Hair fall is one of the most sensitive cosmetic concerns among people. Surveys have suggested that hair fall has become the most common searched topic and most discussed topic among all cosmetic concern. To resolve the hair fall issues people tend to spend thousands of bucks on cosmetic products and look forward to find and opt for hair loss solutions.

But how to know that whether the hair fall is normal or a sign of early baldness?

Usually you can analyze it quite easily as the normal hair fall includes 50 – 100 hairs per day approximately. When you see large flocks of hairs falling in the sink while head wash, in the comb while combing or on pillow, you can assume it as a wakeup call to look for medical help.

It is wise to rule out the cause of hair loss as early as possible so that you can try to find a way out. Unfortunately the most common cause of hair loss which is genetic influence could not be controlled for progression. Thus, hair transplant seem to be the best and permanent option for those who have become bald to varying extend and desire of coverage to get a youthful look.

Trichophytic closure

Thankfully hair transplant is a minimally invasive cosmetic surgery which is not associated with any sort of morbidity associated with the procedure. It involves taking out of hair follicles from the high density donor area followed by their transplantation at the recipient bald area. The donor area is selected based on the hair density adequacy in the DHT resistant areas. The most common being back and side of the head and other alternative areas includes body hairs.

Procedure of hair transplant

Hair transplant is a précised surgical procedure which requires higher expert skills and is performed under certain steps:

1. Trimming or shaving of hairs as per the demand of the technique: FUT or FUE
2. Local anesthesia is administered at the donor and the recipient area
3. Harvesting of “follicular units” from the safe donor area based on the technique opted: FUT o FUE
4. Implantation site is prepared by slitting procedure as per the requirement of the hairline designing
5. The follicular units are then transplanted in the prepared slits taking care of angulations, arrangement and alignment of the follicles for natural looking hairline.
6. Post operative care, instructions and follow up.

Hair transplant techniques:

Earlier hair transplant had primitive techniques which failed to deliver natural results but now these techniques have become advanced and are successful enough to provide best possible aesthetic results. The modern techniques of hair transplant include:

1. FUT hair transplant (Follicular unit transplantation or strip technique): FUT hair transplant technique has been known as one of the best technique which has many advantages to achieve the extraordinary hair transplant results. This technique is performed by harvesting a thin strip of scalp tissue which is sent to graft segregation room for separating individual graft along with an adequate amount of surrounding tissues. The donor site is then sutured for better healing with help of an advanced technique termed “trichophytic closure”. These harvested hair follicles are then selected based on their aesthetic purpose and transplanted at the desirable recipient area. Each of these procedures is performed under high loop magnification to ensure negligible damage rate to follicular grafts.
2. FUE hair transplant (Follicular unit extraction): FUE hair transplant technique is also a very well known procedure and have their set of indications. The technique involves individual extraction of follicular grafts using a punch like surgical device. These extracted hair grafts after sometime are transplanted at the recipient site. The newer approach involves faster transit of hair follicles to the recipient site using “no root touch technique” but still the damage of pulling the hair follicles underlying the tissues exists.

These hair transplant techniques are decided based on their indications and limitations which can be ruled out as per many factors associated with the individual patient. The factors involved extent of baldness, age of the patient, gender of the patient, number of grafts available/required and hair density of hair follicles at the donor area.

Importance of trichophytic closure in FUT hair transplant technique:

Followed by strip harvesting in FUT technique the donor site is sutured using an advanced technique nowadays which is termed as “Trichophytic closure”. This technique involves slight cutting of the edges of the incision which when sutured are overlapped delivering almost invisible scar line. This almost negligible scar line can be easily hidden behind the natural existing hairs.
