Evolution of Hair Transplant
There are various types of surgical and non-surgical ways used for the treatment of baldness. Modern technologies give very good tools for it. In this topic, direct hair transplantation is awarded by the modification of FUE. There has been a great revolution with pioneers in that field. A natural hairline has been developed for better cosmetic results in hair transplantation. This statement explains the options which are available during surgical and non-surgical concepts in baldness. In addition, the nest opens by sliced razor blade before hair follicle implanting. So, its evolution is summarized.
2. Evolution.
In 2014, about 207 people underwent
surgeries of baldness. People having moustaches and beard
transplantation, multi-session transplantation and lady patients are not
included in these people. The scalp harvested graft was not evaluated. Under
Anesthesia, all types of procedures were performed. During that procedure, 1-2
mm haircut and a micromotor system was applied for hair follicle harvesting.
Punches are present to the micromotor on this system having a range 1500-3000
rpm. These were chosen on the base of their diameter range 0.8-1.2 mm. Follicle
harvesting was controlled under supine position.
Hair losing non-surgical therapy
was used in the early era. Finasteride, Minoxidil, dutasteride, cyproterone and
spironolactone are used for patients temporarily. Furthermore, laser therapy and low-level
light are used for baldness patients but on the other hand, practitioners can
select for home or office usage. Basically, the donor dominance concept of hair
losing was firstly published in 1959 but it's reason could not be identified.
Then, the better reason was accepted i.e., these hairs have their permanent
serve for transplantation in both male and female pattern hairs losing.
Transplantation has following
steps:
Planning
Preparation
Anesthesia
Graft harvesting
Secure
Graft transplantation
Dressing.
FUT techniques are used on a large
scale. During this procedure, the area of the donor is cleaned by shaving and
elliptical excision is formed for harvesting. Its dimension is calculated by
comparing the recipient's area which is grafted. After that, the graft is added
into the patient area. FUE is a follicular unit extraction technique having 1-2
roots. The first person who used it was Okuda that was used for self-made
sharpened circular punches having different diameters i.e., 1mm, 2mm, 3mm and
4mm etc. Ominigraft was an introduction to standardized micrograft and mini graft
transplantation that has three main parts i.e, hairtome, graft implanter and
micromotor having blade range 0.8-1.25mm.
A third method of hair
transplantation is used to gain transit time that can decrease the survival of
grafting. To avoid this, the implantation process is performed as soon as
possible. FUE automated instrument builds follicles harvesting on the base of
suction by extraction technique. Micro refined micro follicular hair
transplantation (MMHT) is the latest method which is used to construct anterior
hairline by FUE. The advanced FUE version is just like old harvesting follicle
technique but the process of implantation is advanced and is issued by
Konstantinos.
3. Conclusion.
From above all discussion, it is
concluded that hair transplantation also has
an evolutionary history and with the passage of time. Now-a-days, new and
advanced technologies have been introduced for surgery.
