FAQ’s

A hair transplant is the process of taking hair from regions of the head that are resistant to balding, and implanting the resistant strands on parts of the head that are balding. It is a permanent process because hair taken from balding resistant areas will be resistant to balding wherever they are placed.

Normally the hair grows in bunch of hairs on the scalp. These naturally occurring groups of hair are called as Follicular units or grafts. These units may have anywhere between 1-4 hair in it. On an average we each follicular unit have around 2.4 hairs.

Laser produces one size uniform inverted cone shaped sites by generating heat and destroying body tissue. Insertion of follicles becomes difficult, as they are never of similar size. There is more pop-out ratio due to narrow base and wide opening of the shape of the cavity. Heat generated during creation of the site, reduces the blood supply for take up of follicles, resulting in poor yield as end result

• Androgenetic Alopecia: male pattern baldness (MPB) contributes to 95% of all hair loss and female pattern baldness.
• These are the most common cause of baldness
• Smoking
• Alcohol
• Stress
• Genetic : hereditary occurring in the family
• Mechanical damage: traction alopecia due to continuous and prolonged use of wigs or hair weaving or hair bonding etc.
• Systematic Medical Problems: (Hypothyroidism, High fever, Pregnancy
• Medications : Anti cancer drugs and radiotherapy
• Alopecia Areta: Patchy hair loss due to immune system disorder
• Telogen Efflueum: Diffuse loss of long hairs with roots
• Dermatological: any diseases.of skin particularly affecting scalp
• Diet: Vitamin A ,E, and B deficiency and iron deficiency
• Chemical damage: Bleaches, dyes, hard water, low quality cosmetic applications
• Idiopathic : no definitve cause

Two most common drugs prescribed for androgenetic pattern hair loss all over the world are Minoxidil which is a topical medication for both men and women that is applied twice a day, and Finasteride (Propecia), a pill intended for men only and taken once a day. While these medications mostly helpful in the initial stage of hair and can slow down and in some individuals stop the progression of hair loss. They need to be taken over a long time and their effect will be seen after 6- 9 months of continuous use. On the contrary Fue hair transplant, is the only permanent solution for hair loss.

As baldness progresses, the hair become thinner while the sebaceous gland becomes larger with more secretion. These enlarged glands are only a result of balding, not a cause.

Depending on the number of grafts, the procedure takes anywhere from 4 hours to10 hours. The procedure starts in the morning and completed by evening .You can return home on your own on the same day and no stay is required

In first session we will cover the maximum possible bald area and implant maximum number of graft in that session. Usually It’s a onetime procedure and but in case of advance baldness ,if more number of grafts are required for coverage of large area of baldness then 2 or 3 sessions can be done depending on the grade and severity of baldness.

Most patients who have undergone this procedure say they feel no discomfort or pain. Local anesthesia is administered in both donor and recipient sites to make the area numb

Below is an outline of a hair transplant schedule:

Patient Evaluation

You can share your scalp pictures or visit the clinic for initial assessment. The patient is initially evaluated by the Dr Prashant Yadav with regards to his current hair loss condition, degree of baldness, donor condition and general medical examination. Then after examination he decides whether the patient is a good hair transplant candidate or not.  If the patient is a good candidate, he will then be evaluated as to his treatment options, the number of grafts he requires and the number of sessions.

Patient Preparation

The patient should generally be healthy prior to undergoing a hair transplant procedure. If the patient has any underlying medical illness, he can still undergo the procedure after careful evaluation and review of medications. Hemogram , BT ,CT PT, HIV HBSAG these are the test to be done prior to undergoing hair transplant surgery. Your procedure can be booked in advance by paying advance deposit.

Procedure day

Hair Transplantation is done as an outpatient procedure. It is a relatively safe procedure since this only involves the skin. The patient will be under ‘’twilight’’ and local anesthetic during the procedure therefore pain will be minimal. The patient is allowed and encouraged to take breaks, walk, stretch, and eat in between the procedure. The length of surgery time ( 5 -10 hrs )will depend on the number of grafts to be done. After the procedure, the patient will be sent home and asked to come back the following day.

Post Op Shampoo

The patient is asked to come back the following day after procedure for his first post op shampoo. During this time, he will be taught how to shampoo by himself properly daily at home. The grafts and donor area will also be checked at this time to ensure that everything is fine and he can resume the work and can travel safely. After care instruction list and medications prescription will be provided. Remaining follow up after 2 weeks, 3 month, 6 month and 10 months interval either physically or email/skype/whatsapp etc

Transplanted hair is permanent and will stay with the patient all throughout his lifetime as long as the grafts chosen were from the safe donor site. The patients’ own existing hair at the top however which already shows signs of thinning and miniaturization and those which are genetically programmed to go will still be lost in time. The goal of hair transplantation is to restore lost hair and with medications, maintain or slow down further loss of existing hair.

You can shampoo after the procedure gently and not putting directly under the shower and just rinse with soft hands .We advice you to wear a cap and protect new hair from direct exposure to sunlight.

Hair transplant is considered to be a minimal invasive procedure. There are no side effects or complications and its completely safe procedure done worldwide successfully.

Fue technique is scarless and painless technique so there wont be any scar even in the donor site . We are using planters which are made specifically for hair transplantation for putting new hairs and they don’t leave any scar on the scalp in area of new planted hairs

The amount of grafts needed ultimately depends on

• degree of hair loss,
• hairline desired,
• donor density,
• desired density.
• Future hair loss

The density on the back of the scalp from where the grafts are taken out is very high. The grafts are randomly taken out so even after taking the grafts the donor area looks normal..

The hair transplant is a permanent process because donor area is resistant to baldness; the transplanted will continue to grow like your natural hair without any maintenance. You can combed, washed, oiled and cut/trim/shave like your normal hair

In patient who have limited donor hair , the beard ,chest and legs can be used for transplant

The transplanted hairs will start growing immediately after the procedure, but for full grown length results it will take around 6 to 9 months.

Hair transplant is done in 2 basic ways i.e.

• Strip technique or FUT: Surgical technique involves harvesting a strip of skin from your backside of head. The hair are then separated and implanted on the bald area. This involves cutting your scalp skin, then stitching it. This technique is therefore painful, gives a long linear scar.
• Follicular Unit extraction technique. Involves removal of one follicular unit by one unit without cutting the skin.

We do the transplant by Max FUE Technique which is the most advanced version of FUE Technique.

It the most advanced version of FUE technique, designed and refined by Dr. Prashant Yadav himself. This technique is entirely non-surgical, without any cuts, stitch less, scarless, painless, bloodless and with no downtime or side-effects.
