How is Hair Transplant Surgery Performed on Women?

The entire process of female hair restoration is detail-oriented and carried out in several steps. Here’s a step-by-step overview of the hair transplant process for women:

Step 1: Consultation and Initial Assessment

We will assess your hair loss pattern, medical history, and expectations, and guide you about the suitable techniques.

Step 2: Pre-Procedure Preparation

A thorough medical evaluation may be conducted to ensure you’re healthy enough for the surgery.

Step 3: Hair Restoration Procedure

  1. Local Anesthesia: On the day of the procedure, local anesthesia is administered to numb the scalp.
  2. Hair Follicle Extraction: Using a micro-punch tool (for FUE) or a Choi implanter pen (for DHI), individual hair follicles are carefully extracted from the donor area.
  3. Shaving: To have better access and good visibility, surgeons can also opt for shaving some of your hair from the donor and/or recipient site (about 1-2 mm).
  4. Graft Preparation: The extracted follicles are then sorted and prepared for implantation.

Step 4: Recipient Area Preparation

The recipient area is prepared by cleaning and may include creating tiny incisions or micro-channels ranging from 0.6-1.2 mm for the new follicles, depending on the implant technique used.

Step 5: Implantation of Hair Follicles

The extracted hair follicles are carefully implanted into the recipient sites by expert Vascular and Interventional Radiologists. DHI is done using the implant pen, allowing for direct, precise implants without pre-made incisions.

Step 6: Post-Procedure Care

After the completion of the procedure, the donor and recipient sites are both cleaned. Your scalp may be bandaged if needed to avoid infection.

What Post-Operative Care Usually Advised?

We will provide you with specific care instructions. Your post women hair transplant care includes:

  • Avoid direct sunlight for at least 7 days and wear a protective head covering when outside.
