Hair Transplant in Guernsey & Jersey
Both men and women suffer with hair loss, but the affects are slightly different.
Male pattern baldness is the most common form of hair loss in men, with 70% of the male population experiencing this type at some point in their life. This form of balding affects a further 25% of men by the time they reach 20. Hair loss in women receives much less exposure but can have equally if not more distressing consequences. It is estimated that around 30% of the female population encounter thinning of hair and balding at some point during their lives.
Hair restoration procedures are increasingly popular and beneficial to patients who feel embarrassed and distressed by receding hairlines, baldness and thinning. Many have waited with baited breath for the arrival of the sophisticated and state-of-the-art Direct Hair Implant (DHI) method, as it does not involve a scalpel, has no post procedure scarring and the use of cleverly placed local anaesthetic renders the treatment virtually pain free.
Once the procedure has been completed, the new hair continues to grow for life and looks incredibly natural. DHI hair transplant procedures aim to increase the survival rate and growth of the hair follicle, by reducing their handling and the time they stay out of the skin throughout the harvesting process. In older methods of hair transplant surgery, the hair follicle was over-handled during various stages of the procedure. The DHI hair transplant technique offers the direct implantation of the grafts with fewer traumas and no scarring, as well as less damage to the blood supply.
This simple, yet advanced medical procedure allows for natural results, requires minimal postoperative medication, and there are no tell tale signs of treatment after the healing process.
