- The donor area at the back and sides is shaved and anaesthetised locally.
- Follicular units are extracted one at a time with a punch, usually 0.7 to 0.9mm.
- Recipient channels are opened in the thinning area, setting the angle and direction of every future hair.
- Grafts are placed into those channels. The channel-opening step, not the extraction, is what makes a hairline look designed rather than planted.
Recovery & Aftercare
Crusting for seven to ten days and a first wash at the clinic on day three or four. Transplanted hairs shed within the first month, new growth appears from month four, and the result fills in through months eight to twelve.
Risks & Considerations
The common failures are poor growth from rough handling or long time outside the body, and a hairline placed too low or too straight. Both are decided on the day and neither is visible for months.
Over-harvesting the donor area to reach a large graft count leaves visible thinning at the back and nothing in reserve for later loss.
