Currently, the most effective way to restore hair in areas where it has stopped growing is with a hair transplant. In most cases, it is in the crown area where hair thinning occurs due to the development of androgenic alopecia and, in these cases, a crown hair transplant is the best option to restore hair in areas with follicular loss.
When we begin to learn about this method, one of the biggest unknowns that concern us is the price of the hair graft in the crown. Next, in the blog de Hospital CapilarWe tell you everything you need to know about the price of this technique, as well as how it is performed and the results it offers.
REVIEWED BY MEDICAL COMMITTEE
Androgenic alopecia, which is the most common of all, especially among men, causes hair miniaturization and subsequent follicular loss. When we talk about follicular loss in the crown, we are referring to the irreversible detachment of the follicular unit, that is, the organ from which the hair grows, generating a lack of density in this area. When this occurs, the hair will not grow back naturally. Therefore, the only way to recover hair on the crown at present is with a hair transplant. Oral and infiltrated treatments for alopecia are aimed at slowing its progression and thickening the miniaturized hair, but they will not make hair grow where there is no longer any.
Hair transplant is effective in restoring hair growth on the crown of the head in patients with alopecia. However, alopecia must be understood as a chronic disease which, without adequate medical treatment, continues to progress, causing hair loss. This is why it is essential to follow the treatment recommended by the medical team to stop hair loss both before and after a hair transplant on the crown of the head, otherwise the patient's native hair will fall out, affecting the result of the hair transplant.
Therefore, hair transplantation on the crown is permanent as long as optimal medical treatment is followed. In patients who decide not to undergo treatment, the native hair will fall out.
La alopecia It is one of the most widespread hair problems in our country and outside of it, as indicated by the Spain alopecia index. The good news is that today there are effective solutions to counteract the effects of alopecia, such as medical hair treatments or hair graft.
The crown is usually one of the most affected areas in cases of male pattern baldness. It usually appears in grade III, according to the hamilton norwood scale, and when the alopecia has not yet spread excessively there is a possibility of change. According to our medical equipment, The crown hair graft is the only method by which it is possible to have hair in the area again..
Crown capillary grafting is usually performed with the FUE technique (Follicular Unit Extraction) since it is the one that offers the most natural results when leave no visible scars. This intervention requires a capillary expert medical team, since we must not forget that it is a surgery that, although outpatient, has certain demands. It consists of the extraction of follicular units, which contain the hair, from the donor area, the one that is not affected by alopecia, to implant them in the area to be treated or recipient area, in this case the crown.
The approximate duration of a crown capillary graft ranges between 6 and 8 hours, depending on the number of follicular units that the medical team determines to be implanted. During the intervention the patient goes through different phases, we will explain them step by step below.
Before surgery, in Hospital Capilar we make a patient hair analysis. It is in this preliminary diagnosis that the medical team determines the viability of the crown hair graft, as well as the number of follicular units to be extracted and the state of health of the scalp.
We must not forget that not everyone is suitable for a hair implantIt will depend on the degree of alopecia in which it is found. It is for this reason that it is important that, before the first signs of baldness, go to a hair clinic where they can advise us.
It is in this capillary analysis where the medical team explains what is necessary to carry out during the hair implant preoperative. This process is necessary to avoid complications during surgery and to guarantee that the scalp is in optimal health conditions, thus guaranteeing an aesthetic result to match.
One of the most important phases of a crown hair transplant is the design. The surgeon marks the extraction and implantation areas, following the patient's physiognomy, and your tastes and preferences.
Doctor and patient agree on which design is better or more natural in each particular case and, respecting the limits set, the surgery is carried out.
El hair implant with FUE technique does not require general anesthesia, local is only used in the areas that are going to be intervened, so The patient remains awake and conscious during the intervention. This phase tends to be the most uncomfortable of the crown graft and, for this reason, in Hospital Capilar We have pre-anesthesia with which we reduce the pain of anesthesia itself considerably.
Once the anesthesia has taken effect, the medical team performs the individual extraction of the necessary follicular units. This is done in the occipital-temporal area of the head, known as the donor area, which is not affected by alopecia. The extraction of follicles is done with a micromotor punch, which, together with good technique from the operating room team, does not damage the area or leave visible scars.
When the follicular unit extraction phase is complete, the surgeon makes the incisions on the crown of the head. This moment requires a lot of skill on the part of the doctor, since it proceeds to open the channels in which the hair is grafted. To do this, you must respect, among other things, the angle of hair growth to obtain the most natural results possible.
En Hospital Capilar incisions are made with sapphire scalpel, which reduces bleeding, allows for better angulation, improves final density and helps the scalp heal. It also allows for closer incisions to be made without damaging the follicular unit.
The last step with which the crown capillary graft is completed is the implantation phase of the follicular units. The health team introduces the previously extracted follicles into the incisions one by one.
To guarantee optimal results, it is essential to follow a good postoperative Otherwise, complications could arise that could put the survival of the grafts at risk. To do this, you must follow medical instructions such as taking the prescribed medication, avoiding direct sun exposure during the first few months, keeping the area clean and moisturized, and avoiding manipulating or touching the grafts during the first few days.
En Hospital Capilar We will solve all your doubts and we will accompany you throughout the process with periodic check-ups, cures and post-surgery medical treatments.
One of the questions that usually interest us the most when we find ourselves informing ourselves about this procedure is the price of a hair implantThe cost of this technique varies depending on each hair clinic, as there are clinics that vary the price depending on the number of follicular units the patient needs, while others work with fixed prices. The usual price is between 2.000 and 4.000 euros.
The results The final results of a hair implant occur one year after the intervention, although it is after 6 months when the first changes can already be seen. However, the final results of a crown hair graft take a little longer for various reasons, reaching up to 18 months after surgery.
