More About the Hair Transplant Procedure

There are actually a variety of different hair transplant procedures Dr. Doshi can use in his offices. The procedure chosen will depend on your specific body type, the size of the treatment area, and the severity of the hair loss Dr. Doshi will be treating.

FUE Transplant Procedure

Also known as “follicular unit extraction,” the FUE transplant procedure involves the harvesting of hair follicles from one part of the scalp before transplanting them to the area that is experiencing hair loss. A new hairline will be created as each new follicle is transplanted to the new area.

FUT Transplant Procedure

Also known as “follicular unit transplantation,” the FUT transplant procedure is slightly different from the FUE transplant procedure. In an FUT transplant procedure, a much larger number of follicles are removed and transplanted at one. This procedure is generally utilized when a larger area is being treated at once.

Robotic Transplant

The robotic transplant procedure utilizes the follicular unit extraction (or FUE) method, but involves a robotic unit that brings an extra degree of precision to to the table. Image-guided robotic alignment means you get a much more precise hairline, without the need for any linear scarring.

Eyebrow and Beard Transplant

If you’re experiencing any thinning or hair loss on other parts of the face — such as the eyebrows or beard — Dr. Doshi can utilize hair transplant procedures to restore these areas to their former fullness.

Scalp Micropigmentation

Essentially a tattoo procedure that is applied directly to the scalp, micropigmentation gives the appearance of closely-trimmed hair follicles. This is a great way to enhance a hair transplant procedure, or it can even act as a hair transplant alternative, as well.

Dr. Doshi’s state of the art hair transplantation methods include cutting edge robotic transfer, as well as FUT and FUE transplants in Long Island. He will choose the method he feels will give you the most authentic-looking outcome.

What are the limitations after my procedure?

Depending on what method of hair transplantation Dr. Doshi uses, your postoperative instructions will vary. FUT treatment using hair strips will require a longer recovery period, while FUE methods may take less time. Most clients can resume showering and shampooing within 48 hours after treatment. Dr. Doshi will make sure you receive a detailed aftercare plan that outlines what you can and cannot do after hair transplantation.

When can I expect my new hair to start growing in?

In general, it takes 3-5 months for the new hair follicles to begin producing hairs. The average hair growth is about a half inch per month at first, but over time this may increase. After one year, your new hair will have normalized its cycle and it will continue to grow consistently over the long term.
