The Trilix is so
small that it leaves no evident scarring. It is
just big enough to remove, without damage, one complete
hair follicle. It is the tiny diameter of the tip
of HSD’s innovative surgical instrument, the
Trilix, that makes our hair transplant technique
so totally different from all previous techniques,
and guarantees extremely natural looking results
without cutting the scalp.
The Trilix has a hollow tip of only a
millimetre in diameter, that rotates at a very high
speed. The transplant surgeon uses this to remove
dextrously a tiny piece of scalp holding one whole
healthy hair follicle (Follicular unit). This follicle and the tiny
piece of scalp surrounding it is then transplanted,
using the same instrument, to the area of scalp
requiring repopulation.
The surgeon uses the Trilix to create a tiny pocket
of exactly the same size as the donor patch, so
that the circumference forms a perfect join and
does not bleed or leave ugly scarring.
The ease
with which the Trilix can be manoeuvred makes it
possible to achieve totally personalised transplants
not only in terms of the hairline and the area requiring
repopulation but also in terms of the donor area.
Conventional hair transplant surgery removes donor
follicles by cutting out a strip of skin from the
back of the head, leaving a highly visible horizontal
scar.
What makes the Trilix method so innovative is the
fact that it removes individual hair follicles in
an even, distributed manner, leaving absolutely
no sign that surgery has taken place whereas older
surgical techniques inevitably left long scars.
The donor area requires no stitches as a result,
and the tiny holes left by the Trilix heal perfectly
with the aid of simple medication, leaving no visible
scarring whatsoever. |
