What is the use of spending a lot of money, time, and effort if the results of a Hair Transplant are not permanent? Well, before declaring the results of a hair transplant permanent, it deems necessary to define the permanent. How permanent is really permanent?
Nothing stays the same, and it isequally true for our hair. Our hair will become weak and thin with time – we know. Then how is it possible for our transplanted hair to stayon our head permanently? Let us first discuss why it is safe to declare hair transplant results permanent.
Baldness affects most men, and many women, on certain areas of the head. Actually, hair at the hairline (front) and crown (top) of our head are most fragile and susceptible to hair loss.These are the first hairs, which are affected by hormonal changes in our body and start falling.
On the other hand, hair at the back and sides of our head are tough. The resist to environmental and hormonal stress and do not fall quickly. You can observe this fact in your daily life, men with bald heads but a strip of hair at the sides and back of their heads!
Hair transplant takes advantage of this fact efficiently. A hair transplant extracts these balding resistant hairs from the head and plants them into the affected area. Fortunately, these transplanted hairs do not adopt the characteristics of the affected area. That’s why they retain their balding resistant characteristics and stay at the transplanted site for a long period of time.
Back to our question, are they permanent? If the answer is yes, how permanent.The life of transplanted hair depends on the strength of donor hair. Many men’s hair at the sides and back of the headare so resistant to baldness that they last for a lifetime, while others will lose transplanted hair eventually. But even if they lose hair, they will lose it after many years of good use!
So, it is safe to declare the results of a hair transplant permanent, but the exact life of the transplant depends on the life of donor hairs.
