The Hair Transplantation Process in Our Clinic

Comprehensive Individual Consultation

The hair transplantation process using the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method is divided into two parts. On the morning of your treatment day, we start by extracting the donor grafts individually from the donor area. These grafts are then temporarily stored in a nutrient solution. After the extraction, you will have a short break to recover, during which the hair roots are prepared for implantation. The implantation procedure may take a few more hours. Both the donor and recipient areas of your scalp are locally anesthetized, ensuring you feel minimal discomfort. The entire procedure, from donor hair extraction to completion, typically takes several hours.

Post-Transplantation Care

After the hair transplantation procedure, we will meet with you again to discuss the success of the operation. During this personal consultation, we will provide you with important tips on how to care for your new hair in the days and weeks following the procedure.

Reasons for Hair Loss

Androgenetic Alopecia in Men and Women

Hair loss, particularly in men, is often hereditary, known as androgenetic alopecia. This condition typically presents as a receding hairline or the formation of bald patches. Fortunately, hair transplantation is an effective solution for this issue. Women can also suffer from androgenetic alopecia, which is considered pathological and can cause significant psychological distress. Hair transplantation can also effectively address this condition in women.

Medications and Hormones

Hair loss can also be caused by allergies, hormonal imbalances, or drug intolerances. Unlike androgenetic alopecia, this type of hair loss is not always permanent, making other treatment methods, such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy, more appropriate in some cases. Hair loss following chemotherapy usually makes hair transplantation inadvisable.

Other Causes

Trauma, infections, and autoimmune disorders can also lead to hair loss. Whether hair transplantation is a viable solution in these cases depends on individual circumstances and must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

How Hair Transplantation Works in Detail

FUE Method

At Traumpraxis Hamburg, we specialize in the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method for hair transplantation. This technique is suitable for treating alopecia in both men and women. Hair follicles are extracted individually from the scalp and prepared for re-implantation. During the re-implantation process, a sapphire blade is used to create precise, v-shaped, angled canals that align the transplanted hair with its natural growth direction. This results in a more natural-looking appearance and potentially denser hair growth.

Hair Transplantation for Men

In men, hair loss is often seen as a natural part of aging. However, early onset hair loss, especially in younger men, can lead to significant psychological distress, as it is often perceived as an unmistakable sign of aging. The FUE method offers an effective solution for correcting a receding hairline.

Hair Transplantation for Women

In women, androgenetic alopecia is considered a pathological condition, leading to significant emotional stress. This is primarily because it not only represents a sign of aging but can also challenge a woman's sense of femininity. Fortunately, the FUE method can often provide excellent results for women as well.

Risks of Hair Transplantation

Hair transplantation is generally a low-risk procedure. The primary medical concern is the risk of infection in the donor or recipient areas of the scalp. At Traumpraxis Hamburg, we perform this procedure with the highest level of professionalism, minimizing these risks. Additionally, we continue to support you after the transplantation to monitor the healing process and address any potential issues, such as skin irritation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about hair transplantation

Here you find our regulations.


In the FUE hair transplantation method, donor grafts are extracted individually. These grafts are then prepared for implantation in a special nutrient solution. The next step involves opening the hair canals in the recipient area using a very fine sapphire blade. The blade's precision allows for dense transplantation of the grafts, and its angled design ensures that the hair grows in a natural direction.


The most common methods include the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction), FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) techniques. FUE is popular for its precision, FUT for its efficiency in larger sessions, and DHI is known for minimizing the time grafts spend outside the body.  

 

A qualified hair transplant surgeon will offer a detailed consultation, conduct comprehensive pre-examinations, and provide clear information about risks and realistic outcomes. Look for experience in hair transplantation, continuous professional development, and a patient- focused approach without unrealistic promises.


 

Complete healing and final results can take several months. However, the transplanted hair follicles typically start growing after a few weeks, with initial results visible as early as three weeks.


  The procedure itself is completed in one day. The total duration, including consultations and recovery, can span several weeks to months. The extent of the treatment, such as filling in receding hairlines versus treating the entire scalp, also affects the time required.

 

It’s crucial to follow your doctor’s instructions closely, especially in the first few weeks. This includes gentle cleaning and care, avoiding strong sunlight, scratching, aggressive shampoos, and styling products. Proper post-treatment care is essential to ensure the transplanted hair takes root and grows naturally.


 

Costs vary depending on the procedure's scope, the clinic’s facilities, and the level of care provided. Prices generally start at around €1,500, but a personalized consultation is necessary to provide an accurate estimate based on individual needs.


 

While donor hair can technically be taken from other body parts, such as the back, chest, or beard, these hairs have a shorter lifespan and are less likely to thrive after transplantation. Therefore, this method is generally not recommended.


 

Hair transplantation is a minimally invasive procedure with a relatively low risk of complications. However, improper care or exposure to irritating substances can delay healing and affect the growth of transplanted follicles. Potential risks include localized bleeding, bruising, sensitivity, wound discharge, scabbing, itching, and swelling. These risks can be minimized by choosing an experienced surgeon and following proper post-operative care.


 

Before the hair transplant, we conduct thorough consultations to determine the cause of hair loss, assess the patient’s suitability for surgery, and discuss the best treatment plan. The procedure, usually completed in one day, involves extracting donor hair from the back or top of the head and implanting it in the desired areas. Following the procedure, it’s crucial to adhere to aftercare instructions to ensure successful healing and optimal results.


 

Yes, hair transplantation is suitable for women and is often used to treat androgenetic alopecia, which can be particularly distressing. The process and success rates are comparable to those in men.


 

Hair loss can result from various factors, including aging, hormonal changes, stress, poor blood circulation, nutritional deficiencies, side effects of medications, mechanical or chemical irritation, excessive alcohol and tobacco consumption, genetic predisposition, and autoimmune diseases. Understanding the cause of hair loss is essential for choosing the appropriate treatment and ensuring the success of hair transplantation.
