Hair transplantation

We plan your hair transplant in such a way as to deliver you a natural and dense look as much as possible. You can get a much more aesthetic and dynamic look by having a hair transplant.

Hair transplantation

Hair transplant surgery is a procedure that aims to restore the growth of hair to areas of the scalp that are either experiencing hair loss or thinning. Both recent advances in technology and the use of follicular unit grafts have paved the way for the development of new innovative hair transplant procedures.
Doctors at Ames utilize Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) to help you achieve the best results for you personally:

Follicular unit extraction (FUE)

These days, both men and woman who are experiencing hair loss can undergo a hair transplant and be given natural looking hair with the use of an FUE procedure. This procedure is patient friendly as it leaves no scarring on the scalp and has a relatively short recovery time. Thanks to advances in the medical technology utilized during this procedure, the success rate has also increased dramatically. During the procedure a thin needle called a punch is utilized to remove hair from the donor area (usually located at the nape of the head) and then the hair is transplanted using either the Sapphire FUE method or DHI method as required. As the patient will be under local anesthesia, he/she will feel no pain.

Stages of hair transplant

Stage one: Drawing of the hairline and shaving of the head
Stage two: The application of local anesthesia (general anesthesia may be requested).
Stage three: Grafts are taken from the donor area.
Stage four: Canals in the scalp are made with a sapphire blade.
Stage five: The hair is transplanted into the desired areas.

FUE hair transplant techniques

1) Sapphire FUE method

A special sapphire blade (so named as the blade is made from sapphire) is used to open “channels” in the scalp area prior to the transplantation of hair. When compared to more traditional steel blades, sapphire blades keep their sharp edge for longer periods of time.

2) DHI Method

This is a variation of the FUE method. The hair follicles are initially collected from the donor area with the use of a micro-motor and then transplanted to the transplant area. One of the most important differences between this and any other method is that hair is transplanted back into the scalp using a special medical device called a “Choi pen”.

What to do before the procedure:

  • • Do not use any type of blood thinner such as aspirin for 5 days before the procedure.
  • • For the same reason, avoid drinking herbals teas or taking herbal supplements as they may have blood thinning properties.
  • • Avoid consuming alcohol as this may reduce the effectiveness of the local anesthetics used during the procedure.
  • • Avoid smoking in any shape or form as this inhibits blood flow to the scalp.
  • • On the day of the procedure, make sure you wear a shirt or similar type of garment that can be fastened at the front and does not need to be worn over the head.

What to do after the procedure:

  • • You may return home as soon as the procedure is complete. You will not be required to stay in hospital over night.
  • • You should get plenty of rest and minimize everyday activities until the day after the procedure.
  • • Swelling may occur especially around the forehead area and occassionally around the eyes. This is totally normal and will usually subside in time leaving no permanent or future problems.
  • • For the first 3 nights after the procedure, you should sleep with your head elavated at a 45 degree angle with the help of a pillow.

Working and exercising after the procedure

  • • Avoid over working or any type of exercise for one week after the procedure.
  • • Avoid weight lifting or carrying things for 10-14 days after the procedure.
  • • Avoid any swimming pools, saunas and solariums
  • • Avoid any kind of sexual activity for at least 1 month after the procedure.

  • • You are permitted to wash your hair 48 hrs after the procedure as long as you strictly follow the intructions given to you by either your physician or consultant.
  • • Do not directly wash the transplant area with the use of a shower or tap.
  • • Washing itself should also be done very gently. The best method is to squeeze a little shampoo into your hand, lather it up well between your hands, and then carefully rub it into your hair.
  • • Be careful not to scrub too much as this may dislodge the transplant grafts.
  • • Be careful not to dislodge grafts with your finger nails.
  • • Try to avoid using hair dryers for at least 2 weeks.
  • • Hair products such as mousse and hair spray can be used a week after the procedure but they shouıld be washed out daily.
  • • Hair colouring, perming or cutting the hair may be done once all the scabbing has been removed.

Scabbing

  • • Scabs will usually fall off in 7 – 10 days though sometimes this can last longer.
  • • Applying ointment such as Aquaphoror Bacitracin or Polysporin can be applied in order to soften scabs if they are prominent. However, as these are oil based you may wish to consider the use of K-Y jelly instead as this is water based.

Will the hair that I have had transplanted fall out?

It is totally normal for the hair that has been transplanted to appear to fall out a few weeks after the procedure. This, however, is nothing to worry about as any hair lost will regrow between 3-4 months later. Once this has happened, the hair follicles will grow back maintaing the look they had before.

The procedure may last anywhere between 5-8 hours.

The procedure itself is best suited for body sculpting as opposed to weight loss.

Other procedures available for him.

The world of cosmetic surgery is no longer one dominated by women. Each year the number of men looking into having a plastic or cosmetic procedure done has increased dramatically. These procedures may be surgical such as those discussed above, or they may be non-surgical such as btx and medical grade fillers. Below is a list of procedures often sought after by our male patients. Some of them can be done in conjunction with each other and others can only be done alone. To find out what combination of procedures can be done please contact one of our patient coordinators. We have also included some of the most basic packages that we have to offer.

Liposuction

As we age, our body begins to change and those pockets of fat that we were once able to just burn off now stubbornly remain no matter how much exercise we do. Liposuction is a procedure that can help eliminate those pockets of fat and thus help reshape your body. During this procedure a device known as a cannula is inserted in the fatty area below the epidermis so that it can suck out any unwanted fat. The areas treated most common by our male patients include the tummy, waist, back, chest chin and arms.

Six pack fat transfer.

Are you tired of the incredible amount of exercise that is required to maintain a well defined six pack? Then a six pack fat transfer may just be the thing for you. To begin with, your surgeon will remove as much fat that is needed from either your tummy, waist or thighs using liposuction and then reinject this fat directly into the muscles of the abdomen to give the appearance of a natural looking six pack without the exercise and sweat.

Tummy tuck, thigh lift and arm lift.

Occassionally, a patient may have so much fatty build up in a particular area that a simple liposuction procedure is no longer enough as by doing liposuction alone, the patient will be left with an excess of saggy skin. A tummy tuck, thigh lift and arm lift are all procedures that remove this excess skin after liposuction has been applied so that the patient is left with skin which is much tighter and less saggy.

Hair transplant fort he beard and moustache.

The scalp is not the only place that we have hair on. Many men also suffer low self esteem from having a patchy and sometimes even asymmetrical beard or moustache. At Ames, by using the sapphire FUE technique, we are also able to transplant hair to both the beard and moustache in order to give them a much fuller body and a more defined contour.
