Hair
Transplant today has moved a long way from the past “pluggy”
appearance; the movement of natural genetic Follicular Units
(FU/grafts) now allows for the natural placement of the FU
that mimics nature.
Dr
Bisanga feels a great part of a hair transplant result is
not just the medical ability of the doctor but the amount
of artistic understanding the doctor has when designing a
new head of hair; and this is vitally important with hair
line placement. At BHR we understand that everyone is individual
and that creativity is important to personality with great
importance placed on the aesthetic quality of the result.
In some ways the creation of a head of hair is a work of art,
and the art does not need to be innovative to be good but
it has to be natural. We are dedicated to push the boundaries
of excellence in this area and mix with our medical and technical
prowess to achieve world renowned results.
Technical
ability then becomes important in being able to mimic nature
to create the look of fullness from the hair at our disposal.
To dense pack follicular units is an art and skill in its
own right; the closer the slits are made the greater care
has to be taken not to impair adjacent slits or hair groups.
This technique is imperative to reaching a result in “one
pass” and not having to return to the area potentially
causing unnecessary trauma to the skin.
Slit
placement and angulations will change dependent on genre and
positioning on the scalp, especially in temple point reconstruction
and crown rebuilding; although there can be some “poetic
licence” nature has to be followed especially when placing
within existing hair. In some case using a little creativity
can expand the coverage of an amount of grafts whilst still
maintaining the look of thickness and this is another reason
when judging results, never assume like for like, because
there is much more to a result than the simple placement of
the hair in the head.
The
term Mega Sessions is becoming more common in both FUE &
FUT Techniques, the ability to move mass hair in one session.
Dr Bisanga knows there is a fine line between speed and
quality, and the two do not always mix. Paramount is the
result and this must always be in mind over numbers or speed.
FUE is much more labour intensive for the doctor as he should
be performing much of the procedure himself, punching, extraction
and slit placement, with the technicians placing the grafts.
If this is the case and a high yield is expected consistently
there will be a limit to one man’s ability to constantly
increase the numbers. Strip/FUT is more reliant on the Medical
Team therefore much greater numbers can be placed in one
day, but this still relies on the Doctor controlling and
advising the Medical Team through the procedure, like a
well oiled machine, to ensure quality and numbers go hand
in hand.
A
hair transplant is not only about the result on the top
of your head, the donor area is just as important and with
technical improvements in tools size with FUE and closure
techniques for FUT, scarring is becoming smaller and less
detectable. FUE punch size has been shown to be an important
product in reducing the appearance of scars, and in some
cases make them invisible to the eye. Dr Bisanga has been
involved with FUE research for many years and published
research at International Transplant meetings showing the
effects the wrong size tool can have on the donor area.
The introduction of the Tricophytic Closure, a technique
used by BHR, is used to minimise the look of the linear
scar with Strip procedures; this enables hair to grow back
through the line thus camouflaging the appearance more and
allowing the person to keep their hair shorter than before.
When
combined, all of these aspects make for artistry and medical
ability coming together to produce a great result.
Our
mission is to bring to you the finest in H/T technology and
artistic design, along with the highest level of care and
attention. We pride ourselves on delivering an all round service
