Hair Loss Treatment
Hair loss is a common concern affecting millions worldwide, impacting self-esteem and quality of life. While various treatments offer temporary solutions, hair transplantation stands out as a long-lasting remedy, restoring not just hair but confidence and vitality. Understanding Hair Transplantation: Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure that involves relocating hair follicles from donor areas—typically the back or sides of the scalp—to balding or thinning areas. These follicles are harvested using two primary techniques: Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). FUT involves removing a strip of scalp tissue containing hair follicles, while FUE involves extracting individual follicular units directly from the donor site.
The Transplant Process: The hair transplant process begins with a consultation, during which the surgeon assesses the patient’s hair loss pattern, donor hair availability, and aesthetic goals. Once deemed suitable, the patient undergoes the transplant procedure, typically performed under local anesthesia to ensure comfort.
For FUT, the surgeon carefully removes the donor strip and closes the incision with sutures. The strip is then dissected into individual follicular units for transplantation. In contrast, FUE involves the extraction of follicular units using a specialized punch tool, leaving tiny, nearly invisible scars. The surgeon meticulously creates recipient sites in the balding or thinning areas, considering factors such as hairline design, natural hair direction, and density. The harvested follicular units are then transplanted into these sites, ensuring precision and aesthetic harmony.
Benefits of Hair Transplantation: Hair transplantation offers numerous benefits beyond hair restoration:
- Natural-Looking Results: By transplanting one’s natural hair follicles, the results of a hair transplant appear seamless and indistinguishable from surrounding hair, providing a natural-looking appearance.
- Long Term Solution: Unlike temporary hair loss treatments, hair transplantation offers a long term solution, as transplanted hair follicles are resistant to the effects of DHT (dihydrotestosterone), the hormone responsible for male pattern baldness.
- Improved Confidence: Restoring a full head of hair can significantly boost self-confidence and improve quality of life and appearance.
- Minimal Downtime: With advancements in surgical techniques and technology, modern hair transplant procedures entail minimal downtime, allowing patients to resume normal activities shortly after treatment.

Q. How does a hair transplant work? Are the transplanted hair permanent?
A. During a hair transplant, hair follicles are typically harvested from the back or sides of the scalp, where hair is usually thicker and less prone to balding. These follicles are then implanted into the balding or thinning areas of the scalp using various techniques, such as follicular unit transplantation (FUT) or follicular unit extraction (FUE). Usually the hair grafts are taken from DHT resistant areas and hence they are considered immune to action of DHT or hairloss causing hormone.
