HAIR TRANSPLANTATION
The hair transplant procedure includes removing individual hair follicles from the skin and placing them on the scalp or other regions where there aren't enough or thin hairs. In order to combat hair loss or thinning issues, this would make the hair in the new region appear thicker.
How it works
The Hair Transplant Process
- Let's examine the process of hair transplantation.
- The procedure begins with the surgeon shaving the donor area's hair, which contains the hair follicles that will be used in the transplant.
- The hair follicles are then moved to the recipient location in the following stage.
- The doctors extract the hair follicle from the skin using a micropunch tool
- Then the surgeons make an array of very small entry points with the help of a needle in the recipient area where the extracted follicles would be inserted.
- In the next step, the extracted follicles are inserted into the small spaces ( entry points ).
- Finally, the surgeons would clean and bandage the area where hair was taken for healing and recovery.

Preparation & Aftercare
The surgeon meticulously cleans the scalp before starting the procedure. The surgeon will numb the scalp with local anaesthesia following the cleansing. After that, a knife will be used to cut away some of the hair-covered scalp. After that, the region will be properly sewn.
The doctors perform a number of tests on the patient before the procedure to make sure they are healthy enough for it. Blood tests, allergy tests, and liver function tests are just a few of the tests that will be performed. The surgeon will also look at the donor's hair area. Additionally, he would advise the patient to adhere to specific pre-operative guidelines in order to prevent any complications during the procedure.
The surgeon will cut the scalp into tiny pieces that will later be inserted into the bald area of the head using a sharp surgical knife and a magnifying glass. The surgeon will apply bandages to the region for healing after the transplant. The entire procedure could take up to four hours or longer.
Depending on the extent of their hair loss, a person may need to undergo the hair transplant procedure twice. To treat conditions such as pain, swelling, and a sore scalp, the patient will need to take medication on a daily basis. The medications also assist in lowering the possibility of infection following surgery. Additionally, medications are provided to promote hair growth and prevent further hair loss.
Most patients who undergo the procedure typically go back to work few days following the procedure. The patient may also be bothered by the transplanted hair falling out. This is known as "shock loss." However, because it provides room for new hair growth, it is a natural occurrence. Nine months after surgery, noticeable and adequate hair growth is typically seen.
