Baldness, hair thinning have been a common problem and the growing need to look good in the current time have led to many options available for hair related problems.  We can see many cosmetic centers, saloons and clinics which have given the customers endless options but these have also led to confusion in their mind regarding which is better for them as no one wants to go wrong and then repent for the rest of their life. 

Firstly, what do you know about Hair Replacement and Hair Transplant? Both are the solution for the problem of baldness but are poles apart when it comes to procedure, price, and results.

Hair Replacement

A process in which Patch, wig or extension made from Natural or Synthetic hair is fixed on the scalp which May be done with the help of glue, tape, clips etc. This procedure is done by cosmetologist.

Hair Transplant

The treatment is done by a Doctor or plastic surgeon to treat baldness by moving hair from the growth area or donor to the bald area which is usually taken from the back or side of the head.

  • It is a surgical treatment.
  • Hair transplants typically done in a medical office under local anesthesia.
  • Costly in comparison to hair Replacement.
  • Two main types – FUSS & FUE
  • Have to wait for months for the result.

Will Hair Transplant be beneficial for you?

People with the problem of baldness or hair thinning benefits from this treatment but there are certain facts that you must know. A patient needing a hair transplant must be healthy person without any major medical issues. Also, the reason for receding hair is very important because it can bring hair fall again after transplant is done. In these cases hair transplant fails and don’t give the desired result. The success of hair transplant depends on number of factors, like a surgeon’s skill & experience, also depending on the thickness of the donor hair.
According to a study by, American Society Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), hair transplantation can only provide a slight change in hair fullness. Don’t keep hope that you will have dense hair growth or drastic changes as for that people should opt for skin flap surgery, tissue expansion or scalp reduction. People opting for hair transplant should have lots of patience as there is months of waiting required to see the result. Sometimes, new hair too suffers hair loss or more months of waiting. This states that if you think hair transplant is a permanent solution then you still lack knowledge about it and need to do a lot more home work.

Should I Go For Hair Replacement?

If in hair replacement you have nothing to gain then you have nothing to lose either.  I would not recommend anyone using patch or wig made from synthetic hair as they can be easily recognized because of their quality and give a very unnatural look.

The patch or wig made from natural hair is what hair replacement all about, which is done by cosmetologist.  A celebrity Hair expert & cosmetologist Mr. Biswajit Sahoo who owns four centers in Delhi of Hair Replacement (Hair Replacement Solutions) has cleared many doubts about numerous myths regarding Hair Replacement.

Even if we talk about Hair replacement myths to be true then too small issues such as itching, sweat are all very small in comparison to transplant which have injections, before & after medications, long wait, repeated hair loss, skin damage and other side effects with no guarantee of the end result.

Hair Patch, wigs and extensions, all can be customized according to the need size of the customers. A plus point is as these are not customer’s original hair they can be easily styled or colored without the need to worry about original hair getting permanently damaged or turning grey.

I hope now you will be able to decide what will be a good option for you Hair Transplant or Hair Replacement.
