Hereditary baldness normally concentrates on the front and top region of the scalp.
This leaves the hair in the rear region as good quality donor hair. Maximally, a 16 cm by 1, 5 cm skin patch will be surgically removed. The scalp is numbed with a local anaesthetic. Intravenous or oral sedation can be considered.
| MICRO-SURGERY Under visual magnification, the hair follicles are individually dissected from the donor patch.
This is performed by our team of well trained doctors and nurses. |
|
Micro-surgical dissection of the donor strip, in a professional way,
is essential to have a successful transplant result. |
|
| We cut the harvested donor strip into single or multiple follicle units. Single follicle units are to be transplanted to the front hairline.
Multiple-follicle units (2 to 4 follicles) are used in the upper areas of the scalp, to get more density. |

| The hair restoration surgeon implants each graft individually into the balding scalp. The procedure is labour-intensive.
It requires 3 to 5 medical and paramedical specialists.
Surgery lasts 2 to 6 hours. |

3000 hairs in one session!
The Yoskarn Clinic is specialized in the micro-surgical approach of hair transplantation. We can implant up to 1000 small grafts of follicular units in one session only. This can be the equivalent of 3000 single hairs !
The result of micro implant surgery is very natural-looking. This technique makes the procedure almost unnoticeable to others.
The scar at the donor site - a straight line - is hidden between the remaining hairs. Due to the use off new surgical closure-techniques – trichophyt scar closure-, the fine line scar will be as good as invisible after a few months.
After surgery, the small wounds will develop a scab for about ten days. From the outset, you will notice hair growth, however this is only temporary.

After 3 monthsmost of the implanted hairs have dropped out;
thereafter begins the permanent growth. In 9 to 12 months
the new hair will develop to a good length. |
