HAIR TRANSPLANTATION
The aesthetic aspect of a hair transplant.
A beautiful, full head of hair is often seen as a sign of youth, beauty and health.
Hair naturally frames the face, defining its shape and proportions.
As a plastic surgeon, I know how important full hair is for a healthy and youthful appearance. When we can recreate the natural hairline and hair density, we also restore the natural balance of the face.
At the BellevueClinic MOL, we offer different solutions for your hair loss, combined or not.
During an exploratory consultation, we always consider which option is most appropriate for YOU.
What is a hair transplant ?
This technique involves implanting the body’s own hair at the level of a receding hairline or bald spots at the level of the crown. Eyebrows can also be transplanted using the latest hair transplantation techniques. This procedure uses the most innovative techniques in the field of hair surgery, which are still constantly evolving, for a beautiful and natural result.
At Bellevue Clinic Mol, we offer not only the classic hair transplantation, but also the innovative FUE method. Thanks to this technique, we can give you back a full, natural-looking head of hair without any visible scars!
Another technique (the FUT method) is based on moving whole strips of hair (hair root + scalp), making the procedure shorter and more suitable for people with sufficient donor hair who want to wear their hair for a long time. There are also a number of laser techniques available.
When will you benefit from hair transplantation?
When people think of hair transplantation, they immediately think of solving male pattern baldness. But this technique also focuses on treating unwanted hair loss to a lesser extent or excessive thinning of the hair, a receding hairline, inlets or a balding crown. Moreover, women are also affected by all kinds of hair problems.
Hair transplantation offers a permanent solution to such problems. You will therefore benefit from this treatment as soon as you experience aesthetic hindrance from an abnormal hair growth process.
The procedure can take place in an early stage of hair loss or an advanced stage. Besides a full hair transplant, it is also possible to fill in or correct the hairline.
Why choose Bellevue Clinic for your hair transplant ?
The hair transplant is always performed from start to finish by Dr De Smet herself, accompanied by her experienced team of nurses. Dr De Smet is one of the only plastic surgeons in Belgium and even Europe to have specialised in the treatment of hair loss.
Since 2014, she has also headed the Hair Atelier in Zurich, where she treats patients from all over the world on a weekly basis.
Before proceeding with surgery, your scalp is examined to identify possible causes. Hair problems can be caused by hormonal fluctuations, stress or diseases. However, if your problem is permanent or hereditary, a hair transplant may be the solution for you. In consultation with Dr Lemmens and Dr De Smet, the best technique to solve your hair problem will be determined for you.
It is also possible to correct any scars, whether or not created by a previous hair transplant treatment elsewhere. Moreover, we will give you tips and advice on how to prevent hair loss in the future.
Het resultaat en de effectieve haargroei begint pas drie tot vijf maanden na de operatie. De fysieke kenmerken van uw haren blijven behouden. Dit wil zeggen dat als u dun, droog en pluizig haar heeft, dit niet plots dik en krullend zal worden na de operatie. Het eindresultaat is ook volledig afhankelijk van de gebruikte methode, uw haartype, de dikte van uw haar en de natuurlijke hoeveelheid haar.
It is possible for the transplanted hairs to fall out again afterwards. This is not abnormal and is often a temporary consequence of the scalp healing and the loosening of the wound crusts. Before the hair really starts growing again, the scalp may also be extremely sensitive.
