From the days before your surgery to the years afterwards, it is good to know all you can about how to care for your hair. If you did not want your hair to look good, you would not have had the hair transplant in the first place. When you are having your consultation with the surgeon, explain the kind of hair style you would like to have. That person will also know how much the total cost was, and if there were any hidden fees. You might not know anyone who has had a hair transplant procedure. In this case, you might go to the telephone directory. This is just a starting point. Many of the doctors who advertise there are simply trying to start up a practice in the field. You are not asking too much - it is a major commitment you are making. 4. If your doctor says to try a few hair transplant grafts and then decide, run. This is never a good idea. Once you start having the grafts done, you are committing to a full set of procedures. Otherwise, your hair will end up looking out of balance. Some people find them unacceptable. They want to wear their hair short, and they see the scar peeking out from under their hair, even if no one else does.

A young person will usually want a fairly low hairline. He remembers the way it was just a few short years ago and wants to duplicate the image. For that, many hair transplant surgeons will use micro grafts for the hairline and the front and edges of the hair. Then, they will use mini grafts farther back on the scalp. These mini grafts used in hair transplant surgery contain three to eight shafts of hair. They give the hair fullness in areas where they will not stand out as looking fake.
