Wigs have been around from centuries, but cranial hair prosthesis, also known as medical hair prosthesis or simply called cancer wig is a product created just a few decades ago when new technology like synthetic scalp membrane came available. Before then it was nearly impossible to build the perfect cranial hair prosthesis product without the current sophisticated equipment.
Rodolfo Valentin was the designer of the first cranial hair prosthesis in the world making use of new tools and continuously improving the product over the decades at the same moment that new tools become available. He designed the first cranial hair prosthesis in 1973. In fact he made the first prosthetic hair for his mother a chemotherapy patient losing her hair due to the treatments.
Before then people losing their hair due to chemotherapy treatments only had available regular wigs that were very uncomfortable and that kept falling off from their head. It was also giving them bad allergic reactions from the contact with the material and the foreign hair.
The difference between a wig and a cranial hair prosthesis for women or a hair prosthesis for men is that a wig does not uses hypoallergenic material (inexistent until few decades ago) and the double-sided tape (invented for medical reasons) is also available from few decades ago. Rodolfo used that tape to hold the wig in the head of the patients when getting “bald” after chemotherapy attaching it to polyurethane patches strategically added on the temples, front and lower back of the hair prosthesis.
When the hair returned to grow back those patches were replaced by special pin-clips to hold it from the patient's own hair. Rodolfo designed the cranial mold by taking it using a plastic sheet and then using a hypoallergenic material to create a base where to attach the ventilated hair (one by one) making sure that the hair does not touch the over sensitive cranial skin to avoid sores. He called it "cancer wig" and some people still do, the name of "hair prosthesis" came out for insurance purposes, because insurances only cover "prosthesis", from there the name of "hair prosthesis" (prostheses) for plural. Women and men suffering from baldness, alopecia, trichotillomania, thinning hair and any other hair loss reasons benefit from this prosthetic product.
