Treatments at My Hair UK Clinics in London and Manchester
At My Hair UK, we provide advanced hair restoration treatments in our London and Manchester clinics, focusing on delivering the best possible outcomes for our patients. We specialise in Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplants, a minimally invasive technique that has become the gold standard in hair restoration. This treatment offers patients a natural, long-lasting solution to hair loss, and our skilled team of medical professionals is dedicated to ensuring each patient receives personalised care throughout their journey.
The FUE Hair Transplant Process at My Hair UK
The FUE method involves extracting individual hair follicles from a donor area, typically at the back of the head, and implanting them into the thinning or balding areas. The precision of this technique allows for a seamless, undetectable result. At My Hair UK, our surgeons are highly experienced in FUE procedures, using advanced tools and techniques to ensure optimal graft survival and minimal scarring. The procedure is carried out under local anaesthesia, meaning patients are awake throughout but experience minimal discomfort.
One of the key benefits of FUE is its ability to target areas of thinning with high precision. Unlike other methods, FUE leaves no linear scar, allowing patients to wear their hair short without visible signs of the procedure. After the procedure, patients can typically return to normal activities within a few days, although we recommend avoiding strenuous activities for a few weeks to ensure the grafts settle properly.
In addition to FUE, My Hair UK also offers Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections, a treatment designed to support and enhance the hair growth process. PRP therapy involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then re-injecting it into the scalp. This treatment stimulates hair follicles, encouraging growth and improving the quality of existing hair. PRP therapy can be a standalone treatment or used in conjunction with a hair transplant to further improve results.
Hair Transplant Costs at My Hair UK
The typical hair transplant cost at My Hair UK varies based on the number of grafts required, the complexity of the procedure, and the location of the clinic. Typically, the price for a FUE hair transplant ranges from £3,000 to £10,000, depending on the size of the treatment area. It is important to note that while the initial cost may seem significant, the results of a hair transplant are long-lasting, making it a worthwhile investment for many patients.
At My Hair UK, we provide detailed consultations, where we assess the patient’s hair loss pattern, donor area, and desired outcome to offer a personalised treatment plan and cost estimate. During the consultation, we also discuss financing options, ensuring that the cost does not become a barrier to receiving the treatment. Our clinic is committed to transparent pricing with no hidden fees, ensuring that patients are fully informed of all costs involved.
It is essential to consider the long-term value of a hair transplant, as the results can last a lifetime with proper care. When comparing the costs of hair transplant procedures across different clinics, it’s crucial to ensure that you are receiving a high level of expertise and post-operative care. Opting for a cheaper treatment may result in suboptimal outcomes or additional costs down the line, so it is worth investing in a reputable clinic like My Hair UK, where quality care and results are guaranteed.
Post-Operative Care and Support
After undergoing a hair transplant, the care and attention you receive post-operatively are crucial for ensuring the best results. At My Hair UK, we provide a comprehensive aftercare programme, which includes detailed instructions on how to care for your scalp, what to expect in the recovery process, and when to schedule follow-up appointments. Our dedicated patient platform allows you to access instructional videos on pre-op preparation and post-op aftercare, as well as a FAQ section to address any concerns that may arise during the healing process.
Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor the progress of hair growth and to make sure the transplanted follicles are settling properly. During these visits, we also assess the health of the scalp and provide any additional treatments, such as PRP therapy, if needed to further stimulate hair growth.
Patients typically notice the results of their hair transplant within 6 to 12 months, as the transplanted follicles go through a shedding phase before new hair growth begins. Over time, the hair thickens and becomes more natural in appearance. The success of the transplant relies heavily on following aftercare instructions and attending follow-up visits, which is why we place such a strong emphasis on ongoing support at My Hair UK.
