Consultation With Dr Kalra

Medical Suitability
Relevant medical history, medication, scalp conditions and previous hair-loss treatment should be discussed.
Treatment Design
Hairline shape, crown direction, graft distribution and the relationship between treated and untreated hair are considered.
Technique Selection
FUE, DHI-style implantation, FUT and selected non-surgical options can be compared according to the individual treatment plan.
Recovery and Aftercare
The expected healing stages, temporary shedding, gradual growth and aftercare responsibilities are explained before treatment.
Hair Restoration Planning
The appropriate method depends on diagnosis, donor supply, treatment area, hair characteristics, medical suitability and long-term objectives.
