Improve the density of the scalp in women thanks to a hair transplant
A hair transplant can be an effective solution for women experiencing hair thinning or hair loss, and can improve the density of the scalp. The FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplant technique is commonly used for women to increase the density of hair on the scalp.
During the FUE procedure, individual hair follicles are extracted from a donor area (usually the back or sides of the head) and transplanted to the areas of the scalp that are thinning or balding. The transplanted hair will grow in the treated area, which can improve the density of the scalp.
It’s important to note that the success of the procedure may vary from person to person, and it’s best to have a consultation with a qualified and experienced hair transplant surgeon to determine if it’s the right option for you. The surgeon will evaluate your individual case, and provide you with a personalized treatment plan that takes into account your specific needs and goals.
It’s also important to keep in mind that hair transplants should be considered a long-term investment, and the results will depend on how well you take care of your hair and scalp after the procedure.
It’s important to note that hair thinning in women can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, hormonal changes, medical conditions, and certain medications.
Can I do a hair transplant and an eyebrow transplant at the same time?
It is possible to have a hair transplant and an eyebrow transplant at the same time, but it depends on several factors such as the patient’s overall health, the amount of hair loss and the availability of hair follicles. It’s best to have a consultation with a qualified and experienced hair and eyebrow transplant surgeon to determine if it’s the right option for you.
The hair and eyebrow transplant procedures are both performed using the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) technique, where individual hair follicles are extracted from the donor area and transplanted to the recipient area. Both procedures are performed under local anesthesia and may take several hours to complete.
Combining hair and eyebrow transplant procedures in the same session can be done but it is important to note that it can be more demanding for the patient and the surgeon, and the recovery time may be longer. It’s also important to keep in mind that the procedure can be done separately to minimize the risk of complications and to ensure the best possible results for each procedure.

It’s also important to choose a qualified and experienced surgeon, who will be able to evaluate your case, and provide you with a personalized treatment plan that takes into account your specific needs and goals.
