I get this question a lot over the years.If you have coarse wavy hair in the donor site (back of head) than that is the way it will be when we relocate to the desired new location etc... It will keep the same characteristics.
Transplanted hair should have the same texture as the donor area where it was harvested. Sometimes it may grow out with a kinky texture. This may be a technical issue related to your surgery. Follow up with your doctor if you have concerns.
If u ask hair stylists they will tell u yes! The finer the hair the less kinky. There is no texture change with the Fleming Mayer Flap procedure and no need for multiple procedures.
In general, yes. Curly hair is unlikely to get straighter when it is transplanted but occasionally straight hair will develop a wave or a bit of curl. If this occurs with the initial growth, it might resolve with continued growth and subsequent hair life cycles.
Texture of the transplanted hair will be the same as the texture and have the same growth characteristics of the donor hair.
Tes, most of the time transplanted hair is just like the hair from the back of the head where it came from, not the area where it is going which is often miniaturized (thinninr) hair.
Hair transplanted hair takes on the hair characteristics and hair texture of the harvested hair from the donor area, therefore it is important to take the hair from area that has the same hair growth and characteristics of the rest of the scalp first.
Typically I tell my patients that they need to wait 10 days before placing helmets back on the head.You also need to be taking preventative measures to make sure you slow down the hair loss process.
It seems someone asked the exact same question with the exact same wording in 2009 if you do a Google search of your question. If you do a Google search you will find your answer as I have.
You need to call your doctor for post operative care and follow up. Your doctor should have given you an appointment to return to have your suture removed. This can be 7 to 14 days.
