You are all set. (Hair Transplant)

posted by cal, 22.07.2008, 17:28

The issue you're confused about is that shockloss is MUCH more an issue to weakened hairs than fully strong ones. Transplanted donor hairs in a certain area are usually going to be MUCH more resistant to shockloss than weakened existing hairs remaining in that area.


In case you're not aware of this, androgenic male-pattern "hair loss" is not a reduction in the number of hairs, but mainly a thinning of the existing hairs. You've still got most of the original number of hairs until the very last stages of loss in an area.

So getting a transplant to fight thinning is putting a lower density of thick hairs into an area, to help out a high density of thinned hairs.



I'm not necessarily saying you should never get a HT, but it's true that you might be breaking even on the work for the first several thousand grafts into the top before things begin to look THICKER than when you started. It sucks but that's the breaks.
