The hair transplant journey involves several stages, from initial consultation to final results. The first stage is initial consultation, followed by pre-operative preparation. The surgery duration is normally four to eight hours. After surgery, one can expect swelling, discomfort and scabbing. In the following weeks, shedding phase takes place, where transplanted hairs may fall off due to shock loss, but this is temporary.
For post-procedure care, the doctors advise that the patient follows the surgeon’s instructions, which is to adhere to post-operative care guidelines to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
According to the clinic, patience and regular follow-ups are key. “Booking a consultation is the first step: the doctor needs to assess your scalp condition and the extent of hair loss to provide an accurate quotation,” they penned.
