Follow on Google News | Shaving Your Head For Hair Transplant - What You Must KnowThe pros and cons of shaving for hair transplant - and how you can have both, if you insist.
By: Steff Spencer Since this is the case, it may be a good idea to speak to your hair transplant doctor if he is able to perform the surgery without cutting your hair, even if it is to assess his ability to work with difficulty. However, there seem to be exceptions even in Jeffrey Epstein's case, "10 to 15% of patients who have that baby fine vellus hair that will potentially interfere with the procedure, I will in fact trim the hairs." Dr. Alan Feller, another practitioner offer his version of advice, "Leaving hair long during an HT is like trying to read a newspaper below a glass bowl of spaghetti with marinara sauce spread over it. An unnecessary hindrance." According to him, having unnecessary hair will increase the overall duration of the surgery besides presenting more obstacles for the medical staffs. Most people are bound to have some reservation about shaving or even of trimming their hair, especially women. Jeffrey Epstein agrees, "Certainly this group of patients are not going to allow the head to be shaved, and yet good to excellent results are capable in these patients." Obviously, any scars or hair falls will be noticeable with a shorter hair, and the patients may need to bear with it for a period of time. Although non-shaving seem to be the preferred choice here, there are also the concerns of whether longer hair will allow doctors to correctly determined their angle of growth compared to shaven hair. To this, Jeffrey Epstein has this to say, "After years of performing these procedures, I can focus just on a small area, and appreciate that angle, whether or not the hairs are long or short- and then mimic that angle with my recipient sites." This goes to show that shaving for hair transplant is in fact a doctor's preference rather than the patient's. The bottom line? Ask your doctor about the option of not trimming or shaving your hair, and whether or not he had performed it in the past. It will take longer for the surgery to complete, and certainly, your doctors would need to work harder this way. After all, it is your job to determine the end result and theirs to make sure you get it.
