Your Hair Transplant Journey

You share clear photos of your hairline, top, crown and donor area on WhatsApp, along with your age, how long you have been losing hair, and any hair-loss medication you take.

Your photos and history are reviewed by a physician — not a salesperson. You receive an honest opinion on your hair-loss pattern, your donor supply, a realistic graft range and the technique that suits you.

If a transplant is not the right step for you, or medical treatment should come first, we tell you. It is better to lose a booking than to waste grafts you cannot spare.

If you are a good candidate, you receive a clear, written all-inclusive quote setting out exactly what is — and is not — included, with the payment and cancellation terms stated plainly.

You choose your dates and share your flight details. Your coordinator confirms your schedule around them.

Your accommodation and airport transfers are arranged and confirmed before you travel — not sorted out on arrival.

You receive clear guidance on what to do in the days before surgery — for example around alcohol, blood-thinning medication and smoking — and what to bring with you.

Your English-speaking coordinator is reachable throughout. Anything you are unsure about — the physician, the team, the plan, the travel — is answered before you fly.

A driver meets you at the airport and takes you to your hotel. Your coordinator’s contact number is with you the whole time, in case anything about your flight changes.

You check in, rest, and receive any final instructions for the morning — including guidance on food before your procedure.

Before anything is touched, your specialist team examines your scalp, assesses your donor supply and designs your hairline with you — at an age-appropriate height that will still suit you in twenty years. This step matters as much as the surgery itself.

Reference photos are taken, the donor area is prepared, and — depending on your technique — your hair may be trimmed. (DHI can often be done without shaving the recipient area.)

The scalp is numbed with local anaesthetic. The procedure itself should not hurt; the only real discomfort is the initial injections.

Follicular units are removed one by one from the donor area, recipient sites are created at the correct angle and direction, and grafts are placed — single-hair units at the hairline for a soft edge, denser units behind for coverage.

Who performs each of these steps is set out on Who does your hair transplant?

The day includes rest and meals; a full session typically runs several hours. You return to your hotel the same evening with written aftercare instructions and support for your first night.

Your scalp is reviewed, the first gentle wash is carried out, and you are shown exactly how to wash and care for the area yourself.

Your medications and aftercare routine are explained clearly, and you leave with written instructions and a way to reach the team once you are home.

You travel home with simple guidance for the journey.

Small crusts form and flake away by around day ten to fourteen. You send photos on the agreed days and your recovery is checked against where it should be.

The transplanted hairs shed — this “shock loss” is expected, not a setback. The follicle survives beneath the skin and regrows.

New growth begins around month three to four, thickens by six to nine months, and reaches its final density at twelve to eighteen months. Structured check-ins continue across the year.
