What Is a Hair Transplant?

A hair transplant is a surgical procedure that relocates hair follicles from a donor area, usually the back and sides of the scalp, where hair is genetically resistant to balding, into thinning or balding areas. Because the transplanted follicles keep their original genetic resistance to hair loss, the results are intended to be permanent.

It’s important to understand what a hair transplant is not: it is not a treatment that stops ongoing hair loss elsewhere on the scalp, and it is not a substitute for medical therapy in patients with active, progressive hair loss. It works best for patients with stable donor supply and realistic goals for density and coverage.

Hair Transplant in Lahore at Azar Plast

At Azar Plast, hair transplant surgery in Lahore is performed by Dr. Farhan Gohar, a Consultant Plastic, Reconstructive, and Cleft Surgeon with over 15 years of surgical experience. Every treatment plan starts with an in-person consultation and assessment of your donor density, degree of hair loss, scalp laxity, and goals, because the right technique, graft count, and hairline design differ from patient to patient. The focus throughout is on natural graft placement and a hairline that looks like it belongs on your face, not an obviously “transplanted” look.

Hair Transplant Techniques

Depending on your donor supply, degree of hair loss, and consultation findings, hair transplant can be performed using different approaches:

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction)

Individual follicular units are extracted one at a time from the donor area using a small punch tool, leaving tiny, dot-like scars rather than a linear scar. This is the most widely used and well-established technique.

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)

A strip of donor tissue is removed and dissected into individual grafts under magnification, often allowing a higher graft yield in a single session at the cost of a linear donor scar.

Combination with other procedures

Hair transplant can be planned alongside beard or eyebrow transplantation, or staged into multiple sessions for patients needing higher overall density.

Your surgeon will recommend the right technique for your case at your consultation — not every technique suits every patient or donor area.

The Hair Transplant Procedure, Step by Step

01

Consultation & Planning

our surgeon evaluates your donor density and hair loss pattern, discusses your goals, reviews your medical history, and plans your hairline design and graft count.

02

Anesthesia

Local anesthesia is administered to numb the donor and recipient areas, keeping you comfortable and awake throughout the procedure.

03

Graft Extraction

Individual follicular units are carefully extracted from the donor area using the technique agreed at consultation.

04

Post-Procedure Care

The scalp is cleaned and post-operative instructions are given to protect the newly placed grafts during the critical early healing period.

05

Closure & Compression

The incision is closed and a chin strap or compression garment is fitted to support skin retraction and help the new contour settle.ing early healing.

Procedure length depends on the number of grafts planned — typically 4 to 8 hours, sometimes staged over more than one day for larger sessions.

Is a Hair Transplant Safe?

When performed by a qualified, experienced surgeon in an appropriate surgical facility, hair transplant is a well-established and generally safe procedure. Like any surgery, it carries risks — swelling, temporary numbness, folliculitis, or graft survival that varies by patient — which is why proper patient selection and surgical planning matter more than the marketing claims of any single technique or “record graft count.”

A safety principle worth knowing as you research: donor supply is finite. Over-harvesting the donor area to chase an unrealistic density number can leave visible thinning at the back and sides and compromise future sessions. An experienced surgeon plans graft counts around what your donor area can safely sustain, not around a number you saw advertised elsewhere. This is something Dr. Farhan Gohar will assess and explain clearly for your specific case.

Is a Hair Transplant Painful?

Most patients experience mild discomfort rather than significant pain, managed with prescribed medication in the first few days. Tightness, mild swelling of the forehead, and scalp sensitivity are normal and typically ease within a week to ten days. Because local anesthesia is used, both donor and recipient areas stay numbed through the procedure itself — discomfort is mainly a recovery-phase experience, not a during-surgery one.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Good candidates typically:

The only reliable way to confirm candidacy is an in-person consultation.

RECOVERY JOURNEY

Recovery Timeline

Recovery after a hair transplant varies from person to person. Here's a general guide to what you may expect during the healing process.

FIRST FEW DAYS

Rest & Early Recovery

Rest, sleep with your head elevated as instructed; mild swelling and scalp sensitivity are normal.

02
1-2 WEEKS

Shedding Phase & Return to Routine

Most patients return to normal daily activities; transplanted hairs typically shed in this window, which is a normal and expected part of the process, not a sign of failure.

03
3–4 Months

New Growth Begins

Fine new hair growth starts to appear from the transplanted follicles.

04
9-12 Months

Final Results Develop

Final density and texture settle in fully as growth continues to mature.

FAQ's

A hair transplant is a surgical procedure that moves hair follicles from a donor area resistant to balding into thinning or balding areas, to restore density and a natural hairline.

Hair transplant is a well-established procedure that is generally safe when performed by a qualified, experienced surgeon in a proper surgical setting. As with any surgery, it carries risks, which is why a thorough consultation and scalp assessment are essential before proceeding.

Most patients experience mild discomfort rather than significant pain, which is managed with prescribed medication in the first days after surgery. Tightness and scalp sensitivity are normal and improve over the following week or two.

The procedure involves administering local anesthesia, extracting individual follicular units from the donor area, and placing them into tiny recipient-site incisions designed to match your natural hair growth direction and hairline.

Hair transplant cost in Pakistan depends on the number of grafts needed, the technique used, and whether more than one session is required. Because of this variation, an accurate cost estimate can only be provided after an in-person consultation with Dr. Farhan Gohar.
