After a hair transplant, the transplanted area should be protected from the sun. Initial aftercare includes dressing and de-scabbing on day seven, followed by regular shampooing. It is normal for the relocated hairs to fall out within the first few weeks, a process known as “shock loss.” However, the transplanted hair follicles will continue to grow new hair, which will thicken over the next six to eight months. Following these steps will promote proper healing and optimal results.
No, a hair transplant is generally not painful. Apart from the initial needle prick to inject anesthesia, the procedure itself is usually comfortable. Our team ensures that the patient has a smooth and comfortable experience throughout the process
Transplanted hair typically falls out a few weeks after the procedure due to “shock loss.” However, new hair growth will start in 3-4 weeks. Complete results, including fully grown and thickened hair, can be expected in 6-8 months.
Hair implanted using precise extraction techniques from the donor area generally remains on the scalp for life. However, natural hair growth cycles involve shedding and regrowth every 2-3 years. This means that while the implanted follicles persist, individual hairs may fall out periodically and new ones will grow in their place.
No, it is not possible for someone else to serve as a donor for a client who lacks a sufficient donor area. Each person’s genetic makeup and tissue compatibility are unique, making donor tissue from another individual incompatible for transplantation.
