What should you know about Shaqiri hair transplant?

Hair restoration surgery redistributes follicles rather than creating new ones. Follicles are taken from a donor zone and placed into thinning or bald areas according to a planned hairline and density. Pattern hair loss is a common reason for assessment, while traction alopecia may require a different discussion. A clinician also checks whether loss is progressing, whether the scalp is healthy, and whether donor hair can support the requested design. Early shedding can occur before later growth becomes visible.

During consultation, bring details of when loss began, previous treatments, medical conditions, and medicines. Ask to see a personalised plan rather than relying on a celebrity comparison. Medical treatment may be considered for surrounding hair. PRP for hair loss and scalp micropigmentation can be discussed as separate options: one aims to support hair-related goals, while the other creates the appearance of short follicles. Follow the clinic’s instructions for washing, exercise, sun exposure, and touching the grafts.

After a procedure, report increasing redness, pus, fever, severe pain, persistent bleeding, or swelling that affects the eyes or breathing. Before scheduling surgery, seek assessment for sudden bald patches, scaling, or painful scalp because an untreated scalp problem can change the plan. Do not scratch or pick at crusts unless the treating team tells you how to clean them.

Ask what is causing the loss, whether it is stable, how donor follicles will be conserved, what density is realistic, what aftercare is required, and how future thinning will be managed.
