Addressing Unnatural Looking Results from Past Transplants

Modern hair transplantation methods have impressive results and high success rates. Hair Transplantation also stands out in terms of short recovery times, safety and simplicity. At Esteworld, 97-100% of DHI and FUE hair transplant operations are successfully completed.

As with any surgical intervention, complications can sometimes arise that require more attention. These are usually minor and easily treatable. Experienced teams can solve problems with the knowledge they have gained from previous cases. More serious complications are very rare.

So, what are the most common results of hair transplantation? What should be done in case of a hair transplant gone wrong? Let’s learn together.

Why Hair Transplant Results Can Be Poor?

The hair transplant procedure can often have problems in two main categories: Medical and aesthetic issues.

Medical Issues:

Although hair transplantation is a safe and relatively simple surgical procedure, like any surgical intervention, it involves some risks. Medical problems such as excessive bleeding, tachycardia and fainting may occur during the operation. Such problems are rare, usually when performed by highly trained and experienced surgeons.
There are also complications that can occur within days or weeks after the operation. For example, medical problems such as scalp infections or extreme pain at the transplant site (usually caused by over-growth of follicles) can occur.

Aesthetic Problems:

Hair transplantation can be considered a failure, even if there are no health or safety issues. This can occur if most of the transplanted hair follicles fail to attach to their new location or if the new hair growth does not look natural. This can often be described as a lack of compatibility with other hairs or an undesirable aesthetic result.
Highly qualified surgeons and careful operation planning are important to minimize the possibility of such problems.

What are the Most Common Problems in Hair Transplantation?

Incorrect or unsuccessful results in hair transplant procedures can be caused by various reasons and can lead to serious hair transplant regrets. Here are some common issues to consider when choosing surgeons and clinics to perform hair transplantation.

Excessive Harvesting from the Donor Area:

In any hair restoration operation, it is important to accurately determine how much hair will be harvested and how the scalp areas will be planned. In cases of low-quality transplantation, it is possible for the surgeon to overestimate the number of hair grafts. This can cause excessive pain and discomfort during the procedure and the healing process. In addition, taking too many hair grafts can cause unsightly scars and make future transplants more difficult.

Unnecessary or Prominent Scars:

The best hair transplant surgeons are specialists who can provide the desired results with minimal scarring. Providers with less experience may leave unnecessary scars as a result of poor technique. This can happen both at the donor site and at the transplant site. FUT procedures are more likely to leave more noticeable scarring than FUE surgeries.

Scar Tissue Degradation from Hair Transplantation:

When hygiene and medical standards are low during hair transplantation, infections of the skin and hair follicles can occur. This is one of the usually treatable but undesirable side effects. Infections can manifest as abscesses, pus, redness, itching and excessive swelling.

Necrosis and Tissue Damage:

Necrosis occurs when the blood supply to the skin is cut off, leading to the death of skin tissue. This can occur due to infection or poor wound management. Giving too much epinephrine to stop excessive bleeding can cause necrosis.

Failed Hair Growth:

When an unskilled surgeon does not have the necessary expertise to ensure that the follicles are transplanted properly, failure to successfully harvest the transplanted hair and poor hair growth is a common problem.

Unnatural Hair Transplant Results:

Poor transplant techniques can result in unnatural-looking transplants. Unnatural hairline design and misguided hair transplantation often lead to unsuccessful results.

Highly qualified surgeons and careful planning are important to minimize such problems.

What to do in case of a hair transplant gone wrong?

In the event of a hair transplant gone wrong, it is important to first contact an experienced hair transplant specialist or surgeon, depending on the nature of the problem. Problems can be based on various causes such as poor transplantation techniques, infections, over-harvesting. With a professional evaluation, an appropriate treatment plan can be created, corrective procedures can be performed or revision hair transplantation can be performed if necessary. Choosing the right surgical team and clinic at the beginning can help minimize potential problems.
