Frequently Asked Questions
What to Expect From a Hair Transplant
Using the state-of-the-art NeoGraft hair transplant technology, our surgeons practice the process of revitalizing dormant hair follicles by taking healthy hair follicles and repositioning them at the thinning site. Our skilled hair transplant surgeons transplant the new follicle one at a time. A hair transplant only needs to be performed once because the new hair follicles are genetically resistant to balding or thinning.
How to Prepare for a NeoGraft Procedure
Patients must come with short hair. Shorter hair is easier to work with and allows the surgeon to make better observations of any noticeable changes.
How Long is the Procedure?
The length of the procedure varies with the goal of each patient. Generally, a hair transplant can take between 3 – 8 hours. The procedure is divided into two separate sessions known as harvesting and placement.
What to Expect During and After the Procedure
Surgeons administer an anesthetic to make sure that patients feel comfortable throughout the process. After the procedure, patients may experience some soreness. The scalp also sheds to remove any dead tissue. Special care must be given to the scalp. Avoid any strenuous activity for about a week after the procedure. A topical ointment for the scalp is given to alleviate any soreness.
How Natural are the Results
Our skilled surgeons work hard to ensure that your results are as natural as possible. Factors, such as age, are taken into consideration to provide appropriate results. The hair retains the same texture and feature as before. The full results of a hair transplant can take up to a year. A healthy hair regime that includes safe ingredients for the scalp is all the maintenance that is required post NeoGraft procedure.
