Curly and frizzy hair

Because of the hair structure of frizzy hair, afro hair or very curly hair, a hair transplant for this type of hair is counted among the specialized hair transplant treatments. This is because the hair roots also show the twisted structure under the skin as above the skin. This makes extracting the grafts with the FUE method more complex. At Zantman Clinic we have a lot of experience with this variant of the FUE method and you can get good advice. On our central page about hair transplantation you can read more about the general procedure, recovery and result expectations.

An FUE frizzy hair transplant is a treatment that is more complex and therefore takes more time. For this reason, the number of grafts that can be transplanted per day is lower than with a regular FUE treatment.

An FUT frizzy hair transplant does allow a large number of grafts to be made available at one time, as a strip of skin with grafts is removed from the back of the head. In practice, however, the disadvantages of FUT treatment are often still a reason to opt for multiple, smaller FUE frizzy hair treatments. Furthermore, it is important to be informed about the risk of scarring or keloid. This frequently occurs with skin with frizzy hair.

Due to the unique properties of the strongly curly hair, the result of a treatment is often faster than that of a regular FUE hair transplant. Curly hair covers a larger part of the skin than straight hair. This means that with a lower number of grafts a good covering result can still be achieved with a treatment.

Not all hair transplant clinics perform FUE with frizzy hair. Within the medical team at Zantman Clinic , there is a lot of experience with this type of hair transplantation. Ultimately, the success rate of this treatment is directly linked to the experience of the medical team. Especially in the removal of the grafts. During the non-binding consultation you can get informed about the hair transplant options for having this treatment done.
