Stem Cell Hair Transplant

Stem cell hair transplant is quite similar to normal hair transplant techniques. However, there is a different technique instead of removing the hair follicles to transplant them to the hair loss area in other hair transplant techniques. In stem cell hair transplant, they remove a small skin sample where hair follicles or grafts are harvested.

The removed hair follicles or grafts replicate in a lab. Then they implant them back in the area of hair loss. Stem cell hair transplant technique allows the donor area to grow hair. The parts of the body where they take hair follicles from are called donor area. In traditional hair transplantation techniques, taken hair follicles from the donor area don’t allow the donor area to grow hair back.

So, with stem cell hair transplant it allows the donor area and the area of hair loss to grow hair. Stem cell hair transplant is a really new technology.

The doctor will implant only 100 to 200 hair follicles to see if the patient has an allergic reaction to the hair or not. The color of the transplanted hair will be chosen by the patient. The doctor put the patient under local anesthesia or general anesthesia.

In stem cell hair transplant, they have to extract stem cells from the patient. They get these stem cells from blood, fat issue like abdomen or bone marrow. The stem cell will have to pass several stages. It has to get the artificial fibers like the hairs. Then the doctor gives the taken stem cells the properties that was chosen by the patient.

They then implant the hair by a micro-nodes device. The device works by holding the hair under the skin. Stem cell hair transplant process can have a different time period depending the number of the hair that will be transplanted. The average time period is an hour.
