Am I a good candidate for Hair Transplant?
Direct Hair Implantation is a minimally invasive procedure suitable for male and female patients of all ages and with minimal contraindications.
However, in the following cases, hair transplantation is not indicated:
- Insufficient donor area
- Infection in the donor or recipient area
- Hypertension
- Hyperparathyroidism
Can I receive grafts from another person?
If the hair from the back and the sides of your head is not sufficient to cover the bald area, hair from the beard or other parts of the body can be used.
Grafts from another person cannot be used.
Is any medication required?
No long-term medication is required as the implanted hair do not fall out.
After the hair transplant, the patient is given antibiotics for three days and in some cases, cortisone and painkillers for a few days are recommended.
In rare cases where the patient experiences mild symptoms such as headache, swelling, itching or sensitivity, the doctor will prescribe appropriate medication.
When can I return to work?
Most patients are able to return to work and other daily activities within a couple of days of the procedure. You are able to travel the next day of the procedure, but it is recommened to avoid light exercises for a week and intense workout for 10 days.
