We believe that for those who finally come to the point of deciding to get a hair transplantation, they needed to go through research, consideration, and choose a treatment that best meets their needs. As a hair transplantation can be called an important investment of a lifetime. This investment requires not only the money but also the utilization of the hair at the “Safe Donor Area (simply called Safe Zone", which is differently limited to each person. For those whose beneficial hair on Safe Zone is very limited, or those who have been experiencing the severe hair loss or thinning hair, they may have only 1-2 times of possible and practical hair transplant in a lifetime. Our hair is therefore cannot be put a price on.
In this section, Namnin would like to you share four typical failures of hair transplantation performed without standardized procedures so that you could avoid the disappointment and choose the right hair transplantation method ensuring that your confidence will be restored.
1
Unworthwhile utilization of the beneficial hair at Safe Donor Zone
Beneficial hair means the hair at the lower back of the head possessing the unique property of resistance to DHT hormone, which triggers the premature hair loss. This special feature still remains with the hair regardless of where it is implanted. That’s the reason why the most common donor area is from the back of the head, rather than the sides.
However, due to limited area of Safe Zone, the surgeon needs to analyze the availability of beneficial hair as well as the recipient area precisely. This is to ensure that the hair on the safe donor region is removed properly; not too little until the problem cannot be solved, but not too much until another hair transplantation surgery cannot be performed. The utilization of the hair on this occipital scalp needs to be planed most effectively so that the patients will be able to get another hair transplant whenever they face the same problem caused by aging.
Without a professional and standard analysis, the hair on the safe donor region will be removed redundantly, leading to insufficient safe-donor hair for the future needs.

Patchy and dent hair
To remove the beneficial hair from the lower back of the head, each doctor may use techniques differently, for example, a method that requires hair shaving before removing
the hair (which causes patients to face hair styling problems) which is not popular today. We have found that there are many cases where even the patients have received a hair
transplantation but the second time of hair transplant is requested. They come with the problems of dent hair, uneven distribution, and patchy hair. These obstruct doing preferable hair style. In fact, with modern technology and the expertise of the doctors, the hair on safe donor region can be penetrated and removed accurately and then implanted beautifully. In short, there’s no worry to be mentioned.

Transplanted hair growing in the wrong direction
This is also a common problem mainly caused by a nonstandard service provider. Nonstandard procedure causes a lot of trouble; a wrong direction of hair is one of it. The
transplanted hair grows in the opposite direction to the original one. It can be found both on the forehead as well as at the crown, especially at the hair whorl where the hair growing in a circular direction, vary from person to person. The wrong direction of transplanted hair is quite noticeable and makes the hair looks unnatural.
4
Zero confidence
The wrong direction of hair, the limitation of the possible hairstyling, as well as the patchy or uneven hair at the back of the head to be concealed, make an everyday life difficult and gradually degrade the personality and confidence of the hair’s owner.
As you have seen examples of failed hair transplant, we truly hope that you would spend more time when selecting a hair transplantation. Please note that some problems cannot be solved by a second hair transplant (e.g., insufficient beneficial hair or hair growing in the wrong direction) Therefore, your first-time hair transplantation should be chosen and carried out as good as possible so that the successful outcome can be met. Most importantly, the worthiness should overcome the price.
