Hair Transplant — Assessment & Options

What is Hair Transplant — Assessment & Options?

A hair transplant relocates permanent follicles from the back/sides (donor) to thinning or bald areas (recipient). It replaces hair where it’s gone—not just thins—using FUE (individual grafts) or FUT (strip). We grade your donor, design a masculine hairline, stabilise ongoing loss with medical therapy, and set a long‑term plan. Results rise slowly: early growth from three months, meaningful change from six months, maturity by nine to twelve.

What are the benefits for men?

  • Restores a natural, masculine hairline and frames the face, improving confidence without the obvious, rounded look of overfilled or wrong‑angle work. 
  • Uses your own permanent follicles for durable coverage; we plan conservatively to protect your donor and leave options for future needs. 
  • Integrates prevention and aftercare to reduce shock loss and support graft survival, with honest timelines so you know what to expect at each stage. 
  • One focused procedure can deliver long‑term change; we refine with medical regrowth or PRF later if useful—not as magic, just smart support.

What does the process involve?

  • Consultation & Diagnosis: Confirm pattern hair loss, review history and photos, rule out diffuse or unstable loss that needs medical stabilisation first. 
  • Donor Grading & Design: Assess donor density, hair calibre and scalp laxity; plan a masculine hairline and priority zones that age well. 
  • Technique & Graft Estimate: Discuss FUE vs FUT, pros and scar patterns; estimate graft numbers and set expectations for coverage, not cartoon density. 
  • Pre‑Op Optimisation: Stabilise with medical therapy, align with GP if needed, stop certain meds/supplements, and brief you on washing and logistics. 
  • Procedure Day: Local anaesthetic; FUE extractions or FUT strip, graft preparation, then meticulous placement at correct angle, direction and density. 
  • Aftercare & Timeline: Day 1–7: redness, tiny scabs. Weeks 2–4: shedding phase. Months 3–4: new growth. Months 6–12: thickening and maturation. 
  • Review & Long‑Term Plan: Structured check‑ins, photo tracking, prevention to protect native hair, and optional PRF/exosomes as supportive adjuncts.

The procedure at a glance

Who it suits

Men with true gaps/bald patches and a decent donor; unstable shedders need medical stabilisation first.

Technique options

FUE (punch extractions, dot scars) or FUT (strip, linear scar). Chosen by donor quality, hairstyle and goals.

Anaesthetic

Local anaesthetic; awake throughout with breaks and support.

Discomfort

Low to moderate; pressure and numbness during, tight/sore donor after—managed with simple analgesia.

Downtime

Social downtime 3–7 days; visible redness/scabs settle as instructed. Office work often within a few days.

When results show

Sprouts from 3–4 months; visible change 6 months; full maturation 9–12 months.

Sigma approach

Male‑first design, conservative grafting, donor protection, and expectation‑led planning—no miracle claims, just good work.

Schedule Your Session

Your consultation is the first step toward restoring hair with confidence. During this private session in Dubai, our team will assess your condition, explain the treatment in detail, and determine the number of grafts required. You will receive a personalized plan outlining what to expect before, during, and after your FUE hair transplant.

frequently asked questions

FUE or FUT — which is better?

Neither is universally better. FUE leaves dot scars and suits short hair; FUT preserves donor density with a linear scar hidden in longer hair.

How many grafts do I need?

Depends on area size, hair calibre and donor capacity. We’ll estimate ranges and prioritise zones for the biggest aesthetic win.

Will I lose existing hair (shock loss)?

Temporary shedding can occur near implants. We reduce risk by stabilising medically, gentle placement and staged planning when needed.

Will it look pluggy or fake?

No—angles, direction and micro‑irregularity matter. We design to read natural in real life, not just in clinic lighting.

Do I still need medication afterwards?

Yes if you’re prone to pattern loss. Meds protect native hair so the transplant ages well; we’ll tailor a plan you can stick to.

When can I train or travel?

Light walking quickly; avoid heavy training, saunas and contact sports for two weeks. Flying is fine once aftercare logistics are sorted.

What are the risks?

Infection, poor growth, scarring or unnatural angle are uncommon with good technique and aftercare. We brief you fully and plan conservatively.

Can PRF/exosomes improve take rates?

They’re supportive, not magic. We may use them as adjuncts but rely on fundamentals: skilled placement, good donor and disciplined aftercare.

The Sigma Experience

Consult → Diagnose → Plan → Execute → Maintain

Consult

An honest conversation about your goals, including density, hairline shape, slowing thinning, or exploring transplant options.

Diagnose


A detailed scalp and density assessment, optionally supported by:

  • Blood work
  • Hormone panels
  • Inflammatory markers
  • Photoscans for tracking progress

This reveals the true cause behind thinning and what will work best for you.

Plan

A structured roadmap combining:

  • In-clinic regrowth sessions
  • At-home treatment
  • Hormonal or metabolic support
  • Transplant planning if required

The strategy is tailored to your biology and goals.

Execute

Targeted treatments delivered in the correct order for maximum regrowth, stability and density.

Every step is performance driven, not cosmetic “hope.”

Maintain

A long-term system that protects your gains, because hair results are built through consistency, not sporadic effort.

Join us in the pursuit 
of physical and spiritual excellence.
