Not everyone is a good candidate for hair transplant surgery and different patients achieve different end results. You must understand that hair transplant surgery should always be your last resort after all attempts to stop the progression of your hair loss have been exhausted.

There are the six important factors that make an individual a good candidate for hair transplant surgery are as follows :

hair loss

1. The overall quality and abundance of existing hair is most important.

Men and women has black, wavy blond or gray hair, who have balded slowly, and whose relatives experienced only limited hair loss.

2. Men and women in their 40s.

People who are in their 20s are more difficult since the future pattern of hair loss is unknown.

3. Pattern has stabilized.

Men who have been losing their hair due to male pattern baldness for more than five years or who have progressed to class 3 or above on the Norwood Scale, whose pattern has stabilized.

4. Boding area is not too large.

If your boding area is too large, most likely the hair transplant doctor will only do a small frontal section since not enough hair is available to cover the rest.

and who understand that their hair loss might continue to progress after surgery, even if they are taking prescription medication to stop this progression. Some people have to continue these medications after surgery to retain as much of their hair as possible.
