Prior to Hair Transplantation
- The client initially consults with Dr. Sreekar Harinatha to plan the procedure.
- During the consultation, the different methods of the best hair transplant treatments are explained, and the most suitable one is selected for the individual.
- The priority areas of baldness are discussed, and a final treatment plan is determined.
- The medical and medication history is reviewed, and any necessary changes are made.
- Pre-shave photographs are taken and further discussed
- Pre-transplant blood tests and any medical tests as required are done
Two days before Hair Transplantation
- The individual can choose to either fully shave his head two days before the procedure or do a zero trim one day before.
- Prior shaving helps in better cleaning and washing of the scalp to avoid any minor chances of minor infections
- In some cases, the shaving is done only on the day of the procedure
- In special cases, shaving is not done at all. That is called non-shave hair transplantation and it has its own pros and cons.
On the day of HT
- The client typically arrives at the clinic around 8 am after having a good breakfast.
- As the entire procedure is conducted under local anesthesia, there is no requirement to arrive on an empty stomach.
- The client is shown into the suite and then he/she fills up medical forms, goes through the consent forms, and signs them. During this, he/she can clear doubts with the Hair Transplant Surgeon and the team
- Next, the transplant plan is reviewed and ultimately confirmed through discussion.
- Then markings are done for the donor and recipient areas and again pictures are taken and discussed.
- Once all the doubts are clarified and markings finalized, the client is taken to the Best hair transplant treatment theatre.
- Once the introductions are done, the client lies down on the HT table and the area is sterilized and prepped for the procedure
- An intravenous cannula is placed on the hand for injections and monitors are attached
- Then sterile disposable sheets are used to drape the areas.
- Next, the donor site is anesthetized using a mixture of anesthetics. very tiny injections are used to minimize discomfort
- The graft harvesting begins. It can take 2-3 hours depending on factors like the direction of grafts, the number of grafts needed, etc. We use very small micromotors and titanium punches for better results and to avoid graft injury
- The harvested grafts are placed in cold saline and debris is removed and the number counted
- Once the harvesting is done, a dressing is placed over the donor site and the client takes a break for a well-dersrved lunch or snack with beverages.
- The HT resumes after the break by anesthetizing the recipient areas. The procedure is similar to the donor site anesthesia
- Next micro sluts are done in the recipient areas according to the direction and density that is planned.
- These incisions facilitate the insertion of the grafts later on.
- Once slits are done, the grafts are placed in the accurate and appropriate direction according to the area being transplanted to achieve a natural result
- Sometimes the client may opt for another snack or restroom break during the process.
- Once the appropriate grafts and direction of implantation are achieved, PRP is done over the scalp to further augment the growth of grafts.
- Then a dressing is done and this marks the end of hair transplantation
- Then the client goes back to the suite to recover for some time and have another snack
- Then once the client feels good, the post HT instructions are explained in detail and final IV medications given
- Then the client is discharged home with an attendee.
