The 2 Best Proven Hair Transplant Procedures

And How To Choose The Right One For You

Whether you’re just beginning to experience the effects of hair loss or you’ve spent years battling a thinning hairline, making the decision to take matters into your own hands and restore your scalp with freshly rejuvenated hair growth is not a choice to be taken lightly.

At the Cavendish Hair Clinic, we know that there are countless hair transplant procedures taking over the marketplace, including a growing number of risky new methods that promise lasting results, but leave your hairline in an even worse state than when you started. 

 

So, how can YOU make an informed decision about the best hair transplant solution for your unique needs?

In this blog post, we’ll be breaking down the 2 most common hair transplant U.K. offerings and their respective pros and cons, so you can begin your journey to natural hair restoration with confidence.

1.) FUE Hair Transplant

Largely considered the industry standard in hair restoration, FUE hair transplants (or Follicular Unit Extraction) involves the removal of healthy hair follicles from various areas around the hairline and implantation into patches where hair growth has decreased.

This procedure was developed as a safe and less invasive alternative to FUT hair transplants (or Follicular Unit Transplant), a potentially dangerous procedure which removes entire strips of skin to restore balding areas.

Unlike FUT, which is NOT recommended by the experts at the Cavendish Hair Clinic, FUE hair transplants benefit patients by giving them minimal recovery time and a reduced likelihood of complications, making it an ideal treatment for hair loss patients of all varieties.

FUE Transplant Pros…

• Pain-free procedure that uses local anesthesia to numb treated areas
• Can be performed over the course of several sessions to ensure maximum results
• NO scarring or lengthy recovery process, as this procedure uses microscopic pins to extract and implant healthy follicles
• Restoration of natural hair growth using the patient’s own samples, designed to last for years to come

FUE Transplant Cons…

• May require multiple sessions depending on the severity of hair loss
• Full results may not be seen for several months upon treatment completion

In other words, FUE hair transplants are the most versatile solution for meeting any and every hair loss need.

2.) PRP Therapy

While other hair transplant procedures require the extraction of hair follicle samples to create lasting results, PRP therapy(or Platelet-Rich Plasma) is an innovative new hair loss solution that uses small blood samples to encourage hair regrowth along areas where hair has thinned. 

While many opt for PRP therapy as a standalone procedure, this offering can also be used in conjunction with FUE or DHI hair transplants to enhance existing results and help patients maintain healthy hair growth over the long term.

PRP Therapy Pros…

• Non-invasive hair loss solution that uses only small vials of blood collected from patients at the beginning of the procedure
• NO extensive anesthesia required, reducing the likelihood of side effects and leaving no scarring behind
• Safely and naturally encourages hair growth just by increasing the blood flow in affected areas
• Can be used as a singular treatment or in addition to other hair transplant procedures to maximize results

PRP Therapy Cons…

• Involves blood sample collection, which may not be ideal for patients wary of needles or with blood pressure related conditions
• Results may vary from patient to patient and may require multiple sessions to achieve desired outcome

The verdict? PRP therapy is rapidly emerging as a reliable alternative treatment for hair loss patients looking to encourage regrowth without intensive procedures.
