The Elena Prousskaia clinic offers hair transplants in London by certified hair transplant surgeons.
Whatever your age, hair loss can be a significant blow to your self-esteem. Luckily, new techniques and medical advances have given hope to affected people, with millions of successful hair transplants performed around the world.
Hair transplants at Elena Prousskaia’s London clinic are done using the latest follicular unit excision technique, also known as the FUE hair transplant. This procedure provides a quick, safe treatment with minimal scarring, suitable for many hair loss conditions.
If you’d like to take the first step towards natural regrowth of your own head of hair, book a consultation.
Elena Prousskaia is a renowned cosmetic and aesthetic surgeon who worked as an NHS Consultant Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon for several years.
Elena is very proud to be partnering with some of the most experienced and renowned surgeons in their field. Hair transplants at Elena Prousskaia in London are performed by certified hair transplant surgeons, who will guide you through the process from consultation to the procedure itself.
Elena Prousskaia’s London practice is based in the highly regarded Welbeck Hospital, which has been offering plastic surgery since the 1990s. Elena’s clinic at the Welbeck provides a friendly and relaxed environment in Marylebone in the heart of London.
The FUE hair transplant is a tried and tested procedure that all Elena Proussakaia clinics offer.
During this type of hair transplant, the surgeon will remove individual follicles from the back and sides of the client’s head where growth tends to be healthiest. These follicles are then implanted into the areas of the scalp with poor hair growth, typically the front and top of the head. A local anaesthetic is used to ensure as little discomfort as possible before the surgeon makes an incision around each hair follicle.
The entire follicle or unit is removed and preserved at low temperature until the required number has been removed. These donor hair follicles are then individually inserted into small incisions in the scalp. The duration of the FUE transplant depends on how many hair follicles are required to give you the hair that you desire but will typically take between six and ten hours.
Some clients are disappointed to discover that their heads must be shaved before the procedure begins. This is required so that the surgeon can see and remove the hair follicles easily. Rest assured, your hair will grow back quickly and, of course, will be much thicker than before, making the sacrifice worthwhile!
Results will not be instant, but six to nine months after your FUE hair transplant, you will see the benefits of the procedure. The incisions made by the surgeon may result in the tiniest of scars, but these will be hidden as your hair grows back. You will finally be able to wear your hair however you wish. Hats will become a fashion choice rather than a way to hide your hair loss! You will have the confidence to play sport and swim without constant anxiety about how your hair looks when it is wet or messy. Take a look at our fue hair transplant before and after pictures.
One of the significant advantages of the FUE hair transplant is that clients do not need to stay in hospital overnight. When you leave the London clinic after your procedure, you will be given comprehensive instructions about caring for your scalp and be advised to rest for a few days as the transplant areas heal. If you follow the surgical team’s instructions, you should have a smooth recovery process and be able to start your usual activities three days after the procedure.
Like all our clients, you will have a consultation with a hair transplant surgeon at the London clinic to discuss what is best for you and your hair. The surgeon will discuss your hair issues with you, and together, you will decide if the Follicular Unit Excision hair transplant is the appropriate procedure. If the FUE hair transplant could help your hair loss, the surgeon will tell you more about the process and examine your scalp to decide precisely how many grafts you will need.
One of our hair transplant surgeons will be happy to hold a 15-min video chat with you. The video will be free of charge and will be an opportunity for your hair loss to be assessed and for the surgeon to decide whether the FUE transplant is right for you. If you are a good candidate, then the next stage on your journey is an in-person surgical consultation which costs £200.
The length of the hair transplant procedure will depend on how many grafts you require and will largely determine the cost. It is hard to give a typical price until the surgeon has made an assessment. However, the total cost will include the hair transplant procedure and regular reviews for a year.
