1. What is the difference between FUE and FUT hair transplantation, and which is better? FUE extracts individual follicular units directly from the donor area, leaving small dot scars and allowing shorter hair afterwards. FUT removes a strip of scalp and leaves a single linear scar, but can yield a high graft count in one session. Neither is universally better — the right choice depends on donor density, scalp laxity, how much coverage is needed and how you wear your hair. 2. How many grafts will I need for a receding hairline? It depends on the area to be covered, your existing density and donor supply, not on a standard figure. A receding frontal hairline typically needs fewer grafts than restoring the crown and mid-scalp together. Graft numbers are calculated after examining the donor area under magnification, and any quote given without that examination is guesswork. 3. Can women have hair transplants, and is the procedure different? Yes. Female pattern hair loss is diffuse rather than following the male pattern, so assessment and planning differ significantly, and not every woman is a surgical candidate. Female hairline lowering is a separate procedure that shortens a high forehead. Diagnosis matters more in women, because hair loss can have hormonal, nutritional or autoimmune causes that need treating first. 4. Can a previous hair transplant be corrected? Yes. Corrective hair transplant surgery addresses unnatural hairline design, visible or pluggy grafts, poor density and depleted donor areas from earlier procedures. Revision work is more complex than a first transplant because donor supply is already reduced and scar tissue affects graft survival, so assessment focuses on what can realistically be improved. 5. What non-surgical options exist before considering a transplant? Regenerative therapies including PRP, exosome therapy, growth factor treatment and laser regrowth can slow loss and improve the quality of existing hair. They do not regrow hair in areas that are already bald. The right starting point is a diagnosis, because medical treatment is often the correct first step and some patients do not need surgery at all. 6. How long is recovery, and when will I see results? Most patients return to normal activity within a week and the transplanted hair sheds in the first month, which is expected. New growth generally begins at three to four months, with meaningful density at six to nine months and the final result at twelve to eighteen months. Hair restoration is a slow process by nature. 7. Can hair be transplanted into scar tissue or burn scars? Yes, though scarred skin has a reduced blood supply, so graft survival is lower than in healthy scalp and results usually require staged sessions. Careful assessment of the scar’s thickness and vascularity comes first. This applies to surgical scars, burn scars and scarring from previous transplants. 8. Is beard, moustache or eyebrow transplantation permanent? Yes — the grafts are taken from the scalp donor area and, once established, grow permanently. Because scalp hair retains its original growth characteristics, transplanted beard and eyebrow hair continues to grow and needs regular trimming. Eyebrow work is particularly technical, since each graft must be angled to lie flat.
