Hair Transplantation is the surgical technique in which hair follicles of the donor area [usually back of the head] are extracted and implanted onto the recipient site. It is a hair replacement treatment for the balding of the head, hair loss of eyebrows, eyelashes, etc.
Beard hair can also be transplanted into bald regions of the scalp to ensure proper hair growth. A beard transplant offers a solution to men suffering from bald patches in their beard and for those aspiring to have a thicker and stylish beard. Eyebrows contribute a vital role in one’s appearance, a damaged thin eyebrows affect one’s confidence and looks. Eyebrow hair transplant can help you have the eyebrows you desire.
But, what causes this hair loss? Is it genetics or your stress or because of the medicines you take? Hair loss can be mild thinning of your hair follicles or baldness or loss of hair patches in one or more areas of the scalp. It can affect the other parts of the body as well.
The most common cause is hereditary whereas in some hormonal changes due to pregnancy, menopause, etc may be the factor. Certain medications like chemotherapy for cancer treatment, and blood-thinners are also shown to cause hair loss.

Hair transplant procedures done
Hair transplant Cost in Bangalore is influenced by the number of hair follicles or graft required, the techniques used, from where the graft is taken as well as on the surgeon performing the procedure.
Hair Transplant Cost Per Hair Graft
The hair transplant cost in India usually ranges from 20-140 per graft. Here, at Venkat Center, we provide transparency in the packages we provide.
Why You Shouldn’t Choose Hair Clinics Based on Cost?

Types of Hair Transplant Procedures in Bangalore
1] Head Hair Transplant
Head hair transplant is the process of moving one’s hair from the donor area to the bald region of the scalp.
2] Beard Hair Transplant
Beard hair transplant harvests hair from other parts of your body and implants into your patchy areas of beard to provide a thicker and better beard. Expertise is needed to graft the follicles in symmetry and proper alignment so that the grafted hair grows in direction of the existing beard.
3] Eyebrow Hair Transplant
Like the rest of the transplants, eyebrow hair also uses the same principle. It’s recommended for people who wish to modify the thickness, length, shape of their eyebrows.
4] Body Hair Transplant
Body hair like chest hair and pubic hair can also be transplanted into the recipient area. It’s usually done when there’s a lack of sufficient hair follicles to fill the bald region.
5] Beard to Head Hair Transplant
Beard is an alternative if enough hair is not available for transplant from the backside of the head. As it is a facial hair, it has better qualities to be considered for a head hair transplant. The hairs of the upper neck are taken for this purpose. This may lead to a tiny white spotting in the area from where hairs are removed and hence it’s usually suggested in light-skinned people.
6] Crown Hair Transplant
It’s also known as the vertex hair transplant. Crown or vertex is the top part of your scalp. Your vertex resembles a whirlpool or likes the spokes of a wheel. Transplanting hair in the crown is very challenging and needs a skillful and aesthetic surgeon. The vertex hair, unlike in the other regions of the scalp grows from different angles. Only an experienced surgeon can put a precise hairline with the right angulation that will mimic the texture of crown hair.
We advise our patients to consider medical treatment first as the growth of the hairs in this region can be activated slightly. Also, if a Crown Hair Transplant is done before the hair loss is under control, it can lead to a bald region surrounding the grafted hair. So, seek the right decision for you from an expert before jumping into a conclusion.
7] Transplant over Scars
Many of us have scars from a burn or a trauma. It may be present in hair growing areas. To cover the scars, a hair transplant can be done over it. However, transplant over scar is quite difficult as the scar tissue has a harder texture with poor blood supply. Multiple graftings may be required. Scar treatment available in Bangalore includes laser therapy, dermal fillers, plastic surgery, etc.

Plastic surgery in Bangalore is also a preferred scar removal treatment. Dr. Aniketh Venkataram is a well-trained and renowned plastic surgeon. Contact us for details on the procedures and treatments.

Hair Transplant Procedures Available at The Venkat Center
A hair transplant is done by removing the graft from the donor region and then implanting it into holes made in the recipient area. The holes or hairline is decided after discussing it with the patient. We offer three main procedures. First, FUE or follicular unit extraction. With the help of modern equipment, the hair graft is pulled out under local anesthesia. Tiny holes made to remove the follicles will heal naturally and often the spots are unnoticeable. There’s no suturing involved.
FUE hair transplant in Bangalore is a popular method to tackle hair loss problems. When performed by an experienced surgeon, the problems of harvesting in excess from the donor site and scarring of the scalp as its consequence can be avoided.
FUT or the Follicular Unit Transplantation is the next method. It’s quite an outdated procedure in Bangalore. It’s because a strip of skin is removed from the donor area instead of the graft. The strip is then dissected under a microscope to obtain the grafts. It is done under local anesthesia and the cut skin is sutured with absorbable suture, leaving a permanent scar. Often, the scar is hidden by the hair that surrounds it. Another remarkable treatment option is PRP or platelet-rich plasma. Platelets contain growth factors that could boost one’s hair regeneration.
is preferred for people who would like to transplant hair to cover the bald area in one visit. The grafts used can range from 4,000 to 8,000.
Hair Transplant for Men
Hair loss is a common problem faced by many men. It can be either hereditary or due to hormonal imbalance. A hair transplant is a very good option to put your worries to rest. Men who would like to groom their beard or mustache in a denser and thicker way with a natural look can make it possible with the help of a hair transplant.
Hair transplantation can be done from head to beard or vice-versa. Beard to head transplant is used when the hair of the scalp is not sufficient to cover the bald area. Hairs of the chest or leg can also be considered as an alternative. Follicular Unit Extraction and Follicular Unit Transplantation are the common techniques used for hair transplants.
Hair Transplant for Women
Hair loss can be very distressing for young women. Hair loss is usually due to underlying hormonal imbalance. It’s required to find the contributing factor to hair loss before planning a hair transplant. Therefore, in women, medical treatment or use of PRP is suggested and tried first. As compared to men, women do not have a permanent donor area, and hair loss is usually spread out into a wider region.
The density of hair can be improved to an extent but is restricted to individuals existing hairline and donor hair available. It takes over a year for the transplanted hair to grow and reach the desired length. Hair transplant in women is a challenging domain but we overcome it with our caliber and proficiency.

Hair Transplant Procedures at the Venkat Center
1] Procedure Before Hair Transplant
The type of donor’s hair, the grafts, and the thickness of hair needed is analyzed. The method of procedure is discussed with the patient. Assessment for hairline design, density, existing hairs, temporal hump, future progression, vascularity, and appropriate use of preformed slits, slit and place and implants in the recipient area.
A simple blood test will be carried prior to your surgery.
2] Precautions before hair transplant
Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption. Avoid spicy and oily food before the procedure. Make sure to tell your doctor about any allergies, medical conditions, and treatment, if any.
Learn more on Precautions
3] Procedures After Hair Transplant
Hair transplant is very minimal and predictable surgery. There is no serious aftermath to worry about. Follow the instructions of your surgeon. Avoid alcohol and smoke. Have a light and healthy diet. Avoid any sort of pressure to your head and do not play with the bandages, if any.
The following day, you will have to remove the bandage. You may take a bath but avoid wetting your head. The nurse will guide you on how to use shampoo for your hair and how to massage your forehead to prevent inflammation.
Retaining moisture is important. Wet your graft for the initial 4 days with clean water for 2-6 times a day. During the first week, make sure that you don’t rub or comb the graft area. Mild rubbing is permissible in the 2nd week. Minoxidil lotion should be applied twice a day.
For the donor area, use T Bact twice daily. Falling off graft may occur, which is usual. Slight swelling can occur in a few people. You may use ice-cubes to bring down the swelling. Some people may notice boils in the graft area after a month or so. It will heal by itself and is not a matter of panic.
The suture can be removed after 10 days of placing the graft. Hair growth starts from the third month but you should remember that a fully-fledged result can take 6-12 months.
Is Hair Transplant Permanent?
Hair transplant is considered a permanent solution for baldness, especially in men. The hair follicles that are healthier are drawn from one’s own body and grafted to the recipient area. This hair continues to grow thus tackling your earlier hair loss issues.
What could be the side effects of Hair Transplant?
Hair transplant is a safe and predictable procedure but like any other surgical intervention, it can also make you susceptible to infections. There’s a chance of scarring especially if a FUT is done. Slight itching and irritation of the scalp may occur. Some people develop boils and swelling which is usual and will resolve on its own. Graft hair may fall off but this is natural.

How Does Hair Transplant Work?
The basic principle of hair transplantation is that of donor dominance – that the occipital area [back and sides of your head] consists of androgen-resistant hairs and are therefore permanent – and they retain this property when transplanted to other areas. Hence, these hairs are retained even after being transplanted and do not fall off.

At The Venkat Center We Perform Immediate Hair Transplantation
One of the major factors for proper outcome in hair transplantation is dryness and dehydration, when the grafts spend time outside the body. The best way to prevent these factors is to minimize the time spent outside the body by putting the grafts into the bald area immediately after taking them out. This is called Immediate Hair Transplantation [IHT].
We at The Venkat Center do this by a special coordinated process as we have a unique team consisting of two Hair Transplant surgeons, Dermatologists and A Plastic Surgeon, which very few clinics have. IHT leads to better survival and faster growth. This is why some of our patients have achieved results in 3-4 months itself.

Frequently asked Questions and their Answers
Presently, there are only two approved medical treatment courses;
- Minoxidil lotions: 2% and 5% – It has to be applied daily twice over the affected area for many years.
- Finasteride 1mg tablets [propecia] – one tablet daily.
Yes. The transplanted hair is removed from back of the scalp [donor site] and transferred to bald site [recipient site]. The transferred tissue is not “rejected” as it is not foreign tissue. The transplanted hair maintains it’s own characteristics; colour, texture, growth rate, and curl, after transplantation and re-growth. The vitality of the grafted follicle is maintained by the rich blood supply to the scalp.
With latest updates in instruments and techniques truly natural results can be achieved by transplanting small grafts very close together. It has been found that hair grows from the scalp in groups of one, two, and three hair follicles – called follicular or hair units. These hair units are transplanted resulting in a denser and more natural result. In the 1970s, large circular grafts containing 15-20 hairs were transplanted, resulting in noticeable and unnatural results. This is not the case anymore.
Typically the grafted hair will shed in the initial 2-4 weeks. New growth will begin in 3-4 months and length will increase approximately 1/2 inch per month. A full cosmetic result can be expected in 9-10 months.
After grafting, the area will appear with small dark brown spots – the grafts, which are only 2-4 mms in length. This will need proper cleaning with water [to which a pinch of salt is added] repeatedly for the first 5 days. Then it appears clean and grafts starting falling off. By the end of the 2nd week, the scalp appears normal. So cap needs to be worn for the first week. Alternately a camouflage powder[ available with us] to hide grafts may be used.

Is hair transplant 100% safe?
What are the risks of hair transplant surgery? Hair transplant surgery is normally safe when performed by a qualified, experienced board- certified plastic surgeon. Still, individuals vary greatly in their physical reactions and healing abilities, and the outcome is never completely predictable.
