Consultation
The first step in a hair transplant procedure is a mandatory consultation with a specialist to discuss your hair loss, your health, and the results you are looking to achieve. During your consultation, your scalp will be assessed, and you will be provided with a treatment plan. We recommend preparing questions and concerns to be answered during your consultation.
The Day of Your Procedure
Hair loss procedures take place early morning. Upon arrival, the surgical team will prepare you for surgery. The surgeon will disinfect your scalp and apply lidocaine injections to numb the area that will be harvested. We will then extract the hair follicles and prepare them for implantation. The surgeon will then disinfect and numb the receiving area of your scalp and implant the grafts.
Post-Transplant Aftercare
We recommend taking a few days after surgery to recover. Use sterile saline sprays to treat your scalp. It is typical for your scalp to scab and appears red during this time, or for forehead swelling to occur. Take pain medication as needed and avoid hats, scarves, harsh shampoos, exercising, tanning, or swimming during your recovery.
What You Can Expect
Around one-month post-transplant, your implanted hairs will begin to fall out. This is entirely normal. The regrowth of your new transplanted hair will start its permanent regrowth by the third or fourth month. The process can be tedious, but it is well worth it!
How Many Grafts You Will Need
The number of grafts a patient may need varies for every individual case. The number of grafts will depend on the condition of your scalp and the level of hair loss you are experiencing. Your expectations for your results will also determine how many grafts may need to be used.
The Benefits of Advanced Hair Restoration
Hair transplant procedures offer plenty of benefits, both physically and emotionally. You will finally have thicker, more luxurious hair that gives you confidence and makes you feel great about yourself. It’s cost-effective, as you pay for your procedure and no longer have to worry about spending money on products to increase growth or hide hair loss.
Hair Transplant Cost
Hair transplants are more costly than other hair loss products; however, they are a permanent solution that may save you money long-term, as they restore your hair and eliminate the need for other hair loss solutions. The exact cost varies depending on the extent of the procedure. A consultation with our friendly specialists at Advanced Hair & Skin Surgery will give you an estimate for your treatment.

The cost encompasses your consultation with the surgeon and our team of caring and attentive specialists, your prescriptions for any medications or topical treatments, your care and customer support leading up to your treatment and post-procedure, and any additional follow-ups and examinations.
