The Private Clinic’s Hair Transplant and Hair Restoration surgeons have extensive experience in treating Male Pattern Baldness with the minimally-invasive, no linea scar, no stitch technique known as FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Hair Transplantation.

Our Hair Transplant doctors have been perfecting their technique since 2008 and are known worldwide for their expert results and reputation. The proof lies in our before and after photos and videos. Outstanding results and peace of mind. We ensure that your procedure and pre and post operative care is thorough with our tried and tested methods to ensure success.

Why is my hair thinning and falling out? The Hair Loss Problem

Up to 50% of men will have experienced some degree of hair loss by the time they reach 50. And for many, hair loss will occur earlier in their 20s, 30s or even late teens.

The main cause for 95% men experiencing a thinning scalp is something called Androgenetic Alopecia – more commonly referred to as Male Pattern Baldness. The hereditary condition occurs when a male hormone causes certain hair follicles to shrink and produce abnormal hair with a shorter life.

In Male Pattern Baldness, patients typically see hair loss starting in the crown, followed by thinning around the hairline and temples, before the mid-anterior scalp is affected. This can be different depending to each individual. Other causes of hair loss in men could include stress, disease, and physical reactions to medication. Hair loss can impact on your confidence. A consultation can help establish what phase you are in and we are here to find a solution.

Can a Trichologist help my hair loss?

You can seek advice from a Trichologist if you are losing hair in its early stages, however for balding areas, a hair transplant is the best solution. The Private Clinic have many years of experience in our specialised FUE technique. All our clinics have CQC registered medical facilities to give you the hair and look you are after. Read about The Private Clinic here. Our reputation is such that we do not take short cuts, we will only give you honest advice with the results you are looking for.

What are the benefits of an FUE at our recognised clinics?

Our Hair Transplant surgeons have perfected their FUE hair implant techniques. Our advantages are to:

  1. Give you a natural looking and densely packed hair
  2. Implanting the hair in the direction your hair grows
  3. Our experienced doctors perform a modified FUE method; making very small entry points into the scalp
  4. We do not used a motorised robot FUE, this is too rough and does not yield the best hair transplant results
  5. Our Hair Transplant team ensure that the donor area looks intact after the hair transplant procedure
  6. Our FUE technique ensures you can even keep your hair really short if you prefer without any obvious scarring.

For Hair Transplant results, see our extensive hair transplant before and after photos and videos which cover the hairline, frontal area, temples, midscalp anterior, midscalp vertex, the crown and information on number of grafts.

The Private Clinic has been treating patients for over 35 years, we pride ourselves on our results, service and aftercare, see our 5 star Trust Pilot rating, we have the highest rating in the industry.

What to Expect

The Private Clinic has been treating patients for over 35 years with thousands of people placing their trust in us each year. We pride ourselves on being able to offer a personalised service. We have a team of friendly nurses and expert surgeons who understand the importance of this decision and will support you throughout your journey with us.

  • Why Choose Us?

The Consultation

Your first step on your hair transplant journey is to have a consultation with one of our patient coordinators. This consultation will take place over the phone and the purpose of this initial consultation is to:

  • Find out which procedure you are interested in and to determine your suitability.
  • Advise you of any alternative treatments or products specific to your needs.
  • Answer questions you might have regarding the procedure.
  • Answer questions about your visit to the clinic.
  • Answer questions about the steps involved in your hair transplant or hair loss journey.
  • If deemed suitable and you indicate your wish to proceed your coordinator will then forward your personal and medical details to your Hair Transplant surgeon, along with any clinical queries, in time for the next step of your journey.

Your second consultation will then take place with one of our expert Hair Transplant Surgeons. Your surgeon will listen to your concerns regarding your hair loss and review your medical history. They will then perform a hair analysis to help them establish your suitability for a FUE Hair Transplant procedure.

The surgeon will then discuss:

  • The best options suited to you.
  • Risks and complications.
  • Your expectations from FUE Hair Transplant surgery.
  • What will happen on the day of the procedure.
  • Recovery and aftercare.

If your hair transplant surgeon feels you are a good candidate for surgery, you will be invited to consider progressing to treatment. You will have a minimum 2 week cooling off period in which to decide. You will be allocated a dedicated patient coordinator who will be your point of contact should you wish to go ahead with the procedure

How is a Hair Transplant done?

FUE Hair Transplant surgery will take place in the clinic where you had your consultation in our state-of-the-art theatres.

Your procedure:

  • You will be prepped ready for surgery which usually involves shaving the head and washing the hair unless you are having an unshaven FUE.
  • You will be positioned lying face down on the couch and local anaesthetic and tumescent solutions will be injected into the scalp by the surgeon.
  • The extraction will then start with the surgeon using a specialised punch device, ranging in diameter from 0.6mm – 0.9mm, to extract follicular units complete with necessary glands. This separates surrounding tissue from the unit, meaning minimum trauma and better results.
  • The grafts from the donor area will be transferred to trays, and classified as a single hair, two hairs and three or more hair grafts and recorded.
  • Once the extraction is complete, the procedure will break for lunch where you will be able to have a light lunch.
  • You will return to the couch this time facing upright so the surgeon can access the areas that are being treated.
  • Further local anaesthetic and tumescent solution will need to be injected into these areas before small slits are made to hold the newly transplanted hair.
  • The implantation of the hair follicles is performed under a high-powered microscope using specially designed instruments, allowing the Hair Transplant doctor to work with the upmost precision for natural-looking, virtually undetectable results. Transplantation of all the vital elements of each hair follicle means a better survival rate and better growth.
  • Once the procedure is complete the areas treated will have bandages applied and the surgeon will go through the recovery process and provide you with post-operative instructions to follow at home.

When the clinic team are happy that you are feeling well and safe to return home, we will discharge you from the clinic to recover.

In most cases an FUE Hair Transplant procedure is performed over the course of a day taking 6-8 hours, however if a large number of hairs are being transplanted then the surgeon may recommend performing the procedure across two days in which case you would need to return to clinic the following day to complete the procedure.

Hair Transplant Aftercare

A member of our nursing team will call you usually the day following your procedure to ensure you are feeling comfortable and recovering well following your procedure. You will also have been given details of our dedicated on-call nursing team who can be contacted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week should you have any worries or concerns during your recovery time.

You are likely to experience swelling, redness and tightness following treatment in the immediate post-operative recovery period which can take a few days to subside, but you will be provided with medication to help you feel comfortable.

It’s usually recommended to take a couple of days off work, depending upon the nature of your employment and exercise should be avoided for 2 weeks.

You will be required to follow a strict aftercare plan as advised by your surgeon which involves spraying the scalp with a saline solution on a regular basis for the first couple of days following your procedure.

The full recovery time of a FUE Hair Transplant procedure is around 6 weeks but you your final results can take up to 12 months to fully be seen.

Post-operative appointments usually take place at 6 weeks and 12 months where your surgeon will then be able to advise further on how to look after your newly implanted follicles.

Why Choose Us for Hair Transplant?

  • You will be treated by highly experienced Doctors. Our Hair Transplant surgeons are highly skilled in FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and treat hundreds of patients every year.
  • FUE is a minimally invasive treatment (meaning there is no cutting of a strip), and carried out under local anaesthetic – many patients either watch TV, or even fall asleep during the procedure.
  • You won’t require any stitches after your treatment. This means that the recovery time is also reduced when compared to the Strip surgery (FUT).
  • We use the finest instruments, resulting in as minimal trauma to your scalp as possible.
  • Thanks to our advanced skills and techniques, our team ensure that the donor area looks intact after the hair transplant procedure and you can keep your hair really short if you prefer without any obvious scarring.
  • Following treatment, there will be no linear scarring across the back of your head as seen with the strip method (FUT) – you’ll be free to wear your hair long or short.
  • We choose the best follicular unit (a group of hairs), this ensures that only the strongest, healthiest grafts are used for your hair transplant procedure. See our Hair Transplant videos here.
  • Your results will look natural, with denser packing – the hair is implanted in the direction that matches your hair growth.
  • We are one of the very few clinics able to offer the Unshaven Hair Transplant (U-FUE) (the long-hair hair transplant), to those who prefer not to shave beforehand. At your consultation, we will be able to advise you on whether an unshaven procedure is suitable for you.
  • Scars resulting from injuries or previous surgeries can also be corrected. In fact 30% of all patients that come to us have been somewhere before and need further work to improve on a disappointing result. This could be a previous bad hair transplant or we can cover linear scars caused from FUT hair transplants.
  • We treat Afro-Caribbean hair loss, as well as eyebrows, beard and facial hair. In addition, due to the knowledge and precision of our team, we can utilise body hair in hair transplants if you have a lack of suitable donor hairs on your scalp.

FAQs

  • Am I suitable for a FUE Hair Transplant?

    There are a lot of factors that play a part in making a hair transplant successful. Your suitability for a hair transplant will be made during a consultation where your medical history will be taken, a hair analysis will be carried out and you will be able to discuss what your desired results will be from a hair transplant. At this stage your highly experienced Hair Transplant surgeon will be able to ensure it is the right procedure for you. In order to make this decision your surgeon will be looking at your;1. Age – Although there is not really an age limit for a hair transplant, it still plays a role with the best candidates for hair transplants being over 27-30 years old in age. Many younger patients who are experiencing hair loss can be quick to rush into hair transplant procedures to correct the appearance of balding but it is often likely that you will need additional treatment later on in life as your hair loss will still continue naturally. At The Private Clinic we like to wait until patients are a bit older so we can better determine the pattern on baldness to accurately perform the treatment to help counteract further baldness. In the meantime, you may be recommended to have the Tricho Hair Loss DNA test which can help you better understand the underlaying factors of hair loss and offer you a personalised treatment plan to help protect and maintain your healthy hair follicles.2. Donor Area – You must have a good supply of healthy hair follicles available to be transplanted. The donor area is usually the lower back portion of the scalp. At The Private Clinic one of the most important stages of your consultation is assessing your level of hair loss and both the quality and quantity of your donor hair.3. Type of Hair Loss – The cause of your hair loss will also play a big part in your suitability for a hair transplant. The best candidates are those suffering with male or female pattern baldness as typically only affects certain areas of the scalp not the entire scalp meaning your donor area is most likely going to be unaffected. Hair loss conditions that affect the entire scalp such as un-patterned alopecia would not have a successful hair transplant. At The Private Clinic we will only offer hair transplant procedures to those who are suitable as we do not believe in wasting your time or money on a procedure that is not going to give you long-lasting results.4.

  • How many grafts/follicles will be transplanted?

    The number of grafts that you require will depend on the size of the area that is being treated. Your surgeon will discuss with you what look you are aiming to achieve and on that basis be able to give you an estimated amount of grafts/follicles that they plan to transplant however this number can change during the procedure.The total number of grafts used can change during the procedure itself so the exact hair count will then be discussed at the end of your procedure. At The Private Clinic we are able to safely extract 7,000 hairs in one day.

  • How does follicular unit extraction (FUE) work?

    An FUE hair transplant involves taking individual hair follicles from the donor part of the scalp and then transplanting them back into areas of the head that are suffering from male pattern baldness.Donor hair is taken from the back of the head where there is healthy and permanent hair growth. Donor hair from the back of the head is also resistant to DHT which is the most common cause of male pattern baldness.When these DHT resistant hair follicles are transplanted into a new area, they still retain this element meaning that the hair will be more likely to survive and stay unless it was genetically meant to fall out.Hairs that have been transplanted from your donor area are also able to successfully root as they are from your own head. This is why hair transplanted from other areas or even other people will not be possible.To find out more about our successful hair transplant procedures click here to book an appointment with our specialist hair transplant surgeons.

  • How soon will I see the results?

    Patients will be able to see the outline of their new hairline immediately following treatment and the hair will start to grow as normal right away. It is perfectly normal for the transplanted hair to shed again a few weeks after treatment, but after that initial shedding it will grow back strong and healthy and will remain permanently. Results will start to be seen about four – six weeks after treatment with full results being seen between six to twelve months.At The Private Clinic you will be offered a number of follow up procedures where you will be able to meet with your surgeon to discuss the results of your procedure at different stages. During these consultations your surgeon can give you advice on how to continue caring for your newly transplanted hair as well as answer any questions that you may have about your FUE Hair Transplant procedure.

    Excellent treatment guided by Dr.Nicholas Kalavrezos and the Anaesthesia Team led by Dr Martinez. It was mg first time under General A and I wasn’t too excited. From start to finish all the nurses were superb, the room was clean and my food was also yummy. Sometimes it pays to sort your Private Medical Insurance our. The surgery was booked in less than a week after my 2nd consultation. MRSA and Covid Test also were done prior. I can not recommend The Harley Street Clinic enough.Thank you everyone. Regards Monica

    Had a FUE hair transplant on 16 December with Dr Furqan Raja.He and the two nurses he worked with were fantastic!They made me feel very comfortable throughout the procedure and constantly checked in with me. I had 1700 grafts taken from the back of my head and put into the front where I had gone bald either side of my windows peak.It took a bit longer than I thought (about 8.5 hours) but this was due to the high quality, attention to detail and best result they wanted to achieve for me.I had the procedure done at the Leeds clinic but could have chosen Manchester too. I travelled two hours there and back in one day.I am now following the after care information they gave me and also the full kit of products they provided (all included in the price) to help me make sure I look after the new grafts properly.I have follow up appointments with the nurse and access to an emergency on call nurse 24/7 if required. But so far, I have no pain and everything is exactly as described to me in advance of the procedure.I did a LOT of research online and found many of the other national FUE/FUT hair transplant clinics too sales driven and very pushy. Dr Furqan Raja and the team at the private clinic gave me time and space to decide on what was right for me, and importantly they never sold to me but just answered all my questions in a professional, caring and trustworthy manor.This is why I chose them and looking at the early results I am pleased I did!If you speak to other clinics and do your research, make sure you also book a consultation with The Private Clinic. Alex Clair in Manchester was my Patient Coordinator and he went out of his way to help me and gave me lots of free, practical and helpful information up front.Their straightforward, honest and friendly approach was great throughout. Highly recommended Dr Furqan Raja, Alex Clair and the whole team.

    All of a sudden I noticed these veins under my eyes, it was soooo upsetting to see everyday! I didn’t think I could do anything about them. Until I googled and it came up with Harley street and they did removal of under eye veins. I rang the them up and they was so helpful! And from there I was booked in and was so happy to know I can get something done! Everytime I called up nothing was a problem and was always happy to talk to me and answer any questions I had. When it came to the day of the procedure, Marie was so calming and made me feel as relaxed as possible. It was a little uncomfortable but soooo worth it as the results are amazing! Very happy I chose Harley street for the this treatment! Thankyou so much!

    I had treatment with Nurse Marie. She was so kind. The first treatment was rather painful and when I came in for my second round I was very nervous. Marie was so caring, she totally understood and took her time treating. Would definitely recommend.

    Anti – aging treatments with Dr Santa Cruz are a must for me. I have been seeing her for about 3 years now at the Private Clinic of Harley Street. Very knowledgeable and takes before and after photos which have been incredibly helpful when we want to see how much of a difference the treatment has made. I would highly recommend her as her treatments are 100% effective and painless. Also I feel safe with the covid -safe measures they have in place.
