However, hair loss can affect both men and women, and it can occur for younger and older patients alike. SmartGraft technology allows patients to achieve effective hair restoration.
What Is SmartGraft?
SmartGraft is an innovative hair-transplant procedure. It is minimally invasive and uses micro-transplants of hair follicles to create hair growth in specific areas.
These isolated hair follicles are then stored in a controlled environment until they are transplanted into the needed areas. Precision and proper placement is vital in achieving natural-looking results.
Ideal Candidates for SmartGraft
If you have spent too much time and money trying different products for hair restoration, it may be time to explore SmartGraft for a reliable hair-regrowth approach.
If you start to notice bald spots on your scalp due to heredity or aging, you may be a good candidate for a SmartGraft hair transplant. It is important to maintain a positive outlook and have ample hair growth in your donor areas.
Your Consultation
Your initial appointment with one of our surgeons will be a consultation session that will involve a physical examination. Your surgeon will look at your target areas and will assess the donor areas to ensure you have enough hair for transplantation. Your medical history will be discussed, especially your scalp health, along with the current medications you are taking and past surgeries.
The Procedure
The first step to your hair-transplant procedure is preparing the donor site. Your hair will be cut short or shaved to make it easy to extract hair follicles. The implantation sites will be numbed with a local anesthetic. Small incisions will be made on the target sites. After the micrografts have been harvested, they will be meticulously placed in the incisions.
Depending on the size of the implant region, the whole procedure could take up to five hours. Due to the minute incisions made, post-surgical marks are minimal and are barely visible. It may take 3 to 6 months before you start to see noticeable changes on your scalp.
Aftercare
There is no significant downtime or recovery period needed after your transplant. You may go back to work within a few days. You will be informed about hair products to use and the proper way to wash your hair. It may take a few days before you can go back to your usual hair-care routine.
Cost of SmartGraft
The cost of SmartGraft hair restoration varies from patient to patient. It is tailored to meet each patient’s hair-loss needs. The overall price will depend on the extent of the work done and the anesthetic used.
