7.	Why is HDC different from other Hair Restoration clinics?


1.	Does the procedure hurt?

Like any other surgical procedure, patients are administered local anaesthetics and other medications before the procedure which eliminate any potential discomfort. We also supply patients with medication to use after the procedure, if and when needed.


2.	For how long does transplanted hair last?

Virtually all transplanted hair lasts a lifetime. Hair that would be lost anyway from the donor area will behave the same when transplanted in the recipient area. So in some cases, a small percentage of this transplanted hair may be lost as the patient ages. This is a natural phenomenon and does not have to do with a weakness in the method, but is a natural phenomenon of aging


3.	Will I need more than one procedure to restore my hair?

The number of procedures necessary to achieve a personally desired goal varies from person to person and the individual degree of hair loss. For higher stages of hair loss a second procedure may be a good option. The first procedure will be performed in such a way so that the patient could decide not to proceed in a second procedure and still have natural results. The possibility of one or more procedures can be discussed on your first visit to the clinic.


4.	Does transplantation cause scarring?

Whenever human skin is cut, it always heals by the process called "fibrosis." That means that there is always some scarring. The issue is how visible will this scarring be. At HDC, hair transplantation procedures are designed to produce a very natural look. In 100% of the cases, the surgical techniques currently used at HDC makes the restored hairline virtually undetectable. For people who want to shave their head the FUE Technique is more advisable as it leaves no visible scarring even in the donor area.


5.	Will it look natural?

Yes, your transplanted hair will look as natural as a natural hairline. These results are achieved by the competence and expertise of our medical staff. Visit our Photo Gallery and see our excellent results for yourselves.


6.	What is the difference between FUE and STRIP techniques?

The most important difference of the STRIP and FUE procedure is the method used for extracting the Follicular Units. Within the FUE process, a specialized punch with less than 1mm diameter is used to extract the Follicular Units from the scalp. This gives us the advantage of extracting single Follicular Units rather than larger groups as in the STRIP method. It is considered to be a non-invasive method of hair restoration, which deters the utilization of scalpel or stitching.


7.	Why is HDC different from other Hair Restoration clinics?
