Regular Member Johnny1386 Posted September 28, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted September 28, 2010 Hello I am sure all hair colours are suitable for hair transplantation but would you say darker hair would get a potential better result ? ....this raises another question. the lighter the skin colour the more noticable the receptent area would be right after the procedure and a couple days after then a person who has darker skin?

Dr. Bernardino Arocha Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Johnny1386, Hair color does have a significant impact on hair restoration outcomes. It is the amount of contrast between the skin color or complexion and the hair color that is important. That is, dark hair with pale complexion will appear thinner, while dark hair with a dark complexion will camouflage better hence appear thicker. For more information on hair characteristics and their impact on outcomes, please see:How Hair Characteristics Impact Hair Transplant Results | Hair Loss Q & A Dr. Bernardino Arocha is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Glenn Charles Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 I agree that hair color is one of the most important hair characteristics along with texture, hair shaft diameter, and hair type (straight vs curly/wavy. Each patient has a different combination of these characteristics which play a significant role in the results of a hair restoration procedure.

Senior Member Tom60 Posted September 29, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted September 29, 2010 im guessing that doctors determine the best combination for their patients, correct? How are all these decisions determined? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
