What is hair restoration?
Hair restoration techniques are designed to redistribute the existing hairs on the head from the more dense areas to the thinner ones. During the preoperative consultation in his Little Rock office, Dr. English examines the hair and scalp to make a recommendation regarding the best procedure or combination of the following procedures:
Hair Transplants
Thin strips of hair bearing scalp are removed in order to prepare micro (1-2 hairs) and/or mini (2-4 hairs) grafts. These strips, from the back and sides of the head, are moved to areas where the hair is less dense. This technique transplants the roots of the hair so that once established, they produce hairs for as long as they would have at the original sites.
Scalp Reduction
Bald areas on the crown, top or back of the head are removed and the adjacent hair-bearing scalp is stretched over the area. Two or more procedures are usually required to achieve the desired result. These procedures are separated by several months to allow the scalp to soften and loosen.
Scalp Flaps
Areas of hair-bearing scalp are transposed from the back and sides of the head to the areas where the hair is less dense. The use of scalp flaps allows for the transfer of a larger amount of hair, which continues growing after it is transferred.
The placement of incisions is dependent upon the procedure that is being used. In all cases, the scars are generally quite acceptable because of their location and the coverage provided by adjacent hair.
