Poor results
First things first, root cause of hair loss vary from person to person but the most common reason of pattern baldness both in males and females is the hormone DHT. Transplanted grafts are resistant to this hormone and so it is a permanent solution to your problem.
It is an old adage, ‘good things take time,’ so you have to wait patiently to see the best results that is around 12 months of wait. But we guarantee you that the result is worth the wait.
An excruciatingly painful procedure:
As mentioned earlier that with advancement in every domain of life hair transplant technologies are also advancing, focusing more on the success of process and minimizing the discomfort for the patients. The pain is mitigated by combining different approaches such as using local anesthesia with numbing cremes to make sure the comfort of the client.
This myth has bloomed probably out of the reason that this procedure treats sensitive areas of the body.
It is only for males:
It is a myth that baldness is a phenomenon associated to males. No, that’s not the case, anyone can get affected by this condition since it is caused by a number of factors. So, regardless of the age and gender – anyone can become a victim of this inevitable process of hair loss either partial loss or complete hair loss.
This myth is perpetuated probably because the case studies often focus on men. Nevertheless, women are equally eligibly for this procedure since they also experience hair loss as a result of hormonal imbalance, illness and genetics.
Nearly 50% of women over the age of 65 suffer from female pattern baldness, it can also be something that younger women experience.
And it can be incredibly traumatizing and upsetting for them. The good news is that hair transplants can be a highly effective solution for fuller, thicker hair and the increased confidence that follows.
More Grafts Better the Results:
The procedure is tailored to each individuals’ anatomy and needs. Patients are evaluated for the number of grafts required. So, generally speaking more grafts have nothing to do with better results or with the success of the surgery. It all depends on the expertise, experience and the competence of the surgeon.
Hair transplant is for everyone:
Unfortunately, that is not the case, it is not an option for anyone. Because if someone is suffering from some serious medical condition, he/she is simply precluded from surgery. As it not only posits threats to the health of the client but also the success of the procedure is not guarantee.
Speaking more precisely, this is your Hair Transplant Surgeon who can better evaluate and tell if it’s needed or not.

Anyone, over the age of 18, suffering from the problem of hair loss can go for a hair transplant. In fact, the phenomenon of baldness can start anytime after puberty particularly in males. So, it makes sense to get a hair transplant on time before it’s too late and the condition aggravates. Secondly, getting a transplant early is beneficial in a sense that you have more hair available in the donor area, that ultimately ensures the better success and result of the procedure.
Talked Lot About Myths? Let’s See What Are Some Questions Being Asked By People Before Opting Hair Transplant in Peshawar?
Here we shall answer some most of the commonly anticipated queries about a hair transplant. So, let’s begin one by one;
Will The Results Be Natural Looking?
After the entire procedure comes to an end, the results will be natural looking with minor or no scarring at all in some cases. The results will be natural-looking to an extent that people meeting you for the first time after a hair transplant will have no idea that you have had undergone a hair transplant procedure.
Nonetheless, those around you will be able to notice that you have had a surgery because of the grafts as they are healing.
Also, you need not to worry about the donor site as it is the site that is not likely to attract any attention, especially if you go for an FUE procedure. However, you can expect some scabbing around each follicle at the recipient site that goes down in a week or so.
Will I Have Gorgeous Hair Right After The Surgery?
At the completion of a hair transplant procedure, the grafts will be in place giving you a good idea what your new hairline will ultimately look like.
However, it is common that the newly implanted hair fall out and shed with two weeks after the surgery. But it is absolutely a normal step in this procedure that paves the way for new hairs to grow in their place naturally. Once these hairs have grown, the follicles will be in the normal cycle of shedding and growing, so any future loss will not be noticeable in the same way.
Therefore, whilst you will get an idea of what your hairline will look like in the end, it will not be an instantaneous process. Hair grows at the rate of 1cm per month so you need a lot of patience and have to wait for several months before you get the optimum results.
Does Transplanted Hair Look Weird Or Different?
It is absolutely a big NO! because your own hair follicles are used for this procedure so there is nothing to worry about in this regard i.e worrying about hairs from a donor looking weird and different to your own.
Each square centimeter of hair contains tens of follicles and each follicle holds approximately 1 to 4 hair. The follicles are then removed from those sites on your scalp that are scarcely noticeable and are implanted into the host site. The hair that grow at the host sites after receiving the treatment will be your own hair and will ultimately look natural and will definitely match the rest of your head.
Are There Any Side Effects With A Hair Transplant?
