BAD HAIR TRANSPLANTS WITH LOW DONOR DENSITY

• Thursday January 5, 2006 in: Hair Tag(s):
  Hair transplants are hard. That's why hair transplant surgeons go to school for most of their 20's and drive Porsches.

  It's important that the medical practitioner be experienced and have a good track record of successful procedures.
  This is especially true in relation to hair transplantation where the slightest amount or neglect or carelessness can leave a patient struggling with that all-too-common malady known as the bad hair transplants.

  Low donor density which can affect not only the current hair transplant but affect future scalp repair procedures that may be necessary, is one common factor in bad hair transplants.
  
  Donor density, as is implied, refers to the thickness of the donor tissue that is used to implant into the area of the scalp that is suffering hair loss.

  As expected, after the hair transplant the density of the donor area is decreased.

  How much density is diminished depends on the expertise of the surgeon, unfortunately this decreased hair donor density is compounded when the recipient area does not appear to have any more hair than it did before and donor tissue is lost-seemingly for no reason.

  Luckily, even the shoddiest work by one of those Porsche-drivers can be fixed by going to a competent and successful hair surgeon.

  That's it for now. Keep your head up.
