Does Vertex Hair Transplant Not Work?
Dear friends,
Our patients ask us, teacher, if hair transplant performed to the hill area will keep well, the transplants performed to the hill are not self-evident, I wonder why etc.
Hair Transplant for baldness starting from the vertex part, that is, at the back in men, right at the turning point of the hair, especially forces us surgeons. Because this area on the scalp has an upright plan and is a candidate area to be easily noticed and seen, especially from the back with the naked eye. We can call this area the “billboard” zone on the scalp: the openness becomes very obvious, as if an ad is displayed. It is a little more difficult for some reasons to close this place sufficiently in a single session and get a satisfactory result.
Since the hair hairs in the vertex area spread around like a flower that blooms like a rose leaf, wind rose, grafts also need to be Transplant like this. Therefore, it is really difficult to provide a visual intensity. However, on the front side, it is easier to provide a visual intensity at the hair follicles, which hide one after the other and camouflage the opening more easily. The vertex part is usually (and of course) opened in the form of a circle, and since the surface area is pi X the square of the semi-diameter, more grafts are needed for the covering effect.
Finally, the peak part has relatively fewer blood vessels than the front and is a more difficult area to feed. For this reason, the fire caused by hair Transplant is also more than the front parts and the number of newly grown hair follicles may be less. 2nd, when a single session of hair transplantation from front to back is planned for our patients with grade 4-7 norwood opening, that is, with large areas of hair loss (especially if the peak opening is also wide), the peak Transplants may not be satisfactory and in the future. it should be stated in advance that hair Transplant may need to be performed (or revision may be needed) .
Hair growth in the peak area may be slightly delayed compared to the front sides and may take 3.5-4 months.
I recommend to my patients support treatments that support the hair transplantation result, especially in hill Transplant, and can be considered as giving “life water, fertilizer to a newly planted sapling”. PRP comes at the beginning of these treatments.When platelets are injected into hair Transplant sites in a concentrated manner, healing and nutrition in the hair follicles increase, thus increasing the viability rate of the grafts and ensuring that they come out faster.
Finally, it should be remembered that the perfection of the result to be obtained after hair transplantation and the rate of concealment, no matter where, in which area, depends on the characteristics of your own hair structure (color / tone difference or harmony between skin and hair color; hair strand is thin or thick, hair strand is straight or curly).
Stay with love and health.
