MEDICAL HAIR TRANSPLANTS
Medical Transplant Technique Surgery is the only available procedure that can provide you with permanent, natural hair. Using donor hair from the back and sides of your scalp, one, two, three or four hair grafts are transplanted to the area of loss. When this procedure is performed properly, the transplanted hair looks natural and will live and grow forever.	Medical Hair Transplants Transplant Technique Questions & Answers Before/After Photos

Precision and Detail Set KingsHead’s Transplant Surgeries Apart
When it comes to a successful transplant surgery, how grafts are cared for and handled by the medical team can make or break the surgery. The first part of the transplant surgery is performed by removing a strip of tissue from the back lower portion of the head (frozen from injections). After this strip of tissue is removed, KingsHead has 5 skilled and experienced nurses who dissect this tissue while it is placed on a "backlight".

The backlight (pictured to the right) is a cool fluorescent light on which the strip of tissue is gently placed for dissecting into tiny grafts. It illuminates the tissue, allowing the nurses to examine it more clearly and reduce the chance of cutting through or unnecessarily damaging any follicles.

After each graft (containing 1 3 follicles) is dissected from the strip, it is placed directly into a saline filled petri dish on ice (also pictured to the right). Keeping the grafts on ice prolongs the life of the cells in the tissue by decreasing their metabolism and oxygen needs.
The grafts are then transferred one at a time directly from the chilled saline solution to the recipient slits already cut in the scalp. The transplant procedure is very detail oriented and takes over 4 hours to perform. However, when it is done correctly, it is the only medically proven permanent undetectable solution to solving hair loss.

Change Takes Time
You might wonder why more clinics aren't performing the micro graft technique that is our standard. The answer is simply that change takes time. A doctor who is performing 100-500 grafts per two- hour session, relying on a staff of 1-3 technicians, may find the transition of 500-1600 grafts per 5-7 hour session with a staff of 4-6 technicians difficult. It takes a great deal of time and effort to learn this more refined technique. The longer sessions are more labor-intensive and technically more demanding, as well. Though our method produces much better results in less time, some doctors are unwilling or unable to make the investment to change.
