FUE CROWN HAIR TRANSPLANT
The crown, also known as the vertex, is an area of the scalp that can require hair transplantation due to the fact that extreme hair angle changes occur in the crown area in a whorl, or spiral, pattern which must be meticulously recreated for a seamlessly natural result. Additionally, the crown typically has extensive areas of baldness that require transplantation, resulting in the need for a large number of grafts in one area. Hair loss can occur at the hairline, temporals, mid-scalp, or the crown area. When it occurs at the crown area, which is at the back of the head, it is not noticeable from the frontal view of a person’s face. However, it causes people to lose their confidence and they feel inferior. At Hair Transplant Centre Malaysia, we deal with a lot of patients who have this issue and are struggling with their self-esteem. While recreating the crown area, our doctors know; the basic facts of the crown area restoration, the technique, and the causes of hair loss in this area. We also provide post-care treatments which are included in the service and we will follow up and guide you through the after-care journey.
How is it Done?
Crown Hair Transplant is done by FUE technique by implanting the healthy hair follicles directly from a donor area on the scalp which is also called permanent area and grafting them onto the bald area.
The treatment is carried out under local anaesthesia, eliminating risks and downtime associated with other hair transplant procedures. And because the treatment is minimally invasive our team ensure that the donor looks intact after the hair transplant procedure and you can keep your hair really short if you prefer without any obvious linear scarring. In most cases, patients are able to return to work the next day with their results.
The method uses a specialised punch device, ranging in diameter from 0.6mm – 1.0 mm, to extract follicular units complete with necessary glands. This separates surrounding tissue from the unit, meaning minimum trauma and better results. The treatment is performed under a high powered loupes using specially designed instruments, allowing the Hair Transplant doctor to work with the upmost precision for natural-looking, virtually undetectable results.
STEP - 1
Preparing the Donor Area
First, we identify the recipient areas and work to personalize a plan to help you achieve the most nature-looking hairline possible. Next, we trim the hair in your donor area to facilitate the identification and removal of strong, healthy donor hairs.
STEP - 2
Removing and Preparing the Hair Follicles
Once the donor area is prepared, we remove individual follicular units from your scalp by making a tiny circular incision around them to isolate the graft. Then we extract the graft from the scalp using a tweezers-like instrument. Working with high-powered stereo microscopes, our trained technicians examine the follicular grafts and prepare them for placement.
STEP - 3
Placing the Follicular Units
When the follicular grafts are ready, we make small incisions in your recipient area that match your natural hair growth pattern. The follicular grafts are then strategically placed one by one, according to the number of hairs within each follicle, in order to maximize the naturalness, density and coverage of the thinning areas. This is where the experience and artistry of your FUE physician is critical.
STEP - 4
FUE Healing and Hair Growth
The tiny incisions left behind after the follicular units are extracted will heal completely in a few days. Three months after the procedure, you should begin to notice new hair growth. After six months, you should see noticeable regrowth, at which point your native and transplanted hair will continue to grow naturally.
