Losing your hair at any age can be highly traumatic and affect your self-confidence. It is so important to feel comfortable in your skin to be your best self. Many people will try so many different things to bring their hair back after losing it, but sometimes, the only option is, is a hair transplant procedure.

FUE/FUT Hair TransplantHair transplantation is a type of surgery where hair follicles are taken from one part of the body that has viable follicles, and it is moved to the area of the scalp in need of more follicles. This is a very common procedure, and it has been performed since the 1950s. This is not a very invasive procedure, and it typically happens in the hair transplant doctor’s clinic and not a hospital. The surgeon will start by injecting you with medicine to numb the scalp. There are two different methods for these types of transplants, one called FUT (Follicular unit transplant) or strip surgery; with this type of transplant, the surgeon will remove a six-to-ten-inch section of the skin from the back of the scalp just below the occipital bone, and then with the help from a special microscope, the technicians will separate these follicles into tiny units, to then be transplanted/inserted into the desired area on the scalp. Another type of hair replacement surgery is called FUE (follicular unit extraction); for this procedure, the surgeon will shave the scalp, and then they will remove the hair follicles one by one. The surgeon will then place the grafts into the desired area. Depending on the size of the transplant, this procedure typically takes anywhere from four to eight hours and leaves no linear scar.

The procedures mentioned above are not a quick fix by any means, but the results can be excellent. According to WebMD, the price of a hair transplant can vary based on how much hair you decide to move and from which geographical area you have the procedure performed, but the cost can range from $4,000 to $15,000. Nevertheless, a transplant procedure is undoubtedly a viable option for people struggling with hair loss, and it affects your confidence.

If this is affecting your everyday confidence, taking different supplements and vitamins that are not working may be the best choice for you. You also need to have enough healthy hair on the scalp to be transplanted. If you find yourself wearing hats every day to cover the hair loss, not wanting to go out in public, and just a general lack of confidence due to your given hair loss, then this is maybe the perfect procedure for you.
