FUE hair transplant in Vijayawada

FUE (follicular unit extraction) hair transplant moves individual hair follicles from the back and sides of the scalp to thinning or bald areas, under local anaesthesia. At GIA Clinics in Vijayawada it is done by Dr Sai Santosh, a maxillofacial surgeon with MCHT hair transplant training, after a scalp microscope assessment. Consultations are available at both our Gunadala and Gurunanak Colony clinics.

Is it right for you

Who it suits.

Your first visit answers this properly, with an examination and, where needed, a scan, before you commit to anything.

Usually suits you if

  • Men with pattern hair loss at the hairline or crown
  • Women with thinning in specific areas, after the cause is checked
  • People with enough healthy donor hair at the back and sides
  • Those with stable hair loss who want a long-term option

Tell us first if

  • Your hair loss is recent, sudden or patchy, as it may need medical treatment first
  • You have diabetes, high blood pressure or take blood thinners
  • You have a scalp condition, or tend to form keloids
  • You are under about 25, as hair loss may still be changing

How we plan your transplant

01

Scalp microscope assessment

A close look at hair density, thickness and scalp health shows how active the hair loss is.

Knowing where you stand before planning
02

Donor area and graft planning

The number of grafts is matched to what your back and sides can safely give, keeping some for the future.

Protecting your donor area
03

Hairline design

The hairline is drawn to suit your face shape and age, so it still looks natural as you get older.

Questions

Common questions.

Answers to be checked by the doctor

When will I see results?

Transplanted hair often sheds in the first weeks, which is normal. New growth usually starts around three to four months, with fuller results often by nine to twelve months.

Will the transplanted hair last?

Transplanted hair from the donor area usually keeps growing, but surrounding natural hair can continue to thin. Medicines or PRP may be suggested to protect it.

Will there be a scar?

FUE leaves tiny dot scars in the donor area that are usually hidden by short hair. It does not leave a long linear scar.

When can I return to work?

Many people return to desk work within three to five days. Redness and small scabs usually settle within one to two weeks.
