How does hair transplantation differ by race?

Differences in hair transplantation between East and West ②

Koreans often have straight hair or slightly wavy hair, so they lack the feature of covering the scalp that curly hair has.

Therefore, even when performing a hair transplant, there are differences in design between Asians and Westerners. Asians tend to have less donor hair at the back of the head, more visible scalp, and relatively much smaller donor capacity at the back of the head.

When donor capacity at the back of the head is relatively low, body hair can also be used for hair transplantation. Typical examples include beard hair, abdominal hair, and chest hair. However, compared with Westerners, Asians rarely have abundant body hair either.

Koreans have much thicker hair than Westerners, and the follicles are deeper, so when extracting by the non-incisional method, the punch must be inserted much deeper. As a result, follicular damage can occur more easily.

Taking all of this into account, ultimately, Asians have less favorable conditions for hair transplantation than Westerners.

That is why you should undergo the procedure with a highly experienced doctor, while expecting the highest possible graft survival rate.

It is very important to take medications for hair loss prevention as consistently as possible.

And it can be said that scalp micropigmentation is very important as it can supplement or replace hair transplantation or hair loss treatment.

It is important to preserve and manage the remaining hair as much as possible, and to choose a hospital that can take a comprehensive view of the situation, so that you can receive surgery and treatment.

I also want to say that it is very important to choose a doctor with extensive experience in Korean and Asian hair.

In addition to the differences in hair transplantation by race, [Danah Plastic Surgery YouTube] has a variety of useful information related to hair transplant surgery.
