Hair Transplant

Q: Are hair transplant results permanent?

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.

Q: How long does it take to see new hair growth?

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.

Q: How long does the hair transplant recovery process take?

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.

Q: Is a hair transplant painful?

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.

Q: What should I avoid after a hair transplant?

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.

Q: Will I have visible scars after a hair transplant?

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.

Q: Can women get hair transplants?

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

Q: What are the risks or side effects of a hair transplant?

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.

Q: Is there an age limit for hair transplant surgery?

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.

Q: What are the most common reasons people consider hair transplants?

The most common reason people consider hair transplants is that they are experiencing baldness and/or hair thinning. Many patients are also looking to boost their confidence and achieve permanent results.

What is a Hair Transplant?

A hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure that involves moving hair follicles from areas of the scalp where hair is plentiful, usually the back or sides of the head, to areas where hair is thinning or balding. The two most common techniques are Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), both designed to offer long-term solutions for hair restoration. The transplanted hair follicles grow naturally, blending seamlessly with your existing hair.

What to Expect During a Hair Transplant

Pre-Treatment

Before your procedure, you will meet with one of our specialists during a consultation appointment to discuss your goals and develop a tailored treatment plan.

Treatment

On the day of your hair transplant, you will be given local anesthesia to ensure comfort throughout the procedure. The selected follicles are harvested from donor areas and carefully transplanted to the thinning or balding areas of your scalp. Depending on the number of hair grafts, the procedure can take several hours, and patients typically experience minimal discomfort.

Post-Treatment

After the procedure, you will receive detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and ensure optimal results.

Glowing Patient Reviews

The exceptional, highest quality care, products & technique that has always been experienced at NOVA Concierge is now matched by the dazzling new offices. I can’t say enough positive things about Dr. Zaidi - she is quite simply exactly what the industry has been missing. Her expertise, eye for detail, & genuine warmth put any anxieties to rest. You will be thrilled with your results!

Flew in from Chicago to have this doctor assess and treat my lax and old skin! Dr. Zaidi was most definitely worth the trip! She was so caring, willing to listen so rare to find in a doctor. She gave me all the options and prices before we started anything and wasn't pushy. She took time to understand my face and my needs.

Came here because they just opened up in the same building. I’m so happy, a lot of my clients I sent over also love Dr Z. She is the kindest person I have met and my clients love her so much. She is so knowledgeable on everything and even more. I trust only Dr Z for all my needs. I got some fillers and Botulinum Toxin but I didn’t know what I needed when I went in but she was thorough and explained the anatomy, and why I needed what. She also kept telling me to be real and that miracles don’t happen after one visit. I’ll definitely be back she’s worth it. Also reasonable priced compared to other areas.

After waiting years to find a reputable and quality service for laser hair removal, I was so pleased to have found Dr. Zaidi’s services. She did an amazing job with my treatment. It was painless, clean & efficient. The office ambiance is so eloquent, the equipment is top notch. You really are getting a luxury experience from check in, to check out. Thank you, and can’t wait for my next appt! I highly recommended checking this secret gem out for your medical and/or aesthetic needs.

I’ve been very happy with all the procedures I have received from Dr. Zaidi. She and her staff are professional and super friendly. Dr. Zaidi takes the time to explain everything and doesn’t pressure me to do something she may suggest. The new office is exquisite and I like going there for my visits.

I met Dr. Zaidi through a friend whose recommendations I trust. Never thought I’d be a Botulinum Toxin / filler “girl”, and explained all my concerns about looking unnatural. She understood and reassured me, so I decided to take the plunge. I’m so glad I did! The treatments were exactly what I was looking for, natural but improved. Subtle, yet such a difference!! I wish I had met her years ago. I’ve already referred a friend who loves her and the treatments as well. I’m back for a halo treatment and RF micro needling to address my neck and décolleté area, damaged from decades of sun exposure. I have every confidence in her ability to help me feel more confident about myself.
