Bojanini Experts

Researching about the Hair Implant Bogota can be overwhelming. From our experience, caring for patients from various countries around the world at Bojanini Experts, we have found that trying to understand all aspects of this technique, with the wide range of technical concepts and specialized terminology, can be challenging.

In this article, we present you with a complete glossary of the terms that we commonly use with our patients when discussing hair implant as an option for their hair recovery treatment.

This content is designed to unravel complex language and help you better understand this hair loss solution.

Let's go with the Hair Implant glossary!

  1. Alopecia: A medical condition characterized by hair loss in specific areas of the scalp or body.
  1. Local anesthesia: A type of anesthesia that is administered by injection only into the specific area of the procedure, without losing consciousness.
  1. Cicatrization: Healing process of surgical incisions and skin recovery after hair transplantation.
  1. Hair density: The number of hairs present in a certain area of the scalp.
  1. Hair follicle: Structure of the skin that produces and gives rise to hair.
  1. Hair implant: A surgical procedure in which hair follicles are transplanted from a genetically healthy donor area without baldness to a recipient area to treat hair loss.
  1. Line of implementation: Line that marks the front edge of the transplanted hair in the recipient area.
  1. Minigraft: Hair transplant technique that consists of implanting groups of 2 to 4 hairs.
  1. Postoperative medication: Medications prescribed to prevent infection, reduce inflammation, or promote healing after hair implantation.
  1. Punch: A cylinder-shaped surgical instrument used to remove hair follicles from the donor area.
  1. Postoperative: Recovery period after the hair implant surgical procedure.
  1. Final results: Final appearance of the hair after the hair implant, which is achieved approximately several months after the procedure.
  1. Shock loss: Temporary loss of existing hair due to surgical trauma to the transplanted area. This process is normal and we expect it to happen in patients who have surgery.
  1. Follicular unit extraction technique (FUE): This minimally invasive technique consists of extracting one by one, the hair genetically resistant to hair loss, located at the height of the nape of the neck by excision. The extracted follicles are sorted and prepared for grafting by controlling the depth, direction, and mimicking each patient’s hair growth patterns. This ensures that the grafted and relocated hair looks the same as the native hair.
  1. Strip Removal Technique (FUT): It is a more invasive method of hair implantation, where a strip of scalp is removed from the donor area to obtain the hair follicles.
  1. Eyebrow transplantation: Procedure similar to the Bogota hair implant that is performed on the eyebrows to correct hair loss in this area.
  1. Beard transplant: Hair implant that is carried out in the beard area to increase density or cover areas with missing facial hair.
  1. Follicular unit: It is an anatomical unit where several follicles grow together.
  1. Donor area: The area of the scalp where healthy hair follicles are removed for transplantation.
  1. Receiving area: Area of the scalp where hair follicles extracted from the donor area are implanted
