About the procedure

Balding is a normal occurrence of the natural process of aging. The hair gets thinner with age and the loss of it may become both an aesthetic and an emotional problem. In our clinic this problem can be solved with a hair transplantation procedure.

The reason for this condition is the high sensitivity of the cells which create the hair follicle to androgenic hormones (testosterone). The hair loss usually starts from the crown and/or the frontal scalp. Hair bulbs placed in these areas have receptors which are sensitive to testosterone and this makes the hair vulnerable. Well preserved bulbs remain in those areas of the scalp where such receptors are missing – the area above the ears and at the back of the head.

At V Derm we offer a surgical method against hair loss  in which a specialized last generation equipment is used – SmartGraft. We redistribute the hair follicles from areas that are not affected by the balding process in areas where the process has already started. SmartGraft provides the opportunity of an automated vacuum extraction of a maximum number of hair follicles under a local anesthetic. The results look natural with both men and women.

The procedure is based on the so-called FUE-technique (follicular unit extraction) during which the hairs are transplanted one by one from the donor area to the treated area. The transplantation of hair follicles without receptors for testosterone from the back of your head will ensure an area which is protected from baldness for life. The result looks natural and the newly transplanted hair continues to grow. It can also be dyed and cut.
