Hair Transplantation | Hair Transplant in Pakistan
In hair transplantation, surgeons restore hair lost due to baldness by taking your own hair from the back of your head and planting it at the front to recreate a youthful hairline. The transplanted hair looks completely natural and grows like normal hair. This procedure takes only a few hours and done under local anesthesia. Additionally, surgeons also perform hair transplants for eyebrows, eyelashes, mustaches, and beards.
If you decide to undergo a hair transplant procedure, the surgeon first cleans and numbs the area where the hair will be implanted. Next, the surgeon uses a fine needle to create tiny slits for the grafts. Meanwhile, the surgeon or their team trims the hair at the back of your head to prepare it for follicle extraction.The surgeon will remove hair roots (hair follicles) one by one from the trimmed part of the back of the head. Once the grafts are prepared, the surgeon carefully places each one into the spaces created at the front of the head.”
Depending on the number of roots you’re getting, the procedure will take about 4 to 6 hours. In a single sitting, around 2000 hair follicles or more can be transplanted. You might need a second session later on if you continue losing your hair or if you want thicker hair.
After a hair transplant, you can return home and resume your daily routine. However, your surgeon will advise you to avoid exercise, strenuous activities, and bending down for about 10 days
