Traditional hair transplants and stem cell hair transplants have similarities among them. But the stem cell hair transplant does not require the removing of many hairs to the transplant of the area of hair loss. Instead, a stem cell hair transplant removes the smaller skin portion from which the hair follicles are harvested.
The follicles that were harvested from the skin reproduced in the laboratory and are implanted into the scalp of the person at hair loss position. This allows the hair growth from where the follicles were obtained and from where they are implanted. Read more about
Important things before hair transplant.
Stem cells:
Stem cells are the cells of the body that have the potential of growing body cells into different types of cells found in the body. These cells are the unspecialized cells in the body that are allowed to perform specifics things in the body. Stem cells have the capabilities to break themselves and to renew themselves into stem cells or another cell of the body. They help out in recovering the loss of cells by dividing and replacing damaged tissues.
The procedure:
A stem cell hair transplant was firstly done by Italian research in 2017. This procedure occurs by punch biopsy for extracting stem cells from a person. This biopsy is done by rotating an instrument in a circular motion for extracting a sample of tissue. Then stem tissues are separated from tissues in a special machine known as a centrifuge. It left back the suspension of the hair and again injected back into the scalp in the area of hair loss.
