Hair Transplant Toronto

 

Premature balding and a receding hairline can add years to your actual age. Long or short, straight or curly, having a full head of hair contributes to an attractive physical appearance.

Comb-overs and wigs don't fool anyone. Contact a cosmetic surgeon for a permanent solution to balding with a hair transplant.

At cosmetic surgical centres, several types of hair transplant procedures are offered to preserve existing hair, and stimulate the growth of new hair.

 

Types of Hair Transplant Surgery

A common hair transplant procedure involves replacing bald areas with thin strips of skin containing hair, removed from the scalp. These strips of hair are placed in tiny holes that have been formed by lasers in the target areas. Following this type of hair transplant procedure, the transplanted hair does shed, however new hair will grow in. This new hair will last as long as that of in the area from which it was taken.

Scalp reduction involves the removal of all or part of the bald scalp skin during surgery. Skin on the head that is covered in hair is then lifted and pulled together. Occasionally, tissue expanders or scalp extenders are used.

A surgically created flap of skin with hair is used for another type of Toronto hair transplant procedure. This is rotated onto the target area to eliminate balding.

Drugs such as Minoxidil and Finasteride may also be applied to the scalp as a treatment for hair loss, or can be used in conjunction with other types of hair transplants.
