FEMALE HAIR TRANSPLANT

Transform Your Look, Transform Your Life

What is a Female Hair Transplant?

A female hair transplant is a specialized surgical procedure designed to address the unique hair loss patterns that women experience. Unlike the isolated bald patches typical in men, women often face thinning across the entire scalp. The primary goal of this procedure is to restore hair density and improve the overall appearance, focusing on creating a natural, fuller look that complements existing hair. This need arises from various factors such as hormonal imbalances, genetics, aging, medical conditions, and certain medications. For many women, significant hair loss can affect self-esteem and quality of life, making a hair transplant a viable solution.

The procedure typically involves the individual extraction of hair follicles from the back of the scalp, which are then transplanted to thinning areas, allowing for a highly natural look without visible scarring. Utilizing a specialized implanter pen, offering greater control over the angle, depth, and placement of follicles, making it ideal for sensitive areas like the frontal hairline.

Examples of conditions that may benefit from female hair transplants include:

  • Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: This condition affects the frontal hairline, and a hair transplant can help rebuild a natural hairline for a balanced appearance.
  • Postpartum Hair Loss: Many women experience substantial thinning after childbirth. Transplants can restore density once the shedding phase stabilizes.
  • Cosmetic Hairline Lowering: Some women choose to lower their hairline or fill in thinner areas to enhance facial symmetry.

Beyond the transplant itself, adjunct hair loss treatments such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) mesotherapy can enhance the success of the transplant and improve overall scalp health. PRP mesotherapy uses the patient’s own platelets to stimulate growth factors in the scalp, promoting stronger and more resilient hair. Mesotherapy involves micro-injections of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the scalp, nourishing hair follicles, increasing blood circulation, and supporting optimal hair growth. These treatments work synergistically with hair transplants to maintain surrounding hair, ensuring a fuller and healthier appearance overall.

Evaluation and Consultation

  • The first step is to consult with one of our medical staff from HMR Tijuana. They will assess your hair loss pattern, overall health, and candidacy for the procedure.

    A thorough evaluation is important to determine the underlying cause of hair loss and the most appropriate treatment approach.

Donor Hair Harvesting

  • In female hair transplants, the donor hair is usually taken from the back or sides of the scalp, where hair follicles are less susceptible to the effects of DHT (a hormone associated with hair loss).

Hair Follicle Preparation

  • Once the donor hair is harvested, Dr. Cortez carefully extracts hair follicles directly (in FUE).

    These follicular units contain one to four hairs and are prepared for transplantation.

Recipient Site Creation

  • Dr. Cortez creates tiny incisions or recipient sites in the areas of the scalp that require hair restoration.

    The sites are strategically placed to ensure natural-looking hair distribution and desired density.

Hair Transplantation

  • The prepared follicular units are meticulously transplanted into the recipient sites.

    Dr. Cortez pays close attention to the angle, direction, and density of the transplanted hair to achieve an aesthetically pleasing and natural result.

Post-Transplant Care

  • Following the procedure, the patient will receive instructions on post-operative care, including proper hair washing, medication administration, and avoiding activities that could impact the newly transplanted hair.

    Periodic follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor progress and ensure the healing process is on track.

It's important to note that the success and outcome of a female hair transplant can vary depending on various factors, such as the extent of hair loss and the quality of the donor hair.
