What is Hair Transplant Surgery?
Hair transplant surgery is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure used to restore hair in individuals experiencing baldness or significant hair thinning. It works by relocating healthy hair follicles—typically from the back or sides of the scalp (donor area)—to bald or thinning regions (recipient area). This surgery is especially effective for treating male and female pattern baldness, various types of alopecia, and hair loss from trauma or scarring.
There are three main surgical techniques:
- Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) – Also known as the strip method; involves excising a strip of scalp to harvest hair grafts. It may leave a linear scar but is cost-effective for larger areas.
- Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) – Individual follicles are extracted directly from the donor site, leaving minimal or no visible scarring. Offers faster recovery.
- Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) – The most advanced method; uses a specialized tool to implant follicles directly without creating incisions beforehand. Offers precise placement and higher density.
The procedure duration ranges from 4 to 8 hours, depending on the number of grafts. Most patients are discharged the same day, and recovery takes 2–4 weeks, with full hair regrowth visible after 10–18 months. Some patients may need multiple sessions for optimal results.
