Who is suitable for a hair transplant?

Suitability depends on donor area density, loss pattern and general health. A clear decision is made after a doctor examination and scalp assessment.

What is the difference between FUE and DHI?

In both methods grafts are harvested one by one. In FUE, channel opening and placement are separate steps; in DHI they are done in one step with a Choi pen. The doctor decides which method is appropriate after evaluating the donor and recipient areas.

Is the procedure painful and what anaesthesia is used?

Hair transplantation is performed under local anaesthesia only. There may be a brief sensation while the anaesthesia is applied; the area is numb throughout the procedure, which is doctor supervised.

How long does the procedure take?

Depending on graft count and method, a single session usually takes 6–8 hours. An estimate specific to you is shared in the planning consultation.

How does the recovery process progress?

In the first days, crusting and mild redness may be seen in the recipient area. Washing instructions are provided by the doctor. Results vary from person to person and become clearer over time.

Will the transplanted hair shed?

In the weeks after the procedure, a temporary shedding (shock loss) can occur; this is an expected phase. New growth is followed over the following months. The process differs by individual.

Will there be a scar in the donor area?

In FUE and its variants, grafts are taken one by one so there is no suture scar; micro punctate marks are largely inconspicuous even with short hair. Healing varies by person.

I am travelling from out of town/abroad, how is the process planned?

We start with an online assessment and build the travel and accommodation plan together. A short stay is usually sufficient; details are confirmed with your patient coordinator.

How is the online assessment done?

When you share photos of your scalp, our team routes them for doctor assessment. This is preliminary guidance, not a diagnosis; the definitive plan is formed after examination.

What can be said about the outcome?

A hair transplant is a medical procedure; results vary from person to person and depend on multiple factors. For this reason no guaranteed outcome is promised; realistic expectations are discussed with the doctor.

What is a hair transplant, and who may be suitable for it?

A hair transplant is a surgical procedure, performed under doctor supervision and local anaesthesia, in which a person's own hair follicles (grafts) are taken from a dense donor area and placed into a region where thinning is seen.

The procedure is generally considered for adults whose hair has thinned due to androgenetic (male- or female pattern) hair loss, a past injury or scarring. Suitability is determined individually by the doctor, based on the capacity of the donor area, the stage of hair loss, age and overall health.

Hair transplant methods

FUE Hair Transplant

In the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method, grafts are harvested one by one from the donor area with micro motor punches and placed into the prepared channels. It is a technique that proceeds by collecting follicles individually, without a strip incision in the donor area.

DHI Hair Transplant

In the DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) method, grafts are placed in a single step using a special tool called a Choi pen; channel opening and implantation take place in the same stage. It is an application in which the direction and angle of hair growth can be guided with the pen.

Sapphire FUE

Sapphire FUE is an application of the FUE technique in which special blades with sapphire tips are used instead of steel during the channel opening stage. Graft harvesting proceeds in the same way as FUE, while the channels are opened with the smooth, fine structure of the sapphire tips.
