award winning hair transplants in York
A hair transplant is a surgical procedure that removes bald or thinning areas of the scalp. You may also hear a hair transplant referred to as a “hair restoration” or “hair replacement” procedure.
Our hair transplant procedures remove small grafts of hair from donor areas of the scalp. Also called “donor sites,” these areas of the scalp are located at the back of the head, the nape of the neck, and above the ears. These areas are usually not affected by hair loss caused by certain medical conditions, making the donor sites optimal for obtaining hair grafts for a hair transplant. The hair is removed in small, natural clusters or follicular units that have between 1-4 hairs each. These units are usually 0.75-1mm wide.
As experienced medical professionals, we’re dedicated to a patient focused approach, putting in the effort to discover the perfect solution for your overall physical and emotional well-being.
Once the hair grafts are removed, hair follicles are checked and cleaned under a microscope. This is essential to ensure the success of each follicle. Once they’ve been checked and cleaned, the follicular units are stored in a special holding solution. During this time, the surgeon works to create recipient sites where hair loss is a problem on the scalp.
The surgeon will then transplant the follicular clusters to create a natural-looking hairline. The entire process can take between 4-8 hours, though the time necessary varies, depending on how much scalp area needs to be treated for hair loss.
This is only a general overview of a hair transplant procedure. Your actual procedure may vary slightly, depending on the surgeon’s recommendations.

Hair Transplant York FAQs
Recovery time varies, but most patients can return to work and normal activities within a few days to a week after the procedure. The transplanted hair may fall out within a few weeks, but new growth typically begins within a few months.
The cost of a hair transplant varies depending on factors such as the extent of baldness, the technique used, and the surgeon’s experience. It’s best to schedule a consultation with a qualified surgeon to receive an accurate cost estimate.
Researching online reviews, asking for recommendations from friends or family, and consulting with multiple clinics can help you find a reputable hair transplant clinic in York. Ensure the clinic is staffed by qualified surgeons and has a track record of successful procedures.
Suitable candidates for hair transplants are individuals with male or female pattern baldness, thinning hair, or those who have lost hair due to injury or surgery. A consultation with a qualified surgeon is necessary to determine candidacy.

York Hair Transplants
Surgeon-Led Clinics
Not all hair transplant clinics in York are led by a surgeon. What does this mean? There may be a doctor (surgeon) in charge of the clinic, but they rely on their technicians to do most of the surgical work. You may find this arrangement in hair loss clinics that charge lower prices and/or in international clinics.
On the other hand, our hair loss clinic York (and our other clinics across the UK) are surgeon-led. You can count on the surgeon offering a consultation where they determine the right treatment for your hair loss. Your surgeon will do the surgery backed by their team of technicians. The technicians do not perform the surgery. Your hair transplant will be done by our experienced and knowledgeable surgeon at each clinic.
Holistic Care
As qualified medical practitioners, our care is patient-centred and focused on the best solution for your physical and psychological health.
Aftercare
When you come to our hair loss clinic York , you won’t have to worry about a lack of support. We believe the aftercare of a hair transplant is as important as the procedure itself. We’ll be here to support you each step of the way, before and after surgery, for as long as you need us.
