Do Hair Transplants Really Work?

Wayne Rooney's hair transplant 'inspires men to get treatment'

Hair transplant is considered to be the most invasive measure to battle the “hair today gone tomorrow” problem a lot of men and women face today. Despite the deluge of infomercials on hair growth products in the market today, hair transplant seems to be that one choice that most hair loss victims wish to have but are skeptical, cautious or financially incapable to jump into. This lead many to ask whether hair transplants really work. 

Hair transplant has been in practice for many years now. But it was never an easy road to success, because during its early years hair transplant has its share of poor outcome and needed improvement.

Back in the day when you speak of hair transplant surgery, you may expect to have hair restored on your head but the results don’t always guarantee the best quality. With the level of expertise and approach used back then, a patient can most likely end up with a bad hairline or poorly distributed hair follicles. 

But on the questions whether the procedure work and lasts long, yes it does. But one must also factor in the quality of work for it to be called a good hair restoration option. 

With the advancement in technology and improvement in practice, you can be assured of a top quality and natural-looking outcome. 

Today surgeons see to it that you not only get hair restored, but they also ensure that each hair follicle is properly distributed and are angled perfectly. Adding to that, surgeons also see to it that the removal process from the donor site is carefully done for good graft survival rate. 

But before deciding on it, a patient should first undergo comprehensive evaluation by the hair surgeon to properly assess his or her specific case. Since hair loss is different for every individual, it is important that the doctor determine the type of hair loss the patient is suffering from and the progression that it is going. 

The hair loss pattern of the patient should be assessed properly so that future appointments and measures can be determined. Additional sessions will contribute to the already expensive procedure, but under the right care and with a credible hair surgeon you can be assured of a more successful outcome. 

The results may not show that fast. In fact, there may come a time when it would look worse than when you started, but healing can take a couple of months to a year. This delicate time of recuperating should also be undergone by the patient with extra care. 

Hair loss victims are also asking whether they should continue with their hair loss medications after they have gone through hair transplant surgery. Yes, patients should still continue taking these treatments to hinder any hair loss progress in other areas on the head. 

The results of the surgery can certainly last for many years to come. Hair transplant does work and is excellent in restoring your body image, just look at successful cases such as Wayne Rooney, Elton John, Mel Gibson, and Jude Law. Today these men are sporting a good head of hair even as they age.
