Sehwag Hair Transplant: What to Know

A consultation assesses the pattern and cause of hair loss, scalp health, hair texture, and the density available in the donor area. During surgery, follicles are collected and placed into small openings designed to follow the natural direction of growth. The result depends on donor supply, ongoing hair loss, follicle characteristics, and the design chosen with the surgeon.

Temporary shedding, swelling, tenderness, scabbing, and numbness can occur during recovery. New growth is gradual, so the appearance changes over time rather than immediately.

Ask for a diagnosis before booking surgery. Pattern hair loss, traction alopecia, inflammatory scalp disease, and patchy loss may need different treatment. Follow instructions about washing, sleeping, exercise, sun exposure, and medicines after the procedure. Do not compare early healing with a final result, and keep follow-up appointments so the grafts and surrounding hair can be reviewed.

Contact the clinic promptly for increasing pain, spreading redness, pus, fever, heavy bleeding, or sudden widespread swelling after surgery. Before surgery, seek a medical assessment for rapidly developing bald patches, scalp pain, scaling, or scarring, since transplantation may not address the underlying cause.

Ask what is causing the loss, how donor follicles will be protected, which technique is proposed, what recovery restrictions apply, and how future thinning may be managed. Discuss medical treatment, PRP, or scalp micropigmentation when surgery is not suitable or when you want alternatives.
