Decades ago, early surgical methods for transplanting hair lacked the precision, advanced technology, and fine detail that make today’s results so stunning. It is very difficult to spot a well-executed hair transplant now, and the number of celebrities maintaining their good looks this way is growing. While a multibillion-dollar hair growth industry has sprung up around medicated shampoos and hair growth potions, most people still want a permanent, dramatic, real restoration of their natural hair.
A hair transplant could be right for you if:
- You don’t want to just cover up, wear a hair piece, or camouflage your scalp
- You want a drug-free way to grow your hair
- You’re ready to invest in long-term hair restoration and growth
- You want to dramatically transform your look and enjoy the styling possibilities that you once had
- You know that self-esteem and a positive body image are closely tied to how appearance makes you feel

Regina Hair Transplant FUE Technology
FUE means follicular unit excision. It is the least invasive, most meticulous, results-based choice for hair restoration with near scar-less results.
All of our hair transplant patients receive a personalized plan created by our plastic surgeons using SmartGraft or NeoGraft FUE technology. “Smart” devices have changed the game in hair restoration, allowing our team to safely extract tiny follicle grafts with minimal discomfort and barely a trace. In fact, follicle removal sites are micro (less than 1 mm), so once they have healed, even short hair can cover them well, unlike the long transplant scars related to old-fashioned methods.
Hair transplant procedures are quite comfortable for our patients, and many of them tell us the day is a breeze. Relaxed on a treatment bed, you listen to music, browse social media, or even sleep while your practitioners work on your future head of hair! Likewise, healing after your hair transplant is a much less intimidating process than it once was, with no long, sensitive scalp incision to care for.
The Process
To prepare you for your FUE hair transplant, we shave a small area at the back of your scalp where healthy, DHT-resistant hairs grow (DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, is the hormone that causes pattern baldness). The donor grafts are extracted in tiny groups of just a few hairs from dense growth areas.
We recommend that clients with short hair have a pre-haircut to help blend the donor area while their hair grows back. With a few simple accommodations during recovery, many patients can avoid telling anyone that they had a hair transplant at all.
Hair transplant recovery time is 7 to 10 days, and you can expect minor swelling and small scab formation during the first 7 days.
Your hair transplant results will last for years – maybe a lifetime! However, patience at the beginning is critical. The normal cycle of hair growth cannot be rushed, so expect to see new growth around the third month and transplanted hairs reaching their full potential by 12 months.
Good things are worth waiting for. Permanent, real hair restoration can finally give you back hassle-free, washable, stylable, youthful hair to run your fingers through daily.
