including a close relative, have a chance to settle down, it should be remembered that the match should be as blood type, and color, and in addition, the structure of the hair. Too great a risk factor for hair transplant and will not undertake any professional.

myths_about_hair_transplant

Hair-safe solution to the problem of baldness?
Absolutely. The technique itself is based on the mechanical redistribution of hair on his head. Here's how: The surgeon takes a section of skin with hair from the donor site, usually at the back, it creates out of mini-and micrografts (small areas of skin with hair follicles), and then transplant them into the area of baldness. Naturally, the transplanted hair will not be thick and fluffy, but good disguise thinning areas. But if the patient is completely bald, of course, impossible to perform hair transplants.

Transplanted hair does not require any special care?

It's true. You do not have to buy special cosmetic preparations and take expensive vitamins. You can use regular shampoos, conditioners and apply usual masks and even dye her hair.

Hair transplantation is one operation. After her neostats no scars, mild?

This is true. Hair transplantation does not affect large areas of the skin; therefore, no serious problems arise. The only time - may be small swelling (especially if the transplant was carried out in the temporo-frontal area), but they fall within a few days. To speed up the rehabilitation process, we recommend a course of special restorative procedures. As for scarring, post-transplant is only a small seam. It is located deep in the hair so that it does not even notice your hairdresser.

Hair transplantation may adversely affect brain: cause dizziness, memory loss, attention some cases even cause Minor Strokes?

The most amateurish opinion of all. The method of hair transplantation involves only skin and subcutaneous fat of the scalp. Deep underlying tissue, including bones of the skull and brain, are not subject to any influence, and therefore the negative effects can not be afraid.

Transplanted hair may not only from the back of the head, not other body parts?

From a scientific point of view, you can take hair from any part of the body. That's just to do it? Hairs on the body are very different in structure, color and thickness of hair that grow on the head. If they are transplanted, the result will look like, to put it mildly, bizarre, and sometimes even funny.

Hair transplantation - a painless procedure, which has a minimum of contraindications?

It's true. Operation of the hair transplant is performed under local anesthesia, so is completely painless. Absolute contraindications are few, and they concern mainly the critical states of health. Hardly what a surgeon would dream to have surgery the next day after acute myocardial infarction or stroke. There are relative contraindications, but very little. This is diabetes, coagulation disorders and skin diseases in the acute stage. All the pros and cons are evaluated on a preliminary consultation.

To achieve good results, hair transplants done in several stages?

No, it's not. If the donor site and allows the surgeon skill, unique operation is best done in one step. The only exceptions are those cases where the area of hair loss is so great that require more than four thousand transplant grafts. It would be extremely difficult to close it in one operation.

The method of hair transplantation is too young to know her very little?

Completely false statement! In medical practice, the first successful transplant of their own hair to treat hair loss made in the late 50-ies of XX century, and the theoretical justification procedure done in 1939 by a Japanese doctor dermatologist Okuda. From this point was made several million operations around the world. By the mid-80s technique perfected and now she can achieve very impressive results.

The transplanted hair will never look natural hair?

No, it's not. If you contact a qualified, no one would guess that you have made hair transplants. There are so-called methods of transplanting large grafts consisting of 10-15 hair follicles. The final result after such an operation reminiscent of a brush or a doll's head - the hair grow really large bunches, around which are bare patches of skin, but today it is used very rarely. Modern methods of transplant surgeons prefer the mini-and micrografts that contain from one to four follicles. This approach allows for maximum natural result.

Hair Transplants Methods And Useful Tips

Hair Transplant
Speaking about the problems of appearance, which interfere with feel comfortable and confident, one can not forget about hair loss. The problem of hair loss is a medical problem. Currently, there are various methods of treatment and resolve this hair loss problem. One method is surgical. Surgery is laborious and complicated.

There are the following testimonies to the operating method:

• A hereditary type of hair loss in men.
• The scar alopecia. State, leading to the irretrievable loss of hair (surgery, trauma, burns)
• Androgenetic alopecia in women. Develops against the background of a significant increase in the level of male hormones in the peripheral blood with a genetic predisposition
• Anatomical features of hair growth, such as deep frontotemporal bald, high forehead, the hairline change after surgery.

Hair Transplantation (transplantation) hair can be made only to those patients who have sufficient donor hair - for example, in the back or side areas of the head.

Hair Transplanting own hair in women is mainly used as a corrective surgery for reconstruction of the anterior hairline (high line of temples, high forehead), as well as cicatricial alopecia of various origins. Thanks to the development of modern technologies for transplants hair transplantation is now helping a growing number of men and women.

hair_transplantation

Here are the main techniques and tips used in hair transplantation:

• Transplantation of follicular unit
• Seamless method of transplantation
• Transplantation of mini grafts
• Pulling the scalp
• Artificial synthetic hair

Consider each method individually.

Follicular unit transplantation

This technology was first developed by Dr. Bernstein and Rassmanom (Institute of New Hair, Los Angeles, USA). The essence of this method is that the hairs from an area where they normally grow (in the back of the head or the side) are transplanted to places affected by baldness. Use with only the individual naturally growing hair group. To transfer the follicular group of the side or back of the head intact, it is necessary that the donor tissue was removed one piece. This technique, called "allocation Stripes" is the main component of transplant follicular unit. The method preserves the follicular unit, follicular groups and prevents hair follicle. All connections from the follicular tissue donor sites are extracted under the control of stereo, in order to avoid any accidental damage. Using stereo reduces the number of dead follicular groups of about 30-40%.

Follicular Unit Transplantation Has Two Advantages:

• All follicular groups reach a maximum in the growth and well maintained.


• This technique allows the operating surgeon to use small area on the patient's body. Grafts consisting of individual follicular unit are extremely small. They put in very small holes in the place of transplant healing within a few days and leave no scars. Before the surgery produced photographs pod operations area. Photographing is mandatory for any plastic surgery. It is used for medical records and compares results before and after operative treatment. In the hospital for one to two hours before surgery hair shaved, my head is treated with an antiseptic. After that, the lines marking the boundaries of sections and inserts a marker. After that the patient has transferred to the operating room. Operations are carried out under general anesthesia (general anesthesia). In the case of small pattern baldness, hair transplantation is performed under local anesthesia with intravenous potentiating, which is able to provide enough protection in a shallow, superficial sleep.

During the operation an experienced team of surgeons, transplant follicular unit gives surprising results: the type of transplanted hair will not differ from the naturally growing. Due to the size of the grafts and the holes where they are transplanted, very small, the doctor has the opportunity for a transplant procedure, a fairly large number of connections. Of course, for the full course of hair restoration will require not just one operation, but their number is greatly reduced through the use of the techniques.

Why it is important to use in transplantation is follicular group? Because hair grows in human groups (follicular unit), rather than individually. These groups are compact and surrounded by the skin, where hair does not grow. Skin hair-free up to 50% of the area, so when you remove them to transplant hair follicles are damaged. In the case of multiple follicular units (minigrafty and micrografts), an additional skin graft to require larger incisions to accommodate, and this, in turn, prolongs healing and can affect the final result of the transplant.

Thus, follicular technique makes effective use of stock hair in the donor area, but also significantly improves the aesthetic result, recreates the natural hairline, as well as maximizing the density of transplanted hair.

Seamless Method Of Transplantation

The first publications on the use of a seamless method of hair transplantation appeared four years ago, the United States. The revolutionary spirit of the method was seamless retrieval and transplantation of hair follicles. This method is called FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction, extraction of hair follicles without skin incision in the donor area). The author of this method, an American scientist, Dr. Rassman Bernstein, for his design was awarded the "Platinum follicle." The main difference between this method lies in the fact that we should not remove the strip of skin from the donor area. Hair follicles are extracted by special miniature instruments under constant supervision of high-precision optical instruments. Also, this method allows, with a deficit of hair on the donor area and the presence of large amounts of hair on other parts of the body to transplant hair follicles not only from the head, but also from other areas. Hair follicles are long in a special solution and transplanted to the patient almost immediately; resulting in less loss of transplanted hair after surgery, most of them begins to rise immediately, but not 3-4 months as after other methods of transplantation. This operation can be performed two or three days in a row, replacing for each day up to 300-400 grafts.

In the transplanted hair are all the natural characteristics of color, texture, ability to increase life. They require no special care. A few days after surgery, patients returned to normal rhythm of life, because after the surgery leaves no scars and stitches in hair transplantation. May be present only point the wound - traces of which has been observed, almost imperceptible. Reduction process and the healing period after the hair transplant procedure takes place with less painful. Some discomfort is the case, but quickly eliminated by the usual analgesics.

Transplantation Of Mini Grafts

The idea of mini hair transplant grafts, based on a hair transplant with the "donor" area on the top of the occipital and forehead, grafts, consisting of two or three adjacent to each other follicular unit. A narrow strip of donor at the back gives the number micro transplantation that allows you to fill a large area of baldness hair. Under local anesthesia, the donor of the head is cut a flap of skin with hair, which dissects the mini-grafts - "boxes", bearing 20-30 hairs. Mini-grafts are cut again, even at the micro-grafts - skin particles to the number of bulbs from one to three. The whole process of cutting grafts should be performed under a microscope. It's pretty hard work required from the medical staff of special skills and abilities. In addition to accuracy and precision cutting is also very important and fast. Since the smaller the amount of time the donor material is outside the body, the higher the degree of engraftment and survival of grafts, but depends on a good result. Each graft is attached to or made by laser hole at an angle corresponding to the natural hair growth. On average, a single operation carried 1200 - 1600 grafts. Transplanted hair remains for life. However, you should know the following important point, which is not always the transplanted follicles take root, and then decorate baldness may not hair, and terrible scars. Unfortunately, this method can not recover the entire scalp, the maximum that can be done - this is a rare mark hair scalp. The mini micro grafting and no one cares about the natural growth of follicular groups and tries to keep intact follicles. It is not considered particularly important. Decisive factors for the use of this technique - its speed and economy. Doctors usually use knives, equipped with multiple blades to separate the donor strip that is cut into the grafts, using only their eyes without any - or magnifying devices. Because of this, and the result - fat grafts with a lot of unnecessary tissue around the hole and the maximum of the recipient.

Tightening Of The Scalp

This is a fairly old technique of hair transplantation. Is as follows: a large surface of the head with no hair, cut, and sewn edges. The surgeon separates by trimming with a scalpel, almost the entire scalp from the inside - before the start of the ears and neck - it tightens and stitches the wound edges. This method yields terrible results.

Artificial Synthetic Hair

Some companies manufacture artificial, synthetic hair that is (microfiber). Synthetic hair transplant man practiced for over thirty years. This method of hair transplantation still has not been very successful. Disadvantages of this method in a large number of side effects. They do not grow; causing painful itching in patients lead to indurations processes crude scarring, pus and other complications, and eventually fall out. For these reasons, the United States use synthetic hair for transplantation is prohibited by law.

Synthetic hair is made of modern polymer fiber and implanted into people with a shortage of donor hair for transplantation. Advertising firms this procedure, use the term "biocompatible hair," that is not entirely true. Because synthetic hair is made up of entirely of synthetic materials and are foreign bodies to the human body. Company manufacturers claim that the loss of synthetic hair is approximately 10% per year. But in practice it turns out that hair loss comes to 30% or more per year, and therefore artificial "biocompatible" hair will be lost within two to three years. On the clinical trials of synthetic hair is not reported. Thus, after a review of basic techniques of hair transplantation, we can conclude that the most advanced to date is a seamless method of transplantation (FUE), especially when it is necessary to transplant a small volume of 200-500 grafts. For large volume, we recommend using follicular transplantation connections.

The most important thing in deciding to hold hair baldness treatment hair transplant method is to acquaint you with the clinic and doctor. Remember that you are taking a serious decision, and how, after all operations are possible complications (abscess, pustular infection seroma formation, hematoma, dehiscence, necrosis of the flap edge, loss of hair on the seam line). A positive outcome of surgical hair restoration depends entirely on the experience of medical professionals and used in clinical technique.

New Approach To Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation for the longest time considered to be "the last frontier" when it comes to removing the scalps, which was denied. However, an innovative approach to hair transplantation has allowed surgeons to give patients a better experience and better results.

Conventional Hair Transplantation

Traditional approaches to hair transplantation often results in some scarring, in combination with cobblestone texture in the scalp. Sometimes, as a result of hair and looks too artificial to provide immediate comfort, balding man.

"Two Way"

hair_surgery

The problems of the traditional "hair surgery" just might disappear completely, with the advent of the new approach. The combination of the old approach with microsurgical approaches, a new method of hair transplantation promises less discomfort and better results.

Microsurgery allows the surgeon to minimize problems. My work is specifically based on the use of micro-grafts and mini-graft hair transplantation. Micro-graft section one or two hair follicles or bulbs. Mini-graft section of three or four lamps.

How New Method Of Hair Transplantation Is Done?

After using a local anesthetic, the surgeon will proceed to cut off the "donor" to the scalp. As a rule, the region near the back of the neck exhibits excellent life expectancy than other regions of the scalp.

The roots of the hair are extracted from the "donor." What happens next is the hard part. "Donor" and then literally cut into tiny strips, for transplantation. Bald patches on the scalp are isolated and given the donor strip, which is two to three millimeters thick only.

After The Operation

When the transaction is completed, the patient should wear a head bandage for the next two days. This will allow the scalp to treat not weakened, and increase the chances of success.

Antiseptic shampoo will then be used to clean newly transplanted head. It is important to use only clean water and medical shampoo specifically designed to ensure that there would be no infections.

What is the main difference between this approach and the traditional approach? The main difference is that the vaccine contains the roots and follicles, rather than actual hair. More natural appearance arises from the scalp hair is allowed to grow naturally over a longer period of time.

What results are a more natural look and less chance of uneven build-up in all affected receding hairline.

The patient may repeat the process a one-year intervals. This allows the hair follicles from the previous vaccination to fully grow and reduce the risk of disturbing those transplanted earlier. And you can also read the History of hair transplant before going to adopt the new hair transplant innovation.

History of Hair Transplantation

The practice of hair transplantation has gone through many stages of improvement, and raised two main branches - the area of surgical techniques and development tools domain. At present the results of surgery for the restoration of hair are stunning. Transplants can not be distinguished from naturally growing hair, even with close examination. Taking this into account, we would like to tell about the history of hair transplantation.

When Hair Transplant Began 

dr.okuda_healthyhairhighlights

Only a few people know that this area of medicine with us for many years. In 1939 a Japanese dermatologist, Dr. Okuda, described the use of cars - grafting. Meaning the operation for the correction of skin on his head, eyebrows, eyelashes and whiskers, suffers from alopecia, the hair grafts using. In addition to Okuda, while in Japan, similar experiments were carried out more physicians, but their publication (Sasagva 1929, Tamura - 1943) in the Japanese magazines have remained unknown.

Okuda, who has achieved the most impressive results was a military doctor and limited their experiments by those who suffered burns, which was especially important for Japan to lead an aggressive expansionist policy at the time. Unfortunately, Okuda was killed during the Second World War that prevented know about his experiences around the world.

Donor Dominance

dr.orentrik_new_york

In the 1950s, doctors began to experiment - to move from the permanent zone of the follicles are not prone to complete loss of hair in problem areas. They wanted to know whether the follicles survive and for how long they will stay in the area of the recipient. Work is underway in Japan (Fadzhita - 1953). The results were positive! The term for this phenomenon - Donor Dominance. Hair follicle itself determines future survival, regardless of where it grows.
The next successor of the studies of hair transplantation in 1959 was Dr. Orentrik from New York. He used to work punch with which he cut the graft from the donor area and transferred it into a zone of alopecia. Punch this size was chosen as the best option for large amounts of hair transplantation, without subsequent loss of grafts due to lack of blood supply to the heart. Although punch and was optimal, the amount of hair on a graft was - 15 - 20. This, as you know, created an unnatural, puppet type transplants.

Separation Of Graft

Together with the concept of hair transplant physicians began to perform operations for cosmetic purposes. And like all first undertakings, they were far from perfect. Doctors have successfully transplanted hair from the side and back of the head, but the results left much to be desired.

Almost all of the operations carried out within ten years - from 1960 to 1970 - had similar results. Now, the term "doll head" to describe the grafts, which consisted of 15 - 25 hairs each? In addition, they were transplanted at a distance from each other. And the worst thing - they all stayed with the man.

follicular_micrografting_transplantation

It was obvious that the procedures require dramatic improvements. And for several years, technology is changing. During the 80th consisting of 5 - 8 each hair, were regarded as an achievement. But, in fact, still remained small "patches". And, of course, some operations at that time began to include the hair restoration of the hairline with the same "patch". Unfortunately, some doctors still practice this technique transplant. Techniques have evolved gradually, and the grafts became smaller, and there's more. Currently, most doctors use grafts, which consist of 1 - 8 of hair, and the number of grafts per procedure varies from two hundred to eight hundred. Although it can be considered an improvement, but such grafts will still make little unnatural appearance.

In the late 80s, some doctors have tried to cut in half long grafts to give 7 - 10 hairs in each. In the early 90's they tried to cut it into four parts, ensuring receipt of 4 to 6 in each hair grafts.

Transplantation Follicular Connections

hair_transplantation_follicular_micrografting

The next stage in the development of techniques of hair transplantation is follicular micrografting connection - it has revolutionary implications for the treatment of many forms of hair loss. With this method, microscopic, living grafts, consisting of one, two, three or four hairs are transferred to any trouble spots. Due to the fact that they are transplanted in their original form, results were striking naturalness. Single grafts used for restoration of sight (front) line and create a natural bloom.

By the mid-90th Doctors transplanted grafts consisting of one, two, three or four hairs each and called micrografts. Finally, was taken into account the fact that the individual hairs grow in groups. They were called the term "follicular unit". Currently, many doctors are transplanted from one thousand to two thousand follicular unit during a single procedure.

Today, hair transplants can not be distinguished from the hair given to you by God. If you have questions about hair transplantation, we strongly recommend contacting a doctor who specializes only in hair transplantation. Try to contact the doctor who is a member of the International Society of Surgeons of hair transplantation.
