The technique of Dr. Yung Chul Choi Transplanter or Monobulb Transplant, has a limited trauma over the scalp and also it has not much effect over the blood circulation. Thus resulting in a minimun cicatrix almost not visible.
Furthemore this treatment will guarantee a better esthetic result because of the possibility to insert the hair in the most homogeneous way and their direction completly natural.This technic is using a particular tool similar to a syringe which has been invented for this purpose from a korean physician Dr. Yung Chul Choi. With the help of this tool the hair bulb are singularly transplanted on the scalp without any cutting but simply puncturing with the syringe needle.
THE MONO BULB AUTOTRANSPLANT is actually the most celebrated for the treatment of androgenic baldness, the only disadvantage is the difficulty to insert large quantity of hair in one session.
The help of the Choi Hair Transplanter makes it easier to insert the hair follicle and reduces the trauma over the scalp with best aesthetic result.
THE SURGERY
For this type of surgery it is not necessary to be hospitalized since a surgery ambulatory is well suited for the purpose.
Before the surgery the patient will pass a general check up directly from the surgeons, which will have a look over the spot to be treated and possibly the causes for the hair loss due to congenital deseise or assumed from the patient.
After the careful tests and laboratory analisys, the surgery will be made with local anaesthesia.The procedure will begin taking a row of hair follicles to be transplanted, from the back part or the sides (where hair last forever). This cutting will be closed with a few stitches and the sicatrix covered from other hair will be invisible Then with the help of a hand-glass or microscope the hair bulbs will be separeted as single ones and only the bulb with the hair root will be inserted in the desired spot. The bulbs will be inserted with the help of transplanters as seen in the photo. The aesthetic result will be a perfect natural one, because of the regular distribution, rebuilding the former hair. The tiny hole caused from the transplanter will close automatically over the transplanted bulb and the day after only a little crust will stay for a few days then dropping by itself. This technic will allow to add more hair density as well as to restor hair in bald areas. We have the possibility to insert one hair at the time in spots where the hair are gone, giving you a completly natural look. It is possible to transplant between 800 to 1500 and more hair in one session with no possible rejection because the body will recognize the new bulbs as its own biological structure. These hair even though coming from other spot on the scalp, they still belong to the same person. The antibodies on the scalp won't damage the bulbs as it may happen with artificial hair.
CONVALESCENCE
After surgery the patient may leave the ambulatory and return to normal activity the following day. Over the spot treated may be applied a gauze for higenic reasons for one day. After the session the patient has to follow a short treatment with antibiotics and antiinflammatories besides following a few advices like avoiding traumas over the surgery and not to scrabble off the little crusts, they will drop off after a few days naturally. After the 3rd day it is possible to shampoo also the transplanted area with a common delicate shampoo. The following days after surgery (3rd-4th day) if the treatment was in the front part, there might be a slightly swelling
ACHIEVEMENTS
Hair growth is guaranteed. After the temporarely loss of the transplanted hair, usually it happens within one month, the new hair will regrowth from the second to the fourth month. This means that the single transplanted bulbs will have their normal life cycle, thus the hair will be born, will regrow, will drop and will regrow following the natural physiological cycle but overall they will never drop any more.
WHEN AUTOTRANSPLANT
There is no age limit for the patient to use this technic. The autotransplant can be applyed for both partially hair loss as well as for wide baldness. The only requirement and essential is that the patient must still have spots with enough hair density, in order to satisfy the transplanting in areas where the hair are missing.
COST
The cost may vary depending on the case from 2000 to 5000 euros
TRADITIONAL AUTOTRANSPLANT |
MONOBULB AUTOTRANSPLANT |

The very tiny needles allow to insert a high number of bulbs and some cases need only one or two sessions in order to achieve a satisfactory result.
