What to Expect During and After a Hair Transplant Procedure

Hair transplant is a surgical procedure where hair follicles are removed from one part of the body (typically the back of the head) and transplanted to an area of the scalp that is bald or thinning. Here is what you can expect during and after a hair transplant procedure:

During the Procedure:

1. Local Anesthesia: Before the procedure, you will be given a local anesthetic to numb the scalp so that you do not feel any pain or discomfort during the surgery.

2. Donor Hair Removal: The surgeon will remove hair follicles from the donor area of the scalp using a special tool or a scalpel.

3. Graft Preparation: The extracted hair follicles will be prepared for transplantation by cleaning and trimming them to the appropriate size.

4. Transplantation: The surgeon will make small incisions in the bald or thinning area of the scalp and carefully place the prepared hair follicles into them.

After the Procedure:

1. Pain and Discomfort: You may experience some pain and discomfort in the scalp for a few days after the procedure. Your doctor may prescribe pain medication to help manage this.

2. Swelling: Swelling in the scalp is common and may last for a few days. Your doctor may recommend using cold compresses to reduce the swelling.

3. Scabbing and Crusting: The transplanted area may develop scabs and crusts in the days following the procedure. These should not be picked or scratched, as doing so may cause damage to the new hair follicles.

4. Hair Growth: The transplanted hair follicles will begin to grow new hair in 2-4 months. It can take up to a year for the full results to become visible.

5. Follow-up Appointments: Your doctor will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure that the transplanted hair is growing properly.

It is important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully after the procedure to ensure the best possible results.
