Have you ever wished you could have a full, lush head of hair? Do you look at other men or women with envy because you were cursed with bald spots or thinning hair? Don’t be jealous, because with a hair transplant you can have your very own head of thick hair. And it won’t fall out in the shower anymore. A natural hair transplant can look so real, nobody not even family will be able to detect if it’s your own actual hair. Hair grafts are a fairly common procedure when performing this type of cosmetic surgery. If there is nowhere to find hair for a graft on your scalp, you may receive a donor graft which is hair in strips.

Before your surgery, your doctor will discuss with you what types of hair grafts he will use and how he will perform the surgery specifically for you. He will advise you of risks, complications, and guarantees. The pricing will be discussed and a payment plan set up as well at the initial consultation.When undergoing the surgery for a hair transplant, the hair is drafted onto the scalp and covered with your own tissue. Other hair transplant procedures  may also be included for the most natural look possible. Due to hair construction, a graft must fit perfectly. Some hair is naturally course, others curly or wavy. To affix the most compatible hair graft for your scalp, you will be looking at samples and deciding along with your plastic surgeon which will suit you best.

After your hair transplant especially if you had the least invasive procedure a speedy recovery is possible with very minimal risks. You will be advised to leave your hair unwashed for at least 24 hours because hair follicles are quite fragile, and you don’t want to dislodge them. You may develop scabs at the site of the grafts, which is perfectly normal as long as they do not become infected. For at least two weeks, you should stay out of the sun completely, do not engage in contact sports, and rest as much as possible in a chair that reclines. You also may sleep in your own bed as long as you use two soft pillows. Once your hair grafts have healed within two to three weeks, you may lighten your new hair if desired.Purchasing one of the department store hair lightening kits is optimal, because everything needed is included. Such as the brush, comb, plastic gloves, and instructions on how light you wish your hair to be. Some people prefer highlighting by brushing on the product on only a few hairs in the front of the head. No matter what you decide, enjoy your new full head of hair.
