Hair transplantation is a capillary restoration technique that is applicable to both men and women.
Hair transplantation is the approach of choice for the surgical correction of the problem of hair loss.
In addition to correcting androgenic hair loss, it is used to adjust high frontal lines following a facelift to hide scars of the scalp and redefine missing eyebrows.
Characteristics of hair transplants
Individual hairs do not live in isolation, but in groupings of one to four, called « follicular units ». These units are invisible to the naked eye. However, with a microscope, it is possible to obtain the optimal use of all the harvested follicles. There is less chance of damaging the « follicular units », thus leading to natural results.
Hair Transplantation: A Minor Surgery
Hair transplantation involves minor surgery that produces durable results. The micrograft procedure does not add hair; it redistributes the hair that already exists on the crown.
Hair transplantation: excellent results, few disadvantages
- One or two visits are sufficient.
- The local anesthetic is administered using a spray gun rather than a needle.
- The hair transplant procedure leaves no visual evidence, except for small traces of irritated skin, which disappear in a few days. Bandages are not necessary.
- The receiving area can be covered by the patient’s own hair or, if needed, by a hat or hairpiece.
- The remaining hair fully covers the donor area.
- Shampooing is possible as soon as the next day.

Follicular Micrografting: A Proven Method
A safe and tested procedure, follicular micrografting is a real solution to hair loss. Results are widely known and proven. Hair is taken from the crown (the lower contour of the head), where hair growth continues even in the case of severe hair loss. Results are durable as the grafted hair is not affected by hair loss.
