Hair Transplant? Wig? Health Management? Types of Hair Loss Treatment_ Part 2

Hello, this is Dana Plastic Surgery.

Today is the second part of our look at the types of hair loss treatment.

What are the surgical treatments?

Hair transplant / scalp micropigmentation

Surgical treatments include scalp micropigmentation and hair transplantation.

Hair transplantation is a surgery that can produce the biggest effect all at once.

There are several methods of hair transplantation.

-Strip method

-FUE

-No-shave FUE

-Long hair FUE

-Strip + FUE

-Body hair transplant

In addition, there are many cases in hair transplantation, such as people for whom the strip method is not possible, people for whom FUE is suitable, and people for whom both are possible.

So it is best to choose what suits you at a clinic that can perform surgery using various methods.

Camouflage treatment for hair loss

What is camouflage treatment for hair loss?

As the name suggests, it is a technique that makes hair loss look less severe.

1. Makes the scalp less visible

2. Makes the hair look fuller

A representative method of camouflaging hair loss is a 'wig'.

When wearing a wig, it can create the effect of looking better than before hair loss occurred.

However, that effect can also create problems.

There is a downside in that you cannot take off the wig in front of people who do not know you have hair loss.

In many cases, hair transplantation does not come close to the visual effect that a wig provides.

This is something that needs to be considered.

Also, wigs cost more than you might expect.

✅ The initial cost of making a wig is high

✅ Ongoing maintenance is needed in the middle

✅ When its lifespan ends, a new one must be made

-> If you use a wig for a long time, it may end up costing more than a hair transplant.

Lifestyle treatment / self-care treatment

There are also lifestyle treatment / self-care treatment methods for hair loss.

Changing your lifestyle is also a good method.

✅ Reduce alcohol and smoking

✅ Eat properly

✅ Get enough sleep

✅ Avoid extreme dieting

✅ Treat trichotillomania if present

✅ Build a habit of taking medication consistently

When you are busy, there are people who keep forgetting to take their medicine.

Making sure to take your medication properly is one way to improve treatment effectiveness.

When you think your hair loss has started and you are ready to begin treatment,

first of all, it is most important to accurately understand your condition at a clinic.

How far has the hair loss progressed, and has the density decreased a lot?

Has the thickness decreased significantly, and what is the cause?

How can hair loss caused by that reason be treated, and at what stage and in what way should it be carried out?

If you consult with a specialist and receive treatment, hair loss can be overcome sufficiently.
