“To determine suitability for a hair transplant, we consider age, hair loss pattern, and overall health. During the initial consultation, we conduct a thorough examination, review medical history, and assess the donor area. The procedure involves extracting hair follicles from the donor area and implanting them into balding areas using the FUE method. After surgery, we provide care instructions and medications. Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days. New hair growth typically begins within a few months, with full results visible in about a year”, shares Dr Harikiran.

He adds, “Patients are reassured by the use of local anesthesia for minimal discomfort during the procedure. Concerns about unnatural-looking results are addressed with before-and-after photos. Scarring with the FUE method is minimal, and recovery time is typically a few days for normal activities and a few weeks for full recovery. We offer treatments to address hair loss and promote regrowth, including PRP therapy, mesotherapy, low-level laser therapy (LLLT), specialized hair care products, and personalized treatment plans, suitable for both early-stage and non-ideal candidates for hair transplant surgery.
