FUE
What are the advantages of FUE
Faster healing time with minimal discomfort, less down time and fewer restrictions on activities that can be performed post the procedure are some of the key benefits of a hair transplant using FUE
Is FUE suitable for both men and women?
Yes. It is a viable option for both men and women looking to restore their hair with transplantation.
How long will it take for my hair to grow and when will I see the final result?
The majority of our patients will see hair growth in 6 - 12 months. Normally, the hair follicles go through a stress phase where the cells are unable to produce hair and after the stress phase normal growth commences. Final results are seen in the 12 to 18 month timeframe
How quick is the healing following FUE?
Healing after undergoing FUE is relatively quick and fairly painless. The most important aspect post-transplant is the healing of the transplanted grafts. It is imperative that the donor sites are left alone and rubbing or massaging be avoided to eliminate the risk of increased pain or swelling. The technique followed at Radiant minimizes the risk of swelling and speeds up the healing in donor and recipient areas of the scalp.
Who is a good candidate for FUE?
Patients who are acceptable to wearing a very short haircut in the back or side of the scalp or those who want minimal activity restriction after the hair transplant procedure are good candidates for FUE.
What is the maximum number of grafts that I can get in one session?
The maximum number of grafts that can be comfortably done is approximately 2000 in a single day. Having said that, the patient’s comfort is above all else and the number is decided on a case to case basis.
When is the best time for me to have an FUE procedure?
A downtime of 48 to 72 hours is needed after the procedure to enable healing and to rule out the risk of infection. Again, each case is different and the precise instructions will be given to you during consultation / after the procedure. Needless to say, it is important to plan to have some downtime
How do I know if I am a good candidate for FUE?
The simplest way to conclude if you are a suitable candidate for FUE hair transplant is to schedule an appointment with us. Contact us now for an appointment and get your queries resolved by our expert team of doctors.
Mega Sessions
How long does a mega session surgery take?
An average mega session operation for approximately 3000 grafts lasts 6-7 hours
Is the procedure painful?
The procedure is carried out under local anaesthesia. Patients may experience mild pain which can be easily managed with mild painkillers
Are the results of mega session permanent?
Hair follicles taken from the donor areas (back and sides of the head) are genetically resistant to the hormones causing hair loss. Since these follicles keep their genetic features in the recipient area as well, the changes are permanent.
APRP
Who is an ideal candidate for APRP?
People who have scanty hair growth and weak hair are ideal candidates for APRP. Our expert surgeons will carry out a thorough examination and explain to you the expected results. Results vary on a case to case basis.
How long do the effects of PRP treatment last?
Studies suggest that plain PRP treatments for hair loss are good for around 6 weeks while PRP treatments combined extracellular matrixes last for up to 2 years. However, repeated treatments may be required after a gap of a year.
Are there any conditions in which patients are not advised APRP?
PRP treatment is not advised for patients with blood and platelet disorders, chronic liver disease, the presence of an active severe infection, cardiovascular or hemodynamic instability and/or the presence of anticoagulation therapy
When can I expect results from APRP treatment?
In most cases, it takes six to nine months for visible results after a APRP hair loss treatment.
When can I expect results from APRP treatment?
In most cases, it takes six to nine months for visible results after a APRP hair loss treatment.
When can I resume my normal activities?
After a PRP treatment, there is no downtime as such. Daily routine activities can be resumed right after the treatment. There is some inflammation and redness in the affected areas but this is not a cause for concern. After a couple of hours, patients can even style their hair the way they want, take a shower, and even shampoo their hair. Also, harsh chemicals including hair colouring and perming must not be done for atleast 72 hours.
