Hair Follicle Conservation focuses on strategies to maximize the survival and retention of hair follicles during and after transplantation. This approach is critical for achieving optimal density and ensuring long-lasting results in hair restoration procedures.
The conservation process begins with careful extraction of grafts using minimally invasive techniques like FUE. Each follicle is handled delicately and stored in nutrient-rich solutions to maintain viability. During implantation, surgeons pay close attention to the angle, depth, and spacing of graft placement to minimize trauma and enhance survival rates.
Postoperative care plays a significant role in follicle conservation. Patients are advised to avoid touching the grafts, follow prescribed medications, and maintain proper scalp hygiene to support healing. Advanced therapies such as PRP can further improve follicle survival.
Patients benefit from effective follicle conservation as it ensures that transplanted hair grows naturally and remains healthy over time. This focus on preservation enhances the overall success and satisfaction of hair restoration.
