Hair Transplant: What is a Hair Transplant?
You may already know you’re a perfect candidate for a hair transplant and may even have your surgery date scheduled. But, most patients are still curious about what happens during a hair transplant procedure and what hair transplant techniques are used to achieve best results.
Hair transplant techniques can be very effective for hair loss patients and are a one day out-patient process which requires only local anesthesia.
See a video that illustrates Hair Transplant Stages: "What Happens During and After a Hair Transplant". This timeline goes from 0-2 years later:

Steps in a Hair Transplant Procedure
01. Donor Area Preparation
The patient is prepared for the hair transplant with the hair transplant specialist locating the hair follicles from the head which are genetically resistant to going bald. These are the same follicles which are to be transplanted into balding areas. The donor area of hair is trimmed and prepared for surgery. The donor area of hair is then injected with local anesthesia.
02. Donor Tissue Removed
Next, the donor tissue which has the bald resistant follicles is surgically removed and sutured. Using a special MaxHarvest™ hair transplant technique, the maximum amount of donor tissue is harvested which yeilds the maximum amount of hair for the patient. Hair is combed over the donor area so the sutures aren’t visible to anyone. Approximately seven to ten days after the hair transplant, these sutures are removed.
03. Donor Tissue Trimmed
At this point during the hair transplant, the donor tissue is trimmed and made into micrografts (single hair grafts), follicular unit grafts (grafts containing 2-4 hairs) and multiple follicular unit grafts or Bolton Bundles™(grafts that contain more than one multiple follicular unit - up to 8 hairs) by surgical technicians.
04. Paper cut-Sized Slits are Made
Very small slits are made in the balding area during the hair transplant. These slits are created in irregular patterns, which is what makes the hair transplant so effective and the results so natural.
05. Grafts Placed
At this point, the follicular unit grafts are placed into the tiny slits. These grafts are placed in varying densities, with the smallest one and two hair grafts in the front of the hairline and three or four placed behind them. Multiple follicular unit bundles are placed behind the hairline to give more density.
06. After the hair transplant
After the hair transplant is complete, the patient is fully awake and ready to leave the hair transplant facility. There will be short hair stubble showing from the new grafts and there will be hundreds of tiny slits somewhat visible on the scalp. These slits are typically completely gone within one week, as they heal very quickly

Michael Anticoli, who was my patient advisor, is as knowledgeable as he is helpful. His experience and expertise assessing patients are the main reasons I made the best decisions regarding my hair transplant. I had a hair transplant approximately 18 years ago, and while the results and service were average, Michael's ability to accurately assess... -

Dr Bolton is one of the best in the world when it comes to hair restoration. He moved a massive amount of hair in one procedure from my donor area to my temples and front. I'm 8 months post op and the results are amazing and will keep improving for another year. Don't waste your money in Turkey or Bosley. They can't touch Dr Boltons results in... -

I'm 5 days out from the procedure and I can say the results seem to be fairly solid. Time will tell for sure. Dr. Bolton struck me as very experienced. The rest of the team seemed solid as well. The procedure was pretty quick and mostly painless. The other critical piece to the clinic's model is the patient coordinator, Mike, who has done a great...
