FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What causes hair thinning or baldness?
In the past, hair loss was primarily associated with aging. However, that is no longer the case. Today, various factors contribute to hair loss, including poor dietary habits, unhealthy lifestyles, weakened immune systems, chronic illnesses, and certain medications. To identify the root cause of your hair loss, it is essential to visit a reputable hair transplant clinic. A hair transplant specialist can accurately diagnose the reason behind your hair loss and recommend the appropriate treatment based on a thorough evaluation.

How does a hair transplant work?
A hair transplant involves extracting hair follicles from the donor area, typically located at the back of the head, and implanting them into balding or thinning areas. The hair in the donor region is naturally resistant to Dihydrotestosterone, the hormone responsible for hair loss.
When transplanted to the front hairline or crown, these hair follicles continue to grow naturally for a lifetime and can be cut or styled according to your preference.
The procedure is completed in just one day, with a quick recovery period. Our expert team will work with you to create a hairline design that complements your features and enhances your overall appearance.
Is a hair transplant painful?
Overall, no. We use local anesthetic for a painless experience, and oral sedatives to allow you to relax completely or even fall asleep. This allows you to catch up on rest, leaving fresher than you arrived, and avoids the risks of general anesthetic.
It’s common to feel some ‘fullness’ in the hairline for a few days following the procedure with mild swelling, but rarely do patients require further pain medication.
