Hair Transplant Leicester

Although recovery time varies on the individual, you can expect to recover within 5-10 days. The specialists at our hair transplant clinic in Leicester will provide expert aftercare to speed up the healing process. If you choose our DHI hair transplant, recovery will be even faster since no incisions are required.

A hair transplant is designed to be a long-term solution, but the results can vary depending on factors like the technique used, the strength of the donor hair, and how well you care for your scalp and new hair post-procedure. We strongly recommend following a healthy lifestyle and proper hair care routine to maintain your results and prevent further thinning.

Some mild side effects can occur after a hair transplant, including:

• Minor swelling or redness  
• Temporary sensitivity in the treated areas
• Light scabbing as the scalp heals  

These side effects are temporary and will disappear in the days following treatment. Our highly experienced specialists take every precaution to minimise risks and ensure a comfortable recovery. By following the aftercare instructions provided, you can reduce the likelihood of any complications.  

Yes, but don’t worry – this is normal! In the first 2-3 weeks after your transplant, the transplanted hair may shed as part of the natural growth cycle. This is the follicles resetting before new, healthy hair begins to grow. Within 3-4 months, you’ll start to see stronger, thicker regrowth.

After your hair transplant at our clinic in Leicester, the proper aftercare is crucial to achieve the best results. We provide detailed post-procedure guidance, which includes:

• Avoiding direct contact with the transplanted area for the first 6 days  
• Sleeping at a 45-degree angle for the first 3 nights to reduce swelling
• Returning to our clinic for a professional wash using specialist products to protect your new grafts
