Hair Transplantation

Hair transplantation is a surgical hair-restoration procedure that transfers suitable hair follicles from a donor area to areas affected by thinning or hair loss.

Hair transplant planning is based on the pattern and degree of hair loss, donor hair density, scalp condition, available follicles, and desired hairline design.

Assessment May Include

• Pattern of hair loss
  

• Donor hair density
  

• Scalp condition
  

• Hairline design
  

• Availability of donor follicles
  

• Medical history related to hair loss

May Be Suitable For

• Male-pattern hair loss
  

• Female-pattern thinning in selected cases
  

• Receding hairline
  

• Localized areas of hair loss
  

• Patients with adequate donor hair

Recovery & Considerations

Temporary redness, swelling, scabbing, or scalp sensitivity may occur. Transplanted hair typically goes through several stages before visible growth develops.
