Bosley hair transplants can help transform a balding head to one that is much healthier and fuller in appearance.  It is little wonder that those considering the procedure are curious about how long Bosley hair transplants last.  To better understand the answer to this question, it is helpful to understand a bit about the procedure and how hair grows.

Understanding Your Hair

Nearly every head of hair contains what are referred to as lifelong hair follicles.  These follicles have been genetically programmed to continue to grow hair throughout the person’s lifetime.  Unless a medical condition has resulted in the balding, the loss of hair is caused by certain follicles that have been programmed to stop growing after a certain time. 

When you undergo a Bosley hair transplant, the lifelong hair follicles are transplanted to an area where the hair is no longer growing.  Since these follicles have been programmed to continue to grow, they are not affected by changes in hormones in the same way as the follicles they are replacing.  As a result, a person undergoing a Bosley hair transplant can expect to have the transplanted hair remain in place for his or her lifetime.

When Losing Hair After a Bosley Hair Transplant is Possible

In some cases, those that have undergone a Bosley hair transplant do lose a small percentage of the transplanted hair as they age.  In addition, those that have lost hair due to Lupus may also experience lose of transplants.  This is because the Lupus process that caused the hair to be lost in the first place can occur again.  For this reason, Bosley physicians do not recommend transplanting healthy follicles to areas of the scalp where the hair was lost due to Lupus.  If the Lupus occurred a long time ago and has not been active for many years, it may be possible to successfully transplant follicles.  It is important to discuss this situation openly and honestly with the physician in order to determine the right course of action.
