Botched Hair Transplant Surgery - You Can Avoid It
By HTInfo
If you are suffering from hair loss, you have probably looked around on the Internet to find solutions to your problem. One possible solution that you have probably come across, is a hair transplant. While hair transplants can improve your situation, some of them will leave your head botched. For this reason, it is important to do your research before you get one.
With a hair transplant, a strip of tissue containing follicles is taken from the back of your head. This is done by excising it. The doctor will use a scalpel to literally cut a strip from the back of your head.
The hair transplant horror stories on the Internet are numerous. The farther back in time you go, the more nightmarish stories you will find. Back in the old days, people went to a hair transplant clinic without knowing anything about the skills and their previous track record. They ended up getting the dreaded doll hair effect on top of their heads, where horribly ugly hair plugs were growing from quarter inch deep scarring. As if that wasn’t enough, the scar in the back of their heads would also heal up real bad and leave them with constant pain and discomfort.
You’d think these types of horror scenarios don’t exist anymore, but they do. You may have heard somebody come out with it somewhere, but most people keep it to themselves. They are usually ashamed of it, afraid that people will laugh at them. And it can happen to anybody who decides to have a hair transplant. You might become a botched hair transplant victim yourself. So the price for taking the plunge while uninformed is quite high.
It definitely pays off to do your research in advance. When you are eying a certain clinic for getting your hair transplant done, make sure you have looked up reviews of the clinic online. Who can better tell you about what’s going on inside the clinic than people who have already been there to get a hair transplant. Also make sure you research the general reputation of the clinic and try to find out as much information on the doctors working there as you can.
Once you have informed yourself enough, you will know. Your gut feeling will tell you. So listen to it. This is no small decision. Think it through and spend as much time on your research as you feel you must. I promise you… you won’t regret it.

And many, many more celebrities… have all had hair transplants.
Indeed, hair transplants have gone mainstream in the last few years. With public figures such as the above celebrities openly talking about their cosmetic surgery, it was expected that this would happen.
Many people read the magazines and see handsome celebrities with plenty of hair on their heads, and compare themselves to them. It makes them feel inferior, but unrightfully so.
It only goes to show that celebrities are people too. They have their weaknesses and their insecurities. And as you can see they are surely not escaping hairloss just because they happen to be rich and famous.
There is no reason to beat yourself up over your baldness, as it is not your fault and it can happen to everybody. Don’t feel ashamed for wanting your hair back, either. It is in our human nature to want to look good and be physically desirable to others.
Thanks to today’s modern technology, it is possible to do something about it. If it will make you feel better about yourself, then it’s worth looking into.
Hopefully, Hair Transplant Info helps you to make a decision or at least gives you a starting point for your personal research.

Hair Transplants - What Is The Cost?
By HTInfo
As with all technology, the quality of hair transplants has much improved and cost has been coming down.
Indeed, the future for people suffering from hair loss looks bright.
Hair transplants have long ago gone mainstream, and the fierce competition in this business today has also driven costs down significantly.
The price you will pay today for a hair transplant all depends on the number of grafts you require.
A graft is a unit of tissue that contains either 1, 2, 3 or 4 follicles. The grafts are produced by dissecting a strip of tissue that is excavated from the back of your head, where DHT-resistant hair follicles grow.
In the past, it wasn’t uncommon to pay $15 for just one graft. Today, this cost has come down to $3-$8 per graft. The average is about $5 or $6. The price of grafts also come down with bigger hair transplants.
Since you are likely to need a few hundred grafts, you can imagine that it pays off to look around before you decide to buy.
The number of grafts you will need is determined by the size of the area you want covered and the desired density of the hair.
A small area, such as a hairline that is receding at the temples, can be restored with very acceptable density with as little as 500-750 grafts.
Bigger hair transplants can get up to 3000 grafts per surgery session. This amount of grafts can cover a rather large area. But it is still wise to not spread the grafts over too big an area, since this will be at the cost of density and can yield unnatural results.
The larger your bald area, the more grafts you will require. It is advised to think well about which area you would like to have restored. You must always keep in mind the fact that:
- it is possible to lose more hair in the future
- there is a limit to the amount of follicles that can be harvested from the back of your head
Keeping these two factors in mind when considering hair restoration surgery, is very important.
In most cases, you can have a moderately sized bald area restored with very nice density for as little as $5000,0.
The results are usually natural and last you a lifetime.
The cost of, say, a hairpiece far exceeds the cost of hair transplants in the long run.

Welcome To The Hair Transplant Info Site
By HTInfo
Thanks for visiting the Hair Transplant Info site.
This website aims to inform those who are considering a hair transplant.
A hair transplant is no laughing matter. Even though the invasiveness of the surgical procedure has been brought to a minimum, it is still an operation that involves incisions.
In a hair transplant, a small piece of tissue is excavated from the back of a person’s head. The hair on the back of your head is not susceptible to the ravages of the DHT hormone, which makes people go bold.
When transplanted to other areas of the head, these DHT resistant follicles will eventually grow naturally in their new location.
Results vary from person to person. It is important that you do your research in order to get an estimate of how many follicles you would need to have transplanted, and also where you would need to have them transplanted.
Usually, it is a bad idea to transplant follicles near where your hairline used to be. After all, it is likely that as you get older your hairline will recede further. You don’t want to be forced into getting more hair transplants as your hairline recession progresses.
Therefore, it is safe to take into account your expected hair situation a few years into the future.
If you want to know what your hair will look like in the future, have a look at the males in your mother’s side of the family. This is usually a good indicator of the baldness pattern that you will experience yourself.
Hair transplants have improved much over the years. It is not a new procedure. It was already being done decades ago, but the results usually gave people the dreaded “doll hair effect”.
Today, hair transplant surgeons make use of modern lasers that cut very accurately and allow for the precise placement of single follicles. Overall, this technique yields very natural results. It also makes the procedure a lot quicker and cheaper than it was back in the old days.
As the years progress, it is expected that hair restoration technology will improve, making it ever more accessible to the public.
But as with any cosmetic surgery: make sure to be informed before actually undergoing such a procedure!
