Step by step hair implant procedure
1. Trimming donor follicles.
The donor hairs are extracted one by one and later inserted in the hair implant procedure.
2. Follicles removal
After being cut with small incisions, they are removed.
3. Follicles selection
Once removed, it is verified that they are complete and they are passed to selection. It is is one of the most important steps of the hair implant.
4. Manual separation of follicles.
We manually separate the follicles according to the number of hairs for the subsequent sowing of the hair graft. This will give us a more natural end result.

Frequently asked questions
If I have been diagnosed with alopecia, how long should I undergo treatment to correct it?
If alopecia occurs as a result of some organic alteration, such as hypothyroidism, a hormonal disorder or another disease, the management to be carried out is related to the treatment of the underlying pathology. But if it is androgenetic alopecia, which is the most common presentation of alopecia, the treatment must be permanent.
This means that alopecia is not cured but is controlled while the patient is under some treatment modality. If at any time the treatment is suspended, in a short time the patient will begin to notice hair loss again.
What type of medical treatment should I follow after my hair microimplant surgery?
The implanted grafts do not need any supportive medical therapy, but the original hair that is adjacent to the implanted grafts must continue to be treated with some medication to avoid its loss or deterioration. This will be indicated by our specialist.
In which cases is surgical management recommended?
Hair microimplant surgery is used to repopulate areas that are no longer recoverable with medical management, whether it is the scalp, eyebrows, beard or other areas of the body where you want to have hair coverage.
It is also frequently used to camouflage scars on the scalp since there are no hair follicles in the scar tissue that allow spontaneous hair growth.
Es también frecuente su uso para camuflar cicatrices en el cuero cabelludo ya que en el tejido cicatricial no hay folículos pilosos que permitan el crecimiento espontáneo del pelo.
Where do you get the hair follicles that are going to be implanted in the area to be repopulated?
These hair follicles can be obtained from any body area where there is healthy hair, that is, hair that is considered not going to show early fall. For this reason, the occipital region is generally used as a donor, but hair can also be obtained from the thoracic region, the beard, the pubis or the extremities.
