What to Expect During Your FUE Hair Transplant at MHR Clinic

If you're considering a hair transplant, understanding the process can help ease concerns and set realistic expectations. At MHR Clinic, we specialise in the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method—renowned for its natural results, minimal scarring, and swift recovery. In this article, we’ll walk you through every stage of the FUE journey at MHR Clinic.

What Is FUE Hair Transplantation?

FUE involves extracting individual hair follicles—typically from the back or sides of the head (donor area)—and transplanting them to thinning or bald areas (recipient area). This minimally invasive method leaves no linear scar and offers natural-looking results.

Consultation and Assessment

Your journey begins with a personalised consultation. Our hair restoration experts assess your hair loss pattern, donor area quality, and overall scalp condition. We’ll discuss your goals, medical history, and recommend a tailored treatment plan.

Day of the Procedure

1. Preparation: Your scalp will be shaved and cleaned. A local anaesthetic is applied to ensure a pain-free experience throughout the procedure.

2. Extraction: Using a micro-punch tool, individual hair follicles are carefully extracted from the donor area. This precise technique ensures minimal trauma to the scalp and leaves tiny, dot-like scars that are virtually invisible once healed.

3. Implantation: Once the follicles are harvested, we use a Sapphire blade—made from synthetic sapphire crystal—to create fine, V-shaped incisions in the recipient area. These micro-incisions allow for denser implantation and promote faster healing with less scarring compared to traditional steel blades.

Recovery and Aftercare

You’ll be able to return home the same day. Mild redness and scabbing are normal and subside within days. We provide detailed aftercare instructions, including washing, avoiding sun exposure, and avoiding strenuous activity.

Results Timeline

• 2–4 weeks: Transplanted hairs may shed—this is a normal part of the growth cycle.

• 3–6 months: Noticeable regrowth begins.

• 12 months: Full results are typically visible, with thicker, healthier hair.
