Why Hair Transplant is becoming popular in Lucknow
While there are numerous reasons behind the growing demand for hair transplant in Lucknow, there are mainly 3 leading factors:
- Rising Hair Loss in Young Adults due to Genetics
- Increase in Work Stress, Pollution and Poor Lifestyle
- Increased Awareness & Availability of Qualified Surgeons.
Amongst all, the genetic hair loss remains a prominent reason, as this is irreversible and progressive in male community. The male pattern baldness has only one permanent solution — a surgical intervention(hair transplant), for treating baldness. Moreover, it’s a one and only solution which is thousand times better compared to temporary cosmetic fixes.
Types of Hair Transplant Procedures Available in Lucknow
There are a number of techniques invented over the years. While some actually represent the genuine names of the established techniques, others are only established procedural terms used by clinics for branding variation and marketing purposes.
However, the two techniques that are prevalent and incorporated in general are – FUE(Follicular Unit Excision) and FUT(Follicular Unit Extraction). In most of the cases the prominence is given to FUE, as this is less invasive. One more technique in the air is, Robotic Hair Transplant, which is still under a developmental phase.
At Rejuvenate Hair Transplant Centre, FUE Hair Transplant technique is preferred over the other techniques. An expert surgeon can guarantee optimal results by strategically planning the hair transplant with FUE Technique.
Cost of Hair Transplant in Lucknow
The Cost of Hair Transplant is a major factor that impacts the decision to undergo the surgery. But at the same time, a lifelong transformation overrides that one time cost. There’s no room for a second opinion that the cost of hair transplant is huge, still it’s worth bearing than spending huge amounts of time, effort and money on other remedies and treatments. Though they can provide a temporary fix to some extent but they are not trusted for hair regrowth on baldness.
The Uttar Pradesh capital, Lucknow, falls under tier 2 group of cities in India. The cost of hair transplant has not yet matched with tier 1 group of cities which is always greater.
Note: The city is not the “ONLY” factor that determines the cost. There are other factors such as, the number of grafts, tools and techniques, experience of the surgeon and more that influence the overall hair transplant cost.
The cost of hair transplant in Lucknow can vary from surgeon to surgeon. It can be anywhere between Rs.25 – Rs.60 per graft. The chart given below will help you determine the estimated cost as per your grade of baldness.
Step-by-Step Hair Transplant Procedure Explained
A hair transplant is a well planned and protocol based procedure. A patient journey from initial consultation to final results is here:
1. Consultation
A successful hair transplant journey starts with finding a good hair transplant doctor for consultation. A detailed one-on-one consultation includes an in-depth hair assessment where transparency plays an important role. This includes:
- Number of hair grafts required as per the grade of baldness
- The final cost of hair transplant including gst
- Honest discussion of expected outcomes
- The roles of surgeon, technician and whole team
- The Techniques: FUE/FUT, and their process
- Donor area quality and density
- Hairline design as per the age and facial symmetry
- Expected timeline for growth
- Medical history or ongoing medications
- Pre & Post-op care and guidelines
- Duration of the procedure
2. Day of Procedure
A consultation is followed by the date of appointment. On this day, the patient is again briefed about the procedure. The hair transplant procedure follows a systematic protocol as outlined below:
- A natural looking hairline is designed and donor zones are marked
- The patient is taken inside OT and local anaesthesia is administered on “to be operated zones”. This is to minimize most of the pain
- Now a surgeon starts creating slits(tiny holes) at a natural angle on the recipient site. This is for the graft placements.
- The surgeon starts extracting the grafts soon after slit creation and simultaneously places them inside those slits.
Note: A surgeon has a choice to implant or not-to implant the grafts simultaneously. At Rejuvenate hair transplant centre in Indore, the grafts are placed in PRP for a while before implantation. This results in faster hair growth, higher success rate and optimal results. This method is termed as PHT(Powered Hair Transplant).
- Saline is sprayed many times throughout the procedure to keep the hair grafts hydrated.
3. Post-op care guidelines
After the procedure, the patient is instructed with a detailed post-op care. This is to ensure a safe healing, new grafts intact properly and no infection. This comprises:
- Medicines which include pain killers, anti allergents, and supplements for non-transplanted hair. While the pain killers and anti allergents are taken for less than 10 days, the supplements are taken for a longer duration to supply an adequate amount of nutrition to existing as well as new hair.
- Sleeping posture for a few days after a hair transplant is to be in a way that no grafts are harmed accidentally. The use of a neck pillow is suggested to avoid any unintentional rubbing or pressure on the operated area.
- Activities to avoid: gyming, swimming, and extraneous exercises for initial days.
- Care of donor and recipient areas
- Management of swelling, redness and discomfort
- Guidelines for wearing caps or helmets
- Restrictions on smoking, and alcohol
- Sun exposure precautions
- Expected healing and shedding phases is explained clearly
- Follow-up visit schedule and communication support
- Emergency contact details in case of any concern
4. Follow Ups and Results
Once a patient is freed from the surgical process and post-op care instructions, timely follow-ups are scheduled to track healing and growth. Until the final results, the patient is kept under observation to ensure the journey is smooth. A timely comparison is scheduled to measure the growth.

FAQs
Q.1 Is hair transplant painful?
Pain during the hair transplant is minimal, that’s too only when local anesthesia is injected on the scalp. Later the whole surgery goes smoothly without any discomfort. After the procedure, painkillers are prescribed by the surgeon to minimize the pain when the effects of anesthesia are subsided.
Q.2 Will the transplanted hair fall again?
The implanted hair follicles are taken from safe zones which are immune to the effects of DHT hormone so they remain permanent when implanted by a highly qualified doctor. Still they will need an adequate amount of nutrition to remain healthy and sustain longer. At Rejuvenate Hair Transplant in Indore, food supplements are prescribed along with PRP sessions to support the health of existing and transplanted hair.
Q.3 Are there any sexual side effects of hair transplant?
Fear of sexual side effects is blocking the way of patients considering hair transplant in Lucknow. The usual side effects observed after the hair transplant include temporary swelling, redness and itching on the scalp. The sexual side effects are reported in less than 2% of the people which are associated with the use of finasteride. However, these side effects are reversible upon stopping the use of finasteride.
Q.4 Is there any headache after hair transplant?
There is no relation of headache with hair transplant. The transplant procedure is done on the surface level of the scalp without affecting the brain or nerves involved in headache.
Q.5 Can I start my work, exercise/gym after hair transplant?
The work after the hair transplant can be resumed the very next day of the procedure provided the work does not include physical labour. The extraneous exercises and gym routine can be continued after a month.
Q.6 Is finasteride mandatory after the hair transplant?
The finasteride is usually prescribed to curb the effects of DHT hormone responsible for male patterned baldness. While the roots of transplanted hair are DHT proof, the existing hair is still under its influence. As the effects of 1mg finasteride remain for 3 days in the blood stream, at Rejuvenate, a dosage of 1 mg finasteride is prescribed twice a week.
Q.7 Will I need to take the medicines permanently?
It is not necessary to take medicines permanently. The medicines are generally prescribed for 6-8 months, but if the hair related concerns recur, they are restarted for maintenance. A hair conscious patient will always consult a doctor, go under blood investigations and take a personalized treatment plan. Periodic PRP therapy also supports hair health.
Q.8 Can I give my chest hair for a hair transplant?
The prominent donors preferred are the back part of the scalp and beard as they closely match to the colour and texture of the recipient hair. However, in exceptions when scalp and beard donors are inadequate to give enough density, chest hair is extracted. Also, if the surgeons agrees with the patients personal choice, then chest hair are taken for implantation on head.
Q.9 Can I wear a cap/helmet after the hair transplant?
During a hair transplant, a surgeon first creates slits and transplants hair grafts into those slits which creates a lot of tiny wounds. The fresh wounds can stick to the cap and the grafts can pull out accidentally upon wearing it off. So avoid using caps in the initial phase. Wearing a loose cap after a few days of hair transplant is advised.
Q.10 Can I travel after the procedure?
You can travel the same day after the procedure. At the Rejuvenate Hair Transplant centre in Indore, most of the patients travel the same day back to Lucknow after the procedure. It needs to ensure the journey is safe.
