The population is aging and with that more men are becoming bald. In past generations this did not make very much difference. But in this baby boomer generation hair loss is not acceptable. You can find hundreds of methods that claim to re-grow your hair. There are hair growth drugs, natural remedies, lasers, and hair implants. Of these I think the hair implants are the most successful and offer the most chance for success.
Hair implants got a bad rap when they were first used in the 1950’s. At that time they were called hair plugs and that is what they looked like. The old procedure involved removing a patch of the scalp that still had hair growth and transplanting it into the bald spot. This resulted in a result that looked like little hair islands sticking up in a sea of baldness. Needless to say they results looked worse than being bald.
There were very few advances in the technique until the late 80’s with the advent of micro-surgery. By the 1990’s these micro techniques had revolutionized the hair implant methods. The advent of micro-transplantation surgery really revolutionized this procedure.
Now with this process it is not necessary to take a portion of scalp as the donor strip. Doctors can now transplant individual hair follicles and reinsert them where they need to be. This gives a clean appearance with no scarring from the scalp removal procedure. Also, the doctor can place the hair implants in such a way that they match the surround hair perfectly in the way they lay on the head. This is huge because now the hair transplanting is unnoticeable.
If you are contemplating doing something about your thinning hair or your baldness you really need to look into hair implants. The old hair plugs like your father got are no more. Instead, the new process allows for a cleaner, better looking result. Don’t give your friends a reason to joke about your baldness any more. Check out how the new hair plugs look today.
