The impact of losing your hair can be profound for both men and women. Many struggle silently in shame over their receding hairline, thinning strands, or a growing bald patch.
At Veritas Medical Aesthetics, we understand our patients’ struggle and want to help them the best way that we know – through evidence-based treatments for hair growth.
From lasers that stimulate “sleeping” hair follicles, salmon DNA that repairs hair cells at a cellular level, to hair transplant surgery that relocates stronger back-of-the-head follicles to thinning areas, here is a list of scientific treatments that we offer at Veritas to help our patients combat hair loss.
To put it simply, a hair transplant is a minor surgical procedure that moves hair follicular units, or grafts, from the back of the scalp to balding areas. It is a minimally invasive method that leaves no linear scar, therefore requiring no wound care and has a short social downtime of 5-7 days.
Done well, a hair transplant looks totally natural to onlookers and even your barbers. This requires a highly skilled team experienced in the artistry of selecting the right grafts for implantation with the most natural angle, direction and distribution.
The FUE procedure usually takes half a day to a day, depending on the scale of the procedure, and follows the steps below:
1. Anaesthetic and Extraction
The donor area is cleaned with an antiseptic solution and then numbed with anaesthetic before the surgeon begins extracting the hair follicles. Each hair follicle is extracted individually from the donor area with a pen and then stored in a special solution that preserves them for implantation.
2. Hair Graft Inspection
Every individual hair graft will be examined under a microscope and we will use only the best and most suitable hair grafts. This ensures the quality and survivability of the hair grafts.
3. Planning and Implantation
After inspection and selection of the hair grafts, the Doctor will plan how to nest position the grafts such that the appearance of the transplant is as natural as possible. We will consider factors such as the angle, direction and distribution of the grafts. When the distribution plan has been decided, the hair grafts are then implanted onto the balding areas.
4.Recovery
After the hair transplant surgery, you may have some swelling at the donor area and across the forehead for a few days. Your doctor will provide you with aftercare advice to ensure the success of your hair transplant.
FUE Hair Transplant for Facial Hair: Eye Brows and Beard
Apart from hair loss on the scalp, many patients also undergo FUE hair transplant for the eye brows and facial hair to achieve the permanent and natural results they desire.
These procedures usually only take half a day as fewer number of grafts and involved.
Hair transplant is an intricate surgical procedure that requires a ton of teamwork. Dr CY Chua is internationally certified for the hair transplant procedure and makes all the key decisions on treatment parameters and hair transplant diagnosis.
Having personally undergone both a hairline and beard transplant, Dr. Chua has a profound understanding of the psychological impact of hair loss on his patients. The team of technicians who assist the doctor also contribute significantly to the success of the hair transplant.
