A hair transplant is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that:
Relocates healthy hair follicles from dense areas (usually back/sides of scalp)
Implants them strategically in thinning/balding regions
Creates natural-looking density with permanent results
Ideal candidates include those with:
✓ Male/female pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia)
✓ Stable donor area (enough healthy follicles for extraction)
✓ Realistic expectations about results
Note: Patients with widespread thinning or autoimmune hair loss may require alternative treatments.
How It Works:
A thin strip of scalp is removed from the donor area
Follicular units are dissected under a microscope
Grafts are implanted in recipient sites
Best For:
✔ Patients needing high graft numbers (3,000-5,000 per session)
✔ Those prioritizing cost-efficiency
Considerations:
Leaves a linear scar (hidden under hair)
Requires 7-10 days recovery
How It Works:
Individual follicles are extracted using a micro-punch tool
Tiny dot scars (virtually undetectable)
Best For:
✔ Patients who wear short hairstyles
✔ Those wanting minimal downtime (3-5 days)
Considerations:
More time-consuming (fewer grafts per session)
Higher cost per graft
Scalp analysis (Norwood Scale for men, Ludwig Scale for women)
Graft estimate (based on hair loss severity)
Customized hairline design (natural-looking results)
✔ Local anesthesia for comfort
✔ Graft extraction (FUT or FUE)
✔ Artistic implantation (mimics natural growth patterns)
✔ Duration: 4-8 hours (depending on grafts needed)
First Week: Minor swelling, scabbing (resolves quickly)
2-4 Weeks: Transplanted hair sheds (normal part of process)
3-6 Months: New growth begins (~60% visible)
12+ Months: Full, natural-looking density
✅ Permanent solution (DHT-resistant follicles)
✅ Natural-looking results (undetectable when done well)
✅ Minimal downtime (back to work in days)
✅ Boosts confidence (restores youthful appearance)
Pro Tip:
Combining with PRP therapy can enhance graft survival
Robotic FUE (ARTAS) improves precision
A: Most patients report only mild discomfort (thanks to local anesthesia).
A: No—new growth appears gradually over 6-12 months.
A: Yes! Female hair transplants are common but require careful evaluation.
A: Permanently—transplanted hair is genetically resistant to balding.
If you’re struggling with hair loss, a well-performed hair transplant can be life-changing. Advances in FUE and FUT techniques now deliver undetectable, long-lasting results.
Next Steps:
