Female Hair Transplant

Whilst hair transplant procedures are more commonly on men, it is possible for women to have a hair transplant procedure too and this is steadily increasing in popularity.

Hair loss is a sensitive topic and losing hair can decrease confidence as well as have a negative impact on a person’s mental health.

It is reported that one in three women will experience hair loss during their life. The cause of is a lot wider and could be down to a number of factors including:

Female pattern baldness, also known as alopecia in women, can be classified using the Ludwig classification system. Although female baldness is not treatable, there are a variety of treatments available that can help to slow and hair loss. .

In most cases, female hair loss is not permanent, and many patients expect to see their hair grow back over time with lifestyle changes, medication, and non-surgical hair loss treatments.

In some cases, it may be suggested that the best way of resolving your hair loss issues is to undergo a hair transplant procedure to areas of hair loss.

A female hair procedure should only be performed once the cause of hair loss has been established. This often requires the patient to have a consultation with a hair loss expert prior to a hair transplant surgeon who will be able to identify the source of hair loss and advise as to whether or not restoration surgery is a good option and is likely to be successful.

Hair transplantation for women

Female hair transplants are a specialised hair restoration procedure and should only be undertaken by a hair transplant surgeon who is knowledgeable and skilled in female hair transplant procedures.

Depending on the cause of hair loss, the areas which need to be treated in a female hair transplant will vary some may need a hair transplant that focuses on restoring the hairline and temples, and others may need a more widespread treatment to improve on hair thinning.

Swelling, redness and tightness are all common in the initial days following an FUE Hair Transplant. This can take a few days to subside but the medication provided should help you to feel comfortable.

A strict aftercare plan will have been provided to you by your surgeon which involves spraying the scalp with a saline solution on a regular basis for the first couple of days following your procedure. It is really important that you follow this plan in order to ensure the best results.

Post-operative appointments usually take place at 6 weeks and 12 months where your surgeon will then be able to advise further on how to look after your newly implanted follicles

We recommend that patients take at least 1-3 days off work on the nature of your role but for patients who wish to be more secretive of their hair transplant procedure may be worth booking at least 1 week or longer off work to allow for the area to heal and any redness to subside.

Exercise and strenuous activity should be avoided for 2 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

In order to explain the benefits of our treatment and what it involves, it helps to give you an idea of what is involved in the more Strip .

The Strip technique involves removing a long band of skin from the back of the head with a scalpel, then the under a microscope before placing them onto the bald or thinning area. This technique always leaves a scar, no matter how skilled the surgeon is, and can cause nerve damage and numbness of the scalp.

With FUE, a special punch less than 1 mm in diameter is used to remove the hair follicles directly from the scalp. There is no need for a scalpel, hence no stitching or scarring. We can safely extract up to 7000 hairs in one day whereas with previous generations of FUE it was only possible to safely extract 2500 hairs a day. Another advantage of FUE is that none of the follicular units are damaged during the extraction, whereas with the Strip method up to 30% of the donor follicles may be damaged by the use of a scalpel.

Female Hair Transplants are performed under a local anaesthetic so you might feel a small prick initially whilst this is being administered. But, once it takes affect, you should not feel any pain for the rest of the hair transplant operation.

In the days following a hair transplant procedure you may feel a bit sore in the areas treated but this should only be temporary and you will be with medication to help you feel more comfortable.

The length of the depends on the number of hairs needed.

Most female hair transplant procedures usually take between 6 and 8 hours.

In larger cases, the procedure may be split across 2 days. In smaller cases, it will take less time.

You will be provided with an estimated time your consultation.

Female Hair Transplant procedures will be different depending on each patients needs. It is to understand that costing for a hair transplant is very individual and will depend on a number of factors which can only be assessed during a female hair transplant consultation.
