Hair Transplant Injury Attorney
Men and women who are losing their hair from age, trauma or medications related to a disease, feel less confident and secure with hair that falls out every day from their head. People look at hair transplants in a new way these days, and it is a viable option for men and women with thinning hair or who are losing their hair at any age.
What Is a Hair Transplant?A hair transplant offers the opportunity for someone losing his, her or their hair to have hair restored to their head. The hair transplantation process is performed as a surgical procedure, whereby there are circular punches made to take skin grafts from the scalp, which than puts in hair follicles into the area to promote the growth of new hair.2 In general, human hair grows in groupings in the scalp, and a person’s hair density can be different among different ethnic groups. Some hair is straight, some curly at the root, and other people have combination hair follicles. The hair that is transplanted to a person for a hair transplant surgery, will come from a donor with the same type of hair for harvesting a donor strip, that is transplanted from the donor zone to the recipient’s hair zone. The procedure of a hair transplantation is usually part of the process to help a person grow new hair, and is usually not the last step in getting more hair from someone losing hair for medical or non-medical reasons. There may be medication that the individual with a hair transplant needs to take, more hair transplant grafts, and it can be a lifelong process to start growing new hair on someone’s head again.
