- Linear scar (hidden)
- 10-15% cheaper
- Ideal for large surfaces
FUE (Point Extraction)
- Individual follicles harvested
- Minimum scars

Your situation determines the best choice.
Density & Planning: The Facts π
What no one tells you:
- Natural scalp: 80-100 hairs per cm2
- Transplantation: 35-60 hairs per cm2 (maximum)
- Strategic placement creates density illusion
This explains why surgeon experience is crucial.
Donor Management: Your Limited Stock π
Essential knowledge: You have limited donor hair.
- Average: 6000-8000 grafts available (lifetime)
- One treatment: 1500-3000 grafts
- Future hair loss? Plan ahead!
This is why some women are being rejected as insufficient donor for lifelong need.

Hair Type & Transplantation: The Hidden Match π§¬
Curly, steep or wavy?
It matters!
- Curly hair = less grafts needed (optical fuller)
- Steil hair = more grafts for the same covering
- Thick hair = faster complete result
- Fine hair = more subtle, natural transition
Did you know this? Japanese/Asian hair gives on average 30% more cover per graft!
Styling After Transplantation: The Game-Changers πββοΈ
Year 1 after treatment?
These styles save you:
- Soft waves (camouflaging growth phase)
- Root volume products (2x density effect)
- Temporary fibers (invisible help)
Avoid:
- Extensions (pull on new grafts)
- Tight tails (pressure on donor area)
- Chemical treatments (first 6 months)
Hair Colors & Transplantation: Strategic Choices π¨
Fact: hair color determines scalp visibility!

- Light blonde = scalp more visible
- Dark brown/black = strong contrast to skin
- Red tones = less visible dilution
- Grey/white = optical fuller effect
Pro tip: Consider color strategy BEFORE treatment!
Sport & Recovery: When do we start again? πββοΈ
- Day 1-7: Complete rest (no discussion!)
- Day 8-14: Walking OK (no sweating!)
- Day 15-30: Light cardio (heart rate <120)
- Day 30+: Gradual return
- Day 90+: Full sports schedule

Main yoga? Wait six months! Swimming? Wait at least 4 weeks!
The Hidden Causes Checklist β οΈ
Before booking: eliminate these triggers
- Iron deficiency (30% of female hair loss!)
- Vitamin D deficiency (testing, testing, testing!)
- Thyroid values (SH, T3, T4 check)
- Chronic stress (cortisol = hair killer)
- Drug Reactions (statins, beta blockers)
Fix this first = possibly no transplant required!
Travel After Treatment: Dovetails & Donat βοΈ
- First 48 hours: DO NOT fly (change of pressure)
- First week: DO NOT drive (neck load)
- First 30 days: Avoid extreme climates
- First 90 days: Avoid direct sun
Tip: Soft scarf / hat = your best travel partner
