Hair Grafting

Restore a fuller, natural-looking hairline with our advanced Hair Grafting procedures. Using safe and precise techniques, we transplant healthy hair follicles to thinning areas, delivering long-lasting and confidence-boosting results.

What is Hair Transplantation?

Hair transplantation is a specialized medical procedure in which healthy, DHT-resistant hair roots are taken from the donor region, typically the back and sides of the scalp, and transplanted into areas affected by baldness. This technique allows natural hair growth in thinning or bald patches, restoring both hair and confidence. Unlike temporary solutions such as wigs or hairpieces, hair transplantation offers a permanent and natural outcome because the transplanted follicles continue to grow like normal hair. It is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort while delivering long-lasting, natural-looking results.

Hair Transplantation Methods

Hair transplantation can be carried out using two primary techniques:

Strip Technique or FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation):

This surgical method involves removing a strip of skin from the back of the head, from which individual hair follicles are separated and implanted in bald areas. Since this procedure requires cutting and stitching of the scalp, it can be more painful and often results in a long linear scar.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction):

In this advanced method, hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area without any incision or stitches. These follicles are then placed in bald patches. This approach is minimally invasive, less painful, and leaves no linear scars.

How Many Hair or Follicular Units Will I Require?

The number of grafts needed depends on three important factors:

  • Present Baldness: Baldness is classified into 7 grades. Higher grades naturally require more follicular units.
  • Desired Hairline: A lower or more forward hairline design requires more grafts for natural coverage.
  • Desired Density: Patients seeking fuller density (around 45 FU/sq.cm) will require more grafts compared to those opting for camouflage density (around 22 FU/sq.cm).

What is the HARRTS Procedure Like?

Under local anesthesia, the HARRTS device is used to gently extract micro hair grafts from the donor area at the back of the head. These grafts are then placed into thinning or bald patches using the latest implantation technology, leading to natural, permanent hair regrowth.

HARRTS Robotic Hair Transplant & Benefits

The Human Assisted Rapid Robotic Hair Transplantation System (HARRTS) represents the most advanced, minimally invasive technology available for hair restoration in both men and women. Developed by experts in medicine and engineering, HARRTS allows physicians to perform procedures with greater safety, efficiency, and precision. It is currently recognized as the fastest, safest, least invasive, and most result-oriented technique. Dr. Thaj Laser Skin Hair Clinic proudly introduces this groundbreaking technology.

How Long Does the Procedure Take?

The entire treatment usually takes about 5–6 hours. With its advanced design, the HARRTS device can complete the harvesting process up to one-third faster than other methods, minimizing the time grafts remain outside the body and enhancing overall results.

Am I a Good Candidate for the HARRTS Procedure?

Most individuals experiencing hair loss are suitable candidates for HARRTS, especially those who:

  • Prefer very short hairstyles
  • Wish to avoid long recovery periods
  • Have undergone a strip surgery before and need scar camouflage

It is effective for both men and women with reduced hair density. A consultation with our doctors will confirm suitability.

What Kind of Results Should I Expect?

A fuller, thicker, and younger-looking head of hair will result from the transplanted hair growing naturally in bald or thinning areas. The results are long-lasting and utterly genuine because the transplanted grafts are your own natural hair. Patients will experience consistent hair growth, increased density, and a natural hairline that blends in perfectly with their natural hair over a few months. Over time, the results improve with appropriate care and upkeep, providing a long-lasting and realistic-looking remedy for hair loss.

When Will I See the Results?

Although it may initially appear as soft, fine strands, new hair typically starts to grow three months after the procedure. By roughly six months, the hairline begins to appear more defined and natural, and there is a discernible improvement in thickness, density, and overall coverage.

When the transplanted follicles fully mature and begin to produce permanent, natural-looking hair, the biggest change takes place between 12 and 14 months. The regrown hair blends in perfectly with your existing strands, giving you a fuller and healthier appearance, even though some initial shedding is normal during the first few weeks.

What Kind of Results Should I Expect?

What About My Existing Hair? How Do I Prevent Further Loss?

Your existing hair is still susceptible to DHT-induced thinning, even though transplanted hair is permanent. Doctors may recommend drugs or treatments to preserve and protect natural hair and stop additional loss.

Can I Customize My Hair Transplantation?

Yes, you can personalize your procedure by choosing the specific areas to be treated and the number of grafts required. Our specialists use the HARRTS Hair Studio Application to help plan and calculate the ideal number of grafts for your goals.

What Takes Place in the Donor Area? Is Hair Regrowth Possible?

Even after graft extraction, the donor region’s appearance is unaltered. Because only specific follicles are removed, no baldness appears in the donor area. You will appear denser and fuller overall because the transplanted follicles are simply redistributed to restore balance.

How Long Does It Take to Recover?

In general, the recuperation is swift and easy. With only minor activity limitations, the majority of patients return to work in a few days. The process is minimally invasive, safe, and intended to promote effective healing.
