Women’s Hair Transplant
Almost one in three women will encounter hair loss in their lifetime, a condition often shrouded in stigma. For many women, losing hair is not just about appearance; it’s about losing a crucial part of what defines them.
Female Hair Loss Specialist
The British Hair Clinic is renowned as the best female hair transplant clinic in the UK. Although the surgical hair loss treatment for women shares similarities with men’s procedures, creating a natural look requires the surgeon to consider key factors unique to females.
Female hair transplants require a completely different approach and planning to achieve the desired aesthetic results.
Female hair transplant surgeons understand how elements such as implant angle, depth, and density must be customised to achieve optimal aesthetic results for women. They are taking into account female hairlines, hair texture, scalp laxity, and the need for diffuse density rather than hairline framing.
We strongly recommend that you opt for a specialised female hair transplant surgeon when considering your transplant.
FAQ’s
A female hair transplant typically costs from £4,000 to £6,000. The number of extracted and implanted follicles determines the procedure’s cost.
Selecting a clinic with a transparent, all-inclusive package is crucial. Ensure it covers aftercare reviews and treatment. Be cautious of clinics charging for surgery alone, often leading to hidden, additional costs.
When performed by an expert surgeon, female hair transplants are as successful as males. Female actresses like Stephanie Davis have undergone amazing hair transplants where over 2000 grafts (4000+hair follicles) were transplanted to lower her hairline.
The surgical process is similar in men and women, so there is no reason why the surgery should be less successful.
During a female hair transplant, a local anaesthetic is used to numb the treatment area, so patients only experience minimal discomfort from the initial injection. Once the anaesthetic takes effect, the rest of the procedure is painless.
In the days after surgery, some soreness may occur where the grafts were transplanted. However, this discomfort is temporary and manageable with prescribed medication. Our team provides post-procedure instructions and medications to make patients comfortable during recovery.
When feasible, we offer women the flexibility of opting for unshaven, partially shaven, or fully shaven FUE hair transplant procedures. However, the donor area at the back of the head (or parts of it) must be trimmed so that hair can be extracted easily.
Our mission is to offer women comprehensive solutions to regain their hair, boost their confidence, and enhance their overall well-being.
Creating natural-looking hairlines requires a great deal of skill in women. Surgeons can achieve this by implanting single hair follicles at the front of the hairline, so it softens the look and implanting double or multiple units at the back of the hairline to add density.
The size of the instruments a surgeon uses plays a key role, as does the angle at which the surgeon makes the incisions. These help determine the natural-looking appearance of hairlines. A good example is Stephanie Davis, who has an amazing, natural-looking female hairline.
