Depending on the size of the area to be treated and the number of grafts that need to be transplanted, FUE can take between 4 and 8 hours.

You can expect to start seeing the new hairs grow approximately 4-6 months after the treatment. This hair growth will continue to thicken over the first 10 to 15 months. As time passes, the hair will continue to grow in the same way as the hair in the donor area, thus creating a fuller, thicker head of hair.

Hair loss is not just a cosmetic problem, but it can affect your self-esteem and relationships. It also affects your social life, work life and overall quality of life. In addition to the physical pain of losing hair from the top of your head or from other parts of your body (like eyebrows), there are many psychological effects that come along with having thinning hair.

The recovery period of a woman’s hair transplant depends on the number of transplants you’ve done. The first two days after your surgery are considered to be “the burn phase,” which is when your body is healing from the trauma of having large amounts of tissue removed from its own body. Within this timeframe, you may experience some swelling and bruising around your incisions; however, this should settle out within a few days’ time. After that initial stage (and for up to three weeks), it’s important not to sit still or sleep more than usual as this can cause further damage to your head area and lead to pain later on in your recovery process. You should also avoid exercise or heavy lifting until all swelling has subsided completely—this means no running marathons just yet! During this time frame also expect some discomfort due to being unable to take care of yourself properly so try to take advantage whenever possible by curling up in your blanket with some good books or a TV show.
