2). Facial Transplant: This type of hair transplant is done to grow or restructure hair on face either at eyebrow, eyelash, moustache or beard. Facial hair transplant is further categorized and named after where the hair transplant is done. In this procedure as well the grafts are transplanted under local anesthesia. This procedure needs very less grafts, so the patient can leave the clinic on same day after the procedure is complete. Once the procedure is done successfully, you can have a desired facial hair growth that you can shave or trim according to your need. Though there is no side effect in facial hair transplant, in some rare cases, the patient can get little swelling, but temporarily.

3). Beard Transplant: Beard restoration is a form of facial hair transplant. For this procedure, our surgeons/dermatologists use to take dynamic hair joins (HGs) that contain one to four follicles. Body hairs on chest, arms, shoulders, etc. may be considered for the surgery if given parts of the head and whiskers are not accessible. After the grafts are taken from the benefactor range, they are re-embedded in the facial regions where required. Beard transplant procedure can be done within a few hours and men can get back to their healthy lifestyle. But, the growth of the beard will start gradually. Once your facial hair starts growing, you can start making different beard styles.

4). Moustache Transplant: Less growth on the moustache/beard can disturb most of the men; as they desire to have substantial facial hair growth. Therefore, to get rid of this embarrassment, going for a moustache transplant is recommended. This procedure is commonly performed in the moustache area of males. Moustache hair transplant procedure is done by the FUE technique. In this process, our surgeons used to fill the moustache area with follicles that yield natural growth after a specific time. The hair follicles are usually taken out from thick hair developing parts of the body. To cover the baldness, minimum 350-500 hair grafts are required. But, the count of grafts depends on the thickness you desire. The entire procedure is done under local anesthesia in 3-4 hrs periods depending on the number of grafts. No special post op rest or stay is required. Mild swelling and redness will be cleared in 2-3 days. In this way, you can get natural & dense hair growth to give your moustache a desired shape..

5). Eyebrow Transplant: Active eyebrows can outline an eye to make it look additionally appealing truly. If you don’t have enough hairs on the eyebrows, then eyebrow implant can prove lucrative for you. The procedure takes 4-7 hours to perform and is done completely under local anesthetic. We usually place between 200-400 grafts per eyebrow. We place the grafts in one eyebrow and then discuss it with the patient, and continue to modify until the patient is satisfied. We then do the same on the second eyebrow and then do back to the first eyebrow to modify again if necessary. It does not matter to us how much time it takes, we are not done until the patient is satisfied with the final result.

6). Eyelash Transplant: Eyelash transplant surgery is another method used to improve the appearance of sparse lashes. Unlike lifts and extensions, this procedure offers more permanent results, if performed correctly by a board-certified surgeon. Eyelash transplant surgery involves moving hair from one part of the body (usually the back of the head) to the eyelash area (upper or lower eyelid),” The process typically involves removing a section of hair from the patient, typically from the back of the head, and grafting the hair to the eyelids, replacing the existing eyelashes. The procedure typically involves 60 to 70 hairs per eye, and after removal and a thorough cleaning of the oil on the hair, they are reattached to patient by delicately sewing the lashes back on. Maintenance of the eyelashes is needed thereafter, as the hair continues to grow at the same rate as on other parts of the body. Eyelash transplantation is performed on outpatient basis under local anesthesia and takes two to three hours to complete.

7). Body Hair transplant: In this type of hair transplant, the hair at any part of the body other than the back of the head is used to treat the baldness. This technique makes possible the transplantation of hair from other parts of the body to cure head hair loss. It’s a boon for those who have grade 7 or grade 8 type of hair loss since in grade 7 or grade 8 the hair which can be used as donor hair are very less or head have a scarcity of donor hair. At this condition, only option left is to use body hair as donor hair to transplant at the head. Body follicles become a substitute for the follicles at the back of the head. Generally, beard hair, chest hair, the hair at pubic area, and hair of hand and legs are used as a source of donor follicles to fulfill the baldness.

8). Women Hair transplant: Hair has a more significant place in the life of women than men. Hair loss in women is not only a cosmetic problem it affects them psychologically very severely. The advanced technique of hair transplant is helping them as well in restoring hair loss.

Advances in hair transplantation have made possible the successful hair restoration of female alopecia that was not likely to treat with earlier techniques. Eyebrow, and in some cases the eyelash hair is also restored using this method in women.

At times patients are satisfied with initial result but yet need to build overall density also choose it. With the advancement in the instruments and overall technique, there is an increasing demand for the revision procedures. In some cases people tell the story of how they were cheated on the name of unlimited hair grafts offer. There many more reason which is influencing the rising number of people demanding for a revision hair transplant procedures through Strip (FUT) or FUE technique.
