Facelift surgery is one of widely popular procedures to restore a youthful face and firm skin. But did you know that the facelift can cause hair loss problems?
Causes of hair loss after facelift surgery
During facelift surgery, your surgeon will make incisions around the hairline and behind the ears to lift and tighten the skin and then suture the wounds. Sometimes, undergoing a facelift procedure may have some side effects, that is, it may cause wounds along the hairline that prevent the hair from growing, and eventually lead to thinning hair problems.
In addition, the cause of hair loss after a facelift is an abnormal physical condition, called “Shock Loss”. Shock Loss results in temporary hair loss that is similar to postpartum hair loss. It is caused by the hair being more stressed than usual due to a damage to the hair roots and injured skin, especially from incisions and sutures.
In addition, the research shows that more than 8.4% of those who have undergone facelift surgery have experienced post-surgery hair loss caused by Telogen Effluvium, or acute hair loss approximately two months after the facelift procedure.
After undergoing a facelift procedure, you will notice that the hairline becomes thinner along the stiches, making the wounds and stiches clearly visible. Based on the medical report, it is believed that the cause of thinning hair is that the hair follicles have been damaged due to too-tight surgical sutures, leading to acute hair loss.
However, Shock Loss or Telogen Effluvium, hair loss after a facelift, can be reversible within 6-8 months after the surgery. Your hair will usually grow back and become thick and strong again. However, in some cases, they may have to face this condition for many years. Therefore, if you want your hair to be recovered faster, it's best to consult an expert doctor like Namnin Clinic to help you solve the problem as soon as possible.
