The Truth About Hair Transplants: What to Expect Before and After

Hair loss can be distressing, but modern hair transplant techniques offer a reliable and lasting solution. At Tidke Dental and Hair Transplant Centre, we specialize in advanced procedures that deliver natural results while ensuring patient comfort and safety.

What is a Hair Transplant?

A hair transplant involves moving hair follicles from a donor area (usually the back of the scalp) to the areas affected by hair loss. The two most popular techniques are Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT).

Before the Procedure

Before undergoing a hair transplant, patients go through a detailed consultation. At our clinic, we evaluate your hair density, scalp condition, and discuss your expectations. We also guide you through pre-procedure care like avoiding smoking and certain medications.

During the Procedure

Hair transplants are done under local anesthesia, and the process can take several hours depending on the number of grafts. The procedure is minimally invasive, and you can go home the same day.

After the Procedure

Post-surgery, mild swelling and redness are common but temporary. Within 2-3 weeks, transplanted hair will fall out (a normal part of the process), and new growth begins within 3-4 months. Full results are typically visible after 8–12 months.

Hair transplants are safe, effective, and can dramatically improve your appearance and self-confidence.
