Hair Transplant in Delhi

The local anaesthetic injections at the start are the uncomfortable part. After that the treated areas are numb, though you may feel pressure or pulling. Soreness, tightness or swelling for a few days afterwards is common and is managed with the medication prescribed for you.

It depends on the number of grafts. A small hairline session may take a few hours; a large session can take most of the day, with breaks for meals. It is a day case, so you go home the same evening, ideally with someone to accompany you.

Grafts are taken from the back and sides of the scalp, where hair generally resists the hormonal process behind pattern hair loss, and they usually keep that character after the move. The hair around them that was not transplanted can keep thinning with age, so medicines or a later session may be part of a long-term plan. No clinic can promise a particular density.

Grafts are taken the same way in both. In FUE the openings are made first and the grafts placed into them, which is efficient over larger areas such as the crown. In DHI an implanter pen makes the opening and sets the graft in one movement, which gives close control along the hairline but is slower per graft. Many plans use both: see FUE and DHI at the Rohini clinic.

FUT, where a thin strip of scalp is removed and divided into grafts, leaves a linear scar at the back of the head. FUE and DHI are the techniques on record at the Rohini clinic; ask at your consultation whether FUT is offered and whether it would suit you.

Sometimes. Hair loss in women is more often diffuse and can reach the donor area, so hormonal, thyroid, iron and post-partum causes are checked and treated first. Surgery is considered for suitable patterns, such as a high or receding front hairline, traction loss that has stopped, or a stable scar. See hair transplant for women in Rohini.

Common, short-lived effects are swelling of the forehead, soreness, numbness and itching, and small pimples as new hairs come through. Less often there can be infection, bleeding, temporary shedding of existing hair around the grafts (shock loss), cysts, or weaker growth of some grafts. Contact the clinic promptly for bleeding that does not stop after 10–15 minutes of steady pressure, spreading redness or pus, fever, or pain that gets worse after the first few days. Hair transplant side effects and risks covers each one.
