Hair Transplant Boston, MA

Step 1: Personalized Consultation & Treatment Plan

Every patient requires a highly personalized treatment plan, which means that the first step involves a thorough consultation. During that time, we will evaluate the type and extent of your hair loss, review your medical history, and discuss your aesthetic goals. Based on this information, we will develop a custom FUE hair transplant plan tailored to your needs.

Step 2: Local Anesthesia Application

Before the procedure begins, we will administer local anesthetic to ensure a comfortable, pain-free experience throughout the process. You will be awake throughout the entire procedure, which typically takes 6 to 8 hours. Most patients pass the time listening to music, scrolling on their phones, or even taking a nap.

Step 3: Follicle Extraction with Smart Technology

Using advanced SmartGraft or NeoGraft technology, your hair transplant professional will carefully extract healthy hair follicles one by one from the donor site. Each graft is removed through tiny, 1-mm incisions that heal as virtually invisible dots.

Step 4: Graft Placement

The harvested follicles are strategically implanted in the thinning or balding areas to match your natural hair growth pattern and direction. This enables your hair to look fuller and creates a natural-looking hairline.

Step 5: Immediate Post-Op Rest

Once the hair transplant surgery is done, you will be given post-op care instructions. You will be able to return to your accommodations immediately, and most patients choose to travel back to Boston the following day.

FUE Hair Transplant Results & Recovery

If you have a short haircut, we recommend shaving the hair before the procedure – this will allow the donor area to blend in better during the healing process. The healing process takes 7 to 10 days, during which you will need to avoid any strenuous activity that may disrupt healing.

Once the tiny incisions are healed, you will need to be patient: the first results take up to 3 months to become noticeable, while the final results can take as long as a full year.

Male Hair Transplant vs. Female Hair Transplant for Boston Patients

Both men and women in Boston can suffer from androgenic alopecia. However, it is important to recognize the differences in male- and female-pattern hair loss and to customize male vs. female hair transplant for Boston patients.

• Male hair transplant patients typically suffer from male-pattern hair loss, which involves a balding crown and a receding hairline. Here, restoring a natural hairline that complements other facial features is key.
• Female hair transplant patients usually experience female-pattern hair loss, which presents itself as uniform hair thinning across the entire scalp. With this type of alopecia, the hair transplant team focuses on restoring the natural hair density and scalp coverage.
