How long does it take for the results of a hair transplant in Delhi?

Some patients are unaware that the results of a hair transplant are not immediate. They may not walk out of the centre with full hair. They are surprised to know that it takes a year for the actual results to show. During consultations with your surgeon, understanding a few general timelines may help you with the realistic expectations of hair transplantation.

How is a hair transplant done?

The hair transplant in Delhi restores your natural hair. It is a permanent solution for your constant hair loss or baldness. It is performed under local anaesthesia. Hair follicles from the donor site are extracted and are implanted to the bald site, also termed the recipient site. These hair follicles may be exfoliated from the area that is resistant to hair loss. Therefore, your hair may continue to grow without hair falling.

Hair follicles are implanted in minute tiny slitsor incisions in the hairless site. Every follicle has its life cycle. It involves a growth phase termed the Anagen. It may last for two to six years. Next is the resting stage is known as the Telogen. It may last for many months. Mostly hair transplants fall into the resting stage. It lasts for a 3-to-4-month period.

Surprisingly, very few new hair growths may be noticed in this phase. The transplanted hair may fall in the initial few weeks post-surgery. This may be frustrating. However, this is a normal sign. It paves the way for the dense growth of new hair growth. This thinning of newly implanted hair is termed as “ugly duckling” period.
