Hair transplantation is a medical procedure that offers a permanent and natural-looking solution for individuals experiencing hair loss. It involves transferring healthy hair follicles, typically from the back or sides of the scalp, to areas affected by hair thinning or balding. Modern techniques like FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) allow for minimally invasive procedures that deliver a seamless and natural appearance.
In the FUE technique, hair follicles are individually extracted and implanted in the target area, leaving minimal scarring and allowing for a quicker recovery. With FUT, follicles are taken in a strip and then transplanted. When performed by experienced surgeons, both methods produce thick, natural results.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, minimizing pain. A few weeks after the transplant, shedding of transplanted hair is expected, which is a normal part of the process. New hair growth begins shortly after, with full results typically visible within 12-18 months. Hair transplantation provides a lasting, confidence-boosting solution, enhancing quality of life with fuller, natural-looking hair.
