10 Best Hair Transplant Surgeons in Borivali West, Mumbai - Near Me 2023

Hair transplant does give good results. The hair follicles that are transplanted are genetically-resistant against baldness so they will continue to grow over your lifetime. The transplanted hair maintains its own characteristics; color, texture, growth rate, and curl, after transplantation and re-growth. 

Within a month of hair transplant surgery, the transplanted hair will fall off. It is nothing to be worried about as this makes way for new hair growth. You will see the final result in about 9 to 12 months.

Sometimes hair transplant surgeries do fail. The reason for it can be post-operative infection of the donor site or the transplanted hair follicles, poor patient aftercare or inexperienced hair transplant surgeon.

You may experience a little pain as it is a surgical procedure. However before the procedure, local anesthesia will be given to you, which may give a pricking sensation. But once the skin is anesthetized there will be no pain.

Mostly hair transplant charges are calculated on per graft basis by majority of the clinics. Other factors that influence the cost are total number of grafts needed, the type of hair transplant you opt for FUE or FUT, texture of the hair, numbers of sessions required and the experience of the surgeon.

FUT is also known as strip method. In this, a strip of tissue with hair is removed from the backside of the scalp (donor area) which is dissected into individual follicular units. These follicular units are then transplanted on to the bald area (recipient area) making micro-incisions using micro needles.
In FUE, the surgeon extracts individual follicular units with a specially designed instrument and implants them into the bald area (recipient area). 

Hair transplant options are available for people of all sexes, but following factors make a difference:

• Balding pattern: is different for females and males, and presents a challenge in terms of what objective to fulfil (whether to re-frame face or to bring volume to hair).
• Difference in stability of donor sites: In males, hair follicles of donor regions don’t get killed by dihydrotestosterone (DHT), but in females they shed off right after they are transplanted.
• Hormone: For FTM trans individuals as they can experience balding (additionally, all trans individuals will face problem with regards to hairline restructuring, as men and women have different hairlines).

The operation broadly lasts for 2 to 9 hours which would be split into multiple days, which means a day or two, and same in turn would depend on following factors:

• Number of grafts.
• Technique opted for.
