What is a Hair Transplant?
A hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure that redistributes hair follicles from areas of dense growth, typically the back or sides of the head, to areas affected by hair loss or thinning. This approach allows for the growth of natural, permanent hair in the treated areas, restoring both hairline and volume. At NIHS Clinic, we use advanced methods to create results that look and feel natural, enhancing both aesthetics and self-confidence.
Why is a Hair Transplant Performed?
Hair transplants are an effective solution for treating a variety of hair loss conditions. At NIHS Clinic, we typically perform hair transplants for the following reasons:

- Who Needs It: Individuals experiencing a receding hairline, bald spots, or overall thinning who want a fuller and natural hair appearance.
-
Treatment of Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia)
- Purpose: Treats genetic hair loss by redistributing hair to areas impacted by male or female pattern baldness.
- Who Needs It: Patients with a family history of hair loss or those noticing early signs of thinning or baldness.
-
Repair of Previous Transplants or Scars
- Purpose: Enhances the appearance of past hair transplants or covers scars from previous procedures or injuries.
- Who Needs It: Individuals with visible scarring or unsatisfactory results from previous hair transplants.
-
Restoration of Facial Hair (Beard, Eyebrows)

Types of Hair Transplants Offered at NIHS Clinic
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)
- Purpose: Extracts individual hair follicles and transplants them to targeted areas, resulting in natural growth patterns.
- Uses: Ideal for achieving natural-looking results with minimal scarring and a shorter recovery time.
-
Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)
- Purpose: Removes a small strip of scalp to harvest hair follicles for transplantation, often used for larger areas.
- Uses: Suitable for individuals requiring more extensive coverage in a single session.
-
Direct Hair Implantation (DHI)
- Purpose: Directly implants hair follicles into the scalp using a specialized implanter tool for high precision.
- Uses: Commonly chosen for achieving high density and accuracy in placement.
-
Preparation for Hair Transplant
General Preparation:
- Clothing: Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes to make it easier to change before and after the procedure.
-
- Medications: Inform the clinic about any medications you’re taking, as some may need to be paused before the transplant.
-
- Dietary Restrictions: Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and smoking before the procedure, as these can affect blood flow and healing.

Procedure Details
Process:
- Hair Follicle Harvesting: Hair follicles are collected from a designated donor area, usually the back or sides of the head, using either the FUE or FUT method.
-
- Transplantation: The harvested follicles are then implanted in the targeted areas, following natural growth patterns to create a seamless appearance.
-
- Duration: The procedure typically takes 4-8 hours, depending on the extent of the transplant and the method used.

Safety and Risks
- Safety: Hair transplants are generally safe with minimal risk, performed by qualified professionals in a sterile environment.

- Follow-up instructions are provided to promote optimal healing and ensure the longevity of the transplant.
