In cold and dry environments, special

care for the scalp and natural hair

may be necessary.

Cold and dry environments can have a

damaging effect on hair, and if dryness

continues to be felt, the body’s defense

against external factors will significantly

decrease. In addition, symptoms such as

itchiness, dandruff, and flaking may appear,

and in severe cases, this can progress to hair loss.

In cases where a large amount of hair falls out,

some are chronic, but if you are under emotional

stress in your daily life or become generally

nutritionally deficient due to excessive weight

loss, you may experience temporary shedding

and changes in hair thickness. If blood supply

to the follicles where natural hair grows is not

smooth, if the body is lacking nutrients, or if a

specific hormone is secreted and the follicles are

attacked, the size and thickness of the follicles

will gradually change, causing the hair density to

decrease and the number of hairs to gradually be lost.

If the follicles continue to be attacked, their

original size can gradually become smaller and

eventually disappear, so intensive care from the

early stage of symptom onset may be advisable.

However, instead of visiting a related medical

institution, many people commonly apply only

temporary measures such as hair fibers, wigs, or

hats to cover the area where symptoms appear.

This can actually make ventilation on the scalp

less smooth, allowing sweat and sebum to build

up and making the area more humid, which makes

it more likely to accelerate hair loss.

Therefore, it is good to make an active effort to

improve the condition, and one option that comes

to mind at this time may be the before and after

results of hair transplantation.

This procedure is sometimes considered a method

that can help those who want to remove larger

worries caused by hair loss or who want to experience

dramatic change easily in a single procedure.

Because it is performed by extracting new hair

and transplanting it into areas where natural hair

has been lost, the difference before and after hair

transplantation can be directly confirmed, which

has the advantage of high satisfaction and clear

results. However, due to the nature of surgery,

newly grown natural hair in the treated area may

have difficulty matching the existing hair in terms

of fullness and density.

Therefore, to achieve a satisfying outcome, the

survival rate must be maximized, and the procedure

must be performed by transplanting natural hair at

regular intervals. Even when the same procedure is

performed, the transplanted hairs should not affect

each other’s growth, and they must be able to receive

enough nutrients from the blood flow within the scalp.

Therefore, the procedure must be performed with

detailed, consistent spacing. Accordingly, analyzing

the current condition and determining the amount

based on that, then ensuring stable survival, will be

a direction that can lead to greater satisfaction.

If you become overly ambitious in pursuit of fullness

and perform too much at once, the before-and-after

appearance of the hair transplant may turn out

different from what you wanted.

The final result after transplantation is usually about

50% of the existing normal density, and depending on

each individual’s scalp condition and natural hair

requirements, up to 70% may be expected.

The hair that grows from a single follicular unit in the

occipital area is thicker than the original type, and the

number is generally 2 to 3 hairs, with occasional cases

of 4 to 5 hairs growing together. Therefore, even if the

procedure is performed with a slightly lower amount than

normal density, it may still look natural aesthetically.

For that reason, it may be more appropriate for the final

before-and-after hair transplant result to select an

appropriate amount and perform reinforcement in the

areas that are lacking.

Before starting the procedure, a consultation and

diagnosis are conducted to determine the appropriate

extraction method. Usually, the applicable options may

vary depending on each person’s scalp type and the

characteristics of their natural hair.

To satisfy both the desired density and design, it is

advisable to carefully review the program and system

provided by the institution, including the medical team’s

skill, know-how, reasonable cost, aftercare, and hair

transplant before-and-after cases, before making a decision.

Because there are clear advantages and disadvantages

to each method, choosing the direction of the before and

after hair transplant based on the procedure that seems

most suitable is the right approach. However, for an even

more refined outcome, the care method after the procedure

is crucial, so you may need to make sure not to overlook

aftercare.

If inflammation occurs in the treated area, the survival

rate can drop significantly, so thorough disinfection is

necessary and the area must always be kept clean.

It is also necessary to apply the prescribed ointment

regularly to prevent inflammation, and to actively follow

the provided instructions.

During the survival period, when the follicles settle into

their new place, it may be necessary to refrain from

smoking, drinking alcohol, strenuous exercise, or activities

such as public baths and saunas. In particular, drinking

alcohol or smoking can constrict the blood vessels in the

scalp and trigger inflammatory responses, which can greatly

interfere with the survival process, so they should be avoided.

In addition, care should be taken in daily life to avoid

stimulating the treated area as much as possible.
