Suitable For
Selected patients with stable hair loss and adequate donor hair after specialist evaluation.
Treatment Procedure
The scalp is assessed and planned. Donor follicles are harvested using the selected technique and prepared for implantation. Follicular units are then placed into recipient sites at planned angles and density.
Treatment Duration
Several hours depending on graft number and technique
Recovery / Downtime
Scalp swelling, redness, tenderness and crusting can occur during early healing.
Number of Sessions
Often one session, although additional procedures may be considered depending on goals and donor supply.
Results Timeline
Transplanted hair grows gradually; visible growth commonly takes several months and continues to mature over time.
Aftercare Instructions
Follow washing and medication instructions; avoid scratching or trauma; protect the scalp as advised; attend scheduled follow-ups.
Important Precautions
Medical assessment is required to confirm the cause of hair loss, donor suitability and surgical fitness.
