In the field of hair transplants there are a lot of doubts that you can have. When is the best moment to do it, what clinic and what doctor should i choose, because there is a difference in prices between clinics or what technique is the best or worst to use in the transplant. Another condition to choose the clinic is the way they work to avoid it being visible which this happens to people that look for a hair transplant with long hair.
It is the same for men and women with long hair, the shaven cut can be traumatic for some people, so they could be backing out of the transplant. There is no need to worry though, because it is possible to make the hair transplant with no need of shaving all the head. Thanks to this we will avoid that trip to the operating room being visible.
Benefits of the hair transplant with long hair
The first thing to consider to have a hair transplant with long hair is the specialist. A clinic where the doctor is the one who makes all the important choices of the transplant must be chosen, like the extractions and implantations of the follicles. in this sense, The instituto Medico del Prado and Doctor Espinosa Custodio are a safe choice, because they have experience with their team in this type of interventions
It should be pointed that in the capillary transplant a part of the head must be shaven in the donor zone. this technique is called “cortinilla” or “flaps”. after the intervention, this area will be hidden by the patients hair and no scar or sign will be seen. Thanks to this intervention the patients time to incorporate to the daily/work lifewill be shorter.
