The Procedure

Types of Hair Transplant Techniques

*Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

  • In the FUE procedure, individual hair follicles are extracted from donor areas like the back of the head, beard, or chest and strategically implanted into areas of thinning or baldness. This process ensures natural results under local anesthesia.
  • FUE is often called a “scarless” hair transplant due to the nearly invisible scars, making it a top choice for those who prefer short hairstyles. Minimal side effects and quick recovery are additional benefits.
  • Dr. Neel Gupta, a renowned plastic surgeon at NG Plastic Surgery, performs FUE procedures, offering scar-free results and a natural-looking hairline. Known for some of the best hair transplant results in Ahmedabad, Dr. Gupta’s expertise ensures patient satisfaction.

*Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT) – Strip Surgery

  • This surgical technique involves removing a strip of hair-bearing skin from the back or sides of the head. The follicular units (containing 1-3 hairs) are then implanted into thinning areas.
  • FUT, when performed by skilled surgeons, leaves only a thin scar. Dr. Harsh Amin uses the advanced Trychophytic Closure Technique, allowing hair to grow through the scar for minimal visibility.
  • FUT is ideal for patients requiring a larger number of grafts (3000-4000), especially those with curly hair.

Postoperative Recovery

  • Hair Transplant after Surgery recovery involves several stages:
  • Immediate Recovery: Mild swelling, redness, or scabbing may occur in the donor and recipient areas, which typically subsides within a week.
  • Wound Care: Follow the surgeon's instructions for cleaning the scalp and applying prescribed ointments to prevent infection and promote healing.
  • Activity Restrictions: Avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and direct sun exposure for at least 2 weeks to protect the transplanted grafts.
  • Hair Growth Timeline: Transplanted hair may shed in the first few weeks, followed by new growth starting within 3-4 months, with full results visible after 12 months.
  • Follow-Up Appointments: Regular check-ups are necessary to monitor healing, assess graft survival, and discuss any concerns during recovery.
