What are the reasons that affect hair transplant results?

People want to have a hair transplant to feel younger and happier. But can everyone achieve the desired happy ending as a result of hair transplantation? Unfortunately, the answer to this question is no. So what are the reasons affecting hair transplant results? Why does not everyone get the desired results? And what should be done to get a successful result? Here in this article, we will try to answer these questions. We wish you enjoyable reading.

In order to call a hair transplantation successful, the following 3 criteria must be met at the same time.

1. Collection of grafts without disturbing the natural appearance of the donor area: Everyone has a different donor site capacity. If this capacity is exceeded and an excessive number of grafts are taken, deformity in the donor area is inevitable. As a result, bald and disfigured areas may occur in the nape of the neck.
2. To achieve a targeted and satisfactory hair density in the recipient area: For this, the transplanted grafts must be retained to a great extent and the roots must regrow at the end of the process. If the retention rate of the grafts decreases, a sparse image far from the desired density will appear.
3. A natural and unmistakable appearance: When a hair transplant is completed, no one who does not know you should be able to recognize it. If they can tell, you cannot be happy with this hair transplant.

It is not correct to talk about success in a hair transplantation where these 3 criteria are not met at the same time. The main purpose of the operation is to increase the hair density in the recipient area in a natural way.

What are the factors affecting hair transplant results?

In order to obtain a good yield from hair transplantation, the following 3 stages should not be made mistakes. In fact, these stages are the continuation of each other and the mistake made before will affect the next one in a chain. These stages are;

• Period before hair transplantation
• Operation phase
• Correct management of the process after hair transplantation

In our opinion, the most important stage to get the desired result in a hair transplantation is the starting point. In other words, it is to decide whether you are suitable for the operation. Whether you are suitable for hair transplantation can only be decided after the examination of an experienced hair surgeon. The following points should be taken into consideration during the consultation.

1. Your expectation at the end of the operation
2. Your age
3. The cause of hair loss in you and your family and the degree of hair loss, whether your hair loss continues
4. Your donor site capacity
5. Your chronic diseases and medications will be evaluated in detail by your doctor

At the end of the evaluation, it will be decided whether you are suitable for hair transplantation. We will examine this issue in detail in another article. If you do not want to be disappointed after hair transplantation, please read this article carefully. We also strongly recommend you to watch the video titled Are you suitable for hair transplantation on our YouTube channel.

Reasons affecting the hair transplant result

Corrections or mistakes made during the operation directly affect the outcome of the operation. In fact, the experience and knowledge of the surgeon and auxiliary staff who perform the operation come to the fore here

1 Choosing the right doctor and clinic

Choosing the right doctor and clinicYou should focus not on where the surgery will be performed, but on who will perform the surgery for you. The chain of mistakes made during hair transplantation will cause unwanted and irreversible consequences. An experienced hair doctor who acts from an aesthetic point of view carries out every stage of hair transplantation from beginning to end within the framework of medical rules. For this, we strongly recommend that you examine the experience of the doctor who will perform your hair transplantation, the results before and after, and the comments on the forum sites on the internet. In order to get a successful hair transplant result, we recommend you to consider the differences between experienced hair doctors and black market and under the stairs clinics.

2 Graft harvesting from the donor area

In hair transplantation, the grafts to be transplanted are first collected from the donor area. However, this graft collection also has its own rules. If too many grafts are taken from the donor area unconsciously by exceeding the capacity, so to speak, ‘an eye is removed while trying to make an eyebrow’. Therefore, a balanced number of grafts should be taken according to everyone’s own graft capacity.

Grafts should not be taken by going beyond the safe area to get more grafts. Because the anagen phase of the grafts shortens as you go out of the safe area. However, the survival rate of the hair collected within the safe area is more than 80% at the end of 10 years. Even if the hair with low anagen phase is transplanted, the retention rate of these hairs will be lower. In addition, where these weak and lifeless hairs are transplanted, the risk of subsequent hair loss increases. As can be seen, the process of taking grafts from the donor area in accordance with the rules directly affects the result of hair transplantation.

The number of grafts needed will vary according to the degree of hair loss. For example, a very good result can be obtained with 2000 grafts in Norwood 3 hair loss. However, the number of grafts required may increase up to 10,000 in people with high hair loss such as Norwood 6-7.

A hair transplant operation proceeds within the framework of mathematical rules. The number of grafts that can be taken according to the donor capacity of everyone is different. Depending on the donor capacity, there may even be people who can receive 10,000 or more grafts. Of course, it is a big mistake to take 10,000 grafts at once. It is the best option to take grafts by dividing them into several sessions. Therefore, the hair density in the recipient area of people with a high number of grafts to be taken will be mathematically higher.

3 Hairline creation

Everyone has a different hairline specific to their age and facial structure. An experienced hair transplant doctor knows how to create the most natural hairline suitable for the person. In addition, the front hairline hair should consist entirely of single and thin roots. Unfortunately, you can see many people around you whose front line is filled with hair follicles and has an unnatural appearance due to right angles.

4 Direction and angle of transplanted hair

Natural hair growth angles are between 20-25 degrees in the front line and 10-15 degrees in the temple area. These angles continue to increase towards the back. A good result cannot be expected from hair transplantation in a random operation without observing the hair growth angles and directions.

There should be a logical proportion between the size of the area where the hair will be placed and the number of grafts. In other words, the ideal number of grafts should be planted in 1 square centimetre. Sparse hair transplantation does not produce a good result. It is also risky to try to transplant too often in one session. Since both the risk of necrosis increases and the capillary damage that feeds the hair follicles will increase, a large part of the hair may not grow even if transplanted frequently. An ideal density is achieved with 40-50 grafts to be transplanted per 1 square centimetre. If a denser image is targeted and the donor capacity is sufficient, it would be better to have a second session of transplantation after 1 year.

5 Number of grafts transplanted and operation time

The grafts collected in hair transplantation should be transplanted to their new places as soon as possible. Because the time the roots stay outside is limited. Therefore, as the number of grafts increases, the duration of hair transplantation will increase. For this reason, a hair transplantation should be completed within 6-7 hours at most. Because according to what we know from the literature, the rate of loss of hair follicles increases in operations exceeding 8 hours. Therefore, as the time increases, the retention rate of the transplanted hair will decrease and a sparse hair transplantation result will occur.

Generally, 2.000 – 2.500 graft transplantation is completed within 6-7 hours. For this reason, it has become a routine practice in the AHD clinic to divide hair transplantation into 2 consecutive days in graft numbers exceeding this number. For example, in a person who is planned to have 4,000 grafts of hair transplantation, 2000 grafts are taken and transplanted on the first day. On the second day, the same procedure is repeated and 2000 grafts are taken and transplanted. In fact, this is a commercially unfavourable situation. Because we can take another patient and transplant the next day. But we believe that what we do medically is right and we do not compromise on quality.

The reasons we have listed so far are due to the doctor and technician and directly affect the hair transplant result.

6 Technique Used

As you know, FUE and DHI techniques are widely and popularly used in hair transplantation. In fact, it is possible to get a successful result with both techniques if done in accordance with the rules. As AHD clinic, we have been using the DHI method in all our applications such as hair, beard and eyebrow transplantation since 2010. Because of its advantages, we have found that the rate of happiness is higher in those who have hair transplantation with the dhi method. AHD clinic is the first place that comes to mind in Turkey when it comes to implanter pen and dhi hair transplantation.

However, we would like to emphasise the following. The hair transplant pens used in this technique are not a magic wand. The important thing is to use that tool in the best way with technical knowledge and skills.

7 Quality of hair grafts

Let’s keep in mind that even if the same number of grafts are transplanted, a hair transplant will not give the same result in everyone. Each hair follicle taken from the donor area may have a different number of hair follicles. Some grafts may have 1, some 2, some 3, some even 4 or more hair strands. Therefore, let’s consider 3 people with 3000 grafts. Although the number of grafts is the same in these people, the number of hair strands may be 4.000 hair strands in the first person, 6.000 hair strands in the second person and 8.000 hair strands in the third person. Therefore, the hair density of the third person will be twice the first person.

8 Structure and color of the hair

A hair follicle can be thick, thin or normal volume depending on the person. Or it can be straight wavy curly. Thick and wavy hair will of course create a fuller and more intense image. Again, people’s hair can be black, yellow, red, brown or white in colour. It is also normal that there is a difference between the results according to the colour and tone difference in the hair.

The effect of the post-hair transplant period on the results

After hair transplantation, there will be expected complications such as redness, crusting, pain, swelling and shock loss. Most of these are temporary conditions that will disappear with simple measures. Mistakes made especially in the first 10 days of recovery period can negatively affect the hair transplant result.

In addition, especially within 1 month after the operation, you should take the right steps in sports, sexual activity, sleep, sleeping position, swimming, sun protection and hair shaving. Therefore, you should take your doctor’s recommendations into consideration during this period.

In addition, infection may develop in the donor and recipient area if sterilization rules are not followed. If the infection cannot be controlled, the transplanted roots may die. The desired hair density cannot be achieved due to lost follicles.

Evaluation of Before and After Results

The result of a hair transplant operation is personalized. When comparing two people who have hair transplantation, it is necessary to pay attention to the evaluation criteria. Because it is not right to expect the same hair transplant result in everyone. If we give an example;

• In a person with Norwood 3-type hair loss, a very successful image can be obtained with 2500-3000 grafts. However, a good density may not be achieved even with 5000 grafts in a person with a wide opening such as Norwood 6.
• Even if the same number of grafts are transplanted, different results may occur between two people according to criteria such as hair color, hair thickness, wavy or straight hair. In other words, when making comparisons, apples should be compared with apples, not apples with pears.
• Drugs such as Fnastride and Minoksdil used for post-operative support may contribute positively to the result.
