Restore More Than Hair — Regain Confidence, Density, and Natural Growth
Hair restoration isn’t just about filling in bare patches; it’s about restoring fullness, self‑esteem, and a natural look that suits your face and lifestyle. At InterClinic Medicine & Surgery Clinic, we offer modern, comprehensive hair restoration services using the latest technologies, surgical and non‑surgical methods, and personalized treatment protocols. With expert diagnosis, proven techniques, and attentive follow‑up care, we help you achieve visible, lasting, and aesthetics‑focused results.
This article covers everything you need to know about hair restoration: causes of hair loss, diagnostic evaluation, treatment options (FUE, FUT, PRP, etc.), after‑care, candidacy, risks, costs, and how to choose the right clinic. Moreover, we highlight what makes InterClinic a trusted provider of hair restoration.
What Causes Hair Loss
Understanding why hair falls is the first step toward effective restoration. Multiple factors contribute, and often more than one is involved.
- Genetics (androgenetic alopecia) is the most common cause, influencing hair thinning in both men and women.
- Hormonal imbalances (for example, DHT sensitivity, thyroid disorders) accelerate shedding and poor regrowth.
- Nutritional deficiencies — low iron, vitamins (like B12, D), protein shortage — harm follicle health.
- Stress, poor sleep, and chronic illness can push hair into telogen (resting) phase prematurely.
- Scalp health matters: chronic inflammation, infection, dandruff, or scalp diseases hinder growth.
- Medications or medical treatments (chemotherapy, harsh drugs) and certain cosmetic practices may cause damage or shock loss.
Because treatment success depends on addressing these root causes, we always begin with a detailed diagnostic evaluation.
Diagnostic & Evaluation Process
To tailor hair restoration treatment effectively, InterClinic uses a thorough diagnostic workflow. This ensures your plan matches both the problem and your health profile.
- Patient History & Interview
We ask about family history, onset of hair thinning, pattern of loss, hair care habits, diet, medical conditions, medications, stress, and previous treatments. - Scalp Examination & Imaging
Physical exam includes checking donor area density, scalp laxity, existing hair quality. Additionally, specialized imaging (magnification, trichoscopy) helps detect miniaturization of follicles and scalp problems. - Laboratory Tests
Blood work to evaluate iron levels, vitamin hormones (thyroid, testosterone, DHT), general health (liver, kidney), and possibly genetic or biochemical markers for hair growth response. - Hair Density & Donor Supply Measurement
We map how many grafts are viable in your donor area, give examples of potential coverage, and project realistic expectations based on your density and scalp condition. - Lifestyle & Nutritional Assessment
Diet, sleep, stress, smoking, supplementation—these consistent factors affect graft take and hair life span. We factor these in when designing your restoration plan.
Through these steps, you receive a personalized plan with full understanding of what can be achieved, how long it may take, and what ongoing support you’ll require.
Treatment Options for Hair Restoration
InterClinic offers several methods to restore hair, each with its own advantages, recovery profiles, and suitability. Many patients benefit most when combining methods.
| Treatment | What It Involves | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) | Individual follicular units are harvested from donor area and implanted in thinning or bald spots. | Minimal scarring; fast recovery; natural‑looking transplanted follicle direction; flexibility in donor placement. | Cost higher per graft; requires good donor supply; gradual visible growth over months. |
| FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation / Strip Method) | A strip of scalp is removed from donor area, dissected into grafts, then implanted. | More grafts in one session; high density achievable; often more cost‑efficient per graft. | Linear scar at donor site; longer recovery; more discomfort initially. |
| PRP (Platelet‑Rich Plasma) Therapy | Autologous platelets are concentrated and injected into scalp to stimulate follicles and healing. | Non‑surgical; minimal downtime; improves graft survival; reduces shedding. | Responses vary; multiple sessions needed; works best in early‑stage or thinning hair. |
| Low‑Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) | Light energy stimulates follicle mitochondria, improving circulation and growth. | Non‑invasive; home‑use devices exist; adjunctive treatment for maintenance. | Slower results; less dramatic than transplants; consistency required. |
| Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) | Pigment is applied to scalp surface to create illusion of density or cover scars. | Immediately visible; good for camouflage; less dependency on donor supply. | Doesn’t grow hair; color matching important; may require maintenance. |
| Regenerative & Adjunct Therapies | Use of stem cell exosomes, growth factors, PRP boosters, nutritional protocols. | Enhances healing; improves scalp health; may accelerate growth. | Experimental levels vary; cost adds up; results depend heavily on baseline health. |
When we plan your restoration, we take account of your donor area, hair density, scalp quality, budget, lifestyle, and long‑term goals.
Why FUE is Often Preferred
Many of our patients choose FUE as the primary surgical method. However, suitability depends on individual anatomy and goals.
- Because FUE extracts individual follicles, scars are dot‑like and less visible, especially for those who prefer shorter hairstyles.
- Recovery tends to be quicker; less postoperative discomfort and easier care.
- Flexibility in harvesting donor hair even from body or beard (in certain cases) if scalp donor supply is limited.
- Natural hairline design and graft orientation are more precise with modern FUE techniques.
- When you combine FUE with regenerative treatments and good nutrition, graft survival improves and results look fuller.
Even so, for some who need very high graft numbers or with limited donor supply, FUT or hybrid methods may be discussed.
Treatment Planning: What to Plan For
Once you become a candidate, planning involves several critical elements.
Firstly, set realistic expectations. Completed transplants won’t show full density for several months; initial shedding (“shock loss”) is normal.
Secondly, decide session size & staging. Large areas may require multiple sessions to avoid overharvesting donor regions.
Thirdly, combine non‑surgical support. Nutritional medicine, lifestyle medicine, topical agents, PRP or regenerative boosters often improve long‑term success.
Fourthly, plan for post‑operative care. Clean scalp care, avoiding strenuous activities, sun protection, and appropriate follow‑ups matter.
Finally, monitor cost vs value. Sometimes premium techniques cost more but offer better long‑term results, less visible scarring, better patient satisfaction.
InterClinic’s Hair Restoration Process
At InterClinic, we optimize every stage to improve results and patient experience.
- Consultation & Assessment
Initial meeting includes medical history, scalp exam, lab tests, donor mapping, imaging. - Treatment Recommendation
We propose a plan suited to you. Perhaps FUE surgery, plus PRP boosters, possibly SMP for aesthetics, plus an optimal nutritional plan. - Surgical Procedure (if selected)
Under sterile conditions, using local anaesthesia, harvesting either via FUE or possibly strip if needed. Grafts are carefully preserved, prepared, and implanted with attention to natural angle and density. - Post‑Op Care & Recovery
Detailed instructions on washing, pain control, avoiding sun exposure. Follow‑ups scheduled at defined intervals (e.g. 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months). - Regenerative & Maintenance Treatment
Maintenance therapy includes topical medications, possibly PRP booster, nutritional medicine to support follicle health, lifestyle adjustments to reduce risk of further hair loss. - Optional Cosmetic Camouflage
If needed, we use micropigmentation or cosmetic shading to mask early visible thinning or scar lines as hair density emerges.
Throughout, we track progress with photos, patient feedback, and medical follow‑ups to ensure both safety and satisfaction.
Candidacy: Who is Ideal for Hair Restoration
Not everyone is a good candidate for surgery, but many may benefit from at least non‑surgical therapy.
Good candidates often have:
- Sufficient donor hair density (back or sides of scalp)
- Realistic expectations about outcome, recovery, cost
- Stable pattern of hair loss (not rapidly progressing)
- Adequate general health; absence of uncontrolled medical conditions such as severe diabetes, heart disease
- Commitment to following post‑op instructions and maintaining lifestyle, nutrition, scalp care
If donor supply is poor, or if scarring is not acceptable, alternatives like SMP, PRP, or hair growth medications might be better suited.
Risks, Side Effects & What to Expect
All procedures have risk, though modern hair restoration has relatively few serious complications when done properly.
- Temporary bleeding, swelling, numbness, or discomfort are common post‑surgery.
- Shock loss of existing hairs is possible but often temporary.
- Infection or folliculitis if aftercare is poor.
- Uneven growth, patchy density, or poor graft take if donor or recipient area conditions are sub‑optimal.
- For certain skin types, risk of hyperpigmentation or scar discoloration.
Because we perform pre‑operative evaluations and follow strict surgical protocols, these risks are minimized. Continuity in aftercare, combined with regenerative and nutritional support, helps ensure optimal healing.
Costs & Investment in Hair Restoration
Hair restoration represents an investment in your appearance and confidence. Costs vary significantly depending on treatment type, graft numbers, technologies used, and ancillary services.
Some factors that influence price:
- Number of grafts or area size
- Whether FUE or FUT method, robotic assistance, or manual extraction
- Additional treatments (PRP, SMP, growth factor injections)
- Clinic reputation, surgeon expertise, geographic location
- Medications, follow‑ups, maintenance care
We offer transparent pricing at InterClinic. Before any procedure, you will receive a detailed breakdown of costs and a consultation to understand return on investment in terms of aesthetic result and longevity.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long until I see hair growth after transplantation?
Usually, new hair starts to grow around 3‑4 months post‑op. Visible improvement at 6‑9 months. Full density and maturation may take 12‑18 months.
Does hair restoration hurt?
With modern techniques, local anaesthesia is used; discomfort during procedure is minimized. Post‑operative pain is manageable with medication and proper care.
Will I have scars?
FUE leaves tiny dot scars which are hard to detect, especially under hair. FUT leaves a linear scar, which may be more visible with short hair. InterClinic plans harvest location carefully to minimize visibility.
Is restoration permanent?
Yes, transplanted hairs (from donor areas resistant to DHT) tend to remain permanent. However, native non‑transplanted hair may continue to thin over time, so maintenance care is often needed.
What non‑surgical options are there?
Non‑surgical treatments include PRP therapy, topical treatments, laser/light therapy, scalp micropigmentation, nutritional support, and lifestyle adjustments.
How do I choose which clinic and surgeon?
Evaluate clinic reputation, surgeon’s experience, patient before/after photos, whether staff conducts diagnostics, safety practices, technology quality, cost transparency, and follow‑up care.
