Blog1Image

Hair transplantation is an art and not to be called a major surgical process, hair transplant Surgeons need to be precise and accurate to deliver artistic hairlines and fill up other areas of the scalp with extracted follicles from the donor site. Not all hair transplants have a 100% success rate. It may go wrong when the procedure is carried out by unskilled professionals, in non-accredited clinics. These cases can be fixed as well, precisely the client should have enough donor capacity, which can be used by the expert repair surgeon. We will discuss in this blog, why hair transplants fail and how they can be repaired.

Why do hair transplants fail?

The hair transplants fail, if a significant number of the transplanted hairs do not establish in the new location and grow normally and permanently following the recovery period. There are specific reasons why some hair transplants fail, but they generally fall into two categories: either the transplant wasn’t performed properly (or wasn’t acceptable) in the first place, or the client failed to follow the post-procedure guidelines. In rare instances, the failure may be caused by both of these factors. What can go wrong?

The reasons for hair transplant failure due to surgeons can be

  • Overharvesting
  • Poor hairline design
  • Insufficient or incomplete transplants
  • Incompetent or inexperienced surgeons
  • Unnecessary scarring
  • Client unsuitability

The reasons for hair transplant failure due to individuals can be

  • Not taking sufficient care of newly transplanted hair follicles
  • Poor hygiene practices that may cause infection
  • Scratching the scalp that results in scarring or dislodging of implants
  • Lack of aftercare practices

Techniques to fix failed hair transplants

The latest technique of graft camouflage is used to fix bad hair transplants. You can also go for a second hair transplant surgery if you have enough donor area. Graft camouflage refers to the implantation of follicular units around and between old hair graft plugs and slit marks. By concealing these locations, the previous grafts are covered. Individuals achieve far more natural-looking hair restoration results after this procedure.

Graft Camouflage procedure

The Ice cell Sapphire micro Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique is used by Max hair clinic surgeons in South India to transplant new grafts around the spotty portions of the hairline. The distribution of the grafts will be staggered in order to conceal the plugs and enhance the overall density of hair along the hairline. The number of grafts required will vary based on the needs of each individual. This technique also fixes hair transplantation scars.

Precautions after hair transplantation

Taking extra care of newly transplanted follicles in the days following the procedure is suggested. How well someone takes care of themselves after a hair transplant can have a big effect on how well it works. Maintain healthy recovery and care behaviors while the hair becomes established, which can take up to a year following a hair transplant. Choose a facility with a full follow-up service to ensure that you’re doing all the proper things to support your fragile new hair and to receive prompt remedial care if something goes wrong. Repairing a failed hair transplant is possible. It can be done by employing the Ice cell Sapphire micro FUE hair transplantation method which includes the use of the latest technology sapphire pin to create precise incisions.
