How soon will I notice benefits from my hair transplant?
The transplanted hair typically undergoes initial growth within the initial two to three months post-surgery. Subsequently, continued growth is expected, and our comprehensive aftercare program will provide you with expert guidance and support to optimize your results. Full regeneration of the transplanted hair can be anticipated within 12-18 months following your surgery.
How long does a hair transplant surgery take?
The duration of a hair transplant surgery varies depending on the patient’s health and the extent of the procedure, typically lasting between 6-8 hours. However, if the area requiring transplantation is larger, the surgery may take longer.
How important is the age factor in hair transplantation?
Age is a crucial factor in hair transplantation as it affects various aspects of the procedure and outcomes. Younger patients typically between 20-40 years have better donor hair quality and a more stable progression of hair loss, making them ideal candidates for transplantation. Additionally, younger individuals often have higher expectations for aesthetic outcomes. However, older patients (above the age of 50 years) will also benefit from hair transplantation, although considerations such as overall health, potential future hair loss, and realistic expectations become more significant. Ultimately, a thorough evaluation by our hair transplant specialist is essential to determine the suitability of the procedure based on individual factors, regardless of age.
Will the hair from where I have transplanted ever grow back?
In most cases, the hair grows back in the area following a hair transplant procedure. The donor hair is typically harvested from areas of the scalp that are genetically resistant to balding, allowing for regrowth after the transplantation process.
Is the season of the year a factor in hair transplantation?
There isn’t a specific season considered best for hair transplant surgery. However, some patients prefer cooler months to avoid excessive sweating and sun exposure during the recovery period. Ultimately, the timing depends on personal preference and the ability to follow post-operative care instructions regardless of the season. Our experts will guide you throughout the process regardless of the season.
Do I have to shave my head?
No, it’s not mandatory. We provide diverse options, including the unshaven technique, ensuring optimal results and expert guidance from our team of hair specialists. You can rest assured that you’ll receive personalized advice tailored to your needs and preferences.
Is a hair transplant surgery permanent?
Yes, hair transplant procedures are considered permanent. During the surgery, hair follicles from the donor area, usually the back or sides of the scalp, are transplanted to the recipient area experiencing hair loss. These transplanted follicles are genetically resistant to balding, meaning they will continue to grow hair in their new location indefinitely. While the transplanted hair may undergo shedding initially, it regrows within a few months, providing lasting results. However, it’s important to note that the natural aging process may still lead to hair thinning in
Can women have a hair transplant?
Yes, women can undergo hair transplant procedures. While female pattern baldness differs from that in men, transplant techniques can effectively address thinning or receding hairlines in women.
