It is a fact that all those hair transplant procedures which have been performed by uncertified physicians and doctors prove to show 95% unsuccessful results. We all know that this treatment is all about giving your hair loss a proper solution under surgical procedures. But still,some people do have a question whether this treatment is safe for them or not!
The main question is why the transplant procedure is bad? Well, the answer to this question can be derived from all those patients who have experienced unsuccessful results or have lost more hairs. Every patient will have their side effects and results based on which they will build a separate image of hair restoration treatment.
Why is hair transplant a bad idea?
If you have experienced wrong results out of the hair restoration surgery, then it is not just the fault of the surgeon. You can also encounter side effects if you have not given your procedure proper care and attention which they need after the transplant treatment.
A wrongly done treatment can cause so many issues which include health complications, infections, and other health problems. The unlicensed and uncertified surgeon will never ensure their patients about the sterility of the surgery environment. Moreover, the wrong dosage of the lidocaine sedative or adrenaline can also cause harmful results for the patient’s well-being. It is just the licensed surgeon who completely knows how to perform the whole procedure of the transplant and how to guide the patient about the post-care tips. Therefore, it is extremely important to be careful about the selection of the best and professional doctor/surgeon for the hair implant procedure
The following points should be considered:
1. There are not enough hairs. If you are spending $40,000 into it, you will just be getting back 25% of the original hair density which means just 7,500 grafts. This is nothing but just a waste of money.
2. Hairs will get thin with age. If you are undergoing the surgery at the age of 30, then it won’t show the same cosmetic impact as you get older. They will eventually look like unmanageable weeds.
3. The donor area will also thin over time. This is one such horrible truth about the transplant treatment which no surgeon shares with you. Hairs at the backside of your head will also get thin in texture.
4. Few procedures such as FUE are having lower yields as compared to strips and will host some other basic risks as well. You won’t be getting your old hairs back even after the restoration of hair treatment. However due to advancement of follicular unit extraction technique , yield of the procedure can be be compared with FUT or strip procedure.
Has anyone died from a hair transplant?
Although this whole process of transplanting your hair is considered to be safe still there are some sort of potential risks or side effects which you can experience. Till now, the reports of the deaths that happened due to this procedure are quite less and rare. Most of the cases have been reported due to the underlying health condition.
In India, 43 years old businessman, Shrawan Kumar underwent surgery of hair implantation after which he started facing some allergic reactions. Due to such a harsh allergic reaction, he could not survive. He went for surgery at a private clinic in Mumbai.
What does a bad hair transplant look like?
Undergoing the bad hair restoration surgery will cause a few undesirable results out of which few of the results are few much obvious. You will also experience excessive scarring or unnatural hairline as well as noticeable implant clusters.
If the surgeon is inexperienced, then possibly they will over-harvest the same area of your scalp during the FUE procedure. This will leave behind suboptimal amounts of little hair over the donor sites. During the FUT, excision can be made over the visible location that somehow creates a small noticeable scar, even with the surrounding hair growth.
In short, under a bad hair transplant treatment, it becomes so difficult for the person to create a natural-looking growth of hairline on the scalp. Natural healthy growth of the hairline is the real sign of successful treatment.
How painful is hair transplant surgery?
Due to the local anesthesia as well as post-operative pain medications, you won’t experience any sort of pain throughout the whole transplant procedure. Although it is not 100% pain-free because you will feel a little discomfort and numbness after the surgery has been completed. And this discomfort will last for a few days. But for the majority of the patients, this whole treatment proves to be a pleasant experience.
Scalp pain will probably last for maximum of a few days in the starting stages. After two days it will end up. Although, you will observe some sort of post-surgical marks over at the transplantation area which is not painful at all!
