Are you losing your hair since a few years? Have you tried many shampooes that were supposed to grow your hair back, but gave no result on your type of scalp? It is now time to try out hair transplants! Many false information circulate about hair transplantation. At first, some people wrongly thought that hair transplant was very painful. On the contrary, the intervention causes little aches. The intervention is made under a local anesthesia (they inject lidocaïne directly on the place where they make the transplant). And so, you could compare the experience with the same pain after an anesthesia at the dentist. Naturally, it varies from a person to another, but the hair transplantation is not a source of atrocious suffering!
Recently, information started to circulated on Internet concerning certain private doctors who offered false hair transplants; these frauds were never reported to the police and the judicial authorities do not know about such practices. If you want to make sure about the honesty of your doctor, take the time to ask him/her all your questions during the preliminary session. This way, the doctor can also diagnose what brings down your hair (it is a false believe that there is only one universal problem concerning hair loss). There are several reasons that make your hair fall. For example, it can involve a hormonal problem, a scalp disease, the pelade, the trichotylomanie or even the anaemia. A good doctor will make you a good diagnosis and will make sure that there is no medical interaction before proceeding to your operation.
Finally, another myth consists in the type of hair used for the transplantation. It is wrong to think that doctors will take hairs under your armpits or any kind of hair from your body. The hairs that are taken for transplantion are from a dense part of your head. So, you keep the same type of hair and it becomes even stronger, because it is taken in the part of the crown where hair are still very resistant. Do not forget to know how many sessions are required for your treatment and especially the price ask by your doctor!
