What are “healthy grafts” and why are they so important for a successful hair transplant

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a hair transplant, a graft is a small piece of tissue taken from the donor area (usually the back or sides of the scalp) that contains hair follicles. A “healthy graft” means that this follicular unit is:

✅Intact — not damaged during extraction

✅Well-hydrated — kept in optimal conditions outside the body

✅Containing viable follicles — capable of producing new hair

✅Minimally traumatised — handled gently throughout the process

Only living, undamaged follicles will grow new hair. If grafts are compromised, they simply won’t produce hair, no matter how well they’re placed. Considering surgical hair restoration? Book a consultation with one of our experienced doctors today.

Why colder months might suit YOU better for a transplant

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Did you know the cooler months can be ideal for a hair transplant?  Lower temperatures reduce sweating, which helps prevent bacterial build-up and keeps the scalp clean during the initial healing phase. Less sun exposure also minimises UV-related irritation, and supports optimal graft survival. Clinically, hair follicles are more sensitive to heat and inflammation in the first 2–3 weeks post-surgery, so milder conditions can improve recovery outcomes. More questions?
