If you are suffering from hair loss and balding, you are not alone. Hair loss is a common problem that affects both men and women worldwide. Age, genetics, medical conditions, medications and stress usually play a role in hair loss or thinning. Thankfully, hair restoration surgery has become a reliable solution to restore hair growth, giving people the opportunity to feel confident and look their best.
Kitto Plastic Surgery offers individualized services for hair restoration to help patients achieve their desired hair growth goals. Our skilled team of professionals uses the latest technology and techniques to perform Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). These methods include Smart FUE and the SmartGraft hair restoration procedures. We offer a personalized treatment plan for each patient, ensuring that their hair restoration needs are met with the utmost care and attention to detail.
Hair Restoration Surgery for Men
Hair restoration surgery for men is becoming more popular and Smart FUE Hair Transplant is an excellent option for those who want to restore their hairline. With Smart FUE Hair Transplant, men can achieve a natural-looking hairline that matches the rest of their hair. This procedure is ideal for men with receding hairlines or bald spots on their head. Smart FUE Hair Transplant is a minimally invasive procedure that involves harvesting individual hair follicles from a donor site and implanting them in the balding area. The result is a fuller head of hair that looks natural and blends in seamlessly with the existing hair.
Hair Restoration Surgery for Women
Women can also suffer from hair loss and balding. SmartGraft, an FUE hair transplant method, is a great option for them. This minimally invasive procedure uses a small round punch to extract follicular hair units. These are usually extracted from the back and sides of the scalp. These grafts are then carefully implanted into the balding or thinning areas. SmartGraft hair restoration is perfect for women of all hair types who want to achieve a fuller and more natural-looking head of hair.
Hair Restoration Procedure and Recovery
Smart FUE and SmartGraft procedures can take up to four to six hours depending on the treatment plan. The recovery after Smart FUE and SmartGraft is relatively quick and straightforward, with most patients able to return to their normal activities within a few days. After the procedure, patients may experience some mild discomfort and swelling in the donor and recipient areas. Pain medication may be prescribed to alleviate any discomfort and patients should avoid touching or scratching the treated area to prevent infection.
In the first few days following the procedure, patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity and exercise, as well as any activities that may cause sweating or friction on the treated area. Patients should also avoid exposure to direct sunlight, as this can irritate the scalp and affect the healing process. After approximately 10 days, patients will have a follow up visit to ensure treatment areas are healing properly. Patients should start to see results in approximately nine months.
Following the post-operative instructions carefully, avoiding strenuous activities, and taking proper care of the treated area are essential for a successful recovery and achieving the desired results.
Is Hair Restoration Treatment Affordable?
Hair restoration surgery can be costly, but with Smart FUE Hair Transplant and SmartGraft hair restoration, you can get the results you want at an affordable cost. The cost of these procedures is based on the number of hair follicles that need to be transplanted and the extent of the hair loss. At Kitto Plastic Surgery, our highly skilled professionals will provide customized treatment plans for our patients.
SmartGraft hair restoration and Smart FUE Hair Transplant methods are efficient and reduces the need for more invasive procedures. This, in turn, reduces the overall cost of the procedure, making it affordable for more people.
