Hair growth cycle after FUE Hair Transplantation

With modern techniques, a Hair Transplant procedure can be in as little as a day. But, for most of our patients, it’s not the treatment itself that’s the hard part…it’s waiting for the results .

Before, immediately after and final results by The Private Clinic

After a FUE Hair Transplant treatment you’ll be able to see your new hair line immediately, but it will take a little while longer for you to reap the benefits of your final results. Everyone’s hair is different, meaning the exact process you’ll go through to see your results, will vary massively from everyone else.

Your hair will still grow at its normal rate so it’s crucial to remember that undergoing a transplant treatment will not change this and there’s no magic button to speed up the frustrating process.

Our Surgeons at The Private Clinic are experts in hair growth and will be able to explain the process to you in detail and we are available 24/7 should you have any concerns about your hair growth during your recovery period.

What is your hair growth cycle?

To understand how your hair might grow after a, you need to first of all understand your hair growth cycle and how, exactly, each strand grows.

A hair’s active growth period is known as the anagen phase. This is where cells in the follicle’s bulb (the place where growth occurs) rapidly divide, causing the hair to grow an average of 1cm every four weeks. When your hair is healthy and not experiencing thinning, 90% of it will be in this phase at any one time where it will remain for around 2-7 years.

After its active growth period, hair will then enter the catagen phase (a transitional period where growth begins to stop), followed by the telogen phase in which your hair is released and falls out. occurs when this cycle is disrupted, meaning hairs spend less time in the anagen phase.

Will my hair growth cycle change after a hair transplant?

After a Hair Transplant, your hair will continue this exact cycle – meaning it will grow at the same rate it did prior to being transplanted.  Most patients will find they shed some of the newly transplanted hairs a few weeks after treatment, which is completely normal and nothing to worry about. This is usually due to the follicle being starved of its blood supply for a brief period. The follicle and graft will still be intact, and most patients tend to notice new hair growing around 3-4 months after any loss has occurred.

Your new hair line will be visible immediately, but the final results won’t be visible until the hair has regrown fully a few months after treatment.

When will I see results after Hair Transplant Surgery?

The time until your final outcome shows will be entirely individual. It is important to remember that hairs are asynchronous which means they grow out of sync with one and will always be in different stages at any one time, meaning there’ll be no huge rush of hair.

Results can begin to show themselves as early as four to six weeks after the treatment, but your final result won’t be noticeable until at least five to six months after. Some patients will take as much as 18 months, depending on their hair, to see the results they were striving for.

While it can feel frustrating, key to making sure everything is coming along as it should is staying in close contact with your clinic and surgeon. They should explain to you what to expect from your recovery and HydraBack (Back Facial) (https://us.allies.shop/) invite you to post-procedure check ups to make sure is coming along as intended.

As an (extremely rough) timeline, you might expect:

You’ll usually be asked to wash your hair extremely gently to get rid of any blood remaining and you should normally expect some soreness, numbness and oozing from the recipient area.

You may feel tenderness in the donor area and tightness in the area treated. It is recommended that you remain sleeping upright and continue to spray the transplanted area at regular intervals.

After 5 days, you can gently wash your hair using warm water and mild shampoo (e.g baby shampoo).

Any swelling or redness should now have reduced. Scabbing may still be present but will begin to subside.

By the tenth day after treatment your transplanted hair grafts should be firmly in place, meaning any residual crusting can be gently rubbed off. You may also notice the transplanted hairs beginning to shed – this is completely normal. You can return to your usual shampoo, brushing and combing regime and can get a hair cut if you wish.

Transplanted hair will often to shed during this period, and you may look very similar to your pre-procedure self.

The transplanted hair will begin to grow again, normally more fine than usual but it will begin to get thicker as the months go on.

Your hair will continue to grow and thicken during this time, often undergoing texture changes. Most patients will begin to see something that resembles their final result during this period.

Watch patient Douglas McAdams talk about his results 6 months after treatment:

Your final results will be visible. Some patients can take up to 18 months to notice the real changes they wanted, and hair may continue to change after this.

It’s a cliché, but patience is a virtue when it comes to hair transplantation. While the treatment only takes a day, the one thing the skill of a surgeon can’t change is how quickly results will show through, meaning you should expect to wait several months until you see the final outcome. We can’t change how quickly your hair grows, but we can be there with you every step of the way to ensure you’re informed, happy and confident you’ll achieve precisely what we promised.
