In the simplest terms, a hair transplant is a surgical procedure in which hair is removed from the donor zone at the back of your head — where your hair is genetically programmed to grow for life — and transplanted into the balding and thinning areas of your scalp. Advanced Hair Transplant is an outpatient surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia. Our doctors plan the surgery in advance by carefully considering the stage of your hair loss, your goals and your expectations.

There is a step-by-step process for hair transplants, with the biggest difference being the choice of donor hair harvesting technique. At Renew Derma, we offer both FUT Strip Harvest and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedures. Our doctors suggest and perform the technique that is best suited to you based on factors such as your age and the hair density in the donor area.

FUT Strip Harvesting: A strip of tissue is removed from your donor zone and then dissected into follicular units of 1–4 hairs.
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE): Grafts are harvested individually from the donor area and then trimmed under a microscope.

The decision to have cosmetic surgery is a very personal one. Patients may go through a range of emotions — from pre-consultation jitters to post-surgery satisfaction. If you have an important event in mind, it’s recommended to schedule your visit to Renew Derma several months in advance. Depending on the procedure(s) chosen, results can be immediate or may take up to a year to fully appear
