Hi, I am facing a hair fall problem for the last 4 years. I am facing this continuous problem of hair falling whenever I wash my hair, due to this the hair density has been reduced and from the front, the hairline has shifted back. How long does the transplant procedure take? How long is the recovery period? What is the success rate of the transplant, in other words, how long does it last before the hair falls out again? What happens to the area where you took the hair follicles from? I had a level 2 baldness.

Answered by Pankaj Kamble

Hello,

  1. As per your question, usually it takes 2 to 4 hours for hair transplant surgery, but the time depends on the technique you choose and the sittings you require for your baldness level.
  2. Most people are able to return to work 2 to 5 days after the surgery.
  3. As far as hair transplant recovery is concerned, within 2 to 3 weeks post surgery the transplanted hair will fall out. But it is a good indication that your body has accepted the transplanted follicles. Most people will see 60% of new hair growth after 6 to 9 months.
  4. Hair transplant success rate is 90%
  5. But this success rate depends on the doctor and the clinic you choose. The more experience the doctor and the clinic technicians have, the better your success rate will be.
  6. The hair follicles that were extracted from the donor area of your head would not grow back. The hair follicles are extracted at certain intervals so that hair in the donor area does not look scanty. For your baldness level 2, you may require 1500 - 2000 grafts or more depending on the baldness area and the type of hair you have. You can read more about hair transplant price, on our blog - Cost of Hair Transplant.

For this, you have to consult the Hair Transplant Surgeon for proper guidance, our page will help with that regard - Hair Transplant in Mumbai. Hope my answer helps you.

Just wanna know something,my upper lip is tanned whole the lower is pink which looks weird,want to know what to do in this situation!!

Male | 18

A tanned upper lip and pink lower lip might seem perplexing, but it’s pretty common. The simplest explanation would be sun exposure since our upper lips are generally more affected by the sun than our lower ones are. To tan less and protect your lips, you should always apply sunscreen before going out into the sun; if you want extra protection, use SPF lip balm as well. Eventually, the colors will even themselves out.

Best sunscreen for oily skin and acne prone skin for teenagers girls

Female | 16

Taking care­ of oily, acne-prone skin is a priority for many tee­nage girls. Sunscreen plays a vital role­ in skin protection. Choose oil-free­ and non-comedogenic sunscree­ns. These won't clog pores or make­ your skin greasy. Look for zinc oxide or titanium dioxide ingre­dients. They are ge­ntle. Sunscreen pre­vents skin damage and premature­ aging. Establish a daily sunscreen habit for healthy skin.

Can you suggest to me the best hair transplant technique? And after my hair transplant surgery will I have to take off from my work for a few days??

Male | 32

The choice of the best hair transplant technique depends on various factors, including your hair loss pattern, donor hair availability, and your preferences. Two common methods are Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). FUT involves removing a strip of the scalp for grafts, leaving a linear scar, while FUE involves individually extracting follicles, leaving minimal scarring. Regarding recovery, it's advisable to take a few days off work after the surgery. The initial recovery period typically involves some swelling, redness, and scabbing around the transplant area.

I am 22 years old and I am facing with eczema on my finger it's kind of a dry itchy and small swellings on that finger and that spreading on other fingers of my hand too I have tried many creams but it helps temporarily and again the condition continues.. what should I do?

Female | 22

When ignored, eczema can cause dry, itchy skin with small bumps that may spread to other fingers. This condition is usually not contagious but uncomfortable. Eczema may be brought about by allergens or irritants present in the environment or stressors at home or the workplace. To manage this kind of problem, always keep the skin moisturized all the time; avoid anything that triggered the outbreak such as harsh detergent soaps among others–instead use mild ones which are readily available over-the-counter (OTC) drugs like hydrocortisone creams can also work effectively if prescribed by doctors specializing in treating diseases related with epidermis.

Stitches on web of hand have opened and now there is pus and earlier a large red mass on stiches

Male | 14

You may have an infection in the stitches on your hand. When pus comes out, it indicates that there is probably bacteria which is causing the infection. This might have occurred if the wound was not kept clean. If there was a large red lump previously, it could have been an abscess. It’s crucial to have this seen by medical professional because, without proper care, things like these can worsen.

Hello.. i am priti.2 day ago cat bite me.but not bleeding only two min. Burning and red dot and morning no dot .what should i do.

Female | 30

From what you are telling me, a cat must have bitten you. And even though it didn't bleed, you saw a burning sensation and a red dot after the event. This is a possible result of bacteria from the cat's mouth. It is important to wash the area with soap and water. Check for any swelling, pain, or redness. If you see anything out of the ordinary, don't hesitate to see a doctor.

Female | 21

It seems as if you may be suffering from severe hair loss. It may as well have been caused by many factors like stress, hormonal changes or a disease. I would suggest visiting a dermatologist, who could examine your scalp and diagnose the reason for hair loss. They can then develop a customized treatment plan for you
