Step-by-Step Hair Transplant Procedure
1. Hairline Planning & Design
Hairline design is crucial in Grade 2 baldness. A natural and age-appropriate hairline was carefully planned and marked by the doctor. The frontal area and top region were selected for implantation, while the crown area did not require transplantation.
2. Donor Area Assessment
Using dermoscopy, the donor area was evaluated:
-
Good donor density
-
Thick, black hair
-
Healthy scalp condition
A skin sensitivity test confirmed no allergic reaction to anesthesia.
3. Local Anesthesia
A painless modified block anesthesia technique was used. The patient experienced only mild discomfort similar to a pinprick sensation, after which the procedure was completely pain-free.
4. Slit Making
Slits were created using metal sapphire blades:
-
1.2 mm blade for the hairline
-
1.4 mm blade for other areas
Proper angle, direction, and depth were maintained to ensure natural hair growth and density.

Punch size: 0.8 mm titanium punch
-
Total extraction time: ~100–110 minutes

15–20% single-hair grafts

80% multi-hair grafts (double & triple rooted)
6. Graft Implantation
