Hair Transplant Surgery; Is it worth the risk?

Wayne Rooney underwent a much publicised hair transplant during the summer which seems to have taken quite well for the Manchester United striker. Rooney even recently had his new locks dyed brown as he was concerned about going grey.

Hair transplanting is a cosmetic procedure which is ever growing in popularity, the procedure harvests individual hair follicles from other parts of the scalp and transplants then into the balding area, the surgery can take hours to perform. Not only does the procedure take a long time but patients of the procedure will not know for in the region of 3 months if the transplant has been successful.

As with any surgical procedure there are risks; the follicle may die and the transplant may not take, the transplant can leave scarring and the hair growth maybe unnatural.

There is also the possibility of a mistake by the surgeon such as the grafts being to large, the hairline being placed in the wrong place, the hair being placed in the wrong direction or you could be left with a large disfiguring scar.
