What should you know about Elit hair transplant?

A hair transplant moves follicles from a donor area, commonly the back or sides of the scalp, into areas with reduced density. It can be considered for Male Pattern Hair Loss, Female Pattern Hair Loss, or selected Traction Alopecia, but the underlying cause matters. Active scalp inflammation, unstable loss, or insufficient donor hair may change the plan.

The transplanted hairs shed temporarily as the follicles settle, and visible growth develops gradually. The final look depends on follicle characteristics, hair calibre, coverage goals, scalp condition, and how the hairline is designed.

Request a consultation with the clinician who will diagnose the loss and design the graft placement. Ask whether follicular unit extraction or another harvesting method is proposed, who performs each stage, how the donor area will be protected, and what follow-up is included. Review photographs carefully and ask whether they represent comparable hair type and loss pattern.

Discuss medical options that may stabilise ongoing loss before or after surgery. PRP For Hair Loss and Scalp Micropigmentation may be discussed as separate approaches or adjuncts, depending on the diagnosis.

Seek assessment before booking if loss is sudden, patchy, painful, scaly, or associated with scarring, because a transplant may not address the cause. After surgery, contact the clinic for increasing pain, spreading redness, fever, pus, heavy bleeding, or unexpected loss of sensation.
