Side Effects Appeared After Undergoing Hair Transplant Surgery

A story has emerged about a man experiencing swelling of the scalp as a side effect after a hair transplant.

On the 19th (local time), British media outlets including The Sun reported on a man named Kana Plex who is suffering from severe side effects after a hair transplant. Recently, he visited a hospital to treat his hair loss. He went to a hair transplant clinic in London, which is said to have been visited by celebrities. After consultation, he decided to implant 8,000 hair follicles. However, after the transplant surgery, Kana experienced swelling of his scalp as a side effect. He explained, "I had the hair transplant at a famous place that even rappers and other celebrities visit, but side effects appeared," adding, "My head swelled up like a balloon."

When the symptoms did not improve for several days, Kana shared his condition on social media (SNS). The video received over 4.5 million views and attracted attention. Netizens reacted with comments such as "He looks like Megamind," "I've never seen swelling like this before," and "His appearance is so funny, but he must be really suffering." It is reported that Kana is currently focusing on recovering his scalp. It is not known whether he received proper aftercare from the hospital.

Meanwhile, the hair transplant procedure Kana underwent involves properly redistributing his own hair. It makes bald areas appear fuller and neatly shapes the hairline. Hair transplantation can be considered in cases of significant hair loss concerns or when hair does not grow due to burns, surgical scars, or other conditions, as in the story above.

Hair transplantation is broadly divided into incision and non-incision methods. The incision method involves cutting a portion of the scalp and individually harvesting hair follicles for transplantation. In contrast, the non-incision method does not require cutting the scalp, which reduces the risk of complications. Another advantage is that the area where follicles are harvested does not need to be shaved, making the surgery less noticeable immediately afterward. However, as with any procedure, attention should be paid to side effects such as itching and folliculitis.
