China\u2019s Qing dynasty also had a pigtail hairstyle that concealed men\u2019s baldness. Because of this, it was believed that male pattern baldness was more prevalent in Caucasians than in Asians. This theory is not yet proven, but there are important differences between the hair and scalp of Asians and Caucasians which play big roles in the conduct of\u00a0<a href=\"\/es\/\">hair transplant procedures<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Asians have round skulls while Caucasians typically have oblong-shaped skulls. This means that although the typical Asian skull is short, Asians have larger heads than Caucasians.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Asians have flatter hairlines than Caucasians. Asian hairlines are also located a little lower which means hair transplant in Asian men requires more hair than in Caucasian men. It is very important for doctors to consider this anatomical feature when trying to create a natural-looking hairline.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Asians have tighter and thicker scalps. This makes it difficult for doctors to apply the dissection technique when harvesting for hair donor.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Transection is more probable in Asians during harvesting of donors and preparing of grafts because their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maximhairrestoration.com\/es\/what-is-a-mega-sessions-hair-transplant\/\">fol\u00edculos capilares<\/a> are longer.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 The metabolism of Asian hair follicles is more active than those of their Caucasian counterparts. Doctors need to be very careful in preserving Asian hair follicles for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maximhairrestoration.com\/es\/what-is-hair-transplant\/\">trasplantes de cabello<\/a>. They are more prone to dehydration.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 A larger donor strip is needed from the Asian scalp. This is because Asians have lower hair density than Caucasians.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Asians are more vulnerable to hypertrophic scars. Because of this, doctors avoid aggressive donor harvesting and consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maximhairrestoration.com\/es\/servicios\/follicular-unit-extraction\/\">follicular unit extraction<\/a> instead.<\/p>\n<p>Understanding the differences between the scalp and hair of Asians and Caucasians is important in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maximhairrestoration.com\/es\/que-porcentaje-de-los-trasplantes-de-cabello-son-exitosos\/\">success of hair transplant<\/a> operations.
