What is Hair Transplantation?
Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure in which hair follicles are moved from a healthy part of your scalp (the donor area) to an area with thinning or no hair (the recipient area). The transplanted follicles grow naturally, making the results look like your own hair. Over time, these transplanted hairs continue to grow and can be styled just like the rest of your hair.
Why Choose Hair Transplantation?
- Permanent Results: Unlike temporary treatments such as medications or hairpieces, a hair transplant offers a permanent solution. Once the hair follicles are transplanted, they continue to grow naturally for a lifetime.
- Natural-Looking Hair: Our techniques ensure that the newly transplanted hair blends seamlessly with the rest of your natural hair, creating a fuller, more youthful appearance.
- Minimal Scarring: Thanks to advanced techniques like FUE (Follicular Unit Excision), there are no visible scars. Small dot like marks will be hidden by the remaining hairs in the donor area.
- Increased Confidence: Full, natural hair can make a dramatic difference in how you feel about yourself. Many of our patients report a significant boost in their self-esteem and a renewed sense of confidence.
- Less Downtime: Hair transplantation is a minimally invasive technique where one can resume their activities within 3 days after the procedure. It does not have prolonged bed rest or immobility
Hair Transplant Techniques We Offer
Certainly! Below is a refined version of your content with the added drop-down functionality described for the FUE technique:
We Offer a Range of Advanced Hair Transplant Methods to Suit Your Unique Needs:
- Traditional Follicular Unit Excision (FUE)
FUE is a time-tested technique where individual hair follicles are extracted from the donor area using tiny punches. These follicles, typically arranged in groups of 2 or 3 (known as grafts), are carefully cleaned, held in a special solution, and then implanted into the recipient area using forceps or needles. Larger needles are used to create slits or channels into which the grafts are placed.
Benefits:
- No visible linear scar, as no incision is made.
- Quicker recovery and minimal discomfort.
- Natural and seamless results.
- Sapphire FUE
Sapphire FUE is a more refined, modern technique that uses specialized sapphire blades to create precise slits in the recipient area. This allows for better control over the direction, angle, and density of the hair follicles, resulting in high-density, natural-looking hair. The instruments used are imported and highly refined, ensuring optimal graft survival—up to 85-90%.
Bio-Sapphire FUE
Bio-Sapphire FUE is the most advanced hair restoration technique, designed for precision, density, and rapid recovery. Each step of the process is optimized for minimal discomfort and maximum effectiveness.
Key Features:
- Painless Anaesthesia: Topical anaesthesia cream, vibration therapy, and calming music ensure patient comfort.
- Slit Making: Sapphire blades create precise slits for optimal graft placement, ensuring high density with minimal bleeding.
- Graft Harvesting: Imported serrated punches minimize damage, reducing graft wastage and transection.
- Graft Holding: Grafts are preserved in a growth factor-enriched medium, improving survival rates and accelerating growth while minimizing shedding.
- Implantation: The “no root touch” and double forceps method ensure high density and natural-looking results.
Benefits:
- Up to 95% graft survival rate.
- Faster, denser hair growth with minimal shedding.
Direct Hair Implantation (DHI)
DHI is an advanced method where hair follicles are implanted directly into the recipient area using specialized tools (Choi or KEEP implanters) without pre-made slits.
Benefits:
- Highly precise implantation for natural-looking results.
- Minimal “out of body” time for grafts.
- Minimal or no bleeding.
- Faster results than other methods.
Aesthetic Hair Integration (AHI)
Developed by Dr. Shrenik after extensive research, AHI seamlessly integrates new grafts with existing hair without altering the person’s natural aesthetics.
Key Features:
- Extraction: High-quality grafts are carefully harvested using Devroye’s punches to prevent damage and wastage.
- Graft Preservation: Grafts are stored in HypothermosolR solution to maintain natural conditions.
- Slit Making: Sapphire blades ensure precise channels without harming existing hair.
- Implantation: The “no root touch” technique is combined with magnifiers (Essilor Loupes) for maximum precision and density.
- Natural Results: The newly implanted grafts blend seamlessly, making it almost impossible to detect a transplant.

Hair transplants can benefit both men and women experiencing hair loss. You may be an ideal candidate if:
- You have sufficient donor hair (from the back or sides of your scalp).
- Your hair loss has stabilized, and you’re seeking a permanent solution.
- You’re in good general health and do not have any medical conditions that could interfere with the healing process.
- You have realistic expectations about the results.
The Hair Transplant Process: Step by Step
- Initial Consultation: During your consultation, our doctors will assess your scalp using trichoscope, degree, or grade of hair loss will be determined, and will suggest a plan depending upon your goals and expectations. Hairline will be designed and discussed with you.Routine lab tests will be done if you are ready to go ahead for the procedure. Once the reports are obtained and if everything is normal, a date will be reserved by paying booking fee.
- Preparation: On the day of the procedure, there will be reassessment of the scalp. There will we’ll prepare your scalp by cleaning it and administering local anesthesia to ensure you’re comfortable during the treatment.
- Procedure: Depending on the chosen technique, the procedure may last anywhere from a few hours to a full day. We carefully extract and implant the hair follicles with precision for natural results.
- Aftercare and Recovery: After the procedure, we’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to normal activities in about 5-7 days.
- Follow-Up Care: We’ll schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress, ensuring that your hair grows smoothly. Full results can typically be seen within 6 to 12 months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the hair transplant procedure painful?
Thanks to local anesthesia, the procedure itself is virtually painless. Afterward, you may experience mild swelling or tenderness, but these symptoms are temporary and manageable.
How soon will I see results?
Hair growth from a transplant typically begins within 3 to 4 months, with noticeable results appearing after about 6-12 months. Full results are generally visible within a year.
Will the transplanted hair last?
Yes, once the hair follicles are transplanted, they are resistant to the hormone that causes hair loss (DHT), so the results are permanent.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments depends on the extent of your hair loss.
