As with all facial plastic surgery, good
health and realistic expectations are prerequisites. Understanding
the limitations of the surgery is crucial. No ideal in
hair replacement surgery exists. The goal is to improve
your appearance as much as possible.
Male pattern baldness often begins with
a receding hairline or thinning at the crown and is the
easiest condition to correct. This condition is progressive
over a lifetime. Hair replacement surgery frequently requires
multiple grafts of hair being implanted during multiple
sessions, generally spacing each session at least four
months apart to allow for adequate healing.
Dr. Smith will explain which type of
anesthesia is indicated. Local or twilight anesthesia is
used for grafting. For the more involved surgical hair
replacement procedures, general
anesthesia may be used.
