Concierge Medicine & Aesthetics

The results of a hair transplant are generally considered permanent, and you can continue to grow hair naturally for years if you continue treatments. That said, the original hair surrounding the transplant area can still fall out, and your age and health can affect how long your results last.

It typically takes 3-6 months before you first start seeing new hair growth after a hair transplant. Full results can take up to a year.

After your treatment, your provider will give you a detailed recovery plan to help you determine how long your hair transplant recovery period will take. On average, initial recovery takes a few weeks.

No, a hair transplant at NOVA Concierge Medicine and Aesthetics is not painful. We will administer local anesthetic prior to your treatment to ensure you’re completely comfortable.

After your hair transplant, you will want to avoid touching or scratching your scalp, sleeping on your stomach or your side, strenuous exercise, sweating, direct sun exposure, alcohol, and smoking. You will also want to stay away from hot showers and baths, hair dye, and wearing tight hats or headwear.

Like any procedure, a hair transplant can leave scars, but your provider will ensure they are inconspicuous and barely visible. Following your aftercare instructions also ensures optimal healing and almost invisible scarring.

Absolutely! Hair transplants are not only for men. Women can receive hair transplants as well and will see just as significant results.

As with any procedure, a hair transplant can come with risks and side effects as well. Some of the side effects you may see include infection, bleeding, discomfort, swelling, and numbness.

There is no strict age limit for hair transplant surgery. That said, people often receive treatment in their 50s, 60s, and 70s, but patients in their 20s and 30s may be good candidates as well.
