Hair loss is a prevalent concern affecting a significant number of individuals. Factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, and aging contribute to hair thinning and balding patterns. At Yaprak Hair Clinic NZ, we specialize in Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedures to address hair loss effectively.

Male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) and female pattern baldness are primarily influenced by genetic factors and hormonal changes. Stress and certain lifestyle factors may exacerbate hair loss but are not the primary cause. Our FUE procedures are designed to target specific balding areas and restore natural-looking hair growth.

Our team at Hair Clinic NZ will assess your candidacy for FUE hair transplantation during a comprehensive consultation. Factors such as the extent of hair loss, donor hair availability, scalp health, and realistic expectations will be considered. We specialize in customizing treatment plans for each patient to achieve optimal results.

Facts and questions

FUE hair transplantation is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort during the procedure. Patients may experience mild soreness or swelling post-operatively, which can be managed with prescribed medications. Our focus is on providing a comfortable and positive experience for every patient.

Following FUE hair transplantation, patients can typically resume showering and swimming after a few days of initial healing. Our team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions, including guidelines for hair washing and activities to promote proper healing and graft survival.

 Transplanted hair from FUE procedures is considered permanent as it is sourced from donor areas resistant to balding. While some shedding of transplanted hair may occur initially, new hair growth should begin within a few months, leading to natural-looking results. We schedule follow-up appointments, including a checkup the day after surgery, to monitor grafts and ensure optimal healing.

 Ideal candidates for FUE hair transplantation are individuals with stable hair loss patterns, sufficient donor hair, good scalp health, and realistic expectations. Our specialized approach and expertise in FUE techniques allow us to tailor treatment plans for each patient’s unique needs.

FUE hair transplantation involves extracting individual hair follicles from the donor area and implanting them into the recipient area with precision and artistry. Our skilled team utilizes advanced FUE techniques to achieve natural-looking results and restore hair density effectively.

The duration of an FUE hair transplantation procedure depends on the extent of hair loss and the number of grafts being transplanted. Generally, the procedure can be completed in a single session lasting several hours and often a full day. We schedule a follow-up appointment the day after surgery to check grafts and provide post-operative care instructions.

After FUE hair transplantation, patients may experience some initial redness, swelling, and scabbing, which are normal parts of the healing process. Our team provides comprehensive post-operative care instructions and schedules follow-up appointments to monitor progress, check grafts, and address any concerns.

Patients can expect gradual but significant improvement in hair density and natural-looking hair growth in the transplanted areas over several months. Results vary based on individual factors and adherence to post-operative care instructions. We are committed to ensuring optimal results and patient satisfaction.

While complications with FUE hair transplantation are rare, as with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks such as infection, scarring, or temporary shock loss. Our experienced team takes proactive measures to minimize risks and provides thorough pre-operative and post-operative care to promote a smooth recovery and excellent outcomes for our patients.
