During a female hair transplantation procedure, hair follicles are harvested from areas of the scalp with healthy hair growth, typically from the back or sides of the head (donor areas). These follicles are then carefully transplanted into the areas experiencing hair thinning or baldness (recipient areas) to stimulate new hair growth.

The duration of a hair transplantation procedure for women can vary based on the extent of hair loss and the technique used, such as Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) or Direct Hair Implantation (DHI). The chosen technique involves the extraction of follicular units from the donor areas and their precise transplantation into the recipient areas.

Following the procedure, women may experience minimal discomfort, swelling, or minor redness at the donor and recipient sites. Most individuals can resume regular activities within a few days, and the transplanted hair initially sheds before new hair growth begins. Visible hair growth and increased density typically become noticeable several months after the procedure. Consistent adherence to post-operative care instructions and attending follow-up appointments are crucial for optimal results.
