Hair transplant surgery is a very low risk procedure. Minor swelling and in-grown hairs are the most common side-effects, although not all patients experience these symptoms. Swelling is normal and usually occurs 4 days after surgery and subsides completely by the 10th day, in-grown hairs are less common but easily treatable.

Hair transplantation is a process where donor hair from the back and sides of the scalp is surgically removed and transplanted to the thinning areas of the scalp. The primary reason that so many individuals don't take action to do something about their hair loss is the fear that doing something may be worse than just being bald. There are an estimated 40 million men, and 20 million women with hair loss in the United States alone.

Once all hair micro- and mini-grafts have healed after hair replacement surgery, all hair care can resume as normal. It varies, but initially, most hair replacement surgeons will advise subjects NOT to shampoo or clean their hair for approximately five days after having hair transplants. This gives the transplanted grafts time to both take root and heal.

The side effect we see most, although not often is folliculitis. This occurs after a transplant begins to grow and presents itself as ingrown hairs. It is accompanied by redness and bumps that resemble pimples. Occassionally we also get reports of nausea from pain medication and swelling around the forehead region.

Immediately following surgery a patient’s recipient area is typically pink with scabs forming around the micro incisions. These hundreds of tiny incisions will heal rapidly within a week to ten days. During the first few days after the surgery a person’s hair transplants will be noticeable if there is no previous hair to mask these temporary scabs. However, most patients feel comfortable being in public without wearing a hat within 5 to 7 days following surgery.

Yes. Today's highly trained and up-to-date surgeons, using a combination of artistry and technology, can recreate hairlines and crown coverage in a manner that truly defies detection. Progressing beyond the old style 'plug-type' transplants has been possible using advanced techniques which allow the transplantation of large numbers of small grafts. An appreciation for the natural shape and patterns of hair growth allows surgeons to create wavy, randomized hairlines that look natural.

If you are starting to thin, balding, or completely bald, you are a candidate for hair transplant surgery. Those who have been losing hair for a few years at a moderate to dramatic rate should consider hair transplant, as it is the only permanent solution to hair loss.

Yes. At your request, we can provide you with contact information of past patients who are willing to share their experience.

your initial free consultation, HTC's trained staff will carefully evaluate your present hair pattern to determine the best possible design for your new grafts. Not everyone is a hair transplant candidate, so if we feel a hair transplant is not in your best interest, we will tell you so! The procedure will be completely explained and you will know in advance all costs involved. In most cases, the hair implantation procedure takes only a few hours.

Not everyone is a candidate for hair transplant surgery. Men with normal male pattern hair loss (the cause of hair loss in 95 percent of men) make good candidates if they have realistic goals and expectations. Men with extreme hair loss and unrealistic goals might be better off with a hair system or toupee. Some, but not all women can be candidates for hair transplants as they have special circumstances and considerations to take into account.

Local anaesthetic is used to numb the area as with any minor surgery. It is your choice to have the procedure carried out under intravenous sedation or not. Narcotic drugs are never used. Medication for discomfort may be required.

Provided there is enough donor hair at the back of your head, the procedure is suitable for you. Very few, although some people, have limited donor hair, and even then there are alternative methods that can provide hair from other parts of the body. Good general health is necessary of course.

Although hair replacement surgery is most commonly used to treat male pattern baldness, hair transplant procedures have been performed with excellent results in the treatment of hair loss in women. Because most women tend to wear and style their hair longer than men, donor areas (i.e., the back of the head) are generally more plentiful in women, giving cosmetic surgeons more options to control general hair loss.

There are few risks associated with hair transplant surgery. Though rare and easily avoidable by following post-operative instructions, infection can occur and will require treatment with antibiotics. Scars are inevitable with any surgical procedure, however the scars resulting from hair transplant surgery are virtually invisible and easily concealed by the hair.

All transplants are performed in a confidential, relaxed atmosphere, and the surgical team generally only performs one surgery a day to ensure a non-rushed quality outcome to this meticulous procedure. All of the members on our transplant team are licensed professionals (Board-Certified surgeon, RNs and LPNs). KingsHead prides itself on this high level of professionalism.

You may have heard that the process is very painful. But with the proper technique in the application of anesthesia, it does not have to be a painful process at all. It all depends on how the surgeon applies the anesthesia, and our office uses the least painful process available for the comfort of our patients. For a hair transplantation process, every surgeon uses either a nerve blocking process or a local anesthesia (general anesthesia is never used in this case).

A When you visit the Cellite Clinic, you will have a personal consultation with Dr Judodihardjo. At that time he will evaluate the nature and extent of your baldness pattern, the potential of your remaining hair to yield healthy donor grafts and the likelihood of future hair loss. You can be assured that you will obtain an honest opinion here. If we feel you are a poor candidate (perhaps too young, have too much existing hair or even too bald) you will be told outright.

There will be a thin scar where the donor hair is removed. However, the remaining hair on the back of your head covers it.

Most transplants are paid for by private health insurance, Medicare or Medicaid programs. Patients can get detailed information from their physicians or health insurers.

Every individual has a unique combination of hair loss and existing hair type so it is impossible to say that everyone will need such and such a number of grafts and this many sessions, because it varies. For example, a patient who has a medium balding area (type 5) but very fine hair may need just as many grafts transplanted as someone who has a larger balding area (type 6) but has thick, course hair.

Some women who have a BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 mutation elect to have their breast and/or ovaries removed surgically, in an effort to reduce their risk for developing breast and/or ovarian cancer. Recent data suggest that removal of the breast and ovaries may reduce the risk of cancer in these organs by 90%1. However, even with surgical removal of the organs, a risk of cancer remains.
