  • #AskDrJohnWatts Different questions related to baldness, hair grafts, hair loss, hair transplant procedures and medical treatments for hair loss are being raised by patients now and then, including the followers of Dr John Watts, who keep flooding his series of hugely popular educational videos on his popular YouTube channel with queries related to different hair issues. In this educational video session, Hyderabad's noted dermatologist & trichologist and one of the Best Hair Transplant Surgeons in Hyderabad, Dr John Watts explains why some hair loss patients are outrightly asked to wear a wig or a hair patch during the consultation. Why they are considered eligible to undergo a hair transplant? Should such patients consult another doctor for a second opinion? Dr John Watts answers these questions. So far, he has performed over 2000+ hair transplant surgeries successfully. Jai Kumar asks: Sir, why is that some hair loss patients are not considered eligible to undergo a hair transplant? Why they are outrightly advised to wear a wig or a hair patch during consultation with the doctor? How fair is that? Please explain. Hair loss is a common concern, and hair transplants seem like a natural solution but not every hair loss case needs a hair transplant. In this educational video by Dr. John Watts, he sheds light on why hair transplants aren't suitable for everyone. While responding to the query raised by Jay Kumar, he explores the factors that determine hair transplant eligibility and alternative options for those who aren't ideal candidates. Who Might Not Be a Good Candidate for Hair Transplants? According to Dr Watts, a crucial factor in hair transplant suitability is the availability of donor hair. Donor hair refers to the healthy hair follicles harvested from a specific area of your scalp to be transplanted into the bald spots. Here's why some people might not qualify: Insufficient Donor Hair: If one has significant hair loss with limited healthy areas on your scalp, there might not be enough donor hair to achieve a natural-looking result. This is why a hair transplant surgeon might advise against the procedure. Body Hair Transplants: While surgeons can harvest hair from areas like the chest or beard, these grafts often grow differently than scalp hair. Although they may eventually adapt, they might not provide the desired density or texture for a seamless look. Combined Scenario: If one has both poor donor hair on both the scalp and body, a traditional hair transplant might not be enough. In such cases, wigs or hair patches might be recommended. Alternatives for Hair Loss Management: Wigs and Hair Patches: These offer a non-surgical solution for hair loss. However, they come with limitations like cost, maintenance needs, and potential discomfort. Scalp Micro Pigmentation (SMP): This technique creates a realistic illusion of a shaved head by tattooing tiny dots on the scalp. It's suitable for those comfortable with a completely shaved head. However, SMP might not be ideal for areas with existing hair growth as it can create an unnatural contrast. Conclusion: Hair transplants are a valuable tool for hair loss, but they're not a one-size-fits-all solution. Consulting a dermatologist or hair transplant surgeon can help you understand your candidacy and explore alternative options like wigs, hair patches, or SMP, depending on one’s specific needs and preferences.
