About Hair Transplant
Hair Transplant
Oncological surgery is the medical sector that focuses on surgical procedures used to diagnose and treat all different types of cancer. Our surgical oncologists work in multidisciplinary teams to construct treatment routes for cancer patients using the surgical practice that best targets the treatment area.
What is Hair Transplant?
Hair loss can occur due to a variety of reasons, such as excessive and prolonged stress, diet, illness, hormonal imbalances, injuries, mediations, or genetics. When the hair begins to thin and fall out this can become a significant insecurity for people and can begin to affect their self confidence.
Although there are various medications and non-surgical methods available to treat hair loss, none of these can effectively restore the hair to its natural state. However, a successful solution to this problem is to undergo a hair transplant. This is essentially a procedure that transfers hair from one area of the body (the ‘donor site’) to an area that is thinning or bald (the ‘recipient site’). The GHB Clinic provides all three main types of hair transplants, which are listed below.
Types of hair transplants:
Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT):
During this technique the surgeon will use the back of the head as the donor site and extract a strip of scalp skin from this area, which will then be closed with stitches. The surgeon will then separate this portion of the scalp into smaller sections to implant into the treatment area, achieving natural-looking hair growth.
