Large-volume transplant possible with non-incision 'smart hair transplant'…"If the forehead line has receded upward, it should be considered"
Recently, cases of men in their 30s and 40s stressed by 'M-shaped' hair loss are increasing. M-shaped hair loss is a symptom in which the front hairline gradually recedes in the shape of the letter M. It mainly occurs in men, with family history, excessive stress, poor eating habits, and lack of sleep cited as risk factors. In fact, there is a large demand group considering men's hairline hair transplant due to M-shaped hair loss.
In the early stages of M-shaped hair loss, one feels that more hair is falling out than usual. Afterward, one experiences the hair around the M-shaped area of the hairline becoming thinner. As it progresses further, the hair becomes thinner, turns fuzz-like, and is lost.
The biggest risk factor for M-shaped hair loss is genetic causes. The male hormone testosterone is altered by 5-alpha reductase, interfering with hair growth and the maintenance of hair health. Hair loss symptoms appear gradually starting from the front of the forehead because this area is most greatly affected by male hormones.
In the early stages of hair loss symptoms, improvement can be expected through lifestyle changes and drug treatment. However, if hair loss has already progressed and hair density is low, it is difficult to improve with simple drug treatment. In this case, men's hairline hair transplant is performed.
Men's hairline hair transplant can be considered not only for M-shaped foreheads but also when the forehead line has receded upward, when the connection between the front and side lines is unnatural after a previous hair transplant surgery, when sparse sideburns make the face look wide, and when the hairline is irregular.
In particular, the point is that it can be performed with smart non-incision hair transplant, a non-incision method rather than an incision method. Incision-method hairline hair transplant is carried out through the process of incising the scalp and then separating and harvesting hair follicles. There is little follicle damage, but incision scars occur.
Smart non-incision hair transplant uses a patented dedicated clipper to secure hair follicles of uniform density and length, reducing concerns about follicle damage and scarring while enabling large-volume transplant. Satisfaction is increased through natural hair transplant. In addition, through a real-time microscope monitoring and hair count counting system, a transparent surgical process is provided in real time. This is a positive factor that in turn increases patient trust.
Hair transplant is an elaborate and meticulous surgery, and even after moving and planting hair located at the back of the head, hair loss can appear again at any time. Since it is important to choose the medical staff well, it is essential to examine things carefully through consultation with the physician in charge before the hair transplant.
