Large-volume transplant possible with non-incision 'smart hair transplant'… "Should be considered if the forehead line has risen upward"
Recently, cases of men in their 30s and 40s stressed by 'M-shaped' hair loss have been increasing. M-shaped hair loss is a symptom in which the front hairline gradually recedes in the shape of the letter M. It mainly occurs in men, with family history, excessive stress, poor dietary habits, and lack of sleep cited as risk factors. In fact, there are many people who consider a men's hairline hair transplant due to M-shaped hair loss.
In the early stages of M-shaped hair loss, one feels that more hair is falling out than usual. Afterward, the hair around the hairline of the M-shaped area is experienced to become thinner. As it progresses further, the hair thins and turns into fuzz-like strands before being lost.
The biggest risk factor for M-shaped hair loss is a genetic cause. The male hormone testosterone is converted by 5-alpha reductase, interfering with hair growth and the maintenance of healthy hair. The hair loss symptoms gradually appearing from the front of the forehead is because that area is most strongly affected by male hormones.
If hair loss symptoms are in the early stages, improvement can be expected through lifestyle improvements and medication treatment. However, if hair loss has already progressed and hair is sparse, it is difficult to improve through simple medication treatment alone. The procedure performed in this case is the men's hairline hair transplant.
A men's hairline hair transplant can be considered not only for an M-shaped forehead but also when the forehead line has risen upward, when the connection between the front and side lines is unnatural after a previous hair transplant surgery, when the sideburns are sparse making the face look wide, and when there is an irregular hairline.
In particular, the point is that it can be performed with a smart non-incision hair transplant, a non-incision method rather than an incision method. An incision-method hairline hair transplant is performed through the process of separating and harvesting hair follicles after incising the scalp. Follicle damage is minimal, but incision scars occur.
The smart non-incision hair transplant uses a patented dedicated clipper to secure hair follicles of uniform density and length, reducing concerns about follicle damage and scarring while enabling large-volume transplantation. It raises satisfaction through a natural hair transplant. In addition, through a real-time microscope monitoring and hair-count counting system, a transparent surgical process is provided in real time. This is a positive factor that in turn raises patient trust.
A hair transplant is a precise and meticulous surgery, and even after transplanting hair located at the back of the head, hair loss can reappear at any time. Choosing the medical team well is important, so before a hair transplant it is essential to examine matters carefully through consultation with the attending physician.
