Is artificial hair transplant feasible?
Related to autologous hair transplantation, there is a technique of implanting synthetic hair into human body called artificial hair transplantation. The principle of artificial hair transplantation is different from that of autologous hair transplantation. Autologous hair transplantation is to plant your hair follicle on the scalp, and the planted hair follicle can survive. The new hair grown through the hair follicle is the same as normal hair, that is, it will live there forever. However, artificial hair transplantation technology has no hair follicles to plant, and only synthetic things that look like hair (actually artificial fibers) are firmly attached to the scalp. After planting, about half of the artificial hair can grow on the scalp, which means that the scalp can accommodate it. But after all, it is a foreign organization. After a long time, the human body will reject it. Therefore, within six months to 1 year, all the artificial hair grown on the scalp will be rejected and replanted continuously. The biggest side effect of artificial hair transplant is not the shedding of hair transplant, but the scar. Because the artificial hair transplant process will cause damage to the scalp, it will leave a permanent, pit-like scar. Therefore, it is not worth the loss to treat baldness with artificial hair transplantation. The above is the introduction of authoritative plastic surgery experts in our hospital.
