How painful is hair transplant surgery?

In this video, we talked about the question of pain that occurs after hair transplant surgery.

Dana’s technique for reducing pain

In this video, they explained Dana Plastic Surgery’s six efforts to reduce pain after strip hair transplant surgery. Just knowing these points should be very helpful when choosing a hair transplant clinic!

Surgery that considers the condition of the scalp (various surgical methods available)

The first way to reduce pain after hair transplant surgery is to choose a clinic that can perform various hair transplant methods. Unlike in the past, hair transplant technology has advanced greatly these days, and many surgical methods have emerged, such as strip surgery, non-shaven FUE, and no-shave FUE. However, if a clinic insists on only one surgical method, it becomes impossible to perform surgery suited to the patient’s scalp condition, and postoperative side effects (pain) are left to the patient. That is why it is very important whether various surgical methods are available when it comes to postoperative pain.

Diagnosis and surgical methods suited to the patient’s condition are important!

The second method is the “golden ratio design.” The biggest reason pain occurs after strip hair transplant surgery is that when the area cut from the scalp is sutured again, the scalp is pulled tight, which causes pain.

To minimize this problem, Dana Plastic Surgery applies a golden ratio design when removing the scalp strip.

When removing the scalp, even if the area is the same, cutting it narrower and longer may make the surgery more difficult, but it has the advantage of significantly reducing postoperative pain.

The third method is the H-Lase injection.

Increasing scalp elasticity to reduce pain

The H-Lase injection was first introduced by Dana Plastic Surgery. It loosens collagen bonds in the dermis layer, increasing scalp elasticity, and is now a standard injection used by doctors around the world.

In addition, delicate suturing, not excessive hemostasis, and appropriate use of pain relievers can help reduce pain after hair transplant surgery.

Many people want to get a hair transplant, but some hesitate to undergo the procedure itself because they are afraid of the pain that may occur after surgery.

Of course, hair transplant surgery is still surgery, so pain can occur. However, at Dana, research and efforts to minimize it continue, and many people are already satisfied with the results.
