A hair transplant is not appropriate for every patient. Alternative treatment or monitoring may be recommended where this better protects your long-term result.

Patient results

Real cases from St Mary's Hair Clinic

Every result is individual. Hair characteristics, donor capacity, treated area and the number of grafts all influence the final outcome.

Recovery and results

Healing first. Growth gradually.

A hair transplant develops over months, not days. Individual progress varies, and your own aftercare schedule should always take priority over general timelines.

Days 1–7

Protect and heal

Follow sleeping, washing, medication and graft-protection instructions carefully.

Weeks 2–4

Early settling

Crusting and redness usually settle; transplanted hairs may begin to shed.

Months 1–3

Resting phase

Visible change may be limited while follicles transition through their cycle.

Months 4–6

Early growth

New growth often becomes increasingly noticeable, although it remains immature.

Months 9–12+

Maturation

Density, texture and appearance continue developing toward the longer-term result.

Timelines are approximate and vary by patient, treated area and clinical factors. Contact the clinic if you have concerns during recovery.

Personal care—not a one-size-fits-all procedure

Every plan should balance the result you want with donor limitations, future hair loss and a natural appearance that remains appropriate over time.

Local patient FAQ

Questions before your consultation

We discuss your hair-loss and medical history, examine the areas of concern and donor region, consider your goals and explain suitable options. If a transplant is appropriate, the proposed approach, provisional graft estimate, recovery and quotation can be discussed.

This depends on the size of the recipient area, desired coverage, hair characteristics, donor capacity and long-term plan. A graft estimate should follow a proper assessment rather than being selected from a standard package.

Shaving requirements vary with the technique, graft number and areas being treated. Your team will explain exactly what is required for your planned procedure during consultation.

The procedure is normally carried out under local anaesthetic. You may feel the administration of anaesthetic and some pressure or movement. Comfort and any concerns should be discussed with the clinical team.

The duration depends on the graft requirement and procedure plan. Hair transplants often occupy much of the day, and your expected schedule will be explained before the appointment.

This varies with your work, procedure and how discreet you want the early healing stage to be. The clinic can advise you individually, particularly if your job involves physical effort, dust, heat, helmets or prolonged sun exposure.

Growth is gradual. Early growth may appear after several months, with density and texture continuing to mature over approximately 9–12 months or longer depending on the treated area and individual factors.

The team may recommend monitoring, medical management or another non-surgical approach depending on the cause and stability of your hair loss. A responsible consultation should identify when surgery is not the best first step.
