Our most popular hair transplant technique at The Growth Clinic is Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), which involves removing individual hair follicles from the back of the head.
Our gentle numbing techniques ensure that you are comfortable throughout the procedure. When the area is numb, we use a small specialised device to carefully remove individual grafts. Once the grafts are removed they are expertly trimmed and prepared. Finally, we create precise micro-incisions in the target area and then place the grafts.
Treatment Process
1
Consultation
You'll attend a consultation in advance of your procedure. After listening carefully to your needs, your surgeon will collaborate with you to create a personalised treatment plan.
2
Procedure
During your procedure (typically 6-10 hours), our team will ensure that you're relaxed and comfortable. Afterwards, we'll take time to ensure that you're comfortable with the next steps.
3
Recovery
This short period focuses on ensuring that your skin fully heals. Our team will help you follow simple steps, check in regularly, and answer any questions.
4
Check-up
After 12 months, we'll invite you to attend a check-up at our clinic. Should you require ongoing support we will be happy to help.
Is FUE for me?
Hair loss type: FUE is suitable for most types of hair loss.
Level of comfort: Before your procedure, we'll ensure that you are relaxed and comfortable. We will then carefully apply local anaesthetic to the target area to induce numbness.
Scaring: FUE leaves micro dot like scars along the back of your head. However, these typically aren't visible if your hair is worn above grades 1-2.
Recovery: The back of your head will begin to improve after 3 days and most other visible signs will have disappeared after 2-3 weeks.
Regrowth: You can expect initial hair regrowth after 6 months and final results after 12-18 months.
Age: The Growth Clinic offers hair transplant surgery to patients who are aged 28 and above. If you are younger than 28 and experiencing hair loss, we are happy to provide a hair loss prevention consultation. Please get in touch if you'd like to arrange this.
Following a consultation with our surgeon, we'll determine the number of grafts you require and provide exact pricing.
