What is a Hair transplant?

A hair transplant is a type of surgery that moves hair from one area to fill in another area that has thin or no hair. Hair transplant procedures started in the 1950s; however, today’s techniques are much more advanced.

The procedure is usually done in a doctor’s office or clinic. The surgeon first cleans the scalp and injects medication to numb the back of your head. They will then choose the right method to transplant hair. Hair grafts are individual follicles that are placed into your scalp. The appearance on the scalp looks like small dots, which are holes or slits created with a needle or scalpel. The hair grafts are then placed into these holes.

The hair transplant process can take anywhere from four to eight hours. It may be necessary to have another procedure later if you lose more hair or would like your hair to be thicker.

This is the basic procedure for a hair transplant, though this may vary depending on the specific treatment the doctor determines you need.

Our Hair loss clinic Bristol Services

We offer the following hair transplant services:

Follicular Unit Excision (FUE)

The Follicular Unit Excision is one of the main transplant techniques we offer, and it’s the least surgically invasive. For this method, strong, healthy hair is removed from the donor zone (usually on the back of the head, where hair growth is not usually affected by hair loss).

The hairs are removed from this zone in small, natural groupings or follicular units, which consist of one to four hairs. These units are approximately 0.75 to 1mm wide and are carefully removed with a micropunch, a surgical tool used for hair transplants of this kind.

After removal, the hair follicles are checked and cleaned under magnification. After this, the follicular units are stored in a holding solution while the surgeon creates recipient sites where hair has been lost. The entire process can take up to eight hours, though more extensive transplants may require two sessions.

Body Hair Follicular Unit Excision (BHFUE)

Body Hair Follicular Unit Excision is an advanced hair transplant method used to expand the donor area. Body hair removal is a challenging process as many areas of the body are pliable, making hair removal difficult.

Follicular Unit Transplants (FUT)

Follicular Unit Transplants are also known as the “strip technique.” This method requires greater surgical expertise. A small strip of skin is removed from the back or sides of the head. These strips contain the donor hair. The reason for using a strip is that this method allows many hairs to be removed at the same time.

Next, the hairs are removed from the strip in follicular units, cleaned, and placed in the holding solution. The surgeon then creates recipient sites in areas of hair loss and implants the follicular units in the same manner as the FUE procedure (see above).

Beard/Eyebrow/Eyelash Transplants

Follicular Unit Transplants are also known as the “strip technique.” This method requires greater surgical expertise. A small strip of skin is removed from the back or sides of the head. These strips contain the donor hair. The reason for using a strip is that this method allows many hairs to be removed at the same time.

Next, the hairs are removed from the strip in follicular units, cleaned, and placed in the holding solution. The surgeon then creates recipient sites in areas of hair loss and implants the follicular units in the same manner as the FUE procedure (see above).

The Effects of Hair Loss

Hair transplant surgery process

Alopecia is the medical term for several kinds of hair loss in men and women. This is a common condition that affects more than 40% of women aged 40 and more. More than 50% of men are affected by this condition.

People who experience alopecia can feel stressed, experience low self-esteem, and more. Many people may experience psychological distress caused by hair loss for years after alopecia begins. Those who have never experienced hair loss don’t understand the psychological toll this condition can have on a person.

For instance, it’s not uncommon for those with alopecia to feel high levels of social anxiety and depression. They feel robbed of their appearance, youth, and personality. They’re not able to recognize themselves as the person in the mirror. However, our treatments can have a huge positive impact on our patients’ emotional and psychological wellbeing.

Hair Transplant in Bristol FAQs​

The cost of ahair transplantin Bristol can vary depending on several factors, including the extent of the treatment, the number of grafts needed, and the clinic or surgeon performing the procedure. It’s essential to consult with a qualified surgeon for an accurate cost estimate based on your individual needs.
Ideal candidates for hair transplants are generally in good overall health and have sufficient donor hair (typically from the back or sides of the scalp) to transplant to the balding or thinning areas. A consultation with a qualified hair transplant surgeon will help determine if you are a suitable candidate for the procedure.
Yes, the results of a hair transplant are considered permanent. The transplanted hair follicles are genetically resistant to the hormone DHT, which is responsible for hair loss in male and female pattern baldness. However, it’s important to note that while the transplanted hair will not fall out, natural hair loss may continue in other areas of the scalp over time.
Hair growth typically begins within a few months after the procedure, but it can take up to a year to see full results. Initially, the transplanted hair may fall out, but this is normal, and new hair will grow in its place.
Theduration of a hair transplantprocedure can vary depending on the extent of the treatment and the number of grafts being transplanted. On average, it can take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours.

I would thoroughly recommend Dr Arshad @ the Hair Dr and his team. They have done an astonishing job that I thought was unachievable and exceeded my expectations. After the procedure, Dr Arshad explained the aftercare requirements in detail. I was then given a comprehensive aftercare package with an easy-to-follow video and checklist.

Dr Arshad was amazing. He went into great detail about the procedure and what to expect, explaining the best way to achieve optimal results from both his side and my aftercare routine. The aftercare was very well provided, including a clear step-by-step chart for the 7 days following the procedure. All the staff were incredibly kind and made me feel comfortable throughout the day. I’m happy with the results so far and now waiting for the initial growth over the coming months.

I had wanted to undergo this procedure for quite some time, but finding the right clinic was not easy. After my 11-hour day yesterday and previous consultations with the highly professional and knowledgeable Dr Arshad, I know I made the right decision choosing this team. The clinic is lovely, and the team is friendly and caring. A big thank you to Laura, Samina, Sarah, and Jenna for taking such great care of me alongside Dr Arshad. As a clinician myself, I would wholeheartedly recommend this clinic to any of my patients needing this type of treatment.

Dr Arshad and his team were excellent from my initial consultation through to the end of the procedure. It has been a week since my surgery, and my hair already looks great. The donor area is almost completely healed and barely noticeable. On the day of the procedure, the entire team, including the technicians, were friendly and welcoming. The aftercare package was very well prepared, and everything was explained clearly. I’m really looking forward to seeing the full results over the next few months.

Thank you all!
