PHASE 1:

Design

Dr Alam himself will make sure that he understands your expectations in hairline or crown design by meticulously checking aesthetic measurements over & over again. Before taking you in to theatre, Dr Alam will make sure you are completely satisfied with the design he created with you.

PHASE 2:

Extraction

Our doctor extracts hair follicles from where the hair on the head is the thickest and permanent (known as the donor zone), taking out individual hair grafts one by one. To extract one hair graft, our doctor will make a miniscule ‘punch’, leaving tiny pinholes in the donor area. These tiny marks are barely visible. Quick healing which means less downtime for you is just one of the benefits of HTA’s transplant system. Additionally and only if required, the FUE method can be used to harvest hair follicles (grafts) from other parts of the body such as the chest or legs.

PHASE 3:

Implant hairs

During this phase, your doctor creates tiny holes (or sites), in the area where hair is needed. After creating sites, the surgery team carefully place your follicles into these sites taking care to implant them at a natural-looking angle. Hair Transplant Australia is highly skilled and specialise in performing implantations of hair follicles without damaging them.

PHASE 4:

Day 14 - aftercare

On the day of surgery your hair is shaved short and thoroughly disinfected. There may be many other clinics that do not shave your head as they know it may be a deal breaker for you to book with them. However, here at HTA we do not compromise on infection control.

For us the safety of your investment is our highest priority. Many people are afraid of shaving their hair for surgery, but there is a number of reasons why we ask you to:

• It is an important step for pre operation disinfection.
• It is easier for you to take care of your implanted hair after surgery.
• When we make the little holes for the sites, there is going to be blood. The blood then dries and gets caught in your long hair. When you are trying to later wash your hair you may accidentally dislodge your transplanted grafts during the ‘danger zone’ period. It allows Dr Alam to create the sites closer together, which produces density.
• We shave the back of your head, the ‘donor zone’ to extract the grafts, which will leave you with an uneven looking haircut.
• You can clearly see in this picture that by day 14 Shane Smeltz’s hair has started to grow

You will have our patient care coordinator’s direct mobile number to contact after hours, who has also had a hair transplant to walk you through the entire process.

PHASE 5:

6 months results

Your transplanted hair follicles develop a blood supply within a few days. Your newly transplanted hair will remain in what is called the ‘telogen phase’, a resting period for your hair, after a hair transplant. After three to six months, you will notice hair starting to grow from the transplanted area. The hair will grow around half an inch a month; you will have an adequate length within 12-18 months to style your hair as you please. HTA’s qualified hair transplant doctor, Dr. Alam has been performing FUE hair transplants in Dubai and Australia for many years. Dr Alam has successfully treated many people of different nationalities and from all walks of life.
