A HAIR AFFAIR

The FUE hair transplant technique at last offers a viable alternative to going bald…

 

For some, going bald is not a problem. The shaven head look suits them perfectly well, and they are happy with their image. For others, however, going bald, especially at a younger age, can affect one’s confidence. With baldness affecting 25% of men in their 20s and 60% before their 40s, it is a common problem for many men.

For decades there was very little in the way of choice for anyone whose hair was thinning out. Transplant techniques were invasive and ineffective, and left scars. And the idea of gluing a toupee to one’s scalp really is the thing of 1970s sitcom sketches.

And don’t be fooled by pharmaceutical sales pitches: no medicine, lotion, shampoo or head massage will ever bring back your lost hair. However, in just a few short years, the hair transplant industry has developed at a rapid pace and successful transplant techniques now mean that baldness is very much a choice.

Celebrities such as James Nesbitt and Wayne Rooney have all undergone procedures with spectacular results.

Whilst older techniques have tended to yield inconsistent results, and often caused scarring, the latest technique is Follicular Unit Extraction, or FUE, a painless and minimally invasive procedure that involves extracting individual hair follicles from the back or side of the head and then inserting them in the thinning area, creating a new hairline. FUE uses tiny needles and local anaesthetic, without causing any scarring or pain.

As long as you have some stable hair on the back and/or the sides of the head, it is most certain that you can have a FUE Hair transplant.

The procedure is championed by the FUE Hair Clinics©, one of the leading hair transplant clinics in Harley Street today, which prides itself on being gay friendly, discreet and sympathetic to the individual needs of each customer.
