Hair Transplant Process

1. Assessment and Planning:

- *Initial Consultation:* Causes of hair loss, the patient's health status, and expectations are assessed.
- *Planning:* The area for transplantation and hair density are determined.

2. Preparation Stage:

*Hair Cutting:* Hair is trimmed to ensure the transplant area is clean and accessible.
*Anesthesia:* Local anesthesia is administered to numb the transplant area.

3. Collection of Hair Follicles:

*FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Method:* Hair follicles are individually harvested.
*FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) Method:* A strip of scalp is removed and follicles are separated.

4. Hair Transplantation:

*Channel Opening (FUT/FUE):* Small incisions or holes are made in the transplant area.
*Follicle Placement (FUT/FUE):* Harvested hair follicles are placed into these incisions.
*Direct Implantation (DHI):* Each follicle is directly implanted into the scalp using the DHI pen.

5. Healing Process:

*Immediately After:* The transplanted area is bandaged, and rest is recommended for the patient.
*First Few Days:* Mild swelling and discomfort may occur.

Post-Hair Transplant Care

1. First 24 Hours:

*Rest:* Avoiding physical activity and keeping the head elevated is advised.

2. First Week:

*Swelling and Pain Management:* Managed with medications and cold compresses.

3. First Month:

*Sun Protection:* Protecting the transplant area from the sun is important.

4. Long-Term Care:

*Hair Care Products:* Use products suitable for your hair type.
*Healthy Lifestyle:* Regular nutrition and avoiding stress are vital for hair health.
