“Get a hair transplant” that meets your desire

Hair transplantation is different from other surgeries in that it cannot be repeated or modified as you like at any time. In addition, with a natural limitation, a hair transplant procedure requires the patient’s own hair with the special properties, located on the Safe Donor Area (the occipital area). Please note that this special hair is a nonrenewable source. Therefore, making a decision on a hair transplant is very cautious. Especially, as these days, there are plenty of advertisements of hair transplant techniques, to make a decision becomes even more difficult.

If you want to get a hair transplant which gives you the "hair" as expected, how should you choose? You must first understand that every step of "hair transplant" is crucial and affects the hair growth. You should study all information thoroughly before making a decision. To make it easier, we have gathered the considerations in this section.

Person who performs hair transplant procedures

From the first day you receive the service until the last day you get completely new hair, there is one important factor that will give patients the most confidence, that is, a “hair transplant surgeon” who works with you as a team from day one. A good hair transplant surgeon should professionally listen to patient’s voice, evaluate expectations and limitations, provide correct understanding, design a treatment path, perform implantation himself/herself, and provide post-op care continuously.

Expertise of the doctor and multidisciplinary team

Every step of hair transplantation affects the growth of new hair. This includes removal and implantation of hair follicles with reliable equipment, considering the size of each hair graft that varies from person to person. Expertise is a necessity because each hair graft is precious and means a lot to a hair transplant procedure.

Hair Grafts Removal Process

The process of removing hair graft takes approximately 3-6 hours. Dr. Nin will plan and supervise every step and process meticulously, starting from selecting the appropriate equipment, and supervising a multidisciplinary team closely at all times. After removing the hair grafts, they must be soaked in preservation solution immediately to maintain the best condition and special properties before implantation. If this process is not controlled well enough, the hair graft may be damaged or inactive which is a major cause of hair transplantation failure.

Every single graft is implanted by the doctor

During NEAT hair transplant procedure, the doctor will implant each graft herself to ensure that every graft will grow as planned. In this step, the doctor needs to rely on both science and art to insert each hair strand in the appropriate position, at a proper depth suitable for new hair growth. During the implanting step, the density, direction, and orientation of the hair must be taken into account in order to obtain the most natural-looking results.

Hair Transplant Aftercare

In addition to the day the hair transplant procedure is performed, another factor that is often overlooked when deciding to have a hair transplant is Hair Transplant Aftercare. We recommend that those receiving a hair transplant service should receive proper and appropriate advice from the doctor throughout the period of one year after undergoing a procedure because there are various conditions that may be encountered such as shock loss. Alternatively, receiving appropriate treatments is recommended

After Hair Transplant Care Set

At Namnin, once the hair transplant procedure is completed, the patients will receive specially selected After Hair Transplant Products so that they can use daily at home safely and comfortably.

Follow-up Care and Monitoring

For a follow-up after hair transplant surgery, Dr. Nin will personally evaluate and follow-up on the treatment. If you have any questions or concerns, you could consult her on the appointment day. This will make one-year period after undergoing a hair transplant procedure a time of peace of mind. Comfort and satisfaction guaranteed!

Hair transplant technique “Properly Frame Your Face”

“Facial Frame” is an important variable for making your face “beautiful”. Especially for women, different facial frames give different looks. For example, if you have a facial frame with relatively high or receding hairline on their forehead, it makes you look older than the actual age, which consequently decreases self-confidence and social impression.

The “hair transplant” procedure is not only a solution to the problem of hair loss and baldness, but also an opportunity for “Reframing the Face”. At Namnin Clinic, hair transplant has both scientific and artistic meanings. Dr. Nin therefore, never neglect utilizing the medical science of hair transplantation to address hair loss and thinning hair, as well as applying an artistic perspective to enhance the natural beauty of the patient's face.

One of the important steps that the doctor needs to use her special artistic expertise is “Reframing the Face” through designing and drawing the hairline properly with the use of the Golden Ratio Principle. Reframing the Face will also help to make the patient's facial shape more proportional and attractive. In this step, the patient can share and express his/her needs and co-design the facial frame with the doctor. The doctor will always design a facial frame to most suit the patient's individual style or personality because we understand how important personality and beauty are for women.

Reframing the face to come out exactly as desired is not an easy task. It requires the skills and experience of highly-skilled doctors. To preserve the properties of hair follicles after removal, those hair grafts must be soaked in a preservation solution before being analyzed and trimmed to obtain the grafts that are suitable for implanting in each area the most.

As each person's hair on the scalp has the differences in size, thickness, and density, especially the number of hair strand per hair graft. This is the key to growing hair to create a facial frame without failure. If the selection of appropriate hair grafts is overlooked, the new hairline will definitely look unnatural.

At Namnin Clinic, Dr. Nin pays special attention to selection of hair grafts to create a beautiful, proportionate facial frame. This is a delicate and meticulous process. Commonly, the doctor divides the hair transplant region into 3 zones:

The outermost area of the hairline: this region contains the softest and finest hair strands. Therefore, a single-strand graft must be used. (a single-strand graft or called a single follicle means a graft consisting of one strand per graft). In addition, the hair being used needs to be a fine follicle so that it will blend in with the existing native hair.

Close to the hairline is a larger strand of hair. The doctors therefore choose a single-follicle graft of normal size to be implanted in this region.

The last region is the deep side part. Hair grown in this zone is noticeably denser and thicker strands. The doctors therefore choose hair grafts with 2 - 4 hair strand per graft (called Multiple follicles), which is the majority of hair on the head.

It can be concluded that when the hair grafts are meticulously and carefully selected as mentioned, the newly implanted grafts are distributed in a gradient from front to back with a natural look. Especially when combined with the doctor's hair transplant skills and expertise in determining a precise direction and angle, appropriate depth, as well as the right density, it results in a new hairline looking smooth and so natural that you hardly know it's newly implanted hair. In addition, once we have a new facial frame that helps improve the face shape to have balanced proportions, finally the beauty glows.

Combining Two Powerful Solutions to Stop Hair Loss NEAT + Premium Hair Booster

We believe that each question doesn't always have only one correct answer. Wouldn't it be better if we could combine two solutions to solve the problem with the better and more efficient results?

“NEAT Hair Transplant Technique” is the right answer for those who are experiencing problems of hair loss and thinning hair which may lead to baldness. NEAT helps you fill in the sparse/thinning areas with your own hair grafts removed from the lower back of the head. If the newly implanted hair is taken good care of, it will stay with you for the rest of your life.

However, there are cases where hair transplantation alone cannot completely solve the problem of thinning hair. As a matter of fact, each patient's hair problem has different levels of severity and different factors. In this case, Dr. Nin, the doctor and owner of Namnin Clinic, will help analyze and may recommend combining two methods of treatment at once. That is to say, after undergoing a hair transplant surgery, we would recommend “Premium Hair Booster Treatment Injection,” a convenient solution for hair lovers that helps to increase the thickness, density, shine and strength of the hair satisfactorily.

Get to know NEAT

NEAT is an advanced hair transplant technique, exclusive to Namnin. NEAT relies on implanting hair grafts removed from the occipital area, which is an area containing hair follicles which will generally remain throughout a patient's lifetime. The hair grafts in the Safe Donor region have special properties of strength, durability, and not easily falling out. That’s why the hair in this area is commonly chosen for harvesting hair grafts. To perform NEAT procedure, our skilled and experienced doctor will be the only one who performs the graft-by-graft and strand-by-strand hair transplant procedure, along with techniques developed to enhance the treatment efficiency and effectiveness as well as to deliver the comfort and convenience to our patients.

We have also selected quality hair transplant equipment, imported from abroad, to enable the precision and safety. Importantly, NEAT is a combination of the skills of doctors in terms of science and art. That is, the doctor utilizes the reliable medical science in hair transplantation while also applying an artistic perspective for beauty enhancement. That's because we understand how much the hair means to a patient's appearance, personality, and self-confidence.

Get to know Premium Hair Booster Treatment

Premium Hair Booster Treatment is a convenient treatment because the booster is injected into the target area of the scalp, provided that the hair follicles remain open and continue to regenerate. Premium Hair Booster will directly nourish the flat and thin hair and make it become thicker, denser and stronger, as well as slow down hair falling out and stimulate the hair growth.

The result to be expected is the hair that looks thicker, shinier, and healthier from within. Premium Hair Booster Treatment is highly safe method without any side effects, leaving no scars, and requiring no recovery so you can have the treatments several times under the doctor’s guidance.

Who is NEAT + Premium Hair Booster suitable for?

Actually, many patients can end their hair loss and thinning problems with just one NEAT hair transplant. However, there are many cases where the doctor recommends only Premium Hair Booster Injection without having to undergo a hair transplant provided that the patients come with early stages of hair loss.

Commonly, there are many cases where doctors have analyzed that combining two solutions, NEAT and Premium Hair Booster Treatment, will be the most perfect answer to the patient's concerns. The following examples are the suggested cases:

Patients with thinning hair covering larger areas than can be corrected with a hair transplant alone;

The patient has too few hair grafts left in the Safe Donor Region, located at the lower back of the head, and that’s not enough for implanting into areas with thinning hair problems thoroughly;

Patients who have had a hair transplant surgery before but the outcome were unsuccessful, which may have been due to ineffective treatment (In this case, it means that some of the usable hair grafts has already been removed so the remaining number of hair grafts is likely to be insufficient for the second hair transplant).

Patients who have undergone a hair transplant but neglected taking care of their hair continuously, causing the new hair to fall out or baldness in nearby areas due to lack of proper care.

Patients who come to see the doctor when they are old and have been experiencing severe thinning hair or too many problem areas, like thinning hair on crown and along the hairline at once. By aging, it is often found that the hair grafts themselves will deteriorate as well. That means the usable hair grafts that can actually be removed for implantation are even less.

Patients who are still young but let the problem of thinning hair to continue for many years without seeking an effective treatment early, are also likely to have severe hair thinning that cannot rely on hair transplantation alone.

Consult a doctor to design a treatment plan specifically for you

If you are concerned about the following matters: Is the thinning hair problem we are facing considered severe? How ready are the special hair grafts available on the back of the head for a hair transplant? Are you the one who needs to solve thinning hair problem by combining two options, that is, NEAT and Premium Hair Booster Treatment, together? The best way to relieve your worries is to come talk and consult a doctor so that the doctor can help analyze the problem and current condition, design a personalized treatment approach that is most suitable for each patient. As each patient has different problems, conditions, limitations, and needs, the doctor will listen to the patient carefully and friendly and ask the patient to design a treatment plan together to reach the desired destination.

For example, one patient has problems with thinning hair in many areas but the usable hair grafts left in the Safe Donor Region are insufficient for a thorough implantation. Planning together with the doctor can help him/her determine in which areas he/her needs to address the problem first (the most worrying area). For example, a patient wants first to correct the wider or thinning hairline because it is the point that helps enhance confidence when meeting people. For thinning hair on crown, an injection of Premium Hair Booster Treatment may help to gradually make the hair look thicker and denser. In this way, this patient can solve the problem of thinning hair in both areas at the same time as desired.

As Premium Hair Booster Injection is highly safe, you can have this treatment both before and after undergoing a hair transplant surgery. The frequency of treatments depends on each person's problem condition as well. Typically, after getting a hair transplant, you may receive Premium Hair Booster Treatments every 2 - 4 weeks continuously for 1 year. In order to ensure the satisfactory results, the doctor will always follow-up on the progress and adjust the treatment plan to be most appropriate at all times.

Attention is the Key

The key to combining two solutions to successfully solve the thinning hair problem is the care of Dr. Nin. that each patient will be given from the days of discussion and consultation, designing an effective treatment method, and implanting hair grafts strand-by-strand. After that, for one year, our doctor will always give advice and answer patients' questions sincerely. All of this becomes a friendship and bond between the doctor and the patient, on the path of hair treatment and restoration that is waiting for you to come and prove it yourself today.
