Hair Weaving and Hair Grafting are two different types of hair weaving and hair grafting.
What is the meaning of hair weaving?
It's the art of weaving or braiding human or synthetic hair into the roots of healthy existing hair so that it grows in tandem with natural hair, creating the appearance of thick growth. Hair integration or hair intensification are other terms for the same thing. It's a technique for people who have thinning hair. It's not a process that requires a hospital visit; it's commonly done as a temporary operation in salons.
What is the mechanism behind it?
Two or three natural or synthetic hair shafts are threaded into the root area. To act as an anchor, some of the natural hair is weaved or braided together, and the add-on tufts are sewed, woven, knitted, or glued to it. As the original hair grows out, the extensions must be adjusted every five to six weeks.
It appears to be complicated.
Yes, it is. Aside from the mere boredom of repeated "surgeries," the practice also causes stress to the remaining hair. Also problematic is keeping the scalp and hair clean, as aggressive washing might dislodge the new hair. The American Hair Loss Council recommends the technique only for patients who have plenty of healthy hair, and only for a few weeks at a time. A patch test is required to ensure that the patient is not allergic to any of the adhesives or implants used during the treatment.
Hair implant surgery
A non-surgical implant is a fancy word for a straightforward operation that has been improved over time. In reality, a nonsurgical implant refers to the use of surgical adhesive to attach a hair system to existing hair, followed by cutting to ensure the add-ons mix in with natural hair.
What about remedies that are more long-term in nature?
Hair transplantation. This is the most common surgical procedure, although it is only available to persons who are partially bald. The results are long-lasting and can be produced in as few as four or five sessions. Hair follicles from the back of the head (where the growth is the most persistent) are removed and implanted on the pate in this process. This hair grows on its own and does not require any maintenance. It'll never be as thick as a mane, but it'll do for now.
Expansion of Tissue
On either side of the head, silicon balloons with hair-bearing skin are implanted. The implants are placed beneath the skin over the ears, causing the hair-bearing portion of the head to enlarge. The expansions are then re-grafted in front of the skull, giving the appearance of natural hair growth.
This necessitates two surgical procedures: one during implantation and another during re-grafting.
Are there any disadvantages to the surgical procedures?
Swelling, bruising, or slight pain may occur following the procedure, preventing regular activities for a few days. Numbness may sometimes occur on the back of the neck, where a strip of skin has been removed. It's also vital to keep in mind that different hair kinds and traits, such as wavy or curly hair, have an impact on the outcome.
