Question:
I would like to have hair transplantation with 70 follicles/cubic centimeter. How long it takes to grow? How long I should take a leave? Are you doing the follicular unit transplantation without scaring?
Answer:
It is not a problem, given the state of the art technique I utilize, to place 70 follicles per square cm- which translates into around 35 follicular units (or grafts) per square cm. The length of time to perform the procedure and its cost is dependent upon the total number of grafts transplanted- which likely will range from 1800 to as many as 4000+, depending upon your degree of hair loss. With a Class 3v, typically 2400 to 2800 or so grafts would be indicated, the cost which I will have a Patient Advisor from my office provide you with. Once performed, you can return back home to France as soon as the very next day, and 3 to 4 months later the hairs will start growing in.
