I'm Kwon Oh-sung, president of the Four Hair Clinic specializing in non-cut slits.    "I'm going to get a hair transplant. Don't you lose hair once you plant it for the rest of your life?"If the hair transplant surgery is stable, once planted, the hair does not fall out semi-permanently.Of course, the natural hair aging phenomenon that comes over time cannot be avoided, but if the "incubation rate" of the transplanted hair follicles is high, the transplanted hair can be kept semi-permanently healthy.On average, there are about 100,000 hair follicles on the human scalp, of which hair in the back and sides of the head often remains until late despite normal hair loss. Therefore, hair transplantation is carried out by collecting healthy hair follicles in the occipital region of the person and transplanting them into the hair loss area. Can some people use someone else's hair if they lack their own occipital hair? Isn't your family's hair okay? You're asking, but it's safe to use your own hair for now because using someone else's hair can cause tissue rejection.In order for transplanted hair follicles to grow and maintain well, the 'incubation rate' must be high.The thing that's really bad about this is1. a patient's scalp condition2. the skill of the medical staff3. Quick transplant time after collection 4. follow-up managementIt can be divided into backs. First, hair transplantation is a surgery that is greatly affected by the patient's scalp characteristics and hair condition. Since each person's hair thickness, color, and scalp elasticity are different, there may be differences in the rate of birth depending on the current degree of hair loss. Therefore, it is important to select the optimal hair follicles for transplantation after determining where healthy hair grows and where hair density is high through hair tests. Then, the ability of the medical staff depends on it. Hair transplantation is a surgery that requires the process of extracting, examining, and transplanting tiny hair follicles that are only about 1-2 mm without damage, so collaboration among skilled medical staff is very important. It takes an average of 6 to 9 hours per operation and transplants more than 1000 to 2000 hair follicles on average, so depending on the skills of the surgical team consisting of doctors, nurses, and professional hair follicle managers, it can greatly affect the birth rate. In addition, hair follicles are highly likely to be damaged if exposed to free oxygen for a long time, so if the selected hair follicles are transplanted quickly within an hour of collection, the birth rate will inevitably increase and the hair will grow and be maintained well.In addition, rather than planting many hair follicles densely, you should properly distribute them in consideration of the implantable amount and your hairstyle. You should also pay attention to the proper distance from existing hair so that the surrounding hair is not damaged. Finally, post-transplant follow-up care can be cited. There may be unfortunate cases in which the hair cannot be cut properly due to the fact that the transplanted hair follicle cannot be rooted well due to poor follow-up care. Therefore, it is important to visit a hospital with a systematic follow-up management system to improve lifestyle as well as manage wounds and inflammation well after hair transplantation and receive continuous management.
