What is a hair graft in a hair transplant?
A hair graft is a unit of hair transplantation. It contains a hair follicle that produces hair after transplantation. The graft consists of follicles - usually from 1 to 4 hairs. This is also taken into account when estimating the total cost of hair transplant surgery.

FUE methods hair transplant is done in one session, one day. After it, there are no obvious and typical scars that usually remain after a surgical operation. The duration of the FUE procedure can vary, but it usually depends on how many grafts need to be transplanted. A smaller procedure requiring only about 500 grafts to be transplanted can be completed in a couple of hours. However, a larger procedure with 3,000 grafts will require a session lasting one business day.

When individual follicles are removed, only small, puncture scars remain, which are practically invisible to the naked eye. After the procedure, there is no great pain and discomfort, and the average recovery period is usually up to seven days. During these days, the transplanted hair should not be touched, as there is a risk of accidentally pulling it out. The first four days after the procedure should be especially careful.

It takes time for them to grow in and start forming a new hair shaft. Usually, the first noticeable results are about 3 to 4 months after the transplant. By this time, approximately 15% of all transplanted follicles should have grown. After 6 months approximately 55 to 60% and only after a year the result is considered complete.
