What is a hair transplant?
A hair transplant is a medical procedure that involves relocating individual hair follicles from one part of the body, called the ‘donor site’, to bald or balding parts of the body known as the ‘recipient site’. Typically used to treat male pattern baldness, hair transplants are increasingly popular among individuals looking to restore hair due to various types of alopecia or hair thinning. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia and can offer a permanent solution to hair loss.
What causes hair loss?
Hair loss can arise from various factors, ranging from genetic predispositions to lifestyle impacts. Below are the primary causes:
- Genetic Factors: Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern baldness, is a hereditary condition causing predictable hair loss patterns—receding hairlines in men and thinning crowns in women.
- Hormonal Changes: Changes such as pregnancy, menopause, or thyroid issues can trigger hair loss. Conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are also linked to hair thinning.
- Medical Conditions: Hair loss can stem from scalp infections like ringworm or autoimmune diseases like alopecia areata, where the immune system attacks hair follicles.
- Medications: Certain medications for cancer, arthritis, depression, and other conditions may have hair loss as a side effect.
- Nutritional Deficiencies: Lacking essential nutrients such as iron, vitamin D, and protein can lead to hair shedding and thinning.
- Stress: Physical or emotional stress can induce a temporary hair loss condition known as telogen effluvium, where hair follicles prematurely enter a resting phase.
- Hairstyling Practices: Over-styling or harsh treatments like tight braids and strong chemicals can cause traction alopecia, resulting in hair thinning and loss.
Understanding these causes is crucial in addressing hair loss effectively. At YD Beauty Surgery Hospital, we tailor treatments to combat these specific causes and restore hair health.

Understanding Hair Transplant
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)
This technique involves extracting individual hair follicles directly from the scalp without removing a strip of tissue. Each follicular unit contains 1 to 4 hairs and is extracted with a tiny punch typically ranging from 0.6mm to 1.0mm in diameter. The primary advantages of FUE include minimal scarring and a shorter recovery time, making it a preferred choice for those who wear their hair short.
Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)
Also known as strip surgery, this method involves removing a strip of scalp from the donor area which is then dissected into individual follicular units. While FUT can leave a linear scar, it allows for the transplantation of a larger number of grafts in one session and is often recommended for patients requiring substantial coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions about Hair Transplant
Get answers to the most common queries about Hair Transplant at YD Beauty Surgery. Our FAQs are here to help you make an informed decision and prepare for your transformation journey with confidence.
Is hair transplant surgery painful?
While discomfort during the procedure is minimized with local anesthesia, patients may experience some soreness or mild discomfort post-operatively. However, pain is typically manageable with prescribed medications.
How long does it take to see results after a hair transplant?
Hair growth following a transplant is gradual, with initial results becoming visible within 3 to 6 months. Full results, including thicker and denser hair, can be appreciated within 12 to 18 months post-procedure.
Are hair transplant results permanent?
Yes, hair transplant results are considered permanent as transplanted hair follicles are resistant to the hormone responsible for hair loss. However, it’s essential to maintain overall scalp health and follow post-operative care instructions to optimize long-term results.
Will I have noticeable scars after a hair transplant?
With modern techniques like Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), scarring is minimal and often undetectable. Tiny puncture wounds heal quickly, leaving tiny dot-like scars that are easily concealed by surrounding hair.
Am I a suitable candidate for a hair transplant?
Ideal candidates for hair transplant surgery have sufficient donor hair, good overall health, and realistic expectations. During a consultation, our specialists will assess your candidacy based on these factors and recommend the most suitable treatment plan.
Can I undergo multiple hair transplant procedures?
Yes, multiple hair transplant procedures can be performed to achieve desired hair density and coverage, especially for individuals with advanced hair loss or those seeking additional enhancement.
How long is the recovery period after a hair transplant?
Recovery time varies among individuals but typically ranges from 7 to 10 days. Patients can resume non-strenuous activities shortly after the procedure, with full recovery and hair growth progression over several months.
Are there any risks or complications associated with hair transplant surgery?
While hair transplant surgery is generally safe, like any surgical procedure, it carries some risks, including infection, bleeding, swelling, and scarring. Our experienced medical team takes comprehensive measures to minimize these risks and ensure a smooth recovery process for every patient.
