What is Hair Transplant?

Saraswat Hospital- Best Place for Hair Transplant in India

A hair transplant is a popular surgical procedure in which surgeons take hair follicles from the donor area (such as the back or side of the scalp) and transplant the follicles to the recipient area. People who are suffering from hair loss, baldness, or thinning hair due to various reasons can restore their natural hair via hair transplantation. This is a complex surgical procedure, which should be done from certified doctors only. The patient is given local anaesthesia before the treatment. Thus, the hair transplant procedure is nearly painless with only zero to minimal discomfort to the patients. Remember, it is not a one-time treatment; based on the condition of the patient, it may require multiple sessions.

FUE Vs. FUT: Which Hair Transplant Technique Is Ideal for You?

Deciding between two popular hair transplant techniques—FUE and FUT—leads to many questions. A personalised consultation at Saraswat Hospital is the only way to decide the best treatment for you.

FUE Hair Transplant

FUE stands for Follicular Unit Extraction. It is a popular outpatient hair transplant technique in which individual hair follicles are removed from your skin and moved to another part of the body (the recipient area). Surgeons deploy micropunches to extract single follicles, leaving almost no signs of extraction and moving them to the recipient area.

FUE hair transplant in India is considered a safe procedure with the possibility of minor side effects. Infection can occur if unsterile equipment or improper technique is used. We, at Saraswat Hospital, always use new and sterile equipment, and only expert surgeons perform the procedure to ensure the transplant is safe and effective.

Benefits of FUE:

  • Less pain after surgery
  • Fast recovery
  • Does not leave prominent scars
  • Surgeons can use body hair
  • Useful to increase hair density

FUT Hair Transplant

FUT stands for Follicular Unit Transplant, and is a strip procedure for hair transplantation. Here, surgeons remove a linear strip of hair from the donor area of the scalp using high-quality tools. Surgeons then dissect the hair follicles present in the strip under a stereo-microscope and divide them into 1–3 follicle grafts. After that, these grafts are placed into an incision on the recipient area.

Benefits of FUT:

  • If you need to transplant a large number of follicles
  • Quicker operation time
  • Higher survival rate of the follicles

Both techniques are equally efficacious for hair regrowth. Only after your scalp and health are analysed that our surgeons determine whether you need a FUE or FUT hair transplant. However, for both FUE and FUT hair transplants in India, Saraswat Hospital is a reliable destination and offers a great patient satisfaction rate.

How Do We Determine the Type of Hair Transplant for a Patient?

Saraswat Hospital does not entertain one-size-fits-all solutions for all patients. Once you book an appointment, our team will collect your medical information. During your face-to-face visit, we will perform a scalp and hair analysis to determine which hair transplant technique will be most suitable for you.

We always check the below-mentioned factors before deciding the hair transplant type:

  • Condition of the scalp; whether it is oily or dry
  • Dandruff, lesions, scaliness, or damaged hair
  • Type of hair loss: unpatterned, uniform, or patchiness
  • Infection, scald or wound, etc
  • Decreasing rate of overall body hair (especially from the eyebrow)
  • The percentage of hair that is likely to fall

Our team also checks the density of hair in various areas of the scalp and determines the percentage of hair present in the vellus, intermediate, and terminal stages. Using advanced technologies, we can also predict the amount of hair that is sure to fall and the expected density of hair after the hair transplant surgery.

We check all of these factors and keep photographic records for further consultation and treatment. For foolproof analysis, we prefer to use computerized, software-based trichoscopy analysis. It also helps us understand the condition of the available donor area and the percentage of hair follicles that we can extract to ensure the desired result. Being one of the best hair transplant clinics in India, we always use safe and effective methods and let patients enjoy the best hair transplant in India.

How Do Our Surgeons Define an Ideal Hairline for a Patient?

The hairline is basically the natural-looking front edge of the hair that frames the face. The hairline may vary from person to person. We determine the hairline during the consultation phase by considering various critical factors. We consider the age of the patient, gender, and facial structure to draw the desired hairline. We try to create a natural-looking hairline that complements the overall appearance.

Procedure: What Will Happen to You During the Hair Transplant?

The hair transplant procedure starts by cleaning your scalp, and then the surgeon will apply a numbing gel or local anaesthesia to the treatment area.

For FUT

  • Our internationally-certified surgeons will use a scalpel to remove a strip of scalp from the back of the head. Typically, the incision will be several inches long.
  • After that, the surgeon will close the donor area with stitches.
  • In the next step, the surgeon will use the magnifying lens and sharp surgical knife to separate the removed portion/strip. After implantation, these sections will help the patient achieve natural-looking hair growth.

For FUE

  • The hair follicles will be extracted directly from the back of the scalp using the micropunching post-transplant technique.
  • The surgeon will make tiny holes using a sterile needle on the recipient area of the scalp and then gently place hairs in these holes.
  • After the treatment, the gauze, graft, or bandages will cover your scalp for a few days.

Each hair transplant session may require four hours or more, depending on the complexity of the procedure. A patient may require two to three sessions to get the desired density and natural-looking hair.

Post-transplant Care

After the treatment, you may experience some scalp soreness, which will go away in one to two days. To relieve any symptoms or discomfort post treatment, we prescribe medication to alleviate pain, antibiotics to reduce infection risks, and anti-inflammatory medications to reduce swelling. Most people can resume their work within days after the transplantation surgery. Typically, the transplanted hair will fall out in 2 to 3 weeks after the procedure while making way for new hair growth. In 3 to 6 months, most people notice new hair growth.

Things to do after hair transplant surgery

Complications Related to Hair Transplant Surgery

Every surgical procedure comes with minor side effects, and they go away within a few days or weeks. Hair transplant side effects may include:

  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • Scalp swelling
  • Bruising around the eyes
  • A crust on the donor and recipient area
  • Itching
  • Lack of sensation or numbness
  • Inflammation of the hair follicles
  • Shock loss
  • Unnatural-looking tufts of hair

Side effects like infection, swelling, itching, etc. can be easily avoided using expert techniques. Our surgeons at Saraswat Hospital always use sterile equipment to prevent infections. All clinical staff follow pre-operative instructions and guide the patient accordingly. Our team will inform the patient about the pre- and post-operative procedures and manage discomfort with the right medication.

However, it is also important to be realistic about the results and clearly understand the potential risks and side effects before undergoing the transplantation procedure. After a hair transplantation session, patients must avoid sunlight, smoking, and alcohol consumption during the healing process to reduce the risk of complications.

Factors That Determine the Cost of Hair Transplant Surgery

Cost is always an important factor for a person planning to undergo a hair transplant surgery. The cost of the best hair transplant in India depends on a lot of factors. For example, the expertise of the operating surgeon, the experience of the clinical staff, the quality of medical supplies, etc. Apart from these, there are some other factors that we analyse using trichoscopy to determine the cost. Here, we can share an approximate cost estimate. We can share the accurate cost after analysing your scalp condition and pattern of hair loss.

A few factors alter the cost of hair transplants in India, including:

  • Area to be treated
  • Texture and characteristics of hair
  • Type of scalp
  • TDI (Torso Donor Index)

FAQ

  • What Are the Causes of Hair Loss?

Excessive hair loss in both men and women is caused by a variety of factors. Some of the most common factors are heredity, hormonal changes, medical conditions, radiation therapy, a hectic lifestyle, a poor digestive system, improper use of chemical treatments, androgenic alopecia, and so on. If hair regrowth is not possible in any other way, a hair transplant in India is an effective and long-term solution for baldness and thinning hair.

  • How Effective Is Hair Transplant Surgery?

Expert surgeons can successfully move hair follicles from the donor area to the recipient area. The procedure is quite similar to other transplant surgeries. The success rate of a hair transplant depends on a variety of factors. The blood flow to the scalp should be constant, as it helps grow the transplanted hair. This way, new hair grows naturally and blends with existing and surrounding hair. The transplanted hair is genetically strong and keeps growing. After the desired growth, you can wash, style, and comb your hair normally.

At Saraswat Hospital, one of the best places for hair transplants in India, each patient gets personalised treatment and aftercare guidance.

You should avoid strenuous exercise that produces sweat for at least one week. A few patients feel numbness and swelling. Medication will help to cure these side effects in a few days.
