Preparing for a hair transplant involves several key steps. First, you’ll have a consultation with your surgeon to discuss your goals, assess your hair loss, and choose the best method. Your medical history will be reviewed, and necessary tests conducted to ensure suitability.
In the weeks before surgery, you may need to avoid smoking, alcohol, and certain medications to promote healing. Pre-operative instructions will include hair washing guidelines and dietary restrictions.
On surgery day, wear comfortable clothes and arrange a ride home. The procedure, done under local anesthesia, typically lasts several hours. Following your surgeon's advice will help ensure a smooth and successful hair transplant.
