Hair Transplant Surgery Side Effects

Hair Transplant Surgery Side Effects Should Be Few and Far Between

Hair transplant surgery side effects are extremely rare if you choose a full-time hair surgeon. Hair transplant surgery side effects could include the following:

  • Some minimum discomfort in the donor area the first few nights post op. Some mild pain medication will help.
  • Some forehead swelling could occur day 2 to day 5 post op. This is rare but normal. You can apply ice to the swelled area, but not to the grafts.
  • Some ingrown hairs may occur as the hair transplant begins to grow. Simply apply hot compresses. Do not touch the area with your hands or fingernails
  • A scar will be left in the donor area. If you have a FUE procedure you will have a scar for each and every punch graft the doctor does.

Hair transplant surgery side effects are minimal and simply go away. However, the above does not include side effects which may occur form an inexperienced doctor and staff. Those hair transplant surgery side effects can range from pitting and cobblestones to death.

    Do not hesitate! Josh, Dr. Bolton, and the entire team are exceptionally professional. I flew from Massachusetts for my hair transplant and could not be happier with the results. Just look at the photos. The density is excellent and the outcome looks completely natural. The procedure was absolutely worth it, and I highly recommend contacting Great...

From the initial consultation to the procedure itself, everything was handled professionally and with great attention to detail. The team made me feel comfortable the entire time and clearly knew what they were doing. The work was...

    I had been to several hair transplant surgeons before Dr. Bolton. All were disappointing but Dr. Chambers who tragically died in a plain crash with several of his assistants. He and his assistants were excellent, but my hair didn't look that great and it was unfinished. In one procedure Dr. Bolton showed his sheer genius ob by being far and away...

    My experience with my hair transplants in Dr Bolton's office was easy and efficient. I lived 4 hours away, so I planed to stay locally instead of attempting to drive home after the procedure. That worked out great. I took my pain medicine as described, Got a good nights rest and drove home next day. I don't remember the time line, but the healing...

Our Pricing Philosophy

Please understand that we do not charge by the graft. In our view, pricing hair transplantation this way can be misleading. When a clinic says it is providing “1,000 grafts,” that number alone does not tell you how much hair you are actually receiving. Grafts can contain one, two, or three hairs, and each of those scenarios results in a very different amount of total hair—yet the patient is charged the same simply because the graft count is identical. For this reason, we believe graft-based pricing does not always reflect the true value or outcome of a procedure.

Instead, we have chosen what we believe is a fairer and more transparent approach: pricing based on the amount of donor tissue removed. Our planning is based on averages. The average adult male has approximately 200 hairs per square centimeter in the donor area, though individual hair density varies. Regardless of individual density, patients at the same pricing level receive approximately the same amount of donor tissue extracted, ensuring consistency in what is taken rather than relying on graft numbers that can vary significantly in hair content. While it is not possible to guarantee an exact number of square centimeters removed, we make every effort to come as close as possible to the planned amount—and when feasible, we aim to slightly exceed it rather than fall short.
